yeah, he's just getting knocked back whenever he takes bullets. when you die, i means that he took too many bullets and they finished him off while he was lying on the ground
The bullets can't penetrate the suit but the impact of the bullet will still cause internal bruising and bleeding
The main question is how things that aren't moving quickly can still hurt you. A snark nibbling the metal of the suit shouldn't be able to do anything, same with stuff like the hornets from the alien grunts

For how realistic half life tried to be at times they shit the bed by putting women in a role that was something other than HR or a screaming secretary

Crazy how different things could've been. Hell Opposing Force would've had to been done completely differently
The Black Mesa hazard course which Gordon holds the record for includes training with military grade weapons and the HEV suit is designed to withstand reality altering phenomenon let alone small arms fire.
That's one outcome. I hope you're considering all the times you got shot to death or fell off walkways and splattered or dissolved in a pool of chemicals.
I just finished half-life 1 for the first time about 2 months ago. I had played it before as a kid in 2001 but never got further than half way in. Good game.
I remember going over to my friends and getting stuck on the gargantua puzzle, getting cooked alive for like two hours. Is probably my fondest memory playing a game
we were stuck so long on it that I had to go home and the next day I was ready to figure it out and he had looked it up and did it without me. I was pretty disappointed, probably one of my major standard setting games
I know that he's supposed to be the "new guy" on his first day, but honestly I don't buy it. too many people know him.
game voice lines > ambiguous lore
maybe it was his first day as an hev guy
I don't think there's any official material suggesting that he's a new guy. That seems to have just been a fan theory that got too popular and everybody began accepting as fact without checking. At best it could be a misunderstanding of the hiring offer letter in the official game manual, in which case people should remember that being shown Gordon's hiring offer letter is not meant to mean he literally just started the job.
Yeah, Valve at least seems to have never intended for the incident to have been Gordon's first day on the job. It's just a fan idea that got too much traction.
In every picture of Gordon during the events of Black Mesa and onward, there is no helmet. The suit on display never has a helmet in either game. The only time we even see a helmet is the corpses on Xen, and that same model in multiplayer (but there's also a Gordon multiplayer model, so that's not proof of anything). Saying the HUD has to be real and not just a mood setting abstraction is the biggest fucking reach and I don't buy for a second that it has to be real and present in Gordon's actual view.
Even an in-universe HUD would not require a helmet; it could easily be something projected on his glasses or even on the inside of his eyeballs given how high tech the suit is

He was the right man in the wrong place.
He also had a lot of guns
Yes, he had a crowbar.
When your armor is bullet proof and auto injects you with stimulants and opiates, yeah probably.
>When your armor is bullet proof
It is?

It kinda is but the main feature of the HEV is the electric dynamic armor that stops (or weakens) the projectiles that come close to your suit
seems unlikely
>blood. loss. detected.
you can still bleed wearing bulletproof armor

They're gymnasts with guns bro
Black ops being kitted out with Apperture longfall boots will never not be a great fan-made addition to half life world building

and HEV suit

FUCKING CREEP

i like to think that quicksaves were the nudges the gman was talking about.
He's specialized in working in hostile environment.
What is Miku doing there? Did he order Dominoes?
Where is Neon Prime?
Project lost momentum and fell apart.
I remember when I was in the hospital and I got morphine.
I said "Morphine administered" in my head.
Yes. He is smarter than them.
>with my SHIT and your FUCK we'll make an UGLY team!
what did he mean by this?
He means DRINK YOUR PRUNE JUICE.
He is a time wizard. You can't win against that.
and some save-loads

That stumped me a bit as an adult. I got stuck for a little bit.

gordon is a highly trained professional he does not need to hear all of this
Gordan is literally him fr fr
I love fruity rudy
He works in a military facility, other HEV users had gone to Xen before, so most likely he was trained to use weapons before everything happened.
yeah minus the whole everyone, including the HEV suit wearers, are fuckin dead
I know that he's supposed to be the "new guy" on his first day, but honestly I don't buy it. too many people know him.

Aren’t there multiple lines suggesting he’s been working there for awhile?
in hl2, yeah
Yeah, Valve at least seems to have never intended for the incident to have been Gordon's first day on the job. It's just a fan idea that got too much traction.
No, he used guns.
smart people are generally good at a lot of things
Seriously, why didn't they just aim at his head?
He has a helmet on the HEV suit, that's why the HUD is there and his breathing is linked to his suit power in 2.
the helmet always looked cool. i do prefer when it looks more like a hazmat suit though.
holy fuck i never noticed the connection
In every picture of Gordon during the events of Black Mesa and onward, there is no helmet. The suit on display never has a helmet in either game. The only time we even see a helmet is the corpses on Xen, and that same model in multiplayer (but there's also a Gordon multiplayer model, so that's not proof of anything).

the ultimate redpill is that in opposing force you can see gordons in game model from shepard persepective if you follow him into the xen portal
there never was any helmet, not even in ayy lmao space. its obvious a logic hole but since valve can do no wrong its a nothingburger
>The suit on display never has a helmet in either game
so i guess he doesn't have gloves either then
The suit does have hands in HL2.
Also Gordon's official HL2 model from HL: Survivor still has no helmex.
Not to mention Half-Life Alyx.
Technically that can be explained with "le GMAN hallucination"
Gloves can fit in a pocket. A helmet can't. Also, guess which of the two showed up in the sequel?
and all of that without a helmet!
How do Gordon's glasses stay on so well?
They cut the enemy that bitch-slaps your glasses off your face and fucks your ass.

Yes.
isn't that hal from breaking bad but as a good guy?
