      This has sort of already been done. I can't for the life of me remember that it is called, but it is part of an RTSL map pack. I can't remember which one it is, either. Basically, Barney fails to stop Gordon getting on the damn train and you take control of a resistance fighter who has to fight his way across a speeding train to free him. It is kind of a comedy mod since the player character keeps cracking oneliners.

    Many players were probably wondering: why the hell is Alyx climbing over the railing instead of going around them? When I first saw this scene, I assumed it was a leftover from when Half-Life 2 was a very cyberpunk game with narrow hideouts, basements, pipe crossings, endless thick cables all around (Giger style), and Alyx had to often move by crawling, jumping and climbing like a cat or a monkey. Then the game radically changed the style, but this strange jump over the railing remained, as if some developer was passionately in love with the style that the rest abandoned.

    Alyx died a tragic death, Freeman’s teleportation was a neat success, no combine was led to the rebels HQ, Freeman united the free people, a coup was carefully orchestrated to take down the combine with minimal casualties on both sides, Gman wasn’t happy since no war and chaos, Humanity’s coup on Combine was a success, but Gman interfered to “stir up the hive”, remaining combine and humanity finally realized their true enemy which is Gman and his employers at Valve, Humanity and Combine teamed up to beat Gman and break out of the video game, succeeded, real life humanity got to utilize Combine technologies in peace and prosperity, all the worlds futuristic powers were spend on making a Half Life 3, but this time called Full Life 3 instead and is just about happy people and animals living happily on an island together.

    Well, basically if Alyx fall and break her neck dying right after, Freeman would take a while to find out that the soda machine is a secret passage and would manage to teleport without fail, just like Alyx did before the headcrab screw up the teleportation system. That way Morgan wouldn't have to pass through so many things in the game.
