Just something I thought of while playing...

[TaiFong]

You've got the Combine right? This highly technological regiment that has incredible weaponry, flying droids, supercomputers, and a beyond enormous super advanced citadal structure...but...their force fields have to be PLUGGED INTO THE WALL? lol

I just thought that was hilarious.

Of course they're plugged in the wall, so Gordon can unplug them

 

[Netherworld]

but what if theres a power cut? lol

 

[Wraith]

to be honest, they didnt expect you to have a gun that could manipulate things through their forcefield, thats why they kept the plug back there, so that you couldnt get it, and so that they could easily move the force fields to another spot, plug it in, ready to go.

Dr.Freeman has all the firepower, yet he can't go through wire fence!

That's because the combine re-engineered all the fences, casting them out of a super-strong alien alloy.
