[@rayexception4590]

This beta had a lot of Portal 2007 stuff leftover, notice how there's the Portal 1 Holding and walking animation for the portal gun and how the Curiosity core is being used as a place-holder

[@mineland8220]

It looks like it was using portal 1/hl2 version of source instead of the l4d one. So that's probably why, although they did ended up with a somewhat similar crosshair to portal 2's rather than the more useful portal 1 crosshair

[@Crrrow]

From what i've researched on the Internet F-Stop was a Portal 1 Prequel set in Aperture Science sometime in the early 1980s at the time the game took place Cave Johnson had just been uploaded into a supercomputer inside the facility and was to be the main antagonist of the game. the games testing element would involve a handheld camera and robotic mannequins being observed by human scientists, As the game progressed the test subject would encounter a giant chicken which judging by some textures were the result of Apertures staff taking a nab at bioengineering animals to solve world hunger. Towards the middle point of the game Cave would begin to dread his existence in this new computer body and blame his corporation for doing this to him. It's not known what the games climax would entail but my hunch is the player would engage Cave Johnson in combat in a battle similar to portal 1 but with the camera device they would destroy him and save the Aperture Science staff from the Robotic mannequins which Cave seemingly "Corrupted" ((My evidence for this is an animation reel found to be made by one of Valves animation people which shows one of these manaquins doing four walking animations.)) The portal 1 beta portal gun was also supposed to cameo being used by one of these robotic mannequins in a test chamber when the player was to explore Apertures offices and interact with some human scientists. My guess is at this point in development GLaDOS was constructed after Cave was destroyed by the F-Stop protagonist to replace him presumably to take out the "Human" factor of the AI and make it more rational and logic based.

[@Zorklis]

I'm still wondering what's Fstop, is it like time travel gadget

[@MrDarren690]

Zorklis F-stop seems to be a fourth dimensional manipulator. Notice how the states of the objects changed when the F-stop was activated? These objects could be fourth dimensional objects sliding into three dimensional space and as such, change form.

[@MrDarren690]

Alternatively, F-stop could just be an object transformer. In photography, f-stop is a measure of how large a camera’s aperture is. Change the f-stop, and the composition changes too-it’s most prominent when dealing with lighting effects on the subject.

[@turtleperson3538]

@@MrDarren690 so we might have been thinking with lights rather than portals.
