City 17 Hospital

Oh yeah, my bad. I had actually then completley forgot about the whole war thing. :o Ehh.

...Unless its being cleaned up because, as said, there is something important there. I really don't know, but I hella look forward to finding out.

I'm pretty sure it's just a Combine command station of some sort.

Isn't that a tad unoriginal? A la the Nexus building?

And besides, why bother removing the Combine from it if the main Combine power is about to explode?
 
I don't see how. City 17 was riddled with small Combine outposts that you came across during the uprising. The Nexus was the base of the Overwatch's control in City 17 (bar the Citadel, obviously).
But what about the little command centre in the building block?
The generator in the square?
The office building?

I don't see how it's going to be anything flashy, or different. It's most likely a command centre or a detention block. Just because they go in there does not mean they went in just to remove the Combines presence. They most likely went in there because it's the quickest way around, and no matter where they go in City 17 they are going to come across a great deal more Command stations. You have to remember, City 17 is/was Combine controlled, and therefore a great deal of the area is going to be strewn with their presence.
 
I'm hoping it's just one of the many buildings in City 17. Nova Prospekt was brilliant, but been there, done that.

From a story point of view, plenty of command centres make sense, but from a gameplay point of view, it could be boring. Unless there is a novel way of bringing the place down.

I don't know why I'm complaining though. Any HL is good HL.
 
I don't know, I like the idea of a lot of little command centers strewn about rather than a few big ones. With them spread out everywhere you spend less time bringing it to the Combine (so to speak) instead of trekking around for long periods of time spent with not a lot happening.
