I have an idea... next time you think valve has released something that could be considered a spoiler, check to see if they actually did say it (they didn't).

 

[EVIL]

well if you notice in the bink videos, the crowbar is no longer the hyperspeed blender it used to be. its a lot slower now so you might have to rely on better weapons for administering beatdownz

Yeah .. it appears that MR freeman is getting a bit to old for the ADHDstyle crowbar swinging.

 

[Mr-Fusion]

How about a fire extiguisher, good for purring out fires, good for an over-arm attack

That's a good guess! And yes they are useful for putting out fires!

Vulcan neck pinch?
Eye poke?
Foot stomp?

The above could all be handy unarmed combat moves. As far as weapons go I'd like to see something a little more "in" with the environment. Something that you would expect to find in a post-invasion world. There would be plenty of bludgeoning weapons, like baseball bats but I'd hope valve would surprise us with something we've not even heared of and couldn't easily guess at. A gift from the G-Man perhaps? :O

 

[Brian Damage]

Having spoiler tags does not mean we condone beta spoilers, it's for legitimate information only. --Pen

 

[slicktick]

Laz, thats beta stuf and your not allowed to post it, stop posting beta stuf!

 

[Lobster]

Spoiler overload me thinks.

 

[moppe]

Whatever the rules are, that is stuff from the leak.
Seriusly, ban him.

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

I have seen him post spoilers from the leak in other threads too.


Me no like!

 

[Chris D]

How did someone manage to post with a Guest account?

 

[manny_c44]

Gasp! Laz must be the source code hacker!!!

 

[EVIL]

lol.. scary shit .. I never seen any guest accounts on this board.

 

[Laz445]

Humm

Stop trying Laz/Zakat/whoever you are.

You've been warned and banned - stop re-registering because I can assure you we can ban your accounts a lot quicker than you can make them.

 

[Varsity]

I have a feeling that we may not have the crowbar too much in the game.

Heretic! The crowbar will be used for loads of things, not least zombies.

Slightly ot, but to zombies have a proper name, like headcrab-monsters or something?

 

[XenoSpirit]

just because you put spoiler tags doesn't mean it's ok to post stuff from the leaked beta.

asshat.

 

[slicktick]

I'm hopeing for a lead pipe, then I'll go around and go Clue style on all the combine's asses.

 

[marty905]

its not from the beta...its in the pc games magazine

 

[XenoSpirit]

just because you put spoiler tags doesn't mean it's ok to post stuff from the leaked beta.

asshat.

that was the whole reson FOR the spoiler tags

 

[slicktick]

No the spoiler tags are for officially released info that people dont want to know, thats just coming out now, that has to deal with storyline, and for when the game comes out and poeple talk about what is in the game. BETA information is still not allowed.

 

[Direwolf]

No, the spoiler tags are for spoilers. While one of those has been revealed, the other hasn't.

Files from stolen builds of all titles

In the words of Rick Ellis, Senior Software Engineer at Valve Software: It's illegal. For those of you that aren't aware, we do not want our web site associated with any sort of illegal content, whether that be stolen or leaked. This includes screenshots, source code, models, maps, textures.

We would also request that you do not post information specific to any stolen builds including file names, and other bits of information that haven't been officially released.

These rules extend to all games, not just Half-Life 2.

The stolen build contains information not currently intended to be common knowledge.

Ha! I could be wrong, but maybe Valve want us to use a different weapon and love it just as much as the crowbar, and then we can use them both simaltaneously in HL3!! (Ok, lots of ifs and buts but a nice theory!)

I strongly expect the crowbar to still be there! Be at peace my child! :thumbs:

[GEORGE JEFFERSON] "The lead pipe; in its day, it was a weapon of mass destruction!" [/GEORGE JEFFERSON]

 

[slicktick]

HA! wow somebody actually noticed my post, and i agree, mass, MASS destruction!

/slicktick laughs insanely

 

[Rupertvdb]

That video where the zombie gets clubbed with the crowbar looks sooo good! The reaction and the movement is just spot on with...how i would...imagine...a zombie...to.........re...act.....ummmm.

Anyways, i hope they don't add any other melee bits, or if they do nothign too crazy because the corwbar can not be allowed to become redundant!

 

[XenoSpirit]

we need somekinda energy sword so hack and slash zombies to pieces... that make a great weapon

 

[Rupertvdb]

but that would be tooo good and so the crowbar would be redundant...no, i want to keep the crobar and using standard bullets, nothing better than beating something to death or using the magnum to absolutely annihalate some zombie.

 

[XenoSpirit]

haha i can jut see myself with an m249 spraying zombies with raw ammo... cant wait for that graphics upgrade soon

No, the G-Man's tie. Read the post above mine for context.

1st stage: Maw Man.

2nd stage: Gonome.

 

[slicktick]

Wow, I never really took the time when I first played to learn all the real names, i had wierd names for them all like "chickens" for headcrabs and i actually called the zombies "slaves"
Then i found out about this thing called the internet and found out all the real names, yet i didnt know about the zombies real names, was that from OpFor, i need to play it again sometime.

 

[Brian Damage]

Heheh, my ol' pal, who was a real HL freak (If he was a real internetty person he'd be here every day), used to call them "Chickens" at first...

And I think that the real names have eventually filtered out from VALVe via concept art in magazines and interviews. Probably HL game guides, too...
