Pursue her with what? Your trusty tricycle?

Silly Huntey, if you jump back to page 1 you will see that V Paramanov is a high ranking metrocop. That means full access to APC's and manhacks.

He also gets a longer lunch break and is a big hit at the Citadel's VIP club.

Whut. I thought the payload on the Ep2 rocket was designed to tap into the Black Mesa satellite and deliver the signal to "cancel out" the portal?

I've never read anything about the BM satellite triggering the portal storms, either. Didn't Eli say something about repercussions of the cascade being felt far and wide?

Actually, I'm not sure where I read about the satellite delivery rocket but I definitely read it somewhere. As for the repercussions being felt "far and wide" that was what Kliener said with regards to the explosion that destroyed Nova Prospekt.

Nobody has really spoken to Gordon about the portal storms and what caused them because they assume he lived through it like they did.

?UNITS DOWN IN SECTOR 3:14, REMAINING UNITS CONTAINED.?

You don?t flinch. In the past couple of weeks you have heard more and more reports of metrocops being wounded and killed in the city. However, seeing as you were reassigned to the canal district months ago then it seems that it?s no longer your problem.

You keep your rifle steady and continue to recon the rebel outpost across the water. The local units had never seen Gate 5 as a crucial location but now that the rebels had moved in it was all they could talk about. You never really shared their callous opinions of the citizens of City 17. As far as you are concerned, you?re just doing your job.

Just as you are about to call it a night, the gate suddenly creaks into action and starts to open. You scan the windows of the control tower, looking for the one who activated it. Just then, you spot them. A head pops into view, a young male rebel, checking that the gate is operating. This is the first rebel movement you seen all day and your trigger finger is getting itchy. You fire off a single round, smashing into the man?s temple. He splutters loudly and goes limp, his upper body dangling from the opening. Just then, a small craft speeds through the gate. You quickly whip your rifle around and aim down the scope. The operator is a young woman, in regular citizen attire. You fire a shot which ricochets off of the boats sturdy frame. You fire once more, but the shot falls short and the hover boat vanishes behind an embankment. You glance back to the outpost, noticing a lot more rebels rushing around the yard like ants, disturbed by the loud shots.

What now?

A) Pursue the female in the airboat
B) Eliminate the rest of the rebels in the yard
C) Call in reinforcments and storm the outpost
D) Retire for the evening and report to your superiors

@Urby: Didn't the rocket launched in Episode 2 have something to do with the "satalite delivery rocket"?

No, the rocket in Episode 2 was launched in order to close the combine mass portal which opened when the citadel went kablamo.

Also, I personally hope there is never EVER a Half-Life movie. Some things should stay where they belong. Half-Life belongs on the PC, and at a push, the consoles.

Also, keep up the story.

What would be a cool feature would be perks and achievements on TWHL profiles in the forum. Say I killed Huntey 20 times without him killing me: A message appears in mine and his TWHL profiles

"Huntey is Urby's bitch"

By the way, admins of the TWHL Steam group can set weekly events over Steam to pop up and remind everyone who's a member of the group. It'd be much easier than logging in to TWHL and seeing "HLDM NAO!"

I was going to suggest somebody adding a module or something to the site to let members and visitors know that a game is starting or whatever. I forgot about the steam community because my brain is made of spatulas and corn.

High Alert

Hidden deep within a harsh valley, covered by forests and the harsh mountain wilderness, a city has been developing for over 20 years.

The vast underground civilisation of Libertas, funded by The Urban Independence Corporation (TUIC), is an experimental city and is inhabited by employees of the same company. The city was designed to be a totally independent complex, with all of its energy, food and water being created, recycled and reused with a series of development labs.

However, during an attempt to create a man-made renewable fuel source for powering the massive central generators, due to an incorrect element being brought into the process, a potent mutagenic virus was created. The scientists who came into contact with the liquid created in the subsequent chemical reaction began to transform into unspeakable and violent mutations.

The TUIC immeadiatly responded, despatching a cleanup team to the city to remove the dangerous chemical from the city via a convoy of tankers and destroy it. However, their transmission to company headquarters was intercepted by a rival company, specialising in biological weapons manufacturer who despatched a team of heavily armed mercenaries to ambush the convoy while it is still within the confines of the city. During their assault, one of the trucks was damaged during a collision, and the virus began to infect the inhabitants of Libertas.

This is by no means a perfect story, I just threw it together while watching TV. :rly:

in Crowbar glitch.. Post #271735

Haha. I love this bug. It only seems to apply to corpses though but in HLDM it tends to happen if you get a kill with the crowbar. Blood goes everywhere!

My favourite glitch was one that happened years ago, towards the end of the game. An vort died near a rotating door and it jammed open. Then, whenever you stood over the vort's corpse your health would increase in single units (about 5 units per second)

My least favourite bug was with one of the early patches which made the game unplayable. This was around 1999 when I had no idea how to open the console (only my Dad's PC had internet access and it was a work computer)

You watched the intro sequence for 5 minutes and then at the end barney would walk to the tram and die on the spot. You couldn't get out of the fucking train! Me and my dad raged for weeks.

The best part of it was my Dad ended up setting up a LAN between his PC, mine and my sister's. My Bro-in-law, my Dad and myself spent 2 weeks playing Quake 1 from start to finish in co-op. It was good, there were many lulz. I know the game off by heart to this day.
