Got a Quick Suggestion? - Small suggestions that don't need their own thread

Without redoing Uplink, some setpieces can be used. For example, at one point the HECU try to get to Gordon using a blowtorch to open a closed metal door. You only have a short amount of time to find an alternate exit before the HECU get to you.

Squishables cockroaches is definitely a must for releasing BM. Beside, it was in Half-life.

But in Black Mesa they will be only a particle effect. No squishable cockroaches.

Well… They USED to be squishable. Back in their code-based form. :frowning:

They are not squishable. This is so that there can be a flood of them without it causing issues. Or so it seems.

Non squishable bugs?

I am disappoint.

BTW: I’ve got a deja vu. Same situation here and in MassEffect. Why you developers can’t keep the major features in game?

Squeeze cockroaches is a main feature ?

SERIOUSLY :hmph:

:brow:

SOMEWHERE in Black Mesa, you must feature a flood of cockroaches. I.E., after the rocket launch, before you meet the Gargantua, when you start the fan generator; SOMEWHERE! Tis’ the only way to make up for them not being squishable. :frowning:

oh that is not a problem

disemboweled corpse ragdolls? with jigglebone entrails? are those in?

pics or it didnt happen

I just had a look at the characters page. And loved the new look for the assassin. But the HECU trooper disappointment me they completely lost the PCV (Powered combat vests).

Any way my suggestion is why not make a original HECU marine. So in game you will have the standard rookies. Then you will have the tooled up HECU with the PCV, gas masks, Helments, night vision goggles. You know like the combine elite troops. But have the elite marines.

They can look like this.

they’re remaking a great game, not creating a scifi space-epic
The player is given the unique advantage of his HEV suit. To suggest any sort of parity by the human grunts would be contradictory to the game’s premise.

The PCV always looked kinda bulky, even if it was a cool concept.

The Powered Combat Vest is the only thing the devs removed from the HECU marines, I guess. Everything else jarms48a said will be included.

btw The scifi space grunt looks a bit like some kind of Warhammer 40k creature.

Whatever that is, it looks godawful.

It’s “there”, it’s just their combat vest.
The PCV was a cheap way of providing armor without adding or removing too much code, so wouldn’t be worth adding in BM. Op4 is not canon.

You can always skin them into PCV when the mod release.

That looks kinda gay. BM’s HECU looks way better. I am gonna go ahead and vote no on your suggestion.

OMG! Who are you and what have you done with Eric?
[COLOR=‘Black’]His grammar and spelling was almost flawless!

I am sorry jarms48a, but he looks more like he belongs on an “corps r us” catwalk fashion show than in actual combat. =\

A for effort tho. Rarely do we see some solid tries like this.
