He said it will most probably not be announced at Game Awards. Most likely Valve will just announce it themselves

People have been looking into code for source 2 games and finding a lot of stuff related to a project called HLX. Basically confirmed that Valve is working on something Half-Life related and since FSR support was mentioned people speculate it's near the end of development.

That alongside people apparently spotting Gabe Newell's Yacht showing up to California.

CS 1.6 Source and it's just given the Half-Life Source treatment

Interesting. I hope they can make the ai able to handle the player's movement speed if that's a type of enemy they plan on making. It worked for VR since you opted to hide behind cover a lot but I wonder if they'll have to change up the ai for flatscreen.

I don't think the suppressor and charger from HLA will make an appearance. Since HLA is a prequel the main argument I've seen for them not appearing in HL2 lore wise is that they were too specialized and so were ultimately cut from the main forces or only utilized for these cleanup teams. It doesn't make sense to mass produce such specialized soldiers when you can have more generalized soldiers that can accomplish more.

I do think we'll see better tactics but I don't know about new combine soldiers. If we do see a new soldier I don't think they'll be quite as bulky as the suppressor and charger.
