Werent Gargs and Alien grunts Like Machines? made by nihilanth to Destroy things in black mesa?

i think they stopped making Gargs and Alien grunts when Nihilanth died
 
I hated them back in HL. >:
I hope they've got better stuff going on at Valve.
 
I don't care if they put back old HL1 monsters or new ones as long as we get to see some more Xen wildlife. So far from what I've seen in the Ep2 trailers they just added a few antlion variations, well I'm sick of antlions how about something else!
 
I want more varieties of headcrabs!

No, I withdraw that.. don't want this turning into some Pokémon lookalike
 
In Episode Two I want to see the Ichthyosaur, the Bullsquid (it would fit in perfectly) and something new.

Eventually I want to see something similar to the Tentacle and Hydra in one of the future Half-Life games. I loved the Tentacle in HL, it’s probably my favorite Xen creature.
 
I don't care what they put in, as long as there are no more god damn zombie filled chapters. I hate Ravenholm, and I hate the garage in Episode 1.

It's too repetitive. Oh look, I killed all these zombies with bullets, a trap, and barrels. Now I'll go into this next area and kill zombies with buillets, a trap, and barrels. There is no variety. All the other areas in the game are fine because even though there are really only about two other types of enemies, they are put into different situations to make it fun. All the zombie chapters are just endless zombies coming at you, because that's all a zombie can do.

I am fine with fighting a few zombies in Episode 2, but I swear that if there is one zombie chapter in it, I am godmoding through it because I am not putting up with it.

There WILL be new stuff. In some interview they said they might add 2-3 new enemies, so we'll see..

That could be 3 new types of antlion you know. We've already seen a poison antlion and an antlion grub.

And no, I'm pretty sure gargs are animals not machines synths or whatever.

Gargs bear a resembalance to Vortigaunts and Controls plus they don't attack Vortigaunts and aGrunts, I'd say they are manufactured.
 
Bullsquids and houndeyes are terrorizing the country side and people moved to the cities because of those, since Eli and everyone moved out into the country side there is a possibility of seeing those again.

but the vortigaunts were Enslaved Meanwhille They Created aGrunts and Garg, Since they were freed i see no Point in making Gargs and aGrunts

Unless thats the best way Dealing with the Combine

Kid - Having Children in a game isnt allowed

Not true. The child labor factory section of the game was removed due to the fact that Valve realized there would be no children left since Combine occupation two decades ago. The Combine came and almost immediately shut off our ability to reproduce, thus any children at that time have since grown up, and of course no more have been made since that time.

Also, about this garg discussion: there's no evidence to suggest that gargs were manufactured; for that matter, none suggesting grunts were created--only packaged and shipped. And gargantuas bear absolutely zero resemblance to vortigaunts or controllers, save for perhaps the "visor-eye" that is shared between controllers and gargs. Gargantua have more in common with the snark than anything else on Xen.

I've always hated the idea that gargs were created, or the idea that they were suits of some kind. It's too ID4.

To get back to the core topic:

I demand to see stukabats. I love them. They don't even do anything, but they're fun to watch, flying around in groups, gliding and banking on air currents.

As for something new to fight...eh...archers. Archers would be cool, in a swarm of 'em. Faster than ichthys, not as annoying as leeches, but they pack a mean bite and they can shoot darts at you.
 
Oh, okay. For one moment I was imagining Overwatch elites shooting arrows at you... :| Wewps.
 
Garg > Ichy

I'd realy like to what became of the controllers. They were creepy buggers, but made combat interesting. :D

Well remember, they DID get ahold of a rebel crossbow in Episode One. And I'd imagine that, after evacuating City 17 they're gonna be short on ammo for pulse rifles. ;)

Archers are these red-and-blue fish, four eyes, and protruding lower jaws. Very fast, very agile, not too big. A few feet long, maybe. They can shoot darts at you from a distance, and they swim up and bite you.

Also, I realized I said stukabats; I meant boids. Boids are the carefree, harmless flyers. Stukabats are jerks. :flame: Dunno why I got the names confused. Though I tell you what, the way stukabats behave is something that we don't yet have in an HL enemy...they hover or perch on ceilings, and divebomb you when you get too close.

Race X is just random, unimaginative and have no plausible traits or features that run amok among them.

Then you say Xenian creatures - don't forget, they are not be a single race. As for Race X - you should know.
 
Damn!

*Checks self into mental asylum*
 
I really don't mind Race X, or their absence in future instalments. Quit trying to make them an issue! :p

Oh, snarks and the Gargantua.

'Nuff said.l
 
Bullsquids and Ickys. I can't stress this enough, more 'squids and Ickys! Gargs and Snarks too.
