Half-Life
2 Weapons
We
don't yet have too much information on Half-Life
2's weapons, and all we have, is more or
less unconfirmed. Also the pictures we have
aren't too reliable, because the weapon
models may, and most likely will change
before the final publishing. Anyway, HL2HC
wanted to offer you all the latest information,
and here's what we know.
Crowbar
Gordon
Freeman's faithful crowbar will be with
him in the sequel also. The crowbar seems
to have got some scratches, dirt and rust,
but that's just realism and nice to see
those details on weapons in games also.
H&K
USP Match
This
pistol looks exactly like the pistol Lara
Croft (Angelina Jolie) carries in the movie
Tomb Raider and that pistol is H&K
USP Match. After Tomb Raider and Half-Life
2, maybe this will be the new 'Desert Eagle'
(as its reputation).
SPAS-12
This
SPAS-12 shotgun has been in many screenshots
and the most interesting thing is, that
it looks like a bit rusty and dirty - first
time ever we may see realistic, dirty and
rusty weapons, not just polished evershine
Colt M4's.
H&K
MP5K
MP5
is the weapon that came popular and well-known,
at least inside computer-gaming scene, because
of original Half-Life. Half-Life made those
three figures more than a weapon model,
it became a notion. MP5K is the little brother
for the legendary MP5 - so at least some
kind of evolution has happened here too.
OICW
(Objective Individual Combat Weapon) - M29
OICW
is the current rifle being developed by
the U.S. military as a replacement to the
M-16. U.S. military has given the weapon
designation M29. Top larger barrel is a
20 mm grenade launcher and the bottom smaller
barrel is chambered for a 5.56 mm round. |
