Question about monsters :O ...

Theman2k · Sep 28, 2003

In HL1 there was tons and tons of monsters ... But in HL2 i only saw a zombie hydre and a strider and ant lion :O ....

What in HL2 will be more human like enemis then monsters ? Cause i LOVE tons and tons of monsters :>

Kem2000 · Sep 28, 2003

Well there are a lot of combine soldiers it seams.

eQUIV · Sep 28, 2003

I'm sure there will be an equal balance of both... or most likely more aliens/monsters... simply coz they're more interesting.

Only time will tell. Personally, I look forward to the suprise.

DaLys · Sep 28, 2003

You haven't seen all monsters yet. There will be more in HL2.

toast · Sep 28, 2003

Yeah, they have said that there not showing a lot of the stuff you'll see because they want it to be a surprise. So exciting!

Whezzy · Sep 28, 2003

if rather have more combine aliens alwys have a huge disadvanage

Theman2k · Sep 28, 2003

Monsters > Human
Monsters so own all !!! I hope in the 30th they will give is some media with monsters

DDDD

toast · Sep 28, 2003

I'm wondering what the new media will be, and I'm also really looking forward to the Strider video at a high resolution. I'd like a better look at that distorted blast thing they do.

Brian Damage · Sep 28, 2003

Zombies, head crabs, vortigaunts. Oh my.

I'm looking forward to working *with* the vortigaunts. They're funny.

"DHIGH! DHIGH!"

*ZZZZZAAAPPP!*

*KAPOW*

"Gakkawakkawakkawakka!":x

Yes.

Seeya.:E

GPRT · Sep 28, 2003

i read somewhere, PC GAMER or PC ZONE that there were 50+ but im not to sure :bounce:

AmishSlayer · Sep 28, 2003

I personally like fighting marines or in this case combine soldiers better. I like human-like bad guys the best. Or machines. I love the striders and those flying hovercraft dealies...(forgot the name)

Theman2k · Sep 28, 2003

OMG OMG !!!! 50 + ?!?!?!?!! SUPER COOL

i can't wait !!!!!
GG MAN

BTW
i want to see them !

Tarkus · Sep 28, 2003

can't see the new vortigons!! fighting on our side and everything!:dork:

bate18 · Sep 28, 2003

you must take into account that we havent seen that much of the game at all, what we've seen of it is probably a fraction of whats to come

Brian Damage · Sep 28, 2003

Vortigaunts rock!:E

Anybody heard anything about the possible return of the alien grunts?

There's gotta be some way to get a hive hand.

Maybe they're on your side too.

Hmmm.

Seeya.

:afro:

Tarkus · Sep 28, 2003

didnt the alien grunts have those green thingies that suposedly (?) controled the mind of the vortigons?? if they did, and since the vortigons have been freed, so did the alien grunts, IF they had those green things in neck and arms....

toast · Sep 28, 2003

I wwas wondering about that, because in the video it kills the combine soldier, but I wonder if when the arm comes up it goes for you or Alyx? Also, I wonder if the hydra did attack you if you would see your screen flying everywhere while it was flinging you into the ground / wall / whatever.

Brian Damage · Sep 28, 2003

The hydra. Everybody's favourite big blue tapeworm.:E

I don't know that the hydras and ant lions are even Xen aliens. They could be race-x, combine genetic experiments, who knows. I reckon that the vortigaunts will be teaming up with Freeman because they worship him as the one who killed the Nihilanth and freed them.

Assuming that there was only one Nihilanth.

Seeya.

if it did, i would close my eyes before reaching the water below: water in the games freaks me out

PvtRyan · Sep 28, 2003

I wanna see the new and improved Bullsquid, mean little fella that was :cheers:

About that Hydra, does he grow when he feeds? Because when he grabbed the combine soldier, a new arm suddenly came from below.

commando · Sep 28, 2003

Vortigaunts?????

what is that? picture anyone

ok i have probally seen it but never knew the name

Tarkus · Sep 28, 2003

those aliens that shoot green lightbolts are the vortigons (aka: alien slaves)

commando · Sep 28, 2003

O YEA! man they were cool! annoying but cool. thanks

OMG in HL1 when you had to swin by that bridge that had the garg on it, and there is the icthysaur (spelling) in the water and you have to open that grating god damn that shit freaks me out soooo bad like i seriously have a ****ing water phobia...anytime you have to get in water with an ictysaur i freak out...

Theman2k · Sep 28, 2003

Where can i find picture of the iron dog ?

el Chi · Sep 28, 2003

I prefer to call the Vortigons, Alien Slaves - partly 'cause that's what their real name was (like the real name of the "Tau Cannon" was the Gauss Gun - much better name) and partly because it explains why they're fighting with you this time: They were slaves, made to work (remember the factory when they wouldn't hurt you?) and fight and so when you killed the Nihilanth, you set them free. Therefore, they're working with you now... Huzzah!

Apparently other aliens from HL1 are returning (other than headcrabs, zombies, slaves, bullsquids and barnacles) Which could be interesting...

Cyber$nake · Sep 28, 2003

You mean in the alien factory at the end of HL they wouldnt hurt you? They shot at me like mad...lighting all over...:x

Edit: Im glad people ar getting back to the "I wonder what this will be like" And "What are these" threads, I was getting annoyed by those "OMG VALVE SUCKKS" threads...

el Chi · Sep 28, 2003

In the first room, certainly they wouldn't. Unless, of course, you shot them first...

not28 · Sep 29, 2003

If you provoked them they would get medieval on your ass.

STAFFp18 · Sep 29, 2003

I wonder what the Boss will look like. Imagine Nihilanth coded into half-life 2 graphics... Scary sh!t.

Pressure · Sep 29, 2003

I know who the boss is...

Its FragMaster (The one off the Second Delay Video ).

Now that is scarey.

And rightly so.
I wonder if they had a Union?

I hope the boss is a bit better than Nihilanth... Given the great design of most of the other monsters, they could have done better than an unholy cross between a giant ugly baby and one of the floaty alien bastards...

Mechagodzilla · Sep 29, 2003

I want to see what this guy does.
They left him out of the first game and now he seems to be back.
With a funky scorpion tail.

The text on the original concept says he has psychic attack powers and can deflect missiles with his mind.

Pressure · Sep 29, 2003

Theres a monster in my HL manual that I don't think made it into the game.

Pages 20-21 for those who have the same one as me.

Heh, I was looking for that when I first played HL1. Too bad they left it out. I'd love to see it shoot out it's mouth thing ('Alien' movie style) and grab a soldier.

UndeadScottsman · Sep 29, 2003

The "Kingpin" as it's called is actually still in the Half-Life pak file. (It looks like the new concept art though, not the old one, which is too bad since the older one looks more alien IMO)

The critter on page 20-21 in the Half-Life manual is actually an extremly early version of the Gargantuan. (Look at the middle limbs, the back legs... they're so much alike.. The partially obscured word "Gargantua" at the bottom of page 20 adds a bit of credence to that theory as well

Sincerely,
Jeremy Dunn

JonTheCanuck · Sep 29, 2003

do you guys think gargantuan or maybe the itchyosaurus (correct spelling?) will make a return... i remember the itchy scaring the poo out of me in hl1 for first time.... imagine it in hl2, gargantuan would be pretty sweet too
