Raising the bar

Half-Life Series
#21

I did…it’s called the LHC

#22

A true fan would make a working HEV suit complete with a morphine administering device.

And you didn’t make the LHC, Piefish. Stop lying.

#23

I did too, I am CERN

And I made a HEV Suit too…it’s called lycra

#24

I read RtB back when ep1 came out and I got interested in half life again.

#25

I am a Half Life fan because i wrote RtB

#26

A real fan would go back in time and change the world so that Episode 3 and Black Mesa would be out already

#27

I went forward in time and never came back.

#28

i’m the man from the past, and this shit’s outta whack.

#29

i thought this thread will become a “a true half life fan” thread
I am disappoint…

#30

So I got me a copy of this and read it, and I’m just wondering:

What was “the hoard” supposed to be? On page 80 it talks about a cut creature called the sacktick (dur hur hur) and it says it was engineered by the same race that created the hoard, and bears hoard markings.

#31

I have no idea. I have the pdf myself but I printed it out. Such a nice read.

#32

There are a lot of things that aren’t mentioned in the book. It says somewhere there was a tonne of cut stuff and this was just some of it

#33

This.

#34

A real half-life fan would be playing HL through Episode 2 over and over again and not waste time visiting messageboards boasting about how much of a fan he is, especially not a board dedicated to an amateur project that wants to recreate (and potentially destroy) the HL legacy.

#35

then again no

#36

why the book called raising the bar.

the only raising was the handle when you accidentally the tracks after you intentionally the gargantua

#37

raising the (crow)bar
and also half-life 1 and 2 are generally regarded as being very influential on the FPS genre, thus they “raised the bar” of first-person shooters.

get it? :freeman:

#38

I bought my copy of the book back when it still only cost $25US. U jelly?

Also, it’s the greatest book ever like seriously.

#39

Got it for free…so no

#40

Got it for free… but yeah… best read EVER!
