Brian Damage · Jul 19, 2004

You mean: Feed the Snarks in the "No-Petting" Zoo, swim away from the Icthyosaurs in the aquarium, and run from the Garantua? Cool.

First of all, I may be wrong here, but citing Half-Life is downright stupid. How many animals did you see last time you visited a top secret government facility? Maybe they have a cat named Trevor (he's ever so clever) for company in between missions to alien worlds, I don't know. There are not many animals hanging out in the desert either I'm afraid, during the day, with aliens and air force jets and black hawks around.

Having said that, some animals in Half-Life 2 would fit the scene, but not very many. Animals get scared by gun fire and explosions and aliens and whatnot, in city 17 any animals that were alive would be hiding.

Well you are wrong here, because I did cite it for a reason. More often than not when I see people ask questions here other people get derailed on little details. I was trying to cover all my bases. I missed one base cause I got this guy right here

Anyone confusing Kleiner with Alyx's pet "D.O.G."...?

Brian Damage · Jul 19, 2004

No, Kleiner is supposed to keep some creature called Lamarr, or something like that. Read the last few posts.

I believe you can even see him looking for it in that german vid that popped up a while ago.

What if Freeman had a pet Parrot?

Parrot : "...."
Freeman : "....."
Parrot : "......"
Freeman : "....."

Anyway, yes, i believe we'll see a dog and a cat. and that metal statue horse thing. Or freeman can't be near pets as he is allergic to the fur, thats my theory.

DevgruSeal · Jul 19, 2004

Allergic to the fur? How can he be allergic to the fur if hes in his HEV suit?

Ah, logic occurs once again

lol...

Yeah, the Mk IV HEV suit has one mayor drawback: It can withstand and protect you from -160 degrees, heat, bullet and nuclear waste. But animal fur- forget it!

Doh, so much for that idea

I guess Mr. Freeman'll have to sell his kitty, puppy, and maybe sell his pet snark hidden in his basement, that is hungry.

THey have cats and dogs in England? I thought America was the only country that had these wonderful animals as pets. That is so cool we have allowed other countries to enjoy these creatures.

You can say that again :naughty:

Warrior King · Jul 20, 2004

headcrabbed elephants.......wow

Animals would be cool. Imagine a bunch of dogs fighting against the combine or maybe striders. Biting on their legs and all.

Dead-Inside · Jul 20, 2004

Hah, omg... Headcrabbed animals would own.

You are only allowed as of now. America could take this privilage away from you at a moments notice. So don't abuse it.

I hear Iran is in for it next, saying Bush stays.

I do remember Gabe saying somewhere that animals like crows would react to yoru presence and fly off if they got scared.

Dead-Inside · Jul 20, 2004

Yeah, that's also been mentioned in this thread.

We weren't talking about crows.

Maybe the 62 people to post before you?

There should at least be insects... according to the quote from a CS Source preview:

http://www.csnation.net/articles.php/article_192

Ambience has never been a strong suit in Counter-Strike's various maps. All of that has changed with CS: Source. Helicopters can be heard flying overhead. Birds chirp. CS maps are no longer a series of ghost towns. Insects, represented by tiny particles, can be seen flying about. Smoke and mist float around the map, giving the wind some character. The skyboxes make the world seem endless. The maps seem much more alive. The maps feel as though they're part of a world, instead of some isolated cut-out made for a computer game.

IF THERES NO ANIMALS IN HL2 I WILL NOT PLAY IT!.....

Ah ok...when I first encountered them I was like, "AH HOLY CRAP WTF"

so i sprayed all over them with my ARMP5...:-\

Umm...you dont have the MP5 when you meet the houndeys for the first time

Alix Mcdean · Jul 21, 2004

I'd suspect there wont be much for animals(minus birds) unless its outside City17 limits thanks to the combine. I'd figure they'd outlaw personal pets like dogs/cats and such since they would get in the way and/or be trained to attack. Just seems to fit the atomosphere of the game better IMO.

In the E3 2004 vid we saw what i think are head-crabed dogs (father Gregory (sp?) part). Wouldn't be suprised if we see plain old dogs as well.

I agree adding animals where appropriate would be cool.

Dogs? I don't think they are. If you remember rightly to the pre e3 screens shown in the graveyard. I think they're just a more aggressive zombie. Hopefully they are dogs that's all I can say, zombie dogs, wicked.

Geno · Jul 21, 2004

Hmm, i'd like to see venomous snakes out in the desert outside the city limits, and if you don't watch your step....

*bite*

*vision gets blurry*

*falls over*

*death*
