Well, I thought I'd look in the GCF of the german half-life.
What did I find?
Robogrunt! Instead of human grunt, the robo one is there, from the beta/multiplayer!
I'm still in shock.
I might've expected this for the japanese half-life

OK, I don't believe this. In an earlier thread of mine, Muzzle said that in Germany they don't like animated deaths.

Of course this was also a deathmatch model way back when the 5th patch came out.
This model is nearly as old as Team Fortress Classic.

There are robogrunts (dead) on Xen when you talk to the Gman (if you're using the HD pack). They replace the grunt outpost over there...

Yeah, but its an enemy in-game.Like in Sven-Coop then. Still very old.

If you use the HD pack there are dead HD Grunts during the Gman outro.
In HL dead grunts and live grunts use the same model so therefore that is not possible.

Yeah, the robogrunts are in place of the human grunts in singleplayer. They bleed oil or something if I recall too. This has been around for a while, ever since the first release of HL, to my knowledge...

They bleed oil? Interesting.
Hey - do they speak like robots?

@Urb: Well then my version is jacked up, because that's the way it works for me... when I first saw it I was pondering how they did it...

Hey - do they speak like robots?Don't the HECUs ALREADY sound like robots in HL1? Honestly now.
So wait, this is from an OLD version of German Half-Life? Later on they changed it to humans? Typical censorship.

Guys, this is incredibly old news. Are you telling me that nobody here knew about this?
I've been thinking of implementing them into my FUBAR mod, since they have the same AI as grunts... it could make an interesting chapter.

Wow.
About the no blood thing - the original HL code actually has exceptions for german language in the parts responsible for violence stuff. Fuck knows why.
Quoted from combat.cpp (the part of hl.dll which has the most control over blood/gibs/violence stuff):

Really? So it was in the half-life code all along? I thought they made a different version for Germany!

Germany doesn't like game violence, so in the german version there's no gibs , blood , death or hgrunts.

robogrunts dont bleed oil tho... >.< i thought that would be way cool.

What about Barney, the Scientists, the female black ops, and Gordon (if he is killed and gibs in the process)?
Were BS and OpFor ever released in Germany? If so, do they also have ridiculous censorship? Because the robogrunts contradicts any human grunts in BS and contradicts all of OpFor.

Germany has tight controls on violence in video games - the "german" version of farcry has reduced blood and no ragdolls for example. Not that it matters, since a "patch" comes out usually the next day after release, if not immediately.

Anyone can see the robots, just switch to no blood mode.

Woah - is this thread still going?
How the content lock thing work if there was no robogrunt model in the original game?

Ummm, the robogrunt resources are in every version of Half-Life.
