Some ”can’t even run” on mid-end PCs. Valve has talked with some modders, possibly even ”working with them” after Left 4 Dead 2.
”One of the problems now when you look at a lot of the mods that are made is they can’t run on low-end PCs, they can’t even run on mid-end PCs often - they can only run on high-end PCs. They can’t run on Xbox 360,” Faliszek told CVG in an interview.
”There’s a lot of work we do to get things to the performance levels that are acceptable for us. You look at a lot of the modders and obviously that’s a very technical thing; you have to know the engine and the tools very well.”
”We’ve talked with some of them about that issue, we’ve talked about maybe working with them, maybe after Left 4 Dead 2 comes out.” The idea of mods released for Xbox 360 titles has always been there, even with developer Epic for Unreal Tournament.
”The coolest thing we could ever do would be to take something that was made by the community and share it with everybody - including Xbox 360 owners. How that happens and what work needs to be done is a little bit complicated.” Think it’ll happen?
