If I still had the beta installed I'd do it but uhg I'm not in the mood.

By the way, it's odd that Valve chose such an obscure weapon as the main assault rifle. The only other game I know that did that is DN3D with the even more Pribor 3B machine gun, although it might just be a coincidence because it's an old Plasma Rifle sprite with 2 more barrels.

Hey, has anyone thought about putting Cyberpu-- *Gets bludgeoned to death by the entire community* But seriously, has anyone thought about putting some Blade Runner in their Leak stuff?

It's more like the Combine forced its own tech, and even then it's not much, seeing as how they relied on Earth so much that it needs to build the citadel with tiles instead of the dark energy stuff they used in final.

Oh yeah, maybe it's just me, but it felt like the Combine's main color theme in leak is green, whereas they are associated with blue in the final. By the way, you know how they went with the "Combine uses Earth resources" thing originally? I know it's unfinished concept and all, but how would it make sense? They can transport Synths into our dimension, why not other tech too? Old Eli said the Citadel was either teleported/dropped into cities, but why is it at one point made of tiles because "reusing human materials"? I'm sure there's some more inconsistencies, but it's probably too much. Another thing I noticed in the very early dark C17 art is the organic theme in Combine stuff (prominently the first Citadel). Could the Citadel be a huge Synth, or Combine being something quite different than we know? And according to the wiki, the Clamp Citadel was one of the more recent version, being the 2nd one before final. It's style and the fact it's a model meant that it's quite new, but yet it appeared in one of the older maps (proto_docks)? Besides, it is also the weirdest and most different Citadel of all, being short and stumpy as opposed to the others' slim and tall.

That was my main choice of Citadel in my first days of leak mapping. Its just so cool to look at, and it fits rather well with the brush Combine mechanisms (doors, towers, etc).

I have a bit of a a fondness for the round Citadel on e3_terminal. I mean just look at it: [img_thumb]http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090107230952/half-life/en/images/0/0f/Citadel_terminal.jpg[/img_thumb] My question is why doesn't that Citadel show up anywhere else, and why don't we know much about it?

How early were the maps it was featured in anyway? The fact that it does not have a concept art only adds more mystery to it. It felt like it came from nowhere. The E3_Terminal one too, because it's like the devs just made it and the Combine Guard and then threw them away afterwards. But the fact that it was in e3_strider meant that it was quite old too, from the Air Exchange era, but since it's an e3 map so we'll never know. Maybe we should ask other HL2 staff about the mysteries than Marc. It's cool to look at, but it didn't gave the overwhelming feel the other Citadel did.

I would see it as an opportunity to show how humanity is still evolving even if in a twisted and forced form. I believe it can make the whole setting less *huge cough* bland. What I'm saying is that, imo, showing Combine bringing something to humanity, adding something, would make the picture deeper and more ambivalent.

I'm new here, but does anyone know a copy of the HL2 Leak which contained the Axel Project and the other patches made by HGrunt, LLJBK, etc? I think it was on Mega.co.nz before, but I can't find the download link...

Oh, clearly I'm not using enough S.T.A.L.K.E.R props.[/QUOTE] Sorry, are you going to fling your own shit at me for honest mistakes I made under the context of trying to help, or are you going to stop holding it against me and work on making something more awesome than your wildest dreams? Trying to rally a bunch of people against me doesn't get you anywhere, at best you'll get me shunned then I'll continue to work under a different flag, so if that's a victory for you, then go for it. And [I]I am sorry[/I], I don't know how many times I have to say that. I hired a dude who didn't understand the chain of command who tried to fire you after he saw one of your maps from 2011, it's still my fault, I know, but that's a mistake made out of me wanting to help you guys. I shouldn't have been put in power, I know that, and I'm going to take full responsibility for my killing of Insolence. It's better to face the music then pretend like you don't know what's going on, because I know exactly what's going on, and I know it's my fault. If you really want to throw a bunch of insults spawned from different beliefs at me, then cool, I try to give this place and it's few inhabitants what they'd like, and if that means using a bunch of Not-HL2-at-all props, then so be it, I'm not going to completely cater to a few people who want their HL2Leak to stay as pure as humanly possible. I also don't want this thread to turn into an arena for flame-wars, I'd rather have it closed then it be turned to that deplorable shit, so if you really wanna retaliate towards me with your best no-lifer joke after I post this, that's your business. Yes, I don't have a life, I've known that, and I'm fully aware preferring mapping for a 10 year old game rather then going out and having fun with friends is the wrong logic to use, and I wish I didn't use it, but I do. That glasses thing referenced how I had to buy glasses because I was looking at a screen, mapping, for 14-15 hours a day, not looking at your maps, I actually quite like your maps. But seriously, sitting here and taking potshots at me isn't doing anyone any favors, and having a prominent figure of the only community I'm relevant in making fun of me isn't exactly great. Honestly, you could just call me a hypocrite and void all this, it doesn't matter. Just consider it. Thanks.
