Hunter Sightings!

[Hellrider]

Well there are quite a few places you see hunters but don't fight them or fight them a few minutes later,one of them is before Alyx gets injured there is one on the roof shouting,and the Alyx asks "What was that?"..
I think I saw them in a few more places but don't remember..where else did you see them ?

When you are going up that winding road towards the village with the White Forest Inn (When you hear a combine communicate to his comrades about your presence), you see Two hunters running by a chain-link fence

 

[Hellrider]

Yeah I saw that one too..any others?

Yes, and a little bit after that, in the Building. You press the button, and one is seen looking at you trough the (Inside) window.

You can hear them in the map right after the bridge, but it's part of the soundscape.

Still cool though.

Its as if the Hunter will have the same legendary status as the Gman

There is one crossing fence before ambush in white forest inn.

That is the most scared I have ever been in a Half Life game.

No, the Advisor sightings will attain Gman status, or atleast should.

 

[DEATH eVADER]

I just couldn't see how we could have advisor sightings. It would just look like a round object, much like a UFO, floating in the background of the sky.

Somebody will just reply that its just a weather balloon

 

[Narvi]

There are Advisor sightings in game.

I couldn't believe myself when I didn't spot him right at the beginning, on the roofs and that. But then I saw him look through the window, and I was like ":O HUNTERS!"

I know of two sighting, the first (when Alex is hurt) has three sighting IIRC; first on the roof when it first makes it call, then on another roof as you work your way into the building (this one I'm unsure about as I've not play in a day or two), the third inside behind the window (great view of him here BTW).

The second sighting is on the way to the first Hunter fight with Alex at the communication site. You can see two run by behind some trees as you drive up. This one is talked about in the commentary.

PS: This thread needs screenies.:imu:

I missed the first sighting on my first play through because I was exploring that area and didn't look anywhere when the hunter shouted..
Then I saw it\him in the house and was like "how the hell am I going to fight hunters now?" and then when he injured Alyx I was really shocked..

 

[QuantumFireball]

How bout the Silo Missions, when you get to the blast door and it closes, if you try to look under it you can see a hunter or two going after the resistance forces.

 

[Crash Happy]

Yeah but it seems to be impervious to damage. I'd rather have more moments where our actions could directly change someones fate, as it were. I'd love to save that guy and I don't see how it would cause a problem since he could run off to go grab reinforcements, or be injured and need to wait for medical help.

I just played through that part in commentary mode, and noticed neither the hunters nor the commentary node mentioning them. Can you be more specific?

 

[Crash Happy]

Just after you load into the section you hear a Combine radio call, then turn left and head to a hairpin right with you looking at a fence and some tree's. After that right there's a weapons cache hidden in a small cave just before you head up the hill and approach the Inn.

Now that I think really hard about it, I'm confusing the drive up to the communication site with the drive up to the Inn my bad. The post below your is where I was think of.

Also to amend my post before, The second spot in the first encounter with the Hunter is as you drop down into the room with the button, he runs across the roof you just dropped from.

Screenies of the first sighting
