ITT: fall from grace
It's not that bad, I once beat HL2 only using the pistol outside of the gunship/strider stuff.
>>384126565
I think I found the HL2 pistol more useful than the HL1 pistol.
It fires much faster and can actually kill combine fairly quickly. The HL1 pistol may be a bit more accurate and a bit more damaging per shot, but it's quite slow firing and you'd get wrecked by soldiers, while the HL2 pistol can at least do some pretty fast damage up close.
>>384126565
The HL2 pistol is better and more fun to use because you can just tap-tap-tap as fast as you can click
>>384129558
It also connects better.
Animations are better, and it translates well.
Sure it's kinda weak sounding but it's direct.
HL1 pistols animations are so slow and feels delayed, as if Gordon shoots a laser gun and mimics recoil rather than feeling actual recoil.
>>384126565
>>384126565
The HL2 revolver is amazing, though.
>>384126565
Both are peashooters. The only reason why people got mad is the sound.
Biggest problem with the HL2 variant is the weak ass sound
>>384129951
sounds are important

>>384126878
God gave you life and you wasted it like that? HL2 fags are retarded.
>>384126878
I used pistol for a long time, a few headshots and everything dies. Its laser accurate. Better than smg
>>384130286
>Its laser accurate
lol ok buddy
>>384130360
>make a giant-ass gun model
>put the crosshair at the bottom of the screen near the gun model so you can't actually see where you're shooting
>>384130286
The accuracy is shit beyond close range, you might as well be using the SMG at that point.
>>384130306
>not the claymore
>>384130564
That's a piece of shit.
Truly is a fall from grace from SG and SSG from DOOM/2.
The HL2 pistol can be modded though.

>>384130564
What a fucking abomination
>>384130004
>>384130687
What the fuck?
That's a lot of echo for an open place like that.
>>384130564
>that moronic vertical spray pattern

I hate a lot of the csgo reload/fire animations compared to css. I loved all the m4a1 css animations and shit even if they don't make realistic sense at all.
>>384130841
>Open Rocky area
Yeah it tends to give an echo sound.
>>384130841
I'm going to take a guess and say that the guy recorded the sound in a shooting range, slapped it in and said that's what realistic means.
Wow I had no idea people actually disliked the Half Life 2 pistol.
The only weapon in Half Life 2 I actually dislike is the SMG, it feels like an airsoft gun despite being deafeningly loud, and its so boring to use, you just sort of hover the cursor over the enemy and wait a few seconds.
I like the pistol and revolver in Half Life 2 a lot and use them as frequently as possible.
>>384130969
fucking embarrassing
>>384130564
yeah it's shit
the spread is garbage
it's not reliable in close combat because it could take 1 shot or 3 to kill an imp
>>384131143
I would have preferred something in between, the revolver in both HL1&2 is way too strong to the point where it feels like playing with cheats enabled, whereas the pistol is a last resort because it's so boring to use.
>>384130564
God it's so fucking bad.
It sounds like shit, it reloads slow as fuck, the animations aren't very pleasing, it's weak and worst of all it looks fucking ugly as hell. I hate it so much. The Doom 3 pistol is the exact same. Everything is way too round in that game. The only gun that looks/sounds cool is the Plasma Rifle (understandably the only gun that made its way almost intact from Doom 3 into Doom 4).
The Doom 1/2 Shotgun & Doom 2 Super Shotgun are both way, way, way fucking better looking than this hunk of unwieldy junk.
JUST
>>384130969
>still same sewage pipe model
>>384131270
That is the improved sound. Admittedly on my bass cannon headphones it booms a lot better.
>>384131340
it's fine because ammo is rare
>>384131372
They ruined the Magnum too.
>>384131486
To be fair the magnum in CE was OP as fuck
Thoughts on this gun?
>>384130841
i have almost never come across a "realistic" sound mod that isn't utter garbage that includes most of distortion, cutoff, bad/no normalization, HUGELY exaggerated low frequencies, extremely obvious compression artifacts, and inappropriate baked-in reverb.
>>384126565
>HL2 only has shitty weapo-
>>384131689
please, some of us are trying to forget that garbage game
>>384131689
The whole game is shit.
>>384130564
>>384131353
>they fucked up the shotgun and super shotgun
>but made the chainsaw into beyond elder god tier
>>384130564
everyone replying to this is retarded since the doom 3 SG is one of the strongest weapons in the game
its even stronger in multiplayer
>>384131843
That + the revolver stayed my favorites from HL1
>>384132036
>playing D3 multiplayer
>>384132036
Its powerful only if you run up close enough to like a hell knight's nipples and then unload into them. The spread pattern is pants-on-head retarded, it looks terrible and sounds like something throwing a raccoon down a wind tunnel.
Yet for all that it is STILL not the worst sounding (or looking) weapon in the game.
>>384132320
is it really multiplayer if you're the only guy on the server?
>>384131902
>>384131950
You can both shut your whore mouths.
>>384132320
I would rather play D3 multiplayer over +back VQ3 any day of the week. The only other acceptable alternatives are quakeworld and CPMA.
Valve, please. I'm beggin you.
>>384132395
people still play doom 3 and its not hard to idle in a server and get duels
>>384132427
There are so many multiplayer shooters to chose from you'd have to be a masochist to pick D3 over any of them.
>>384131843
>Fire both barrels
>>384132324
pretty sure they nerfed shotgun in RoE or buffed enemies HP or some shit, you can tell the difference between the original and expansion
>>384132596
>fire both barrels
>it only has one
I mean it's a powerful attack but...
>>384132668
RoE is mainly just new enemies which do in fact have more HP.
>>384132514
I doubt you've ever even played it.
>>384130196
God didn't gave me life, he gave me just half-life
>>384132790
not really you can't oneshot imps with d3 shotgun no more, pushing you towards using super shotgun
>>384130351
>>384130506
Look at these fucking scrubs that don't know the zoom trick.
>>384132426
Name ONE good thing about it, kiddo. They even fucked up Elexis.
I play shooters with a controller.
>>384130506
>>384130351
It's literally perfectly accurate as long as you don't hold down the fire button like a retard.
God how the fuck do you children find your way onto this website? You realize you're suppose to actually be knowledgeable about things before you argue over them right?
>>384129558
>>384129686
I'm glad I'm not the only one who prefe S 2's pistol. I've never understood the unsatisfying meme for 2's weapons in comparison to 1
>>384134306
is it just because you are on console
>>384131843
>>384132596
What bothers me the most is that it's easy to see that the gun has no visible trigger on its model.
When HL2 first came out you could hold mouse2 then mouse1 and then release both when you wanted to shoot. When you held the mouse buttons down it would 'charge' your shot, the longer the charge the more bullets you'd shoot out at once. This worked in multiplayer as well, being able to one shot anyone.
>>384131843
vastly inferior to its HL counterpart
>>384134521
Hey wait a second, i thought they reduced her tittays?
>>384136554
are you blind
/v/
>>384136737
To be fair, Tychus is a fucking monster of a person. Would make sense if his prisonrig is custom built.
>>384134440
Yeah, 1's pistol is just so lackluster, even when I played it in 1999.
>>384136713
Are you stupid?
>>384137065
That's how all the SC2 marines look, not just Tychus. They swapped the mildly realistic human sized suits for big gorilla mini-mechs and then tried to pass that off as the way they always looked. We're lucky they're even using the original designs in the remaster.
>>384137304
u mad?
>>384130483
You can see just fine, relax.
>>384136950
Why are you here then
>>384126565
Second Puzzle Agent was a step in the wrong direction.
