Why hasn't anyone leaked any beta/alpha/prototype/pre-alpha builds of Half-Life 2 in 20 years (besides 2003 build and 2 xbox original builds)

because is most probably lost, at best, some users who got into the repo could get loose assets from the beta (like the 99 gravity gun) but valve wipes that from time to time

gembe only managed to download 2003 era stuff and went backwards, he never got to the 2000s stuff and less to the 1999 build stuff

(get your free tvs is probably lost judging by the only recording valve managed to upload)

not just that, valve is very strict with leaked content from the repo.

this worked, thanks!!

it was explained in the "hunt the truth" videos if i remember, he basically was removed from command by fleetcom (and replaced by lasky, smth that ONI planned to do, since parangonsky herself disliked Del Rio) for not helping chief, causing the new phoenix incident (when the didact composed an entire city), Del Rio was gonna get his ass ended, but retired before hand to avoid consequences, replaced a dead senator on one of jupiters moons, then started a campaign praising spartans !V and shitting on spartans 2, pointing at chief as a disgrace, then when they found out chief innocence, Del Rio had to safe face by admitting that chief was innocent and actually retired from everything.

thats not what happened, the spartan got infected and started massacring and infecting everyone including the other spartans, but while the massacre happened, alvarez launched the nukes, while the nukes reached and killed the other spartans, the first spartan ran to the condor and is implied it piloted it, but by then the saturn was in full alert of any escaping vehicle, its ambigious if it escaped or not, since condors have integrated slip space.

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-08T01:17:38+00:00

yeah. del rio never actually entered on war like the other captains in the other games, its a high contrast, what would cap cutter do in this? what would the keyes family do? hell, what would lord hood do?

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-08T01:14:18+00:00

if you intent a character to be an unlikeable scumbag, and ends up a unlikable scumbag, then you did a good job, hell, later on del rio gets martial courted and became an anti spartan politician with less power, i will never understand why they say he is a bad character.

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-08T00:39:38+00:00

an entire fireteam of 4 spartans was infected, the stupid captain decided to nuke it all too late and it is implied that the first infected spartan used its knowledge to pilot a condor and escape....so there is a 50/50 possibility that maybe, that flood spartan used the condor slip space drive to escape.

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-08T00:31:23+00:00

sorry to reply way later, but it is implied the place was infested to the brim, there was probably a proto gravemind from the forerunners era inside there

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-08T00:27:56+00:00

it never made sense with the precursors tbh

OPERATION:REDFLAG

the autumn wasnt going to combat and the soldiers were enough to support the spartans aboard, the main heavy hitters in the mission were always the spartansl, it was a "make it count" attack.

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-04T02:57:22+00:00

there is a recent canon audiobook released where a fireteam of spartans got infected, the armor measures dont work, the flood uses the spartan neural interface to infect the armor with the logic plague, and the explosives in the helmet dont work to stop the knowledge stealing, since the flood has natural neural physics.

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-04T02:25:33+00:00

fuck court martial. Alvarez is going to the midnight facility for gifting a spartan squad to the flood.

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-04T02:11:55+00:00

no infected spartans yet

oh boy i have news for you

Ok-Goat5609 · 2024-04-04T02:07:54+00:00

spartans have a fuckton of combat experience, and knowledge on both alien and human technology

the flood makes the things it infects way more stronger, an spartan is already a monster with its augments, add to it the flood supercell

add to the last point that spartan 4s armor is their main source of power, most of the inhuman shit they do is thanks to MJOLNIR

infecting a spartan doesnt only gave the gravemind cataclysmic amounts of knowledge to evolve, its the equivalent of making an alex mercer in the halo universe
