Portal 2

[EC2151]

So I need some spoiler free help with the last boss.

I keep on trying to get the bombs to come at me (to the designated spot to kick off the fight), but no matter what I do the shield remains up high hitting all the bombs as they're fired.

I've tried all sorts of ways of getting the shield to face another direction, but no dice. Anyone know what I should be doing?

Try shooting the bomb from a location where the shield isn't blocking.

have you tried thinking with portals

[Nabeel Ansari]

have you tried thinking with portals

Silly Bleck, portals won't get you through this game.

[psychowolf]

i try not to.

i think i'd blow a few blood vessels in my temples

[EC2151]

I am talking about before that sweet lunar sediment even comes out of the tube (before it breaks). The pre-fight. The shield just remains up, and the bombs keep on hitting it. instead of the tube.

I should have clarified.

[Kenogu Labz]

Maybe you should wait to think with Portals until Portals are actually useful.

[EC2151]

I think it's a glitch, because I keep on standing behind the tube, and the shield is still up.

EDIT:

It was a glitch. I had to restart several checkpoints back before things were working normally.

Now I am done.

Kind of an abrupt ending, in a way.

[XeroZohar]

I felt the urgent need to share this.

[XeroZohar]

So real it's SOREAL

Special thanks goes to Barracuda, for helping me with the script.

You be the judge.

Whaaaaaaaat on earth. Just heard 'Ghost of Rattman'. How bizarre can you get. I mean, a bit fitting I suppose, but weeeeeeird.

I concur.

Okay - SPOILER THEORY BELOW******************

In white...

Does anyone else here think that Chell may be Caroline/GlaDOS' daughter perhaps fathered by none other than Cave Johnson himself?

****END SPOILER THEORY****

Someday I'll learn me some spoiler-proof techniques...

[Gollgagh]

that's a pretty popular theory actually

[LuckyXIII]

I mean, it makes sense doesn't it? Consider the evidence:

- Chell's potato project - she's clearly a daughter of an Aperture Science employee

- GlaDOS/Caroline letting Chell go at the end; why??

- GlaDOS says she deleted Caroline, but then in her own song she mentions how "Little Caroline is in here, too"

- the song sung by the turrets, when translated sounds like a song being sung from a mother to a daughter who's departing

I confess, the OCR forums are pretty much the only ones I contribute to, albeit moderately, but on the Combine over-whatever wiki I didn't see the idea present among the bits I read. Not trying to contradict you, Gollgagh, I just haven't seen it presented anywhere else (again, I don't "get out much" when it comes to other forums though).

EDIT:

Mkay - googled it - it's all over the Steam forums. Heh.

[LuckyXIII]

So, I dunno how to do screengrabs from a 360, but the potato project that's about 3 from Chell's is "By Alix" - it says, "ELECTRICITY??! FROM A POTATO???!!!?" And has a bunch of hearts under it.
