And those things do look vary much like combine controlled houndeyes,like the way humans where turned into combine,houndeyes got turned into ... eh combeyes.. ?

Yeah, they look freakin' awesome...Think you could take your gravity gun and flip them over?

Or maybe shoot out one of their legs from underneath them with the gravity gun and have them trip.
 
LET'S DO IIIIIIIIT!!!! YES! EPISODE 2!!!!!!


*cough*
I'm fairly optimistic with this...

And, I though those things were prowlers? No? Okay, I'll stay over here in the corner where no-one can see or hear me. Sorry...
 
Probably have my rig connected up by Christmas, allowing me to buy both episode 1 and 2
 
There are also some antlion grubs in the teaser. We might be fighting the antlion queen in the next episode :p

:LOL: OF COURSE! Nothing funnier than a ministrider faceplanting into the somewhat hard soil that once was fertile.

Wait..Antlion Grubs? What're they?

And refresh my memory, what were Prowlers? Hm..How about cremators? Anybody want to see those?
 
EP2...it will be a lot of new stuff... forests and maby new city, maby another citadell :) it will be great

Going outside WOOT!
It's... unnatural... why, where will the citizen plug in their modems? Where will Gordon be able to surf for his porn?
 
Yeah, that's right, City 17 isn't the only city with a citadel is it?

Maybe VALVe plans on Gordon destroying every City's Citadel. Half-Life 17. Yes. Very many sequels. I can see it now. Saving the world one citadel at a time.
 
Yep. You'll be wiping every city on Earth. What's next?
That proves the Combine have won of taking over the Earth anyway. Either by enslaving, or you blowing up the citadel.

To me that would get boring. Maybe we should change Gordon's reputation to something like; Gordon Freeman: Citadel Raider.
 
one destroyed citadel= one city out :) thats mean most cities will be destroyed because there is many more citadels :) gordon is comming...
 
I wonder how much a twelve piece Fried Hound Eye legs cost at the local fast food resturaunt in City 17?
 
I'll tell you after I go get a fried Alien Controller brain. :p
 
Well the problem is, We need to know what is on the Data thing that Alyx has... Sounds critical, and I think Mossman has died :(

To me this is Gordon's main objectives in the long run, Find a way to wipe out the Combine! (The proper Combine, not the people they have enslaved)
 
1) WHAT IS ON THE DATA STICK?/What did the Combine transmit that was worth blowing up the citadel for?

2) What is the project Mossman talked about?

VALVe did say a character was going to die..Didn't they?

Let's hope Breen is dead.

Alyx?


And I hope Breen stays around, he's and awesome villan.
 
I agree, He did what he thought was right, but now that he hasn't got the comfortable security of the Overwatch and demotivated Citizens..

Breen probally is pissing his pants..

if he is still alive thats it
 
Oh man I'm getting all jittery for December now.

Just think about some of the stuff we might see!

-Mini-Striders
-Crab Synths
-Mortar Synths
-Those other Combine soldiers people were thinking about
-Wasteland
-Another City
-The white pods
-Bullsquids
-Houndeyes
-The other Xen creatures

I hope we learn more about those mysterious Blue Vortigaunts along with the Gman.

What happened to Breen? And what was that transmission!? Excitement to the max!
 
One thing though.. In some Screenies there were Green Combine Soliders with Elite Soliders Pads on.. I would love to know what happened to them.
 
And we have the supposed "Ghost" enemy coming up. Or at least, someone mentioned them in the close run up to Episode 1.

I am dissapointed at not seeing the Synths in Episode 1. The fact that we have never seen them outside the Citadel, leads me to believe they were never released by the Combine. Which means that the City 17 ones may have perished. We can only hope that the neighbouring City 16 released theirs.
 
If Ep2 is the Battle to get the Earth back, what will Ep3 contain? Will Gordon take it to the Combine homeworld? Will he work for Habitat for Humanity, building houses? Or will he be sent to the outer regions to whack all the remaining headcrabs???
 
Wasn't the ''Ghost'' file the Vortigaunts at the start of the game? They were transparent, right? I haven't played the game, just going by pictures.

At about 34 seconds in, when the Antlion Guard is running through those tunnels, theres some sort of pods hanging from the ceiling.
 
Antion grubs :D


Also, I think the transmission is merely an alert to send more troops, so in ep3 I suspect that we will be seeing some pretty damned heavy battle machinerly, it also provides a logical end to ep2 which has to be another cliff hanger.
 
I agree. But I say it was probley "We need the Mothership".
The Combine Mothership is probley going to be in EP3.

This was probally the transmission: "All Combine Forces. We need backup on Earth. City 17 is about to go up in a shockwave. We are blowing up the Citadel in this city to stop anyone from not sending this message. Send the Mothership. Repeat. Send the Mothership. We are stranded and need backup."
 
What is it with the graphics though?
Is it me or do the graphics in the trailer look way to advanced to be the HL2 graphics, they seem photo realistic, especially the out door areas... Weird...
 
Probably not so triet, and the combine have no reason to have a mothership given that they have highly developed teleportation technology and vast citadels elsewhere. It seems more likely that the message will not limit itself to c17 given that there is a "network" of citadels and they are completely cut off from all the rest of the Universal Union which will probably send its "other" technology to the dimension that contains earth.

I still want to know where the hell the antlions came from, but I suspect that we will find out soon enough :D
 
I would be happy with anything as long as they give me a real ending!

In what trailer?

Those are widely believed to be Antlion Grubs. In fact, I believe they were in the leaked HL2 beta. With Valve showing us the early stages of Antlion development, the likelihood that we'll be going into an Antlion nest in Episode 2 is high. The likelihood is also there that we'll see the next-stage of Antlion mutation that was once planned and scrapped in HL2: The Antlion King. I big mother-****er Antlion daddy.

edit: Darn, never jump into a thread at page 6 :p And where is the delete button hiding these days?
 
Quick question: I thought the outside of City 17, and the world in general, was a barren wasteland? Looks pretty lush to me. Oblivion style, even.
