What would you put in if you were on the dev team of HL2?

I'd add a net gun of some kind. Or a glue grenade.

If it had fluid dynamics, I'd put in a watercannon.:cool:

Post yours. Perhaps Gabe is watching...:cheese:

EDIT: And a VGUI2 GPS tracker would be neat...
 
a hand, for picking things up with, throwing things, moving stuff around, pushing stuff out of the way and so on

simple but effective :)
 
How about a sonic grenade, then, that renders them deaf? Throw one, then sneak up behind them as they furiously run towards where you last were.

PS: I reckon HL2 will have a flamethrower. The flame effects are too good for it not to.
 
It begins with, "If you can read this"...

EDIT: A boomerang would rock. The real weapon boomerangs don't come back, though, usually on account of being stuck in something's ribcage.:E
 
I know but it used only for smashing ROKS and Stones.
 
Actually, there's a research team working on a sustained sonic beam weapon. It's supposed to be used for crowd control, but simply upping the power could create a resonation cannon, able to shake anything apart.
 
No they are real and they are being used by the US Special Forces. They are called EARs and I forgot what the ancronym means. But, anyway they work like flash bangs but are less dangerous.
 
A Harpoon.

You could go and play whaling with that flying manatee thing.

yep :)

hey how about one of those thumpers they use to summon a worm to swallow up the bad guys, now that would be cool, stood there with this absolutely huge worm ahead of you, hey maybe ride it and finish levels in seconds lol. I want that as a weapon :):)
 
Being able to summon some kind of giant worm would rule.

I still think that the Strider-riding idea is cool.

I giant mech you could hop into and ride around would be awesome... hmmmmm... idea for one of my mods...

if you do a mech, make use of that VGui thing and have real controls in it.. and hands to use them with hehe

a mech game would be great though, shrink everything so the maps can be bigger and have huge mechs running around ruined cities.. like mechwarrior basically.. only better heh ;)

hey, your mech's vs my worms lol.... ok maybe i should rephrase that haha your mech's vs my SANDworms, there :p
 
Mech with Havoc physics... get me a towel, I'm drooling. Imagine being able to pick up and throw rubble and use a girder as a club...:E

How about a tazer gun?
 
[|# %0|_| (4|\| |234|) 7|-|[5, \/\/|-|0 6[\/35 4 5|-|[7?

means

if you can read this, who lives for shit?
 
no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no

the best kinda thing would be able to walk up t oa jeep or something and rip the gun off then carry round a 7 tonn gun off a tank

mwahahahahahahahahahahahaaha...
 
No, I just figured it out.. It means "If you can read this, who gives a shit"
 
A picture of me.

everytime some1 shoots it a giant foot crushes them and "you just got owned by Dougy" voice plays.
 
How about a weapon that allows you to morph into any HL2 monster, gaining all their moves and abilities and stuff..
 
how about a grappling type weapon that shoots a cord out and stick into whatever it hits and then allows you to swing around on it, climb up it by realing in the cord, or lengthen the cord by letting some cord out of the weapon.. maybe even attaching to other monsters or players and then be pulled by them or you pull them to you..
 
i wouldn't mind some sort of slingshot to play around with. maybe bust a few windows and poke someone's eye out. it's more fun than it sounds believe me i've tried.

i'd like to see some sort of mind control device, whereby you can 'convince' an enemy to fight by your side. Jedi Knight had a similar system with the 'Jedi Mind Trick'. it might work quite well, but i suppose they've got the pheromone for the antlions so something too similar would complicate things.
 
I'd like to see Gordon carry a PDA, containing X-COM-esque data files on the aliens, the combine and their weapons. It would deepen the plot like you wouldn't believe.
 
how about a small round sphere that you throw out and when you turn a swith on a device, it turns on some mini-gravitational pull, causeing anything close by to get pulled towards it.. *imagines lots of headcrabs getting pulled towards it and get all stuck to it..* i dunno.. maybe thats not a good idea..
 
A black hole gun, with extra special stretching effects. Watching objects bounce along and get sucked into the hole would be awesome. Any smoke or fog in the area would get sucked in too. This was briefly touched on in Unreal 2 but only in the last, disappointing level.
 
Um... holy shit. I pretty much made the post while you were finishing up yours... Thinking on the same lines at the same time. Yes, a "gravity pull gun" would also be sweet. Anything that pulls a load of objects into a central point would look good.
 
hmm.. maybe have it a one time use per sphere, and have a limit on the amount of time it is turned on, so then when the force dies out, all the objects fall into a large pile and any monsters would have to like climb out/off of it and stuff, lol...
 
I want a minigun that shoots killer bees, but instead of stingers they have subatomic needles that split your atoms, and then your subatomic particles split, and then you start to melt like the Wicked Witch, and it hurts so bad you die, come back to life, and die again. THEN you explode.

[Edit: and the bees are laser-guided.]
 
Yeah, a VGUI2 PDA would kick ass... and when you activate it Gordon's hand holding the stylus could be moved around with the mouse.

I would also like to see:
* an X-Ray type thing you could hold up to a wall to see through it and when looking through it the player models would be replaced by skeletons.
* A box of tacks to use against vehicles with inflated tires and people on foot.
* A physically-simulated mace (not the spray).
* A working PEZ dispenser... for no reason other than to see how Havok handles it.

Yup. Very nice idea... And the alternate fire could be the black hole. :cheese:
 
i want a lazer that lock a target and make a satellite fire an ion canon ^^
 
a Whip type of weapon could be interesting..
a chainsaw could be fun too..
maybe a remote control car with a bomb and Camera attached..

And would the alternate fire on that one be an airstrike? :)
