The Black OPS make no sense

Half-Life Series
#41

Reverse continuity, like magnussen’s casserole, or alyx being rescued by the g-man over the opposition of breen

#42

I think the black ops team was called in specifically to deal with freeman.

However, later on, the government realized that not even the most elite assassin’s in the world could contain the consequences from the resonance cascade, and they were then given orders to nuke the facility with a Mark 4 thermonuclear device.

Also: inb4 ‘‘cool story, bro’’

#43

We are team more that a friend, my “brother”.

#44

It’s still canon. And how do you know that Breen was the one who opposed the rescue of Alyx. G-Man only ever says naysayers.

#45

Perhaps, you’re correct, I thought that before the HECU was established in Op4 with its shaky canoninity* it was the Marine Corps. Could be wrong. Also, I’ve never played Halo.

  • Yes, made up word
#46

I always thought they were Army because the Apache says “ARMY” on it.

#47

Hmm, would you believe I never noticed that? Or maybe I did, but it’s been two years or so since my last playthrough so I simply forgot.

#48

During the heart to heart there is a very distorted face that flashes behind the g-man when he speaks of ignoring naysayers when quelling them is out of the question. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk8IdP-upKY @1:01
All though the image is heavily distorted, it looks like breen.

#49

Can’t see that it’s Breen tbh. Could be anything. Only Valve knows. :retard:

#50

I think it is Breen. I know you can’t see it clearly, but I can just feel it.
Strange.

EDIT
I went through every frame, And I think this is the best one.

#51

You can see it clearly, its obviously G-man. Notice the tie (which Breen does not wear.)

#52

You have focused the wrong guy.
They talk about the deformed head.

#53

you can see the gman superimposed over the blurred face but both are there

#54

wait so there’s three characters in that shot? gman in the chair, gman on the screen, and a blurred face? I only see the 1st 2.

#55

Matt, I think you’re looking at the other Gman, He’s not on the screen.

Look at the video again.

And yes, I think they’re both there.

Have a look at the image scaled down.

I can already see that scaling it down improves the visibility dramatically.

#56

Your’re right, it does look more like there are 2 faces on the screen when you scale it down. And it does look breen-ish.

#57

This should settle this. I never noticed that, some time ago I recorded that sequence and by doing a frame by frame scan I got it. Maybe it’s just a nod that he was the Administrator of the facility?

I also noticed this pic:

Weird…

#58

Oh wow, that second image is cool. Wonder if it’s something to do with the Combine or Gman…

#59

Either way, the gman-breen connection just got a little thicker. It only took me two years to notice. Kind of the wrong thread for this. Maybe one of the all powerful, time stopping, make it so you were never born moderators can shuffle this into the proper thread

#60

it’s that image of gman from Water Hazard. probably just filler.
