Something I noticed while playing through

[Atomic_Piggy]

On Red letter day, in Klieners lab by the door, there's a teleporter, I'm sure your all aware. Anyway, I was just messing around with it when ALyx told me to be careful. I kept pressing the two bottons that teleport it and it began to take longer to appear. As I continued the occassoiunal spark of green lighting shot out. By the end, the whole thing exploded and the cactus pot winked out of exsitance!

My apologise if this has been said before, but I searched and there was nothing. Good day.

 

[Jintor]

Woah!

You mean it just explodes?

 

[Azner]

Yep I did that too before. But my cactus did'nt dissappear.

 

[Asknoone]

Never done that before. Cool.

 

[ríomhaire]

I was messing with it before. If you toss a grenade in you can teleport it before it explodes (this breaks the the teleporter though). Also, you can **** it up by putting too much stuff in it.

I teleported a huge file cabinet with that thing... It sploded... Made me cry. ;(

 

[Naudian]

Cool, I don't recall ever seeing that happen :O

FINALLY, a "have you noticed" thread with something new! gratz piggy

 

[Higlac]

Wow gotta try... I feel an urge to play gmod now. I wonder how many explosive barells will go through?

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Has anyone noticed the piles of garbage in City 17 have half-empty and empty injection needles here and there?

 

[ríomhaire]

Nope. Do you have a screenshot AJ?

 

[Adrik_Senturu]

Ha I remember doing that when I first played through. I just did the plant at first, but than started sticking books in and what not till it blew up on me D:

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Nope. Do you have a screenshot AJ?

I used to, and I think I even posted it here but no-one was interested

They're on the ground at the start of the canals though

Check out the "Half-life 2: Done Tricked" video sometime. They did about 7 of those small filing cabinets in one go.

Aye, I was scared it was old thogh. D:

 

[Narvi]

Hey, I never knew it could explode. *Feels the need to play level again.*

 

[Rapstah]

The flower pot dissapeared?

Does anyone else smell a Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy gag here?

 

[ríomhaire]

Oh no, not again.

 

[Iron Kat]

At least it'll make the chapter more interesting!! I usually find 'A Red Letter Day' pretty boring!!

 

[Wanted Bob]

Now maybe we know what happened to that cat...

 

[Higlac]

OH NOES THE CAT ESPLODED?!?!?!?!!1/

 

[CyberPitz]

OH NOES THE CAT ESPLODED?!?!?!?!!1/

Hey waki!! Lets go teleport!.....

 

[Higlac]

We did that remember? It zapped us outside.

But I wonder, what happens if you stand on it?

Ooo... now that is something worth trying...

But would you be able to push the button?

And what would happen if it exploded???

 

[Higlac]

Ooo... now that is something worth trying...

But would you be able to push the button?

crouch maybe, or open it in gmod with a friend and have him press the button

And what would happen if it exploded???

you die

 

[Wanted Bob]

you die

Lol, you're right that is probably the most likely thing that would happen. Either that or nothing happens to you.

EDIT: I loaded Red Letter Day up to test it, and while I could make the teleporter explode (using the spare monitor worked best for me) I couldnt get Gordon to teleport through. However, it is possible to hit the button while you are on it, so maybe someone will have better luck than I did.

 

[Hullu]

that happened the first time i played hl2.
