It's time to catch up on all the Valve news you've missed throughout the week because the ValveTime Weekly News Round-Up is here! In the news this week, Gabe confirms Source 2 and "Ricochet 2" development during a birthday visit, Nexon partners with Valve to publish Dota 2 in Asian countries and the closed Steam Linux beta began. Stay tuned for more videos coming soon.
Source 2 is clearly not news. It's pretty obvious they would be working on a new engine and probly have been for 5 years. Thats how game development works...
"Ricochet 2 has started development" .... How long has it taken for them to develop all of the non-Half-Life games they've been releasing? Seeing as they have had ample time to work concept and design layout, "Ricochet 2" has to be coming out within 2 years. My guess is that next year will be the year that they finally show a reveal trailer (at the very least). Perhaps the reason it is taking so much time is because they decided half way through that they need to build it on Linux and at that point they said "*** it, let's just make a new engine." Just guesses though.
You have a very odd sense of what is news, so I guess we're just lucky you're not on our editorial staff?
