    3. No, its not. You have to use the Portal 2 SDK, as the Auto Save is an object. The Perpetual Testing Initiative is for maps you release for the community, and are meant to be small enough that you dont need auto-saves (As auto saves are mainly used with big maps that have 5 or 6 rooms / chambers) EDIT: You can however upload maps made ...

    Half life wiki speculates that most likely setting of Half life 1 is in May 2003. Portal 1 sets around 2010. Maybe year or two after 7 hour war. Half life 2 and episodes happens around 20 years after first one. That's around 2023. I like to think these as official setting years. Share.

  7. 2003: Half-Life, Portal. 2029/2030: Half-Life 2 (and Episodes), Portal 2. These dates are estimations using information from the Combine Overwiki. The 2003 info is taken from a December calander in Half-Life (Office Complex) and the date is either 2003 or 2008. The 27 years info is taken from the Overwiki, in-game evidence and fan information.

    That is why different versions of games are released for multiple platforms (For instance, a game could be release on PC, Mac, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PS4!) Because of this, you are basically stuck rebuying the game on the proper system if you want to switch platforms. Portal 2 is $19.99 on Steam and most other outlets right now.

    13. This is actually a feature. Here's Portal 2 developer PersonGuy's explanation: Because the game is running 'offline', it doesn't have access to the progress data in Steam.
