[QUOTE=Nori;17217789]The AR2 is powered by the same technology that the core was in Episode 1. Dark energy cores to be specific, which can be seen powering various things and shooting from your AR2 rifle on alt-fire.[/QUOTE] Its like shooting mini-suns at people
wait when does barney die? I never remember hearing about it or anything? He gets away on the train. I don't remember.
[QUOTE=BlueSaint;17220179]wait when does barney die? I never remember hearing about it or anything? He gets away on the train. I don't remember.[/QUOTE] He leaves on the train, THEN THE FUCKING TRAIN EXPLODES
OH. I never saw that. damn I should have watches barney and not the strider or what ever elss I was occupied with.
[QUOTE=Keychain;17152614]I'm glad no NPC's use the 357. Its world model is horrific.[/QUOTE] Maybe that's why the world model is horrific.
[QUOTE=Beau Phos;17152207]Thanks for pointing this out [editline]01:12AM[/editline] Explain Half Life 1.[/QUOTE] hahah wow dumb shit its a science facillity they wont have weapons there
[QUOTE=Swimbound;17220713]He leaves on the train, THEN THE FUCKING TRAIN EXPLODES[/QUOTE] And then everything is quiet [b] AND THEN A HUGE FUCKING DINOSAUR EATS THE TRAIN AND THEN IT EXPLODES AGAIN AND THEN IT GETS INCINERATED BY A GIANT FIRE BALL FROM SPACE [/b]
[QUOTE=exhale55;17221867]Maybe that's why the world model is horrific.[/QUOTE] But the crossbow's world model is pretty tolerable. Can't say the same for the gravity gun, though, and there's even a scripted sequence where Alyx uses it.
[QUOTE=Username?;17188883]With the Revolver, I didn't really mean better as in more powerful, I meant that they were more modern and more practical in most situations. Besides, don't the Combine already have a sniper rifle? Anyone care to explain where the grenade comes from when using the SMG's alt-fire? :smugdog:[/QUOTE] Yeah, but the combine's sniper rifle can't very well be used while jumping and running, can it?
The Crossbrow struck me as more of a homemade weapon that you pick up along your journeys, why there's ammunition seemingly designed for it I don't know. And why would you run up to any combine and beat their face in with a crowbar when you have this perfectly fine SMG with enough ammo to last a year?

[QUOTE=exhale55;17221867]Maybe that's why the world model is horrific.[/QUOTE] If NPCs were meant to use it, then Valve would make a better worldmodel, you silly wabbit [editline]12:49PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Squeaken;17192370]Stunstick>Crowbar.[/QUOTE] HERETiC !!!
I've read what some NPCs say when you die, and one of them is "Someone get his crowbar." I mean seriously, what the fuck is with the crowbar? It's worshipped or something, and the odd thing is, there are no other crowbars in the game. You'd think at least 1 or 2 civilians made use of crowbars in the rebellion, considering they're a common item in real life.

[editline]12:20PM[/editline] [QUOTE=BudakCiner;17192382]Probably because if you were faced against these 3 weapons, you're fucked. Crossbow : One shot kill, you're pinned down. .357 Revolver : Pretty strong damage, you'd be fucked playing against that. In real life, it's a rare weapon. Crowbar : They already have their stun sticks in use. Plus, what modern soldier runs around beating people with a rusty old crowbar? I don't know how to put it why rebels prefer not to use it. Anyway, I tried spawning NPC's with these 3 weapons and it never works. They were not programmed to handle these particular weapons.[/QUOTE] Actually, I tested it in Garrysmod, and I have seen Alyx use a gltiched .357 once, and Rebels, Citizens, Refugees, Metrocops, Barney, and Alyx can use crowbars.
[QUOTE=Gmod_Fan77;17264362]Actually, I tested it in Garrysmod, and I have seen Alyx use a gltiched .357 once, and Rebels, Citizens, Refugees, Metrocops, Barney, and Alyx alike can use crowbars.[/QUOTE] This however, does not work without GMod.

[QUOTE=Flip pl;17260006]Magnum>Everything.[/QUOTE] 6 bullets + slow reload time.
[QUOTE=Cidem;17218788]Its like shooting mini-suns at people[/QUOTE] Yeah, you didn't notice it vaporizes little pieces of people when you shoot them? You see the little glowing leaf thing come off them when you shoot em- the same leafes that come off when you git someone with a energy core
I love the crossbow. [editline]06:39PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Magman77;17190985]Everyone leave this thread.[/QUOTE] K bye. [editline]06:40PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Magman77;17190985]Everyone leave this thread.[/QUOTE] K bye.
