about Xen atmosphere

Negative pressure is pressure, like negative numbers are still numbers.

Simply because there is enough mass overall to attract and keep particles.
Drew my own this time:

Think kinda like that, except the picture loops whenever you look at the rock things.

This is interesting in theory, but that would probably result in “Super Mario Galaxy” gravity. In order for it to have more unidirectional gravity it would have to be near a large source of mass. I suppose darkmatter could explain it, but I just like xen better when it’s unexplained.

It’s an alternate universe. Laws of gravity need not apply.

Ok, this is off topic, but I’ve been trying to determine what you mean by the ,) and .)
Maybe they’re representations of [noparse] and [/noparse] respectively?

no

no? look at it better dude…

[Dr_icecream]

no

[Rdjp]

Yes because the xen creatures can live on earth perminantly as they cannont return to xen e.g. the headcrabs and antlions so xen must have a oxygen atmosphere

Hey Rdjp, stop necroposting. Thanks. lol

Shephard had a respirator…

The mask Cpl Shephard wears is not a respirator. the M40A1 gas mask is designed to keep biological/nuclear particles out of the air supply, not supply air.

Blue Shift and Opposing Force aren’t canon… so they should be ignored.

Of course, Kleiners teleport in Half-Life 2 takes Gordon and Alyx to Xen briefly (in the teleportation process) in order for them to reach Black Mesa East. So I guess a HEV suit is not required to survive on Xen.

Of course the first explorers on Xen wore HEV suits with helmets as they most likely didn’t expect an Earth-like atmosphere which Xen apparently has.

We can only assume this much.

how are they not canon? it shows how barney and a few scientists got out of black mesa, and what happens to the complex after gordon leaves.

also, if the aliens from xen can breath earth’s atmosphere it wouldn’t be far to believe that the opposite is true.

sorry if this was all brought up already, too much to read when i’m about to sleep.

Nitrogen, if you must pin it down to one element.

what te hel is this leading to… a fart contest :sick:

and what does this have to do with :bms: ingame

[eateroftheflame]

Since xen aliens can live comfortably on Earth the atmosphere of both worlds must be similar. And on the Gearbox canonicity debate they are canon until stated otherwise by Valve, a bit like the Star Wars expanded universe.
