easter eggs

The reason there is no russians in city17 because of the 7-hour war. It destroyed major cities and the combine took over. When they took over city 17, they most likly took all the russian citizens and turn them into stalkers, and their fighting force. Since United States was destroyed, many American immigrants came to Russian area because it was not destroyed or filled with waste. Basically the safest place to go.

Then the combine slowly taking the citizens into their force.. and that is why their is hardly any russians or even a russian in city 17.

2. on that same bulletin board is a drawing of "uncle Kleiner" which is signed by Alyx--obviously this was drawn when she was much younger.

Pretend Alyx made the picture recently, look at the picture, then think that she may be mentally challenged. Now laugh. :dork:
 
Did anyone think that different chapters of the game are set in different locations, i mean its all based around c17 but it dosnt mean that its all based around 1 place...
 
Its not in russia.
And why does he think that you say!
Because there are buildings like those in the game here in sweden,
and the gas pumps are from sweden cause krona is our money and the way the pumps looks tell me so. :thumbs:
So thats it SWEDEN.

Here's an interesting "easter egg": At the train station there are schedules with all the incoming and departing trains listed, and where they're going. There's a C13, a C16, and I believe a C22, among others, but there's no C14. But there's a guy who talks about City 14 in the station...so why are there no more trains to or from there?

Maybe it got destroyed...
 
Keep this thread bumped, my God, I tought I was good with details...........
 
I have FOund A REAL easter EGg

I saw G-Man Walking behind some trains....as soon as you come out of the mines, go all the way down, past the snipers tryin to kill you, and when you get to the fencing...well...keep goin and there are trains on their sides...if you look thru a spot or gap between the trains, you see the back of G-Man, I only got a quick glimpse of him and he walked off, I tried to look for him agin but he was gone...I am goin to try and go back here in a few and try to get a pic of him...it was pretty coo, but that is a real easter egg...Those other things are nice too...but...MINES BETTER!!! hehe, I will try and get that pic...But SEARCH FOR G-MAN!!! HE"S OUT THERE!!!
 
lol yea Mase384.. You actually find him 10 different times during the game ;)

HAH ok...I found him...G-Man...with the help of noclip...(dont worry I beat the game without cheating) but I came back, and I saw him, and I took pictures...I used no clip and got all up in his grill and took pictures but they are too big of files to put on here, but I put the pictures of where you can see him without no clip, AND please tell me where I can find him the other 9 places...THanks

cool... though I only saw 5 G-man sightings throughout the game.
 
One thing my brother pointed out to me that I never noticed is that the Combine take your buggy after you have to leave it. It's attached to the underbelly of one of the dropships, and it flies away as you go along the cliffside path.

It was definitely a "Whoa, that's sweet!" moment for me.

You will find your answer in building blocks final......
 
Has anyone else seen a watermelon in Team Deathmatch? It was on top of the building on Overwatch.

I remember that too... though it makes me wonder... why did they take it anyway? :rolleyes:
 
I think the two most interesting G-Man sightings are probably 9 and 11. 9 because it shows him interacting with other people and so this really complicates his involvement in things; 11 because... Well, why on Earth is he in a small boat with a sodding crow on his shoulder? The strangest pirate ever.

dahahah, I've never noticed that before even though I must have looked at that picture both times I Played HL2 and a few times in forums ;)
 
Whats fun is to use the noclip to move around the world. It's interesting to me that valve uses realtime ai scripts in hidden sets on each map every time there is a cutscene or a video playing in the monitors.

3. and the best one yet: on the dam in water hazard is a small grate with the letters "SPQR" printed on them. For those of you who do not understand the significance of these letters, allow me to explain. SPQR is an allusion to the Romans. During the empire, the Romans printed SPQR on just about everything. In latin, it stands for senatus populusque romanus. In english, that literally means "for the senate and people of Roma." It was intended to promote unity in the empire between the plebs and the politicians. And why is this an easter egg? Because City 17 is located somewhere in Russia, which the Romans never conquered, and it is printed on a rather modern device that the Romans never possesed.

There are plenty of these manhole covers in Rome, and they have been made relatively recently. They are not exclusivley from ancient Rome.

Yes, those are form WWII Mussolini period, not in ancient Rome as such.

Alyx's actress is hotter than alyx.

You called it Easter Egg? Oh, hell.
Yet I wish to know a bit, can you upload the picture of the actress? :p

It's the same kind of a surprise as with an easter egg when you see the actress behind Alyx in the Raising the Bar. There are some pics of her, I don't remember her name... But you can take my word for it.

I saw her in an episode of Third Watch. She plays a hot dog vender/hooker.


...and that's all I'm gonna say.
 
AJ Rimmer said:
Pretty much the same thing as a regular hooker I'd imagine.
with hotdogs? gives a whole new meaning to the phrase 'you want mustard on that' :LOL:
and yes I was also suprised by Raising the Bar - the actress is much better looking than Alyx...odd considering how spot on the other faces are
 
Yeah it's weird. Mossman doesn't quite look like her real-life counterpart, but she's sexy and beautiful. But Alyx, well... just ok. Is it because they didn't want to have a typical lead female character?

theres one rebel who metions "i cant get this tune outta my head" and he hums it. I think its at one point only. And Barney goes "can you hear that dog bark, it gives me the creeps" as he opens a giant combine gate for you at anti-citizen 1
