HL2 Expansions you would like to see...

[Dalamari]

Post some expansions you would like to see spawn from HL2

I would love a follow up with OpFor and see what they did with Shepard besides leave him on a Osprey

 

[Shuzer]

A side quest where you're the G-Man.. that'd be cool, although, if he's still a mystery after HL2, I guess it wouldn't work too well

 

[Non-Sequitur]

How about playing as one of the Combine?

 

[Vegeta897]

The military is kind of out of the picture in HL2 from what we can see so far, so instead, we will follow combine, or maybe they will finally make one of an Alien's POV, or even cooler, from Alyx!

Or maybe they will make a little thing on what happened during the 15 years of nothing. It could be like a nightmare, Gordon in an endless maze of Labratory hallways, seeing his fellow scientists die, and reliving the terrors of HL1. It would be insanly scary with all the capabilities of the Source engine, but no-one can surpass the dream sequences of Max Payne. Those just rocked the house, and scared me halfway to insanity.

What about HL2 expansion based on the scientists, where all you do to advance in the game is Physics and Chemistry problems.

Half-Life 2: Through The Eyes of a Child

- You play as a child caught in the middle of the invasion (?) of City 17
- You join the resistance
- Eventualy become the resistance leader

Half-Life 2: The Combine

- Somebody already said this, just play from a combine's perspective
- You begin as a low rank soldier, and the more tasks you complete
(i.e: capture 10 resistance fighters) the higher your status goes.
- This could also be used to further explain who the Combine are.

Thats about it for now

 

[mrxskinny]

wow thats like going to school.

Have you played America's Army? Now that's like going to school. :thumbs:

Let's just worry about HL2 itself coming out rather than worrying about expansions.

yes ! :thumbs:

 

[RoyaleWithCheese]

^^^^

meh, it's something to pass the time with, dude


For me: I would like to see a strider expansion, nice to get to blow up buildings and squish people heh

 

[X-FacToR]

Id like something with the military similar to op force... maybe a elite american force killing the half life 2 alien skum.

 

[Brian Damage]

I'd like one from the point of view of the prowler, or an assassiness.

Weurgh... too many esses.

 

[Vegeta897]

Well since Striders are some kind of Combine weapon, and as suggested somewhere else, you might be able to control them!!
That would be insanly cool being that high, and if Valve makes it control realisticly, you could trip over something

Then you're pretty much screwed.

 

[Voodoo_Chile]

I dont think we'll see US special forces judgeing by the fact that it's set in Eastern Europe.So maybe a European special forces team,SAS etc.(Cant remember what the French or German ones are) and I doubt it'll be Alyx as Valve appear to have a thing with mute characters.

 

[DEATH eVADER]

[Victor1]

Blue Shift 2, Opposing Force 2 , and a graphics and havoc update for HL1.

 

[Dougy]

Definately Adrian shepard returning for Op4 2.


Or maybe as a city 17 cop ala blueshift (but longer than 4 hours :/)

 

[Max35]

I'm thinking an expansion for the game will take place in Xen, since it is completely omitted in HL2.

 

[Dougy]

the reason it was ommited is becuase it sucked.

wouldnt make sence to set an expansion around something the fans hate.

 

[Max35]

Maybe they revised it, it could've changed due to human occupation/make it more interesting. But yea I could see why they left it out..

 

[Crushenator 500]

I dont think we'll see US special forces judgeing by the fact that it's set in Eastern Europe.

hey, they jump in everywere else :thumbs: [don't mind me, ive just watched blackhawk down, and the main scene of apocalypse now is on in the background whilst im typing ]

 

[Brian Damage]

If Xen was occupied by humans, you can bet they'd have built bridges everywhere...

 

[Jadewolf5675]

Let's just worry about HL2 itself coming out rather than worrying about expansions.

What? Why?

Its not like worrying about the release of HL2 is gonna change anything, whats wrong with speculating about the possibilities?

 

[Dalamari]

A cool expansion would be that your a soldier that escaped black mesa, then it flashes to City 17 and one of your buddies wakes you up (your still a soldier, fighting the combine) and it would be like BHD, millions of them, a few of you. The levels could be sabotage and you would work with the resistance to stop the combine, and would end with Shepard coming back as the veteran like Freeman is, they meet, and it ends with a giant peace treaty, but it all goes wrong and leaves a open ending until HL3

 

[Gordon'sFreeman]

Im for the Combine Add-On idea. :sniper: :dork:

 

[WillH]

Sheperd must be back, if he isn't i would become angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

 

[Stigmata]

Here are my expansion name and plot ideas.

HL2: Blue Shift -- Barney's pre-City 17 story. He starts out fighting the Combine, then goes undercover in the Combine-Xen war on Earth, possibly helping protecting the civilians under order from the Combine for a disturbing reason.

HL2: Opposing Force -- Shephard's working-for-the-Gman story. You get to go to a less frustrating Xen, and the Combine homeworld as you finish the Gman's jobs and maybe help him lead the Combine to Earth.

HL2: Anomalous Materials -- The Combine expansion. You battle as a Combine soldier, piloting the mighty Combine biomechs. You may discover seemingly insignificant bits of information that will eventually uncover how the Combine arrived at Earth, how the Vortigaunts were freed, and why Earth was chosen over other planets.

HL2: <cool scientific name about something secondary> -- Maybe Alyx or some random civilian battling during HL2. A sideline plot that uncovers more about Kleiner's experiments and the reasons behind where Gordon is sent.

 

[ray_MAN]

Three words: Team Fortress 2

 

[Shuzer]

Three words: Team Fortress 2

That's not an expansion, though.. lol

 

[Pauly]

My 2 expansions i would want are
Opposing Combine (thru the eyes of the combine)
------------------------
And Blue Barney(thru the eyes of barneys story because your not always with Gordon....so you could see whats happening at a different time)

 

[DEATH eVADER]

Not only should they remake HL1 with the graphics and physics system, but remake some of the levels to incorporate dramatic events that lead to HL2. i.e. Alyx's mum getting shot up pretty bad by soldiers, Eli's leg getting crushed under a hydraulic door, we need to see female scientists, chefs, technicians, engineers, VIP's, and a larger variety of character

 

[sabre89]

What a AWFUL idea.

 

[Foxtrot]

I think somthing that happens between HL1 and HL2 would be interesting, I dont care from what persepctive just somthing to fill in the lost time.

 

[mortiz]

They Hunger IV(?) !!!!

 

[mbrithoms]

I would like to see a very cheesy and also very gory mod of starship troopers! that would be fun specially as the decendants of those creatures make a vast appearance in HL2
