      (though it does make them feel a lot more human in a weird way? brain says "jiggle = human") ((edit: as in, look at any of the other run/walk cycles, feels more like theyre being pulled forwards by a chest harness while hers/theirs have more.... i wanna say fluidity but thats prolly wrong, since its 2 things moving slightly out of sync))

    I do find it interesting that in the later events of the Black Mesa Incident you can can start to see how civilization is falling apart. Lots of human vs. human fighting. I can imagine the Black Ops teams' kill orders against HECU being given from a gov official as a sort of "back ally deal", where most other military board members might not know and they did it to save their own ass.

    In Opposing Force, the Black Ops are initially presented much like the H.E.C.U are in the original game. They appear as fierce combatants, well organized, superpably equipped and always taking advantage of the surrounding enviornments. Even after his initial encounter with them, Adrian still mostly finds bodies of his fellow marines scattered across the facility, or pockets of remaining surviors of his unit pinned down and surrounded by the B.O's, but never, until the penultimate chapter, does he see the B.O's casualties, or them generally being at a disadvantage. This is where the story telling of OpForce succeeds in presenting this elite force, as superior to the H.E.C.U, but as we find out in the penultimate episode, where Adrian stumbles upon a fierce battle beteen the Race-X creatures and B.Os, that not even this elite force can hold their own against the unending tide of aliens. This mirrors the events we also witness towards the finalle of the "Forget About Freeman" and "Lambda Core" chapters, where slowly, the marines who appeared to be in control until now, begin to break and loose their ground to the aliens.

    I never understood what was the government's plan here. They had to expect HECU to also witness the effects of the resonance cascade while on their mission (they knew shit went down bad which is why they were ordered to kill all personel). So either they were trusted not to reveal it to the public or they were planned to be killed off from the beginning. We know the first option is not true because the soldiers had no idea what was going on beforehand (as we see in OF intro), and because Black Ops were sent. So, if remaining hecu were planned to be killed by black ops, why didn't they sent only the black ops in the first place, who were trusted and not care about any witnesses (apart from scientists)? Is it because they were fewer in numbers so they used hecu as cannon meat to be killed off by aliens first so it's simpler to just kill the survivors by black ops? But then they can't guarantee that the hecu can't just pull out of Black Mesa, which by the way is exactly what happened, so black ops didn't even achieve their goal as the witnesses managed to escape - the secret is out either way. Or did they also want to kill the escaping ones as soon they landed back at the base? But then it's just simpler to not let them escape...

    The blackops units were definitely hard, but they could've been harder. Again, we are playing as theoretical physicist with no actual training. I feel like being able to even take down the blackops unit, goes completely against the tone the game was trying to go far. Gordan being able to take out the military guys was enough, now it made Gordan seem like Jason Bourne.
    (PS: I wouldve liked to see Gordon maybe have to do a stealth portion in vents or otherwise to avoid the black ops units. That could've also showed the units interrogating and killing off everyone from the vents/hidey hole. Idk, maybe im wrong but i feel like that wouldve really hit the nail on the head, your not there to fight, your there to survive.

    I believe the black ops soldiers were originally gonna be something like the Replica Forces from the Fear Series and the MTF from SCP. Cloned/Disposable super spec ops soldiers who specialize in operations dealing with the other worldly hostiles. From there they became the first wave of combine forces but this was probably scarped.

    I know the Black Ops in OpFor only exist to give the player humanoid enemies similar to the HECU. While the Black Ops in OpFor were pretty underwhelming, I can understand why since Gearbox put way more time and effort into other aspects such as the expanded arsenal, alien types, and Otis(the best Half Life character).

The current black op females are bad enough, flipping 20ft into the air and the insane instant run speeds. Very unbelievable. Great video btw.

    In the war , no have limit to use the wapons .
    The assassin would use the better wapon to kill you .
    In may opinion , the Valve should include the crossbow to assassin famale, but , other wise ,take away her's abilit to jump and leap to bacwards ,becaming them a bit slow .
    When finish her's crossbow ammunition and she abandon the gun , or you kill her, you take her crossbow and nighvision googles, granades knifes away. The gordon could already be equipad whit nightvision stolen from hecu body .
    The player could use the objects as a shield like a barrels or box .
    So this wold balance the dificult and no would lose the realism and logic.
