[video=youtube;g53f7MKxLzc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g53f7MKxLzc[/video] Another SFM short by Deviant Pictures Films.
That was pretty cool, and a neat little reminder that metropolice aren't modified at all, and a lot of them become cops just to fuck with people. The idea that there are metros who want to protect the people is really untouched.
That was well-made, I wish there were more HL2-related SFM videos.
Top notch

I really wish they didn't use such a recognizable face for the female civilian
That was seriously great. I like it when fan-made content covers a topic that's relatively untouched by the main subject, HL2 in this case. Gives me tingles.
...I honestly wouldn't mind a series based on this.

IRRC, reproduction was limited in the fact that there was a field set up that repressed the [I]urge[/I] for sex. In other words, Combine made it so no one could get horny.
this is a pretty common portrayal tbh, though it's been a while since anybody's done it i remember back in 2007 when we had a comics section just about every other comic would be about "the good metrocop" and it got really tiring to see all of them but this was really well done
Naw its cool. Recognizing Rochelle and hearing her speak with a white woman's voice wasn't jarring at all. What was I thinking?

[QUOTE=Tuskin;45519382]Erm, they don't get to have children, they just get to have sex. "Non-mechanical reproduction [B]simulation[/B]"[/QUOTE] I googled that, quite an interesting find. The full audio file is "Rank leader - Reminder: 100 sterilized credits qualifies non-mechanical reproduction simulation". In other words, if a metrocop "sterilizes" (kills? beats? who knows) enough civilians, they get rewarded with actual sex. It sounds like if you're in CP and you're under your beating quota you gotta stick your dick in a robot. The combine are fucking weird.

I wish there's more media focusing on the HL2 universe before Freeman arrives, there's so much stories to tell.

Metropolice are literally my favorite part of the Half Life 2 universe. So much untold potential for story telling. I really miss Litfuse Films and their Combine Nation series.
This would make such an awesome series. I'd totally watch it.

EDIT: I think you just invented a whole new fetish for devientart to exploit.
I've always thought that HL2 was a good story for machinimas and such. Really nice video.

If you guys enjoy this I suggest (even though it's a failing gamemode) to launch up GMod and play HL2RP. We need more roleplay like this.

Even back when I played GMOD in 2009, as long as you were a criminal you could RDMing and nobody bats an eye, but as soon as you are a cop and shoot a single criminal you get warned for RDMing because the criminal didn't shoot and kill you first. That applied with the No Metagame rule (when you die you "forget" everything) means that criminals just had to kill you first all the time and there was no action taken.
That was really awesome only thing off that I noticed was that when they first show the room when he opens the door there is only a picture frame on the counter but a few seconds later in the next shot there is a book on top of the picture frame that he moves off. Seriously minor thing most people probably missed but it cough me eye.
My comment on the roleplaying stuff; HL2RP is gone to shit. There are rarely any good servers out there.
