I've finished the game but...

[davidlee90]

I havent got this gun... where do I get it?

heres the site with the information about this gun.. M-29 OICW

 

[A Big Fat CoW]

You don't.

 

[davidlee90]

what??

 

[bliink]

It was cut from the game

 

[Chiefi]

From looking at the pictures, that gun in real life looks ugly!

 

[hasan]

hmm .. now that you mention it .. yeah I just realized this gun was missing ...

 

[Grumpy]

Not missing, just not appearing until Valve releases their new Episode Add On for HL2 Go the 1st Expansion Pack

 

[HunterSeeker]

The OICW was replaced by the combine pulse rifle.

The combines on the back of my DVD box are using the OICW...

 

[DEATH eVADER]

The combines on the back of my DVD box are using the OICW...

I hate it when that happens, they decided to use screenshots that are a year old, and don't show the actual contents. ;(

I remember when they did it on the box for Theme Park when it first came out

 

[Para]

OICW is ugly gun anyway, good riddance

That's a really crappy model, in my never humble opinion :imu:

 

[the_alien]

OICW is a kewl weapon... i would have loved it in the game

 

[Warlock]

Heh, I wouldn't of minded the OICW either. But I'm more than happy with it's replacement. Combine Pulse Rifle all the way.

 

[justmatt]

I think that gun is in Far Cry.

 

[clarky003]

would of been nice , but it seemed like it might be too easy to sit at a distance and not get involved close up much with that sight. Yeh I find valves pulse rifle way cooler aswell... + OICW = not the most futurisitic weapon ever. So there may have been a few issue's why it wasnt used,, weapon gameplay balance issue's I imagine.

 

[Breydel]

Far Cry has an OICW, so does Soldier of Fortune 2.

 

[DoctorWeeTodd]

Yeah in SOF2 they carry an OICW also nicknamed the "Supergun".

The OICW is marketed by Heckler and Koch to be some sort of sci-fi weapon. It's boasted to carry the power of a mounted 20mm turret, have a targeting computer on it's scope (Identifies heat signatures and movements IE threats) and is planned to come equipped with an RPG instead of the standard grenade launcher.

I still have a hard time seeing this come out in the next decade or so.

 

[A Big Fat CoW]

The OICW was cancelled in favor of the XM8 (essentially just the rifle part of the OICW without all the attachments)

 

[Raxxman]

Canned cause it was too heavy, too large and the rifle barrel was too short, making it naff. Nice gun in concept (And it would of been nice in this game too, the Sub sucked at any range)
