And the HECU run into clearly visible tripmine lasers…and throw grenades with abandon, sometimes even killing their compatriots…trigger discipline is the last thing on my mind in a VIDEO GAME.
GUESS WHAT SOMETIMES SCIENTIST TIES GO THROUGH THEIR COAT CUFFS HAHA I JUST RUINED THE REST OF THE GAME FOR YOU
Get over yourself. If you care about LOLREEL that much, go sign up for the millitary instead of sitting around complaining about videogames.
Dude, why did you say that? Now we gotta wait another 4 years for them to fix it!
We have to wait 4 more years anyway, what’s the big deal.
Yeah, on top of the 4 we have to wait for them to fix the fingers…
It’s okay. Whatever. I can wait. I wont play it if the soldiers have ugly fingers because it ruins the game.
Have a small issue with something in the game? JOIN THE ARMY! ARMY STRONG!
You guys are like disguised recruiters.
I’m only pointing out something. It’s simply a bored observation of “Oh look, there’s somebody portraying something they didn’t even go through the trouble to research. Again.” It’s just kind of lame.
Do I really give two hobo turds about it? Not really, or I wouldn’t play the rest of the Half Life series, would I?
Jesus. :facepalm:
If it’s not a big deal then why bring it up at all?
Ugggghhhhhhhh.
You care enough about it to say it’s stupid, annoying as hell and that the devs are half assing the animations.
Get over yourself and stop backpaddling.
I’m not back-paddling (?) lol, I do consider it half-assed. I do LIKE things to be as realistic as possible. But I mean, whatever, it obviously isn’t affecting the popularity of the mod or anything, and there’s even a rabid pack of forum members ready to flame the piss out of me for bringing it up.
TL;DR - Haters gonna hate.
Well, I hate to break it to you (I don’t) but if you like realism then you’re barking at the wrong tree. HL1 and, by extension, BM are not focused on making things super realistic and authentic.
If you think HL is better with iron-sights and trigger discipline and what have you, then you’re probably better off making your own Super Duper Ultra Realistic HL1 Remake.
its already been made, its called Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Yeah, I know HL isn’t meant for realism. But it’s awesome enough that I love it anyways. 
Good grief, if you’re looking for realism, CoD is not the place to go.
Hahaha, yeah, for once I have to agree with you there as well. 
Heh, for real. 
restless, the point is this:
the effort/result ratio is extremely low for the following reasons:
a) it requires a substantial amount of work to animate/code a thing like this
b) less than 1% of the people playing the mod would notice it because 99% of the time you won’t be close enough to even be able to see it
BUH BUH BUH BUUT THATS NOT HNNRRRGHREAHULISTIC UAAAAUUUNNH
Yeah, I understand bur, it’s cool.
Wow, you’re so clever.
Realism?
I was playing Half Life 2: Episode 2 just a little while ago and I killed a Combine soldier. His body flew backwards, towards a barrel. Then went THROUGH the barrel and ended up with his feet sticking out from the barrel.
Also, I found a rebel with his head in a wall.
Professionalism?
Damn thats so stupid VALVe sure is a half assed company I would be so annoyed if that ever happened to me
