Trying to shoot down this annoying as fuck helicopter from a cliff

>trying to shoot down this annoying as fuck helicopter from a cliff
>game gives me a fly by wire missile launcher
>missile passes right through the heli like its not even there 9/10 times and does zero damage

why do people say this game is good again?

because most of us played it back when it was good

You are bad at games.

Good for its time

The same reason some people still claim Sonic Adventure is a good game.

Cause it is.

Git gud faggot.

yeah, it's a pretty shitty game

For its time it was a very impressive game. Arguably more impressive than Half Life 2 was for 2004.

The first few times I played this game I didn't understand that the missile followed the laser.

Surface Tension got much more bearable once I found out and gat gud with the Tau Cannon

doesnt hold up in current times. it was the shit in the day like many others though. innovative.

>why do people say this game is good again?
Because it was made during a time when the shit it did was fresh and innovative rather than the norm. Also, the soldiers' AI is actually decent.

hm, I don't know gordon-kun but maybe I can convince you that this game is good

Underage cunts quit playing video games

The helicopter has a door open so the missile passes through it

It's pretty cool OP

nah it still does

Patrician choice coming through.

ah yes
see the problem here is that you're playing the modern updated version of the game
you want to try and download an older version
it's much better

Shoot the rotors with explosives

I know I'm biased but I don't quite understand how people think Half-Life is unplayable in the modern day. It casualized the fuck out of shooters already. Retards like DSP not knowing how to crouch jump and spiting it based on that I can understand, but thinking Half-Life is unplayable in general is quite a mystery.

It's more playable than 95% of modern shooters. The gameplay is incredibly seamless with masterful pacing and zero interruptions.

its a fucking apache, they don't have doors on their sides dumbass

no

Sorry user, but sven coop is the patrician choice
really fucking wish they made it an option to use the sven 3.0 models in the video options

meh. second half is only okay and the last few levels sucked.

The ones in Terraria have doors.

sorry dude, there aren't any apaches in Terraria. You must be thinking of a different game.

Umm...user....

there are no doors on the side of an apache through which a missile could pass.

fuck off randy

This game is near perfect as a shooter and will hold up better than every other shooter that will ever be made until I die 60 years from now. Screencap this

>HURF DURF OH GOD IM A FUCKING RETARD

Just fuck off already you retard.

It's good. I sometimes wonder what a remake would do to it, and if it would ruin it or make it better...

>Invent your own shitty alien race that's made up of knockoffs of other HL1 enemies along with a Quake ripoff thrown in too just because
>Toss in five dozen more weapons without bothering to check if more then a handful are any good
>Claim the game is all about leading a squad, introduce temporary squadmates all of like twice and make them shitbags who only get in your way rather than do anything helpful
>Make a final boss that's somehow even worse then HL1's
>And a midboss that's just a shittier ripoff of HL1's midboss

Fuck off Randy

user....it's a video game....

That's not an apache

>can't tell the difference between an apache and an osprey

kys

Did you never hear about Black Mesa or what?

Lmao fellow Half-Life fan, that is an Osprey.

Apache is the green attack chopper.

I totally forgot, jesus I don't know how I did.

user this is not going well for you

you missed a solid object....

>a missile missed during the single helicopter encounter so the entire game must be trash

fuck off Sup Forums

you didn't miss anything important though.
It's STILL not finished, and is nowadays a paid game.

It WAS dead for the longest time, and initial reports from Valve sounded like they wanted to eventually invest into the project at some point

>still not finished
>implying anyone wants to play xen anyway

he's not wrong though

I do. Many people do.
Fuck Xen haters.

Also GJ not mentioning all the other cut areas and the overall shittier gameplay & AI.

Xen is fine now that you're not an 8 year old scrub

he is very wrong.

I was something like 13 when I played HL1 for the first time on the PS2, and it was fine even back then. Brilliant change of atmosphere and pacing.

Has it really gotten to the point where people hate Opposing force due to modern Gearbox?

I think people hate it cause the tutorial is the only good part.

So we all agree HL1>HL2 but do we all agree HL2DM>HL1DM

since when have people "hated" OpFor?
Fuck, I'm still confused why people dislike Blue Shift.

nah I don't agree even with the first part.

See in this very thread

literally the first time I've seen anything of the sort in the 12 years I've been on this site. Hell, from where I'm standing, OpFor has been even praised to be better than main game.

Pretty much same.
In my experience, Sup Forums has always generally thought that hl1 was pretty good (but also overrated), opfor was better, and blue shift was blue shit.

Are you playing the original or source?

I was smart enough to aim for the propellers

Stop being 15 years old, and stop playing 20 year old games and judging them by modern standards.

You're like someone who gets into a model T and then calls it shit because it doesn't have fuel injection. Quit being such a disappointment.

OpFor has always had a shitty final act
