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

My bad

About moths earlier,

Hello. I think it would be badass if instead of just being like any other attack, bullsquid spit acted more like a toxin. maybe blurred vision, slow health loss after it, hell maybe do like L4D and have your vision go all green and slimy (boomer). I just think for an enemy with potential to be cool and exciting, the bullsquid just really bores the hell out of me. thank you.

oh, quick question: do roaches do damage? if not to Gordon, then do they hurt scientists? i got bit by a big roach and it hurt like a motherfucker.

No, roaches will act just like in hl1. You can step on them or not. Oh and every time you double post, god kills a kitten so use the edit button :wink:

Those are not moths. It looks more like dust created by func_dustmotes

im surprised he didn’t ask when it’s gonna be released …

i suggest the green thing that gargantua shoot at you [ if that’s what gargantuas are ] to bounce like the gun that charges pressure :-? , but not very much , i mean , that’s what it would do in real life

I’m gonna start guessing here:

By “gargantua” you mean Vortigaunt and the “green thing” is the Vorts lightning.
The “gun that charges pressure” would be the Tau Cannon then, rite?

not vortigaunt , the lizzard like thing with black leopards on it;s back that shoots acied , and maybe the tau cannon , i dunno about the names , as you may have noticed , comment the idea not my disinterest in names pls xD , i think the game would be the same cool as it’s now with all the models named from a to z , it’s like , the gameplay which you pLAY that matters

The bullsquid?

What did the English language ever do to you! STOP THE PAIN!

except acied , what r my mistakes there?

Sentences start with a capital letter.
There should be a ‘the’ before the word ‘vortigaunt’.
There is no space between a comma and the preceding word.
‘Lizard’ has one ‘z’.
“Lizard like” should really be hyphenated (possibly contentious).
“Leopards” - WTF? Should be “spots”.
“It;s” - apostrophe, not semicolon, and in any case the apostrophe doesn’t belong here.
“Acied” - already mentioned.
“Comment on the idea, not my…”
“Pls” - textspeak is not appropriate outside of a phone or, possibly, a chatroom.
“i” should be capitalised.
“The same cool as” should be “just as cool as”.
“As it’s now” - bad place to use a contraction, use “it is” here.
“The gameplay which you play” - hello, welcome to the Department of Redundancy Dept., and hello.
The entire paragraph needs to have more than one sentence in it.

That just about cover it?

On topic: I don’t see why the bullsquid’s spittle should act in any way or form like the tau cannon. One’s a glob of toxic liquid, the other is some kind of charged energy blast.

tau cannon shoots LIQUID … how is that NOT clear? [not energy]

The Tau cannon is an energy weapon - why would it be powered by plutonium packs, have spinning magnets and be able to penetrate walls if it would shoot some kind of liquid?

What? It shoots energy: a tau is like an electron (sort of), ergo, it’s an energy weapon. It doesn’t even look like it shoots liquid.

I think you must be referring to a different gun. The tau cannon does not shoot liquid (the clue is in the name - a ‘tau’ is a subatomic particle).

For the sake of clarity, this is the Tau Cannon:

I’m having a hard time thinking of any of Gordon’s weapons which do shoot liquid, though…

Edit: Jesus H Christ, double-team ninja action :ninja:

Also, the Tau Cannon is the only weapon capable of “charging pressure”.

Maybe he’s talking about the gluon gun but even that doesn’t shoot liquids.

@ Lamsey :

For the sake of clarity, I’m disapointed :[

the yellow beam in the story mode looks like impossibly pressurised liquid to me , and the big thing that you carry in the backpack seems like the one that is burning the liquid to project energy , why would you need pressure in a energy weapon? , why does the wall impact look like it does , it’s liquid man , and i recall the name that appeard in the console back when i played was not tau cannon , but that was the weapon i was refering to yes

, how would you explain pressure based damaege [ grammar fail ]

remember if you click 1 you squirt jets if you charge pressure then release it’s pretty clear that the jet is more thick and fast …

Dude, I recommend you stop now, you’re just digging yourself a hole. It is not a liquid. Also, the alternative name you are thinking of is the gauss gun.
