Gameplay

  • IN THE CITADEL, NEAR THE VORTEX BRIDGE:
Alyx pushes you off the vortex bridge if you stand in her scripted path. --Amckern 07:28, 6 Jun 2006 (PDT)
Shouldn't you be past the bridge when she's running on that path? --Alph Tech STUART 13:49, 6 Jun 2006 (PDT)
I like to test my limits on scripted enviroments. However it was just a bad hair day for Alyx I spose, "Get out of my way, or I'll push you off!"
  • WHEN GUIDING GROUPS OF CITIZENS AT THE TRAINSTATION:
Sometimes a Combine soldier would go through the door to where Barney is, and start punching/shooting him. Barney does not take damage and does not reply. It would be better to just prevent Combine from going through that door completely. —Matveims 16:31, 5 Jun 2006 (PDT)

Graphics

In ep1_c17_00: Reflection corrupted on the ceiling of the first zombie-infested parking lot. Running on XFX GeForce 7900GT, fresh drivers. —Matveims 16:31, 1 Jun 2006 (PDT)
In ep1_c17_00: If you turn around after entering the second level of the first vent in this map, you can see that the level designer made the internal vent opening a few units too tall, so that it stretched over the opening, allowing the player to see through the nodraw and dev textured side.--Fitzroy doll 08:28, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)
In ep1_c17_05: The volumetric light columns are abnormally lit up with a flashlight. The effect is very unnatural. —Matveims 16:34, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)


UI

  • Chapter names should be in all caps if memory serves. --Alph Tech STUART 12:07, 1 Jun 2006 (PDT)
  • Suit power doesn't disappear when you die from falling. --Alph Tech STUART 15:46, 1 Jun 2006 (PDT)
  • One of the autosaves in Urban Flight creates a savegame with strange (apparently unintended) title: #episodic_Chapter4_title. —Matveims 21:20, 1 Jun 2006 (PDT) I've seen this happen with other chapters too --Alph Tech STUART 16:03, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)


Episode 2 Trailer

  • The episode 2 trailer sometimes causes a crash. 3 out of 5 times tested, it crashed source. --Steamfraiser 07:52, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)
    • Here it doesn't crash but for some reason it closes HL2EP1 (I see Windows again) and then the game is restarted and the trailer is shown? --dutchmega 09:03, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)
      • I'm getting a restart to a completely black HL2 screen. Nothing happens. --Alph Tech STUART 16:21, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)
      • Mine actually physically crashes, I get a "HL2.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close" then nothing opens back up. It's okay though, because the trailer was extracted to my PC and I watched it there :D --Steamfraiser 14:03, 2 Jun 2006 (PDT)
  • Maybe something linked to this?
  • The trailer pixelates, and chops in res under 1280, such as 1024, and 800.
    • The trailer causes windows to start up and the trailer to play, it glitches (lag) when Eli starts to talk, the same happens when I play the actual file in C:\(user name)\half-life 2 episode one\episodic\media. Maybe the file got corrupted upon download, a common problem with video files.--Deadity 06:37, 6 Jun 2006 (PDT)
  • Always locks my system (P4 2.4, 1GB, ATI X850 Pro), the only way I can view the Episode 2 vid is to play it from the media folder. Noticed the other videos are all 1280x720 but Ep2_Teaser.wmv is 1280x960. Even from a fresh boot with all other apps shutdown my sys stops responding when that video level fails to load. --wisemx 05:57, 7 Jun 2006 (PDT)
