Episode 3 Discussion and Information.

I bet there’s going to be new weapons.

What I’m expecting is maybe a Gluon Rifle, like in Red Faction Guerilla.
And maybe some sort of electric weapon.

I want to see a half transformed zombie thrashing about on the ground…

Yoiu know, spilling blood/ digestive system out of it’s chest, meat falling off of the forearms, fingers curled outward and overextending… shit like that.

It wouldn’t attack you, it’d just be somethinmg to see.

I predict it’s gonna be kickass!

Source or GTFO.

Wow, you just hate Gearbox of your whole heart, huh?

Personally, I doubt it. Valve has a habit of leaving a gajillion of unanswered questions in their games. We’ll probably see some epic scene with him in Ep. 3 if the Vorts let their guard down again…

Discuss :3

I think Valve will release a good chunk of information about him, but not enough so we know exactly what or who he is.

Then again, that is why we love him…because we don’t know who the hell he is…thats what makes him epic.

I suppose if they released everything about him…wouldn’t be as fun…ya’know?

I wouldn’t get my hopes up If I were you.

I think there is a whole thread about this

i have to say that the important part to me is not necessarily will the gman be explained but this…

I have recommended your services to my… employers, and they have authorized me to offer you a job. They agree with me that you have limitless potential. You’ve proved yourself a decisive man so I don’t expect you’ll have any trouble deciding what to do.

Who are G-mans employers?

to me the g-man is interesting because hes a pawn in and of himself.

the quotes from half life 1 at the end i belive

at least im pretty sure they say that… :frowning:

I think it’s possible we may get to use the Combine sniper rifle. It’s sort of a logical progression: first the enemy uses it, then a friend uses it, then we actually get to see it in an inactive state, now it makes sense that we may finally get to use it in the finale episode. Also, Valve tends to be bringing back some of the beta content, and I think the sniper rifle was originally intended to be usable.

(I’m not suggesting we’ll actually be able to pick it up and carry it with us, but it could be used mounted like the mounted suppressor guns.)

I don’t know about new weapons, but maybe another tool-like item such as the pherapod in HL2 (which was noticeably absent in the episodes). And i hope there’s a chance to use some sort of new mounted defense weapon for another siege scenario.

No, it’s just that I want to know if it’s true or not.

Looks like they’re planning on fleshing him out a little.

nah. everything will be answered in half-life 3.

But who’s gonna answer it? The G-Man would talk about himself to us? I don’t think so… my best hope was Eli but…

The Vorts maybe? They seem to be aware of his existance…

Yeah, they are aware of his existence… but I’m not sure how much they know about him. They released Freeman because he’s their best hope against the Combine.

And I just realized, shouldn’t this thread be here: https://forums.blackmesasource.com/showthread.php?t=39 ?

Founded in 2004, Leakfree.org became one of the first online communities dedicated to Valve’s Source engine development. It is more famously known for the formation of Black Mesa: Source under the 'Leakfree Modification Team' handle in September 2004.
