I'd have put Battlefield on my top, but I consider it just to be the next step after Tribes 2.
That said I play it more than anything else combined.

Was apparently in a thread about favorite PC games. Figures that its about Battlefield.
 
Apparently the oldest the board can find...doesnt seem like what my first post would be...

But it is apparently from the day I joined...

The IGN preview had a pretty good description of the aliens (and people) in HL2.

The page is:

It starts near the end of the page, and continues onto the next page.

OK I think I remember trying to post the link properly but since it was my first post I wasn't allowed to post links or something, so it didn't turn out right. It does seem to work now though. :|

i actually beat all of half life 2 only using a crowbar and the grenades, rpg and gravity gun when
you had too a long time ago
theres some places where i was dying reloading dying reloading on and on until i got past certain areas
one strategy i used was carrying a barrel to deflect bullets then pulling out my crowbar to stab
the soldier to bloody death but i managed to beat the game on easy and the easy parts on hard for more of a challenge

So awesome. Maybe it was a sign, back then, that we would become who we are today.

:naughty:

Ok.... lets see now.

Shepard notes in the manual that he saw a "G-Man" talking to his superiors, and watching him during training...

Oh, and I'm not sure, but i think all plot characters are invincible for HL2 EXCEPT when there is a particular sequence (i.e Nova Prospekt (protecting Alyx) or Follow Freeman (Protecting Barney)

Lol, such a n00b. /me shakes his head.
 
Wow, hes the biggest fairy I have ever seen. His hair was just gay looking for a while, but he obsesses with girlish hair and that is where it gets weird...especially when he starts posing. That just gets sick, I stopped looking then.

It was about some hair gallery thread. Wow...I wish I could see what I was talking about.

a mod where you are placed in the situation of an ordinary citizen who is placed in extraordinary situations and you have to work your way out of it. IE in a bank robbery, some kind of natural disaster (hurricane/earthquake) where you have to use AI character interactions to survive as a group. some kind of car chase, take control of a crashing airplane

Excellent idea from 5 years ago, damn that's a long time.
 
God, looking through my old posts I sound like a dick. A grammatically inaccurate dick.

Here's my first post in Newbie Central. I'm amazed that thing is still archived.

Narvi said:
hi, i'm Narvi. Been playing hl2 too long and just learned that people have forums about it.

And here's my actual first post.

Narvi said:
would you mind uploading some screenshots? I can't find any online. Unless I completely misunderstood what hl:source is, it's basically hl1 with source engine, and I want to update the wikipedia articles with the better looking version.

My first post was rather embarrassing. I would rather not post it.
I can tell you, though, that it was when I was afraid to play through Ravenholm and asked this board here for halp. They ended up calling my a girl scout or some shit, it was hilarious. The point being, I stayed. And you guys corrupted me for life. Thanks! :D

p.s. I finally played all the way through ravenholm without being afraid
 
Hey, I remember that thread!

We all laughed at you.

Hahah.
 
I want to read that, I'm going to look for that, sounds like a lot of fun.

The internet does things to your mind. We should all leave now.

Valve Software: Enabling low-violence content for low-violence users.


I wish I could remember who said that.
 
I've just been reading throught the post 'Alyx just doesn't work' and someone said that Gordon is 27 and Alyx is 22, they may have been guessing but does anyone know how old anyone else is? Oh, and about that post, I'm not sure but I think I may have offended someone by saying that Gordon and Alyx getting together would be disgusting because of the age difference. Truth be told I didn't mean it would be disgusting because of the age difference, I just sort of pegged Alyx to be quite a bit younger than she actually is, and Gordon to be a lot older than he actually may be. I thought she was about 19 or 20, and Gordon to be nearly 50. Apologies to that person. Anyway, I was a bit surprised to find that good old Barney may be older than Gordon, well, he does have a bit of white in his hair but I thought that was probably brought on by extreme stress or something. Kinda strange since Barney seems to be the eternal child, and good on him for that. I also wonder how many years there were between Half-Life1 and Half-Life2.

Ahh, pointless discussions.

And, later on in the thread...

And what the hell does "ped" mean? And why are there quotation marks around beer? Beer is just beer. I really hope you are not implying what I think you are implying with that ped thingy. I have a faint idea of what it means.

OH THE INNOCENCE!!!!

Gosh I can barely remember being 14.
 
People should stay 14.


Makes life more interesting.
 
Anyone know where Dr. Freeman went? He was like my forum father when I first joined up. And I haven't seen Shodan in a while.

Hi peeps, just doing the newbie thing and posting in here first.

I'm fairly new to the Half Life series, and have been lurking here for a few days after finishing HL2. (Eventually).

Well, off to posting.

Cheers. :)

First post/thread, back when the Newbie section existed. Meh, I can't seem to operate the search function efficiently enough to find my first few posts.
 
G-man talking to the Administrator?
I can only remember two times when the G-Man appears with another character (though correct me if I'm wrong). Both are at the start of the game.
During the initial tram-ride he is sharing a car with another scientist, and then again once you pass the reception area he can be seen (and heard unclearly) speaking to another, different scientist in a sealed room.
Can anyone tell me if either of these appear again? Do we know if they are generic? Could the one in the tram be Kleiner or Walter?
I have a feeling the lab-coated man he speaks with at length is the administrator. Does anyone else have any relevant information/ideas?

It was starting a thread too!
 
If Nihilianth could die, he probably could be born yes?
Why should that be the only Nihilianth ever? Don't you think that a new one could take his/hers/its place?

Wow... that is such a boring first post now in hind-sight.
 
Does anyone have a clue on what the minimum requirements for Half-Life 2 will be? Will I be able to play it on my Celeron 1,8Ghz, 256MB RAM, GeForce 4 MX 440 64MB (I guess this is my PC's weakest part)?

Then The Dark Elf moved my topic to the hardware section and I apologised for posting in the wrong section. I even gave a title to my post "Apology". :D
 
Seppo said:
I believe that by mid June we'll be playing Half-Life 2. If they're gonna show HL2 at E32004, practically it'll be a finished game. It will allready be going gold. One month after that HL2 is in the shelves. If we won't see new videos in two months from now, then there won't be any, because what would be the point of releasing a new video when the game is almost in the shelves

ahahaah

damn i was stupid back then.

but also precise. now i don't even use capitalization in my posts. screw that, takes too much time.
 
i have to say those formal introduction posts are embarassing. and nobody actually even cares, but everyone will still post something "funny" with a lot of smilies, indicating that the newbie is most welcome to enjoy the warm family atmosphere of hl2.net

bunch of gays if you ask me
