Question is, how do so many players die right at the start???

Do they whack themselves with the train car door or something???

And how the hell do so many people die in the final scene???

I got no possible answer for that one...

We need to get a couple hundred people to type kill in console throughout the whole game and in weird places.

A lot of people try to see if they can jump the massive cliff where the first 'Vista' is, by the looks of it.

Ah yeah, huh...still, how do you manage to die watching the final scene?

1st map : Jump off cliff just to see if Alyx reacts at all.

Last map : Conventional RPG/SMG1 explosive suicides.

These are the main reasons.

end of thread

Its kinda hard to tell whats what from the top view..

And yes.. LOL i was one of those idiots that tried jumping of the ledge by the base to see if i would die or not lol.


Actually you know what.. In the beginning isn't there a rock slide as well when the train bridge collapses? I think I remeber one, that may be what killed people there.

I just figured out that it is entirely possible to kill yourself in the beginning after the portal storm. Two giant rocks fall off a ledge and take out the fence allowing you passage.. Well anyway, If you stand directly under the rocks it will indeed kill you.. This is slightly humorous because you should be no where near the rocks when they fall.. This leads me to believe that people are actually willingly standing under the rocks JUST to figure out if they will get crushed to death or not. Either that or they were in such a hurry that they stood near the fence not knowing that huge rocks would come down and crash into them.

I think it's also possible to go back and get killed by the train falling on you. Not sure though.

Everything in the last map has to be explosive suicides, unless people noclip on top of the rocket when it launches (assuming the rocket is an actual entity, has damage triggers etc.)

 

[Rizzo]

I lauched rocks and other items straigt into the air and let them hit me in the head.

 

[morgs]

Can you actually get on top of the rocket?

 

[simonjedi]

I've just noticed that the red bit on the far right on the last map is where

Spoiler

eli dies

that might have something to do with it

 

[Apocalypse89]

Maybe the game counts the ending as a death?

Nah you can't.

Beside, the "cinematic physics" are actually awful when you take a closer look. The parts aren't even colliding with the world. Same with the seesaw bridge.

Mabey the lift is what kills people at the end.. Ive got killed by quite a few lifts accidentally. The lift were you ride up with the vortagont killed me the last ride through the game.

 

[Xendance]

Haha, I was also one of them idiots who jumped off the cliff to see if I die.

I did ):
