First time I played half life 2 20 years ago I didn't realize I should flip the buggy with gravity gun. I thought i had to reenable the power or something to make the crane work. I made the whole chapter on foot until the gunship fight. After that the rebel guy would not open the gate until you were in the car 😂 And in my defense I was 9 and didn't speak English and Half Life 1 had a lot ofoments like that. Go somewhere to enable or open something and go back to use the thing/door
Interesting how low-poly the map geometries are, even compared to later source games. Without the textures it sometimes looks like SM64. I guess the source engine can handle much more but they had to make it low-poly to make it run on peoples PCs in 2005...
Like the other commenter said: Pinsplash on a budget xD But seriously, it's a great video! Skits and good editing really complement already great executed "Easter Eggs and Facts"
@@nikkat its not a theory though, used to work at a Samsung factory and the signs meant for trucks had two signs, one flipped and one normal for this exact purpose
it took me until yesterday (10 years and 1 week from having first played the game) for me to realize that the ocean was being drained by the Combine and that's why the coast section looks as it does
3:09 This is incorrect. Take a right when going through the door into the Shorepoint Base warehouse (the area where Winston gets hit), and you'll find a crate containing an energy ball. 8:03 This gate can also be skipped by just jumping round the side of it. 11:33 The same issue can be seen in the rock props blocking you from the sea in the Antlion Guard arena in Sandtraps. 13:45 Pretty sure this is due to all those props being clipped through the ground. 15:15 That's due to those holes in the house's back wall actually being props. Also, here's a bit of trivia that I know: In d2_coast_01, for some reason the brown gravel-y dirt near the road leading to d2_coast_03 has the property of being slippery.
you re an actual madman, for some reason i never really checked if you do get them in any way when you actually play it (even tho i had marked it to check in script). respect
@@nikkat In case you're thinking this: No, I didn't go to check if there were any energy balls before the start of Highway 17 after watching this video. I actually stumbled upon that crate a while ago. Also, I just realised that you could also witness the "energy ball flipping the buggy upright" behaviour by progressing through Highway 17 without the buggy, and then going all the way back to d2_coast_01.
28 and played Half Life for the first time a couple months ago. Game is absolutely incredible and WATER HAZARD RULES, NERD! You guys just can't drive the airboat
very nice captions @ 3:13 you say that the player doesn't have access to energy balls when in the map just before the beginning of highway 17 you can find an energy ball
I have over 300 hours on HL2 and I never knew about that 2nd attic space in the big house near the lighthouse. Most of the other things I have noticed.
Sometimes, yeah. Sure. It just gets really tedious when you’ve done it for the thousandth time. You can’t even ABH in the chapter because of all the water.
this is awesome!! you went so in-depth on some of these, even down to checking them out with hammer! ^-^ really hope you make more of these, they're hilarious and interesting. шесть(четыре)
I came here thinking the video be like "The highway maps are based on a real highway called the Googieshemkle highway in the country of Gustawobbledoppel" or something like that Instead I learn the the chapter sure has a lot of texture issues..
extremely much nitpicking for a game which is released in 2004. that year the max ram capacity was 2 GB as i researched. The decision they made was mandatory.
Ram has nothing to do with the games several map issues,if these were fixed back then it wouldn’t impact the performance at all except for specific optimizations they did (windows fading out from afar)
@@cnbhop I do not know much technical knowledge about that. I just think that mapper mistakes was made on purpose due to 2000's technical limitations such as CPU,GPU etc. However, wish they have fixed that with updates.
Game was made around.. 20 years ago.. Tech was older back then, people looked over these things and weren’t as nit picky. Do ya think VALve really cares anymore? They’re not gonna update it, so don’t get mad, get even. Go fix the glitches and mistakes yourself if you’re able to make such a ‘complaint’ video. Hell, make a mod that fixes all these mistakes! Honestly, just my thoughts, if you’re going to complain about a 20 year old game that has issues and mistakes, just know that you can fix these issues (if you do know how to that is). Goodluck!
*0:25** i saw this beta map this coast scene. even i saw armor car and submarine parts. its very sad valve cut these from beta versions. and never saw on final version.*
This was a great video and a format. Interesting you started with coast but it probably makes sense because whoever was responsible hammering the chapters was a weird chap. Coast is my favorite chapter in Half-Life 2 and I think it still is after watching this but fuck you. Good video. Make more if you can.

Pinsplash on a budget. Very nice! Love weird half life facts. Rage moments are funny but a bit too intense for this style of video imo.
nono no the breakdowns make the video *better*
@@TimSosman They're very forced and kinda cringe
Not enough build up. If it was normal->irritated->annoyed->rage, instead of jumping into rage directly, it would've felt more natural.
i love slavic pinsplash with anger issues
This may be the best half life 2 facts video ever

4:21 might be intentional? Being flipped would mean trucks would read it correctly from the rear view mirror when backing in to unload.
cool theory, nice
@@nikkat its not a theory though, used to work at a Samsung factory and the signs meant for trucks had two signs, one flipped and one normal for this exact purpose
Highway 17 is a sea not an ocean
Many people don't know the difference
for a sea to become a sea it needs to be conected with a river. and for a ocean to become an ocean it needs to be conected with another ocean or sea.
bro is the personification of "valve pls fix"

Barely over one minute in, awesome intro sequence, but the script for the first fact already gave me whiplash. I can tell I'm gonna love this.
WHAT IT MEANT TO ME WILL EVENTUALLY BE A MEMORY
These are the nitpickest nitpicks Ive ever seen.
now i need dark theme hammer
im using rectify11 to apply dark theme on basically everything
Yeah, maybe I should get topped by a rail, or whatever you said
1:45 very minor note but vertices is the plural of vertex(singular) which would've been the correct word here.
1:04 what did he mean by this 🤨
4:33 Tonight!
Eli gets reunited with his foot!
Gordon gets an offer he can't refuse!

damn valve really were rushing to get this game out lol

The fucking top gear s3 awards james may song is awesome
8:43 well we found valve didn't add on lamba.
Why is no one mentioning that majestic cover at the end???
*coast was so interesting from part of game.*
Ahahaha I love how mad you get on occasion its great
I wasn't ready for that ending. What year is it??
i love the old fire particles
1:05 HUH???
in coast11, there is a floating orange box placed out of bounds at the left side of a map and for god knows whatever reason plays the generator noise
very great quality for such a small channel
Still my fav chapter lol
this is awesome!! you went so in-depth on some of these, even down to checking them out with hammer! ^-^
really hope you make more of these, they're hilarious and interesting.

How did you get Hammer++ to be dark?

i forgot that your channel exists

Please more!!! I love such kind of videos so much (I make mods :D)
Those are frustrated nitpickings

Pretty much every game from the 2000's had these "mapper mistakes".

Considering Half Life 2 was the first game to use the Source Engine, it's a PRIME example of how scuffed the Source Engine is.
13:01 there is also a creepy zombie scream coming from the tunnel even if you managed to completely clear it out of them.
