I know they're ruins, but obviously they used to be buildings, right? The point is, how can walls be "straight" like that after being blown up? Please tell me it's still a WiP and WILL be changed. It looks like you even copied the same walls all over the map 8-}.

P.S. I'm Vietnamese. Couldn't find a better word than "straight" to express what I thought :))

The HK SMG2 is a great little gun but since it was little used out side of the special forces community I find it odd that so many are in use and by the Combine no less.

Im just wondering if there will be a little back story as to how they got it in so many numbers like say the SMG2 was used by G-Mans Black Ops after they some how stumbled upon a Combine world through Xen during or prior to the events of Black Mesa. Thus this would explain in part how the Combine were able to adapt so quickly to our world and our way of fighting as well as how they are quickly able to start producing and experimenting with Combine Human hybrids.

Just some ideas I got but it could make an in interesting side story with little hints to it throughout the game.

combine soldiers have their own combine smgs. they don't use human guns.

plus the h&k smg2 is just another gun like the mp7 or whatever. the soldiers use a bunch of other guns in the game anyway.

plus what the hell? the black ops aren't gman's personnel army. the black ops are just another organization like the HECU except they went in black mesa to blow up the place. shephard unarmed the nuke and then gman had to arm it back again because shephard was interfering in the "imminent" fate of black mesa. the black ops don't have anything to do with gman.

the combine DIDN'T adapt that quickly to our world. 6 months into and they still look like aliens and have their own arsenal of combine guns. see our untextured combine smg here:

by the way hardcore half-life fans might notice that the combine smg seen in of2 is actually the beta strider body modified to be a smg.

Well I said they started to adapt by experimenting with human DNA creating the 1st human alien hybrids and as for the Black Ops no one knows who they work for and some have speculated that they might be taking orders from the G Man who would in all likely hood would be deceiving them in some way after all he set up the Black Mesa incident in the 1st place. We assume G Man has influence over them as their mission was to nuke BM destroying any evidence of what really happened IE benefiting the G Mans plans what ever they may be.

Also as for the SMG2 its not just any gun its made specifically for special operations and black ops units around teh world in very limited numbers IE 50+ built that we know of. Associating it with the black ops would kinda help explain why so many are around in the US seeing as the Black Ops are a sizable unit. I also assumed that the SMG2 would be used as a stock weapon by the combine based off some of your earlier vids and im sorry if I was mistaken dam >>

Again sorry for asking a dam question and sharing some ideas im just a fan of the mod after all ... no need to be rude and karma troll my posts.

Is there something with the H&K's texture? It looks like a solid grey mass. Or is it just the angle? Not sure.

Only thing I have to say is that the "ruins" look more like cardboard cutouts than ruins that have been blown to bits.

The lighting looks a bit odd to me; even in the fullsize version the soldier seems to be in less light than almost everything else around him. It may just be the textures being very dark though.
