>You'll never play Half-Life 1 for the first time ever again
Says you
>>323142676
Ha yes i will because I've never played it to begin with!
I remember when I first played itfor the Playstation 2.
>>323143397
>better models
>better textures
>dem rechargers
>dat decay coop
ps2 half life was best half life
Why do we all have to wear these RIDICULOUS ties?
>>323142676
Thank God. It was an awful game.
>>323142676
>again
:^)
>>323143851
They're waiting for you Gordon, in the test chamber.
>>323142676
You'll never play Half Life 3
>>323144326
Oh my God, we're doomed!
IT'S ABOUT
TO GO
C R I T I C A L
>>323143851
Weren't you supposed to be in the Test Chamber half an hour ago?!
>>323144326
>chamberrrrrr
havent played it, so yes i will
>I think for myself therefore I've never played it
>>323142676
Just finished four days ago.
Nihilanth a shit but Gonarth was really tought.
>>323145353
I remember somehow finding Gonarch harder than Nihilanth.
Huh.
>>323145353
Play Blue Shift & Opposing Force
>tfw the writer for the games fucking left
Why are marines so fucking annoying?
>>323142676
Actually I will.
Probably in about 2 years, in VR with motion controls.
>>323145772
Source for info?
Can't be fucking true..
>>323145748
Blue Shift was kind of easy but Opposing Force was great.
But that's wrong.
>>323142676
We lived on anon, the game isn't that great anymore.
>>323145795
m8 their A.I and fucking equipment is a pain in the ass. Especially on Hard. Grenade Launchers fuck my ass until it bleeds kek
I feel that way about another game.
>>323145772
>your job is to get better
what did he mean by this
>>323145972
>Grenade Launchers fuck my ass until it bleeds kek
>>323145972
I don't find them that hard just really tiresome to fight.
They normally kill themselves with grenades.
>>323142676
>You'll never play Half-Life 1
>Idiots who think the assault rifle is not the most worthless thing in the series
>>323142676
ive never played it before
>>323145795
>I killed twelve dumb ass scientists and not one of 'em fought back. This sucks.
>>323146149
Shotgun is where it's at.
>>323142676
Half life, like most fps's is overrated trash.
Watch mind of morgan freeman or whatever it's called. the game has literally nothing to offer.
>>323146212
There is pretty much no reason to ever use the assault rifle over the shotgun or pistol.
>>323146212
>>323146280
>The SMG is still shit in HL2
>The balance it by making the shotgun and pistol even worse
This is not fun.
>>323146426
It's truth.
Game is shit.
Environment is shit.
Story is shit.
It's just garbage that got overhyped by retards.
Why would I play a shit old FPS if there are modern FPS that are infinitely better nowadays?
>>323146448
I've been playing the whole series back to back and HL2 seems so much worse than I remember it being.
>>323146592
At least play the fan remake - Black Mesa.
Fucking great.
>>323142676
>Again
But i have never played Half Life in the first place.
Looks like a generic FPS to me with dumb platforming
>>323146486
Uhhh no, it isn't.
Where the hell is this coming from?
>>323146821
The bullet sponge enemies, the bb guns in the game, the nonsensical level design, the total lack of any reason to continue at any point in the game, the retarded story, the shoehorned platforming.
It's about as bad of a good game as you can get.
It's not glitchy or buggy, it's worse. It's boring and stupid.
Good.
It was shit.
>>323147035
>Bullet sponge
Ever tried aiming for the head?
Plus, the Crossbow, 356 Magnum and the Shotgun did pretty decent damage.
>>323147119
>playing with the top and bottom cropped to make it 16:9
Please stop.
>>323147480
>default_fov 100 - 120
Do you even dev console, fag?
I've never played Half-Life.
In before underage, I was 12 when Half-Life originally came out, I didn't even know the series existed until like 10 years later.
>>323147604
stupid stupid stupid
>sup bro, allow me to make you check every ceiling before you enter a room IRL
>>323147775
Keep in mind when HL was first released, 16:9 wasn't feasible.
>>323147775
Steam version of HL1 is Hor+, anon. change your FOV.
>>323147814
This isn't too big a deal in the original Half-Life because there's never a rope the player uses, so if there's something hanging from the ceiling then it's easy to notice the ruse.
And then Opposing Force adds rappel ropes...
>playing for first time at sisters friends
>no idea what I was doing
>running around as a scientist for ages talking to people
>eventually cause resonance cascade
>close game and go downstairs because I thought I broke everything
>not played hl first time in 320 x 240
>>323148026
Don't remind me of those ungodly ropes.
HELL YEAH
God I hated surface tension
Xen a best
>>323148415
>Surface Tension
>Valve theme plays
Fuck yesssss
FUCK YEAH
so where does all the "lore" come from? In the game they don't explain shit
>>323148710
People who paid attention during the game.
>>323142676
I remember when i heard 1st zombie clicking and Security Guard shooting, then shooting stopped.
And these scary sounds of "something" up there at the top of the lift shaft continued to spook me.
I dropped the game because was too scared to face the unknown scary sounds source.
Played it year later.
t. dropped Alien Isolation because too much ambient atmosphere pressure.
>>323148750
Reading all the wiki shit is obvious that most of that stuff isn't in the actual game
>>323148408
gotta go fast Dr.Freeman!
>>323148408
>>323148681
Have you just discovered default_fov?
>>323148967
There's some shit in Raising the Bar and commentaries, as well as the occasional answering via email from Marc Laidlaw or Robin Walker (if i'm remembering the names right), but for the most part a lot of the shit on the wiki is either extra fluff or the most inane of information that isn't really necessary.
>>323142676
What causes amnesia?
>>323149098
yeah man this is awesome
>>323148967
I guess the community filled in a lot of plot holes.
There's still that shit about the G-Man.
its like saying starcraft or doom sucked fuck off half life is one of the top selling games of all time and a classic
but then, this thread has no reason to have even been posted so theres nothing to do but argue and shitpost
thanks a lot FAGGOT op
>>323143634
The lock on wasn't even that bad, I don't see why everyone complained so much about it.
>>323149132
You'll have to use some ice shards from the 'Dark Birds of Ocanthus' artwork
>that rush when playing black mesa for the first time
>exploring science and labs and just fucking around
oh why can't games be fun and explorative anymore.
>>323145772
>he left because half life 3's story was finished years ago
>valve still needs to make the fucking game
i tried it 2 years ago when i bought the entire franchise for 15 dollars.
i played 2 the most at like 5 hours, but it was extremely unenjoyable game play wise and i hate source outside of tf 2 and l4d2. the game reminds me of the duke nukem reboot
>>323150363
>Buy Douk3D Megaton Edition
>Playing through all the levels I became familiar with in my youth, finding all the familiar secrets, beating the familiar chapters.
>Then play new chapters that I haven't played before; that sense of action and exploration renewed.
Fuck I'm so happy with this purchase.
>>323150619
>playing HL Source
there's your problem
>>323145992
I played this in 2008 for the first time on a bigass CRT connected to my laptop (for 100% black levels). That fucking feel when you first finish the helicopter base and exit the elevator to Wan Chai. That music. That ambiance. It was still the most immersive shit I played up to that point even with the ridiculous dialogue and dated graphics.
