The die animations are actually meant to play, it's just an oversight that the game considers just being grabbed by a barnacle as instant death and automatically converts those npcs into ragdolls.
Khalil Atofiv I do believe so , also some games back in the day had an option to disable ragdolls so old computers could handle the game without loosing too much fps.
Easy to forget that the striders are actually alive, but biomechanically modified. I wonder if they do need sleep. I suppose that's sort of like recharging a battery or refueling an engine?
@Koray Meydan as a man that played Half Life 1 much, I can confirm that this not exactly from Hl2. This soundtrack firstly played in HL1 intro in that tram
@@sleepyblockanimations1482 it is infact from half life 2, not from half life 1, listen to Vague voices. the hl1 soundtrack. then to this one. completely different.

yeah amazing, just the other day I saw a pixel in HL2 that I've never seen before. truly mind bending discoveries being made about this game all these years later
3:10 My only guess on why the vortigaunt has tau cannon animations is because either: 1:They’re placeholder animations from HL1 for the vortigaunt attacking 2: a vortigaunt was maybe meant to show you how the tau cannon worked before the vort mounted the tau cannon onto the buggy before you started driving it during the Coast/vechile sections Though I could be entierely wrong
You where meant to get your tau canon taken off the buggy by a vort in sandtraps at the lighthouse Also the vort in nova prospekt was meant to be alive and able to give ammo to the tau cannon
I would actually like to see the Alyxgun in-game. Imagine a pistol turning into a pistol rifle on the spot. Probably some balances here and there but it would be cool.
Probably because of lore reasons.. i mean after all these are highly modified creatures. The combine most likely got rid of their need for sleep during the process of Turing the creature into the strider
@@metalc.s3170 Maybe it's like a power recharging thing? Perhaps they need to recharge so they can shoot their guns, both of their guns shoot energy stuff afterall.
I miss this game series so much, hearing the ambience playing in the video gives me flashbacks of hl1. I dont think there will ever be a game to top what halflife brought to the gaming world
It's been years and to this very day I keep discovering new HL2 beta content. At this point I'm convinced that they removed/didn't use 90% of what they could have added in the retail version.
I can see why 1:35 was cut. It's like the Antlion is shouting, "woo-hoo! look at me!" 2:33 In Episode 2, they got around the Vortigaunt climbing animation by redesigning the maps around ladders so you would never actually see him climb. Then, they just teleported him to the top of the ladder when he was out of your view.
I believe that the striders sleeping animation was to show that they are still animals but under the combines control so they still had a bit of themselves in there
The vortigaunt's stomp animation was later used for a.. "Takedown" for zombies in Half-Life 2: Episode 2, it's different, but I think they used the animated and di some re-working on it to look cool.
Did anyone else try to catch the vortigaunt climbing ladder in episode 2, only to catch a glimpse of him teleporting into his new position like nothing? So they actually did consider animating that, and have him climb the ladder
The source engine is pretty limited. NPCs can’t climb ladders themselves. While you can script them to look like the are climbing up but it will just result in them looking like they are sliding up the ladder. Valve couldn’t probably figure it out and just made the vortiguant teleport up offscreen.
Ok for real now The alyxgun animation was a scrapped concept where the play could use the gun If you right click it stretches out and turns into a rifle
I think the alyx gun is cool as a weapon concept. A pistol that switches back and forth to a shotgun and a rifle. I hope HL:A uses the concept for that gun.
The first headcrab are just idle animations when alert right? atleast i'm sure i've seen them do that when idle Edit: i also believe the one of the barnicle animations are used
You can see how much love there's for a saga if way more than one hundred thousand people just stopped by to watch a bunch of unused old animations from a 14 years old game... long live to Half Life!
2:18 that animation is also used in half life 2 beta. vortigaunts were suppoused to use as an energy source in City 17. There was a cage in witch combine machines would suck out energy out of vortigaunt.
I know but it was beta. Things might have changed during development. I mean look at this video : "Half-Life 2: BETA - BUILD 2046 - Full Walkthrough 【NO Commentary】 【60FPS】" exactly at 2:02 you can see this animation.
Years ago I used to run a Gmod Wiremod sever, and I think one of the non-standard custom mods I had setup within wiremod, allowed using the Expression2 coding to activate all the attached animations hidden in a model. Basically allowed me to create fake hologram NPCs that animated and did stuff around the map, that really freaked out players who'd never seen those animations before, and couldn't figure out how I was getting NPCs to do strange custom stuff. lol
Very interesting stuff! A lot can be learned about the earlier versions of Half-Life 2 from this. Vorts were originally supposed to use tau cannons, and could get caught by barnacles during combat. Antlion guard originally had stealth AI. Poison headcrab could spit poison. And of course, Alyx Gun was originally usable by the player, as a hybrid Machine-Pistol/Rifle
@@anusburger8487 That is true, I've seen it myself. Still, the lack of a viewmodel continues to make me feel doubtful about the intention as to whom is supposed to hold the alyxgun. Additionally, Gregory is wielding his own Weapon, the Annabelle, which can also be wielded by the Player, but it isn't meant to be carried by the Player in the first place-
