Half Life 2 Episode 3 Discussion - Games

[QUOTE=cyclocius;15607564]I liked the Strider at the end of Episode 1. Until I found the RPG, then it was just hide, shoot, hide, shoot etc[/QUOTE] Strider doesn't count, it's just a repeat of an enemy from HL2.

[QUOTE=WallettheifV2;15601170]You wake up inside a hospital and it turns out everything was just a dream.[/QUOTE] I would hate Valve forever and demand a refund for every game I've bought that they made if that happened.

I honestly don't think your going to the borialis yet, becuse alyx's dad just died so, she's not going to just suck it up and say "oh well," and climb into the helicopter if that's what your thinking.

[QUOTE=EvilMattress;15491906]I want to see some new fucking weapons, new animations, new character models, updated textures and Lamar. And for the love of god A BOSS FIGHT![/QUOTE] I for one don't think you'll see lamar, because if you remember she crawled into a little wiring box on the rocket in episode 2 (in witch you can close) therefore trapping lamar, launching her into the portal blowing up along with the rocket.

[editline]04:32PM[/editline] I think your going too end up meeting the g-man face-to-face again but this time alyx will be with you wittnessing the whole thing [editline]04:40PM[/editline] But, one thing I really want to know is when the stupid trailer will come out, I mean god how long must it take! [editline]04:46PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Whatsinaname;15607392]Gman is not the FINAL BOSS, he is the NEXT BOSS. And it's Full Life Consequences. But seriously, we need a decent boss fight. We haven't had one since Half Life.[/QUOTE] G-man can't be a boss, he's mysterious. and everybody knows mysterious characters cant have too much physical ability, or it will ruin the fun.

[QUOTE=mrcoolwhip;15610874] I think your going too end up meeting the g-man face-to-face again but this time alyx will be with you wittnessing the whole thing [/QUOTE] This could be true.

[QUOTE=Whatsinaname;15607579]Strider doesn't count, it's just a repeat of an enemy from HL2.[/QUOTE] Yeah, but that strider was smart enough to blast the living fuck out of everything in the trainstation to try and get you :pcgaming:

[QUOTE=salty peanut;15618275]Yeah, but that strider was smart enough to blast the living fuck out of everything in the trainstation to try and get you :pcgaming:[/QUOTE] Very true. Running around the train station with shit blowing up everywhere was quite exciting. But still, It is just another strider.

We need a new giant death-dealing all-destroying enemy... [B][U][I]THE HUNTER STRIDER!!![/I][/U][/B] As fast as a hunter with the weapons capabilities of a strider!

When Episode 3 comes out, I'm going to play HL1 all the way to EP3. Probably won't do Blue Shift or Opposing Force. And I will forbid myself from going to YouTube, YTMND, and the Valve games section on Facepunch.

Place a rebel near a strider and the strider will stab the rebel with the leg and get rid of the body.

[QUOTE=Aurora93;15621726]They actually have an attack. Place a rebel near a strider and the strider will stab the rebel with the leg and get rid of the body.[/QUOTE] Except sometimes they don't. I've seen a strider walk around with a dead medic on his leg for an entire level. [editline]12:16AM[/editline] Then I found a rocket cache and killed him.

After waiting this long, you will want to play it immediately, and playing through Half Life while in possession of Episode 3 will only be prolonged self-torture. Instead, finish HL1 through Episode 2 just before the release of Episode 3. You won't be tempted to quit and will have something to do while you wait.

[QUOTE=WallettheifV2;15601170]You wake up inside a hospital and it turns out everything was just a dream.[/QUOTE] No you'll wake up in the testing chamber in hl1 and instead of you creating a resonance cascade it just exploded, and the whole thing was a hallucination.

Remember at the end of episode 2 right before you exit alyx asks Kliener and Magnussion if they are gonna come say goodbye. They agree so I'm pretty sure you will b e waking to Kliener, Magnussion, and alyx.

[QUOTE=Exuberance;15622655]No you'll wake up in the testing chamber in hl1 and instead of you creating a resonance cascade it just exploded, and the whole thing was a hallucination.[/QUOTE] I would fucking rage so hard if that was how it turned out.

[QUOTE=Sam Tilgan;15491715]Early on, Alyx will kill a Combine Assassin and take all the armor except the helmet. It'll make her look more awesome.[/QUOTE] She's hot the way she already is.

[QUOTE=mrcoolwhip;15610874]G-man can't be a boss, he's mysterious. and everybody knows mysterious characters cant have too much physical ability, or it will ruin the fun.[/QUOTE] You have no idea what you're talking about.

All I need for the final battle is some totally boss music by Kelly Bailey.

We need the Combine Assassins back. The Winter enviorment would give them a perfect comeback.

My favorite beta npc was always the Cremator, but with City 17 gone I don't think it would be possible to be in the game anymore. Unless they re-worked it into a new setting. Perhaps like a single npc you meet during EP3? (Father G. in Ravenholm; example) I think they should release three new npcs and a new weapon for EP3. NPCS; (In order you encounter them) 1. Zombie Assassin (or another alien type) 2. Combine Guard (or Female C. Assassin) 3. Cremator The new weapon should probably be a AR3/Combine Guard Gun/HMG [url]http://www.wegame.com/watch/Half_Life_2_Beta_weapon/[/url] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXIDtVLdBgc[/url]

I hope there's some kind of hand-held tau cannon, which sends stuff flying if it doesn't destroy it. That'd be thoroughly epic.

And then you could tau-jump, just like in hl1.

No tau-gun, it's place is on the buggy - lost forever.

[QUOTE=Paravin;15649643]No tau-gun, it's place is on the buggy - lost forever.[/QUOTE] There is more than one.

We need a sniper

[QUOTE=Jimmy422;15493866]Epic fight with GMan would be unexpected and cool. Like, you have to kill him but he deflects your bullets n stuff.[/QUOTE] Would be a epic crowbar fight ?

You will recieve the portal gun-gun So everyone can make portals which will probably kill the crap out of the computer you may attempt to run episode 3's probably awesome title screen with and result in a blue screen of cake. Then suddenly it's all a plan made by Zman, Gman's bitch who turns against Gman. You wake up in city 17 with approx 40543 combine watching your supposed 'death due to lag' Gman then takes off his suit parades around yelling "THIS IS SPARTA" then freeman wakes up and goes "No, it ain't" starring the voice of chuck norris. And with with true chuck fashion delivers a kick to gman's balls which have suddenly grown in coincidence. Then Freeman fires A redeemer at all the combine (approx 40543) whilst replicating the garrysmod banner by surfing the now ballless gman out of the (yes city 17 magically came back) tumbling city. Then arrives at a lovely sunset at a cliffside. He and alyx meet they look at each other...Then Freeman Throws alyx off a cliff shouts "LOL!" and gets a piggyback off the heavy weapons guy and they storm through the world of Halo. Which then spawns the sequel..Halo-life/Weapons guy.

[QUOTE=Cidem;15587286]Gordon would do something bad, then gman would stop time, kick him in the balls, then restart time again, within seconds.[/QUOTE] So it would go something like *gordon gets kicked falls on ground * Alyx: Gordon ?... whats wrong? Gordon: mehph Alyx: What? Gordon: I GOT KICKED IN THE F***ING NUTS Suit: "Emergency! User Death Imminent" And those would be his first / last words.
