One thing i was REALLY disappointed with in hl2, was the way you couldnt shoot down gunships like shown in Bink vid "coastline". (as in you shoot it down and it comes hovering down and slides to a stop) VERY COOL.
So i played thru the whole of the game not seeing one gunship getting shot down like this. They just blew up into pieces in mid air.
THEN i played it again on hard and i think it's the first time you fight a gunship, but the bit with the car-wreckage on the road on coastline bit, i shot one down and it was AMAZING!!
it looks like you have to shoot it down above land otherwise it explodes into pieces.
I know a LOT of people will go "yeah we know :\" but as i played through on medium difficulty and didnt see one gunship do it, i'm guessing im not the only one.
