after my frightening experience with the train that killed me and 2 citizens,
i decided to make this and see if other people had any weird bugs.

my experience with the molding killer trains had made me want to

see other bugs.

so post :p
 
In the Water Hazzard level where you get off the boat and you are in a garage with a ammo crate of grenades and a couple of parked Combine armored cars I had a door open and pin me against the wall and I was stuck, the door could not open all the way so I could not close it, so I had to reload.
 
double alyx's

dog pinning people to the wall when he lobs the van at the combine.

btw did you ever post pictures of that train wreck? like 20 people asked but i never saw any. Or a video would be better. Got any?

edit:found the thread got the piccys! :laugh:
 
This is an AI-bug: Take any box or same sized or bigger item on your way by carrying it and the enemy wont attack you. You can sneak up behind the enemy and waste'em or go past by. Worked on me even on hard difficulty. Just make sure the box is in between you and the enemy. It just seems like they dont suspect any moving box...
 
This isn't a bug but rather an apsence of bugs,
I can kill stalkers, half breens and crab synths without crash
I can pick up the airboat and APCs without crash
 
Today, i got to the middle of sand-traps and the next map wouldn't load (in the tunnel), then a prompt came up saying "untitled" at the top with no command buttons or anything, then I clicked the cross and got a blue screen death.
 
I've gotten the clone alyx two times in Nove Prospect, she will follow you and the combine will shoot at her, but doesn't talk, die or take damage. Actaully, she is quite good as a bait for the combine.
 
In the original HL, in Power Up, you can plant a tripmine and use to as a step to get up to the control room where the G-Man is before he disappears. As if this weren't enough of a cool glitch/thing, you can then plant a tripmine ON the G-Man, the use for which you will soon see.

Now, there is a Barney in the room lying on the ground who is immune to all damage that you or enemies can do to him. However, if you plant a tripmine on the G-Man, when he disappears, the tripmine goes off and the game registers that the G-Man did this damage. Barney will either end up dead or angry at you when you see him again. It appears that the G-Man has "system" privilages (privilages above "admin" in Windows) when it comes to dishing out damage. :)
 
I've recived a physics bug. Once I got stuck bewtween a barrel and some stairs. I couldn't move at all. All of a sudden I... died because I got squished between the barrel and the stairs. Here's the funny part: for some reason I was launched right up into the air because of the pressure and I could see the entire map from there. :D
 
try sticking the barrel in a airlock in bme, same thing happens
 
I would spawn on inside a crate in HL2DM and then magically fly up and land on the roof, excellent camping but I hate it when it happens.
 
when i put some combines into elevator doors, they... get pushed inside or outside. just don't get cut in halfs.

try zombies. they might.
 
Once in Ravenholm, I fought zombies in a rather small room with lots of cartboard boxes scattered on the floor. After wasting the zombies I began jumping over the boxes and then suddenly there was a meaty *CRUNCH* sound and the screen went red. Apparently, I somehow managed to get crushed between two cartboard boxes :D
 
Kill the first antlionguard in one hit with a harpoon and the vort will never come out to give you the bugbait. Although I have not tryed this bug for a couple months and may be fix (I hope).
 
I too have had the double Alyx bug. Weird that it only happened once out of the 3 times i've played through...

Also, I had a minor bug where one of the Striders was permenantly walking around with the neato "inversion" effect from its secondary fire. Was quite weird really, like there is a black hole at the end of its gun that just won't go away no matter how much it shakes about...
