A man in an orange jump suit....

 

[SMT]

P. Diddy is in HL2? OMG!!!1

 

[Eejit]

Orange jump suit... sounds like an escaped convict to me.

 

[Asknoone]

and if you head here http://pc.ign.com/articles/400/400985p4.html

they mention a combine in a mech suit comes after you...bashing down the door

 

[Eejit]

What does that have to do with it Samon...?!

 

[Asknoone]

what with the orange jump suit guy? nothing....jus though i would add that, i think its pretty interesting

Fair enough, though that's been discussed a few times before, as threads have wandered off their original topics.

 

[Asknoone]

ah, but as for the orange jump suit guy...who knows, i didnt quite understand what Doug meant when there motives may be bad

is he talking about the AI, or motives plot wise?

 

[eber]

well orange jump-suit ? gordon i guess

 

[Asknoone]

i dont its gordon...

 

[ailevation]

:hmph: Gordon has bad motives? Read the article.

Hey, on that page:

You actually ally with the slaves and some of the aliens in this game. They move over to the friendly side.

Okay, we know about the slaves (Vortigaunts), and we know that you can sort of ally with the Antlions (You trick them), though I wouldn't call that an alliance, myself... but could this mean the final, actual implementation of the "Fast Walker"? Or maybe we meet some freed alien Grunts, too?

 

[Sprafa]

Could be BS. Who knows?

misinterpretation everywhere.

 

[clarky003]

OooO,, combines in mech suit's.. kool. I hope so , just not too many of them I hope

 

[Asknoone]

i wonder about the grunts, they were bieng manufactuared in that factory in Xen werent they?

i want to see the Alien Controllers, i have a feeling you arnt on thier said. I actaully think theVortigaunts were exiled from Xen

 

[Keiko]

well orange jump-suit ? gordon i guess

The man in the waste-basket or sumtting!

...I hope they're talking about Mr. Friendly! :cheers:

 

[Brian Damage]

I don't know that Mr Friendly was actually supposed to be particularly friendly :E.

Other people may know more about him than I do, but I always get the impression that calling a Xenian creature "Mr. Friendly" is akin to calling a grumpy human "Mr. Sunshine"...

 

[Esquire]

Good point Brian. I dont know much about him but i think i read somewhere that he could heal Gordon.

But who is this "fast-walker" you mentioned previously. A fast walking zombie?

 

[Brian Damage]

No, it's (Or it was supposed to be) kind of like an intelligent, friendly, Xenian "wolf". The concept art describes it as being able to use machinery and weapons (Its front paws are nearly hands) and as guiding the player, warning about danger, eating the remains of enemies, and running away if something like a Garg shows up...

 

[Sulkdodds]

Wow, that's damn helpful, that is. Running away when big monsters appear...

 

[Brian Damage]

Well, better than getting his lil' yellow hide pulped...

 

[eber]

cool ,but what make u think they could make it into hl2 ?

 

[sHm0zY]

Sounds like some sort of gangsta

 

[Dalamari]

Maybe its the Space Biker dude originally to be cast as Gordon.
