The Rocket

[McCoy]

It seems that in one of the Ep.2 trailers I notcied That Isaac Kleiner had a certain rocket propelled bomb. Could it be that the rocket is for closing the portal, or quite possibly...



COULD THE ROCKET BE FOR GOING THROUGH THE PORTAL TO PUT A MAJOR DENT IN THE COMBINE'S SIDE!?

 

[leib10]

The Combine is too powerful to be seriously hurt by a single rocket.

The rocket is almost certainly for closing the portal storms, as in Half-Life.

 

[Cheomesh]

Who knows?

 

[Tomu]

Yep the rocket is actually a satellite that was created by Magnusson and will be used to close the portal storms so that the combine can't send their reinforcements here and to do that Kleiner and Magnusson will need the data packet to get the right coordinates to disable the portal storms, at least that is what I'm assuming the rocket is all about at the moment.

 

[Tuskin]

I think the rocket has the same function as the one from HL1.

 

[McCoy]

oh yeah i totally remember the events from HL1 *cough* i rushed through that lol. i guess it would've come in handy... (>-.-)>

 

[Omnomnick]

i dont think magnusson has anything to do with the rockets, its just kleiner's creation

 

[Apocalypse89]

It's either a device to stop the super portal from allowing Combine reinforcements through, or it's some kind of transportation that might possibly be used to get Gordon to the Arctic Base for Ep. 3.

I'm also fairly sure that it's an abandoned ICBM that the Resistance recommisioned. I don't think they have the raw resources to build a rocket of that size from scratch.

 

[Omnomnick]

we'll just have to wait and see...

 

[Asknoone]

Satellite rocket.

 

[Tomu]

Well even if Magnusson didn't create it, he was the one to oversee the whole rocket operation and now that kleiner came he is just going to help him, Kleiner isn't in charge of the whole operation it's Magnusson or he was until Eli came.

 

[Cheomesh]

Maybe it's a nuke

 

[heer0]

I don't think a single nuke can even scratch a massive multispace-dimention-wide empire capable of neutralizing all armed defences of an entire planet in a matter of hours... It would be like poking a beehive :cheese:

 

[Cheomesh]

Yes, hence the " ".

I need Al Gore to invent the Sarcasnet.

 

[Narvi]

Heretics. Didn't you watch the masterpiece called Battlefield Earth?

Obviously the Combine dimension will implode if we send just one nuke in there.

Because human nukes are just that awesome.

 

[Omnomnick]

i really doubt its a nuke, its too big and it looks like it has a window on the side, not sure but i think it has

It ruined the planet because their most common gas compound reacts violently with exposure to uranium. They made that point SEVERAL times.

Now that's out of the way, never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, mention that movie again, ever.

The hell?

That makes the bit at the end make even less sense.

I applaud your terrible-movie-detail-remembrance skills.
