Your Favourite HL2 Weapon

[Alyxx Thorne]

I know this may be a bit redundant since I already know a lot of people's favourite weapon. But let's hear it anyway!

Nothing like the crowbar, so useful in so many ways.

[Kirkreng]

Even though the crowbar is the more iconic weapon, i am going to stick with the shotgun as my favorite weapon.

[Alyxx Thorne]

My personal favourite is the pulse rifle used by the overwatch, mostly for its incredible reload time.

[Jek Jek Roo]

Pulse rifle was good, but my favourite is...hmm... "Organic Zero Point Energy Field Manipulator" that means gravity gun after the change

[ThePhunMaster]

Crossbow.

[jumpyed]

Glock

[Bjossi]

The pulse rifle. A futuristic weapon done really well in my opinion. The only bad thing is how little ammo you could carry.

 

And the sound effects, my goodness Valve are good at this. Have you ever tried to fire the pulse rifle while playing the game with a big sub-woofer and speakers hooked to the PC? Each pulse shot makes the photos on the walls of my room rumble, holding down mouse button 1 = instant eargasm. The shotgun and magnum also have a thundering sound effect but they don't fire nearly as rapidly.

I thought it was only called Zero-Point Energy Field Manipulator, not Organic... unless you mean the Super Gravity Gun that is.

What, no poll?

 

Honestly, the Glock... I have a mouse macro that lest me fire it about as fast as the Pulse Rifle.

 

I did however make a mod of the Pulse Rifle that got rid of most of that excess recoil, improved accuracy slightly, and increased ammo... That was my favorite weapon when modded.

I tried making a poll but it wouldn't let me include every weapon from HL2. Said it was too many options. So instead I thought I'd just make it a general topic.

It have a 10 options limit

[Alyxx Thorne]

Oh well, guess I can include an "other" option. Everyone vote!

[jumpyed]

Man this makes me want to play through HL2 again.

Gravity Gun, yes, you mean the orange one, I was thinking about the blue one when you're inside the citadel

[Alyxx Thorne]

Ah yeah, that one is more organic compatible.

[Bjossi]

I thought the blue one was just "supercharged", judging by that whole display of the gravity gun sucking in some energy before you can pick it up.

[Lord Sinister]

My vote goes to the gravity gun, because physics manipulation is almost always fun.

[Alyxx Thorne]

It pretty much is just a supercharged version of the gun. But what makes it awesome is that it becomes compatible with organic matter that way.

 

Throwing Combine soldiers around is so much fun...

Shotgun wins again... Pistol is rapid and reloads fast but it's firepower is VERY low. No use for it in intense battles. The crowbar does the same damage as the pistol, it is a pretty badass weapon but... Not much use in a battlefield unless you're using godmode... The AR2 is really good but it's not very precise, I'd rather get the pistol out and try snipping with it that the AR2. I run out of ammo with it really quickly. The MP7 is really really good but sometimes it lacks the power to do the job fastly... HL2's shotgun, the SPAS is fast, ammo lasts really long, you can fire 2 shells at a time and it works fine even in medium range... That's why I chose it.
