The invisible walls you encounter in the water are func_push, which are intended to causes resistance from the flow of water. Crouching doesn't deliver enough speed to overcome the push.
6:13 If you pressed to the right you would have been able to fly directly on the pipe and if you're lucky directly into the opening of it. 33:33 Btw there is a Counter-Strike singleplayer game called "Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes". Maybe that would be another last time doing an official Valve game without standing.
@@Iamtotallynotboredisrealyea but deleted scenes seems more fitting for a no-standing run since DS has like actual single player campaign gameplay while CZ is just regular counter strike matches but with npcs
33:15 As far as I'm concerned you did everything you could to avoid any benefits that might come from not being crouched, so you're still in good... standing. I have numerous quibbles with Valve games here and there but one thing I've always quite liked is that it feels like, whether by accident or by design, they have forgiving design for platforming. As long as you are close enough to a platform, you generally can make the jump to it, even if it visually appears as though you are briefly standing on air. This could be a limitation of older game engines and bounding boxes, but it happens often enough (and with a few other minor details such as environmental hazards occasionally not ticking until you've been in them long enough to ensure that it wasn't just a fluke) that I'm inclined to think it's a deliberate design choice to not punish newer or casual players for seeing the spirit of the solution but not perfectly executing it.
You could try doing a wallbug at 15:51 to avoid fall damage. You managed with the fall damage so it wasn't crucial or anything, but extra health is always nice to have. You can do a wallbug by walking into an angled wall at some angle. You might also be able to use a jumpbug, but those are tick perfect and may require you to change the framerate for them to even be possible.
I wanted to say something that nobody else pointed out! The sound/music design that you put in this video definitely make this a great video (as well as the video itself)
"Half-Life: Joe Swanson edition", also a random fact: family guy first aired on the same year half life: opposing force released, in 1999, family guy initially came out on the 31st of January, and opposing force released on the 19th of november.
@@KazyMatman You can, it's just slower and have a LOT less air control than standing, for the hazard course you can also make a bind to instant uncrouch, jump crouch to use the jetpack thing
Aperature desk job standingless% please! On a more serious note, Left 4 Dead 1&2 have an option to play single player, and you could also try come community mods like Entropy Zero 1 and 2.
some of these jumps could have been avoided with bunnyhopping also during the apprehension cutscene you're actually teleported to a spot behind the hp station and can move around
@@KazyMatman i think it has to do with the game's teleporting system, in that when you're crouched, it teleports you incorrectly into the ground instead of where you're supposed to be. i've had this happen in the final map of interloper as well. could try jumping maybe to offset the height? not sure
Gunman Chronicles crouch only, if you can find a physical copy floating around on the second-hand market? One of the better Gold Source games, but never got a digital release due to rights issues.
I almost forgot to tell you a fun fact: For Black Mesa you don't even need the +duck command. This is a native built in feature in the games settings called "Toggle Crouch".
Yeees, perfect thing to watch while eating my afternoon apple juice, it's finally time for the original game ! Edit, also I am disappointed, you forgot the usual "the duck command also works in this game" disliked.
Uncrouching should be allowed while jumping, swimming, and climbing ladders, since you’re not technically standing. To stand, your feet must be on the ground.
You're technically correct, (the best kind of correct) but allowing that would really muddy the rules for the challenge more than I already did in the 2 sections mentioned.
@@KazyMatman The original model depicted an MP-5 with an M203 grenade launcher, in the HD textures it was switched with an M16 that also has a grenade launcher
@@KazyMatman The MP5 is not traditionally seen with a grenade launcher, no. It took me until Jonathan Ferguson reviewed the Half Life guns on youtube for me to actually see one "for real", even having previously known that the M203 grenade launcher specifically advertises compatibility with the MP5 platform :'D
fwiw, you don't need to spend a full $1000 on the index kit to play VR if you wanna stick to brand new hardware, the quest 2 is $300, and the quest 3 is $500. but if you're willing to check out the used market, there's quest 2s, quest 1s, and oculus rift Ss, all available for pretty cheap (from best to worst for PC VR, i'd say its the rift s, quest 2, and then quest 1. but you can also find quest 1s under $100 sooooo) but also if you were struggling with black mesa, i feel like alyx might be a bit of a stretch on your hardware. what's your specs?
I would personally love to see you do that in TF2 and I think it doesn't need an endgoal, it could just be done by playing crouched for few matches/hours and then reflecting on what different experiences and challenges it brought compared to normal game.
enough stalling? nah, enough standing
ok, now play the game without crouching
crouchless%
*stucks on the first vent*
that's impossible
It's entirely possible. Look up and watch the Half-Life Done Enormously Warped speedrun, which completes the entire game without crouching already.
2:29 he was so nice, he also went to bed for Gordon so he doesnt have to look after him! Such generous soul 😊
I like to think that Gordon is actually just small
Short kings get it done
my theory is that he broke his legs lol
Gordon is just too tired to get up.

That's neat. I love learning new things about these games through challenge runs. Also, I've seen some of your videos and really enjoy them!
Oh wow, ,you can shoot the MP5 grenades out of the air? That's cool. Didn't know you could do that in Half-Life.
That was news to me too!
i though that it was cool of you not using the funny unlimited health door glitch, cuz that would've probably taken away like 50% of the challenge lol
I actually made a hard save there just in case but didn't need it.
2:07 I'm actually happy ninhilanth rolled a nat 20, that made this campaign a whole lot more fun
6:13 If you pressed to the right you would have been able to fly directly on the pipe and if you're lucky directly into the opening of it. 33:33 Btw there is a Counter-Strike singleplayer game called "Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes".

I didn't know any counter strikes were single player. I'll have to check it out.
There's deleted scenes and just condition zero

Counter Strike has a single player game. Condition Zero deleted scenes.
Great idea. Also there is a lack of Challenges with that game I think?
But yeah, definitely a candidat

It's for free on ModDB btw and also compatible with the current steam version of Half-Life.
this is actually pretty impressive!

i personally dont think hazard course counts because its a optional thing that the game just kinda has.
