Someone email Gabe and ask him if he could get someone to code a flight control system so we could use it for GMod, thus we can make some better choppers other than sakari's badly made hoverball chopper of fail-hovering and steering-ness. I'd like to see a drivable chopper, though, like a combine one. Or at least a controllable-gun turret.

Something with 2 wheels
A fucking tank. We need a fucking tank atleast once in the HL series. I want to shoot at fucking combine with an Abrahams tank!

[QUOTE=Hillo;17247866]Something with 2 wheels[/QUOTE] Lookout Combine, it's Segway Gordon!
[QUOTE=DementNeo;17243772]alyx is a master mechanic[/QUOTE] Can't Gordon fix up things too? [QUOTE=DementNeo;17243681]-kick ass picture- I'm hoping the engines latest feature is the ability to do amazing flying vehicles.[/QUOTE] I'd fucking love flying that thing.
I'd like a combine APC. A helicopter would be way too hard to do in firstperson. Also, what if it turned out as bad as helis in, say, GTA4?

[QUOTE=NoShogun;17248469]I'd like a combine APC. A helicopter would be way too hard to do in firstperson. Also, what if it turned out as bad as helis in, say, GTA4?[/QUOTE] What's wrong with the Helicopters in GTA4 (besides the fact that the practically fly themselves).
I never thought it was fair that the Combine had huge Striders. Maybe if the rebels could somehow take over a strider's brain...
I would say a winterized APC, the helicopter, a snowmobile, and maybe something akin to the Digger from the beta? We might experience the need to punch through a wall of ice...
I don't know, driving a helicopter in first person sounds awfully hard. I bet 10 bucks Alyx will be driving it and Gordon will be manning a turret or something.

[QUOTE=The Epidemic;17248862]I don't know, driving a helicopter in first person sounds awfully hard.[/QUOTE] I used to do it all the time in Battlefield 2. It can take some time to get used to, but once you do it's pretty easy.
I'd wager we won't be getting to fly anything thanks to Source's lacking capacity for handling large outdoor areas. It would take nothing short of witchcraft to implement a good looking non-linear aircraft level. Pretty certain we'll get to handle a snowmobile, or some other threaded vehicle. Pretty much an icy equivalent of Highway 17. I've got a feeling we might get to pilot a mech, or some other huge machine for a boss battle however. Not exactly Valve's style tho...

I wanna see alyx as a toboggan.

Knowing Valve I can bet it'll be similar to flying helicopters in ArmA. This is all assuming we get to fly the helicopter in EP3 though.

[QUOTE=Amez;17250419]Arma has [b]too[/b] much realism for it to be fun, except for some people. Also when does a game have to be realistic?[/QUOTE] I'm just talking about the helicopter here, not the entire game of ArmA. The way a helicopter flies in ArmA is actually pretty easy for being as realistic as it is, so there wouldn't really be a problem. Aswell as that, I never mentioned anything about a game needing to be realistic, I just admire the realism in ArmA.
