318Mb. Available now. At that size don't expect more than a level or two.

No, Lost Coast is a 330MB or so download. Took me about 50 minutes even on my shitty 1mbit connection.
And here it is on my system, excuse the shite JPG compression:

Here's the PC reccomendation for HL2LC before you download your game from Steam, CPU: 2.2Ghz, RAM: 1GB, VC: DirectX 9 capatible.
BTW, why the hell does it say HL2LC HDR demo?
If you hate it, ignore it.

my HL2LC download was around 330MB too.
Just check 335 to be exact.

It probably says almost 3gb because you don't have HL2 installed.

I think you're missing the point on what HDR is for. Not that bright? Try going into the sun when you've been in a dark room and then say it's not that bright. Never been asleep and someone walks in and switches on the lights.

Speaking from my experience, it isn't that bright. Granted it is very bright and a shock to the eyes going from extreme dark to extreme sunlight, but this "white-out" when I go outside in an HDR enabled game is a little extreme. Especially in some games where it isn't even that sunny out, or you are under a shaded cover.

here are some PROPER lost coast pics using these settings
this engine is damn good but all the commentary highlighted for me was how much work had to be done and done again! I bet it was a very boring task for every1 involved and I don't blame them for it being so short. The AI though is still poor and deffo needs working on

if the link goes down some1 tell me and i'll upload them again.

Yeah, you really notice how poor the AI is after playing FEAR.

no it was always really poor its just on this it seems as if it was turned it off altogether and they couldn't hit me. FEAR AI is hardly amazing if you watched it you'd see set routines as well as predictable reactions.

Well it's the best we got at the moment. I was impressed with it.
