its true! for cencorship reasons, when HL was origonally released in germany, the guards were replaced with robots (the same ones that are playable in HLDM).

but the only thing you need to do to get these robot models (i just figured out), is to change your language to german!!! Just change the language in steam "settings". Youll have to download an update to your HL files, but these can be gotten rid of when you go back to english (or whatever language you speak).

so go ahead and try it! robots ahoy!

(or should i say Gehen Sie so voraus und versuchen Sie es! Roboter ahoi! )
 
I found out this in another thread a few months ago, and its still pretty bitchin albeit a little corny

LMFAO! WOW. Thats where those models are from.
 
heh, first time i've seen the german version. Didn't know you could do that with steam, just changing it to german neither. Pretty cool :)
 
I tried it out just now to see if it's true and it is. The marines are green robots. When you try to shoot a scientist they sit down and shake their head. If you try to blow up a scientist you just fade away. I got screenshots of each.
 
Sorry for the double post but theres an attachment limit so here are some more.
 
Ack, here is the fade away shot!

Edit: Sorry for all the seperate posts but there is an attachment limit.
 
Wow...Thats quite cool.

Although, surely that means Germans can now just change their language and get the normal version :O

well seeing as it was all about censorship in the first place, im sure now no germans really care if they shoot HUMANS in halflife :O

there are probally loads of german mods as well that just change the english language to german, so they just play it in german with human skins.
 
Wow... This proves that the Germans suck ass. Why would they censor a game that is rate M?
 
Counter-Strike also has green blood and the characters sit down like they're playing paintball or something.
 
Damn, robots look cool, I think I'm gonna try it out. :D
 
HAHAHAHAHA the begining tram ride is funny (if you dont understand english). im gonna paly it a bit more and see if they have german dialogue
