Combine Weapon

[olistead]

I noticed in one of the CVG pictures that the Combine soldier was holding some sort of 'shock-stick' - like a baton with an eerie blue light round the top. Any thoughts on whether we might be able to take this weapon? Or, if this has been mentioned already, a link to that thread? Ta.

look in the weapons section of this website

It's a Combine Slim Jim.

Snap into a Combine Slim Jim! Oh yeeeah!

you could probably use it..

 

[Space Cowboy]

I hope you can use ir. I really think Gordon should be getting a more sophisticated weapon than a crowbar. I mean COMON its the future FFS! That stun baton would be an ideal thing to give Gordon.

Possible mod idea: sick sticks from Minority Report *shudders*

 

[slicktick]

If he gets it, he will still have the trusty crowbar, you gotta love the thing no matter how dumbed down it is to use.

 

[Vegeta897]

Duh he will get it, if an NPC has it, you can just kill him and get it.

I hope there will be a cool stun animation on the poor soul we strike.

The weapons section says that the usp match will be replacing the glock from HL1, but I've always thought that the pistol in the first game resembled the Beretta model 92.

Beretta

Stun batons are lame Crowbar forever!

 

[outpost]

Down with stun batons! Vote Crowbar for president/dictator/king/Queen/man on the moon!

Doesn't resemble it in anyway except that it's a black gun

Stop that herecy or I'll crowbar you in a minute sonny-Jim.
Yeah the riot prod would be great fun but would suggest a potential stealth element, and I'm pretty sure they said it wouldn't be the absolute most stealthy of games...

 

[Moejoe]

I love the crowbar as much as the next true half life fan.

But a slim jim is cool too. I'm kinda thinking that if an enemy can use a weapon against you, you can use that weapon against the enemy, ya know what i mean? they wouldn't give a combine a slim jim, then not let gordon pick it up after he's dead, now would they? What would be really cool is like, to be able to pick up the alien slave shockers, i think their wrist thingies enable that.

Why do I feel like saying 'Shocking' in a bad Shawn Connery accent?

Uhhh...actually the Beretta 92 was the replacement model for the Glock in the High Definition graphics pack that was released with Blue Shift and OpFor. In the ORIGINAL release of HL, it was a Glock 17.

It's the future? how do you know? pwnt

It's been (roughly) 15 years since HL1. This is common knowledge

 

[Seraphim]

I thought it was 10.

 

[Lobster]

Let me just clarify that.

Half-Life 1 - Ingame year 200* (Released 1998)
Half-Life 2 - Ingame year 200* +10 (Released 2004)

So that plants the game somwhere between 2010 - 2019

10 Years stated by valve in recent interviews and previews
and 5-6 years between the games releases
