HL2 Ep3 plot speculation thread (NO SILLY THEORIES)

in EP3 there will be a crowbar and headcrabs

Finally something that sounds realistic! How did you come up with a theory like that?

also cocks

^roosters? Is the game going to be set on Gordon and Alyx’s farm? Did the Borealis teleport there? This is going to be wierd…

Yes a farm in which they raise cocks.

Erectin’ a cock :lol:

You guys sure must love cocks.

Everything is better with cocks.
Except pr0n.

What are we talking about here again?[/size]

OT: Why do people always mention “IT WAS ALL A DREAM!” version in all of the plot spec threads? It seems so … cliche and unprofessional.

Yay, TF2 update not involving hats!
Oh, wait…
:fffuuu:

What are you talking about!? I just like putting them in my mouth and suck on them!

I don’t think the HL series is over. They can’t end it with Alyx’s father dyeing. I mean him dyeing has no particular necessity or reason in the EP2 plot line, so it has to make sense in EP3. All the talk about the Borealis is also interesting, and is like a teaser, so it would be pointless to not continue that idea.

I’m sure Valve already has the EP3 story, and they already had it when making EP2. EP2 is the only HL game that begs for a sequel. HL1 and HL2 all ended in a satisfying way. EP1 ended with the train ride out of the city, but it wasn’t really a cliffhanger (unless we remember the early trailers of EP2 where Alyx was literally hanging at the edge of a cliff). EP2, however has too many loose ends. There has been too much thinking going on on Valve’s part to just “forget it”. I don’t see why they would stop HL, as it’s got a huge fan base and it’s very famous.

I think we will have an announcement about EP3 sometime in the future, probably within a year or something. I doubt it would be HL3: what would be the difference between EP2 and HL3? The length? In that case, HL3 would take forever to make and it would be nowhere near completion at this time.

Valve said they are moving past the episodic model, but who said they’re not 80% done with EP3 already, and that it’s just the last episodic game they will do? Just because they’re done with it doesn’t mean they won’t finish what they started. It just makes sense.

I just think they’re taking their time.

Who said there wont be a sequel?

DiePoente, Dotard. But it doesn’t really matter, because they’re wrong.

What else did Aperture make? Shower curtains. Will it be full of shower curtains? Probably not. And we know it has an unstationary scaffold and material emancipation grill, as per the blueprints.

I have one question which I have absolutely no idea if it has been discussed before.

if GLADOS signed the blueprints of the borealis why its dock is on the old Aperture labs?

Because they hadn’t written Portal 2 yet when they made Episode 2. :stuck_out_tongue:

The Borealis dock being able to be seen in Portal 2 is just an easter egg and valve’s way of fucking with our heads

Pessimistic people.

People who care too much about Half Life to get their hopes up.

I’d be pretty funny to see Freeman ending up in some sample Portal test chambers on the Borealis, solving them like Chell. Except with firearms instead of a portal gun. E.g. blasting through the exit doors.
