[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;20012871]Look at how fast Gordon swings the crowbar in Half Life.
Crowbars are as heavy as shit, no way anyone could swing that thing so quickly.
Also, if I fire a pistol, no way is it going to spread the way it does.
Said a thousand times in the past and will be said a thousand times more: It's a fucking game.[/QUOTE]
Attaching a speedometer to Gordon in the SDK, I found that he runs at about 30 MPH when wearing the HEV suit. If you can do that, you can go bananas with a crowbar.
EDIT: Also, yeah. TF2 is not about realism, at all. There are TELEPORTERS and you're complaining about the fact that he swings an entrenching shovel too slowly?
[QUOTE=AshtonArdoin;20016907]That's really all you think about isn't it?
Bad Reading.
I'm not saying they should change it or anything, what I'm saying is that they probably didn't actually swing it. Or use it.[/QUOTE]
I also think Valve should have tested Rocket Launchers.
Dude, they didn't even come to Brazil to make the research for the MW2 parts on Rio. It's the kind of thing they [b]can[/b] do, but they [b]don't[/b] do it because it won't make [i]any fucking difference[/i].
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;20016088]I'm not saying that they are particularly heavy, I'm just saying that it's too heavy to swing a crowbar this fast

That's about 4 swings a second.
It's more realistic in Half Life 2, though.
The Pipe Wrench from OP also has a realistic swing speed.[/QUOTE]
Black mesa had rocket propelled crowbars as standard issue. They are rated for everything from opening your daily cereal boxes to saving (dooming?) the human race.
I just tried swinging it again, and it turns out, it all matters how you hold it, before I was holding it in the middle unlike what the Soldier does, now I held it at the bottom and it was noticeably slower.
I could still swing it faster but you get the idea.
You can swing it fast because you're holding it with your masturbation arm, that thing's got muscles on it like a bull elephant

When I got to "masturbation" my first thought was that fanfiction about Soldier using his shovel.

My first thought was Left 4 Speed 2.
And what if I said I didn't masturbate?

You'd be lying.
