Halflife 2 Expansion wish-list

To be fun it would have to be like OP4 and BS. You cannot winhe war, but you go in fighting and then you have pull out and fight for your life.
 
I seem to remember OP4 having a massive boss fight, resulting in Race X's withdrawal from Earth.
I never played Blue Shift, though.

In OP4 you go in to clean up all the aliens and stuff but they are too strong so the grunts pull out but you get left behind and then have to fight for your survival.
 
Leaving you behind to kill the Geneworm, closing the gate between Earth and Race X's place.

-Angry Lawyer
 
-All the scraped media and code to be included for use in mods.
 
Omg the expansion should add new enemies, not outdated crappy ones like the bull squid, hound eye, garg, tenticle, snark, and race x. I mean hl2 wouldn't be too interesting if valve kept the same invaders from xen as the main threat.
 
What were the names of the 2 OP4 bosses?

Your wrong.
 
so you would like it if valve kept the same enemies? No combine? No striders?
 
I think the expansion should put in some of the enemies that weren't in HL2, like the bullsquid, and add new ones. more guns too. That's all I ask, you greedy bastards ;)
 
Some other interesting idea's:

- Dam, school, swimming pool, mall, a basketball court (and a bouncy basketball ofcourse which you could throw in a basket using the gravity gun), an abandoned airport, gas station, hospital, bar (with a pinball machine), toilets (mirrors).
- Window blinds, ability to block doors (ravenholm video)
- The locations that are scrapped (Weather control etc.)
- Large billboards aside the roads, roadsigns, cactuses, bushes rolling over the scenery
- Certain structures/objects from the sci-fi episodes from the comic Yoko Tsuno
- Dum dum bullets (for the magnum) that will explode after penetrating a character
- Gibs/body parts
- Retina scan (Halflife 1)
- A junkjard (car-wrecks) and a grabber/crusher
- Smoke coming out of a factory's chimney
- Various objects in the scenery: bicycle, motorcyle, shoes, waste bins, shopping cars, cash registers, oil canisters, more variations of (parts of) cars etc.
- Light switches
- Acid pools, and acid leaking from pipes
 
Grr Id like all hl2 guns and maps restored i also want it so when you pick up like a bottle you can use it like a weapon. so you can only hold one and it would be under crowbar probaly... But the big momma that i want is the sticky launcher man! :cheers:

So you thought HL was crappy.
see, we can all twist the words and respond to something that was not meant, but it isn't big and it isn't clever.

No, we can have both, The Bullsquid and Houndseye where already modelled and the Bullsquid was partially animated.
 
eh.. at the time I thought half-life 1 was cool, but valve obviously took the bullsquid/houndeye out for a reason.. and that reason is because they look freaking stupid and dont seem to fit in with the hl2 environment.

Isn't the HL2 enviroment Earth after the 'Portal Storms'?? Isn't it irrelevant that they dont fit with the HL2 enviroment because this is an expansion to HL2, not HL2 itself. Isn't it also pretty obvious that they would be re-modelled.
 
I would like to see earlier concepts of the combine soldiers and other enemies.

The Raising the Bar book showed concepts of the different armor that combine soldiers used before they were changed to what they are today. Maybe Valve can pull a George Lucas and alter the combine soldiers to their earlier designs just like the Stormtroopers in the prequel movies.

Some designs wouldn't work, like the old elite concept, but the older armor could be utilized as the upcoming expansion will take place years prior.
 
7-hour war would work...you finish the game and your actions form the beginnings of the resistance..maybe you take control of the place now known as black mesa east at the end of the expansion..something like that..
 
Heres my expansion or mod if I were a modder....
JANITOR!!!! Dude run around with a fiking plunger whacking aliens and then like get the turd launcher and stuff!

Hmm.........I whould like a weapon which kills everything with one shot :P:P:P Like a super-hyper laser-gun which is very accurate and silent, and whould have rapid-fire too. Hehee... And 500 ammunition in each clip and able to carry about 50 clips! :naughty:

There's a harpoon on the beach, in fact there are several, you can pick em up with the gravity gun and use em. They kill antlion guards in one shot.
 
how about a flashlight that doesn't burn out seeing how his HEV suit can keep gordon alive but powering a crappy flashlight saps its power in a minute.

Also since HL3 is probably gonna start in the same place I think i'd like to see ravenholm again or father grigory. the ending of HL2 makes me wonder about time travel in 3 also since G-man appears to be getting off a train at the end like the one you started in.

What makes you think HL3 will be in the same place?
 
The 3rd hl2 expansion, after the Alyx and Dog expansion should take place in a completely different enviroment.. far away from City 17 where you play as Adrian Shephard a couple years after the Black Mesa disaster. The gman sends you on your first assignment cleaning out a xen infested area, thinking you will never survive. While you are doing this 7 hour war begins!
 
I hope the expansion will have the same timeline as HL2.
Somehow I think it will use a lot of the cut levels, and perhaps it will start on borealis (maybe city 17), then Weather Control etc. etc. until Alex returns to City 17 and meets Gordon (as she met him in HL2).
Something like that.
 
Uhhhhh....Genworm?A lot of sources/sites i go to called it "Chumtoad".Sorry if im wrong.

It was cut. Wisely. It was ugly and seemed annoying. But it was used for some mods, I think I've seen it in sven co-op.
 
Oh you mean that little purple one eyed dog lookin' thing?
