Half-Life 2 Advisor Scenes (Part 3) *Major Spoilers*

[llovka]

im so fucking waiting for the third one ;ooo

[cloudguile]

so in episode 3 or half life 3

your gonna make a choice between destroying the ship or use it?

(i heard rumors)

[Soulsphere001]

@cloudguile

I doubt they'll give us a choice, but we'll eventually see.

Technically, Episodes one, two and three together is Half-Life 3 (originally it was going to be).

[mukyuuhikuu]

6:00 i just kept rofling at that part, the adviors crawls off XD

[Soulsphere001]

@mukyuuhikuu

Yeah, it looks like Dog a little damage to its anti-gravity harness.

[dms110D]

the ending made me sad :( T_T

[Pokeneb]

1 Advisor gives a big problem, probably can be compared to a boss in a game but think about it - ADVISORS ARE PART OF A RACE! We're doomed! (In Half-Life...anyway)

In Gmod some guy made an Advisor Test which was an Advisor u cud fight and it is hard enough to beat... >.>

[Soulsphere001]

@Pokeneb

I doubt you'll fight many of them anyway.

[Pokeneb]

@Soulsphere001 Right, but they're still there :o

[Soulsphere001]

@Pokeneb

Not many of them are on our side of the portal. But, yeah, it's still going to be a difficult fight.

[Pokeneb]

@Soulsphere001

I think there's gonna be an item/weapon which can beat Advisors but it's going to be hard to include tactics with fighting an Advisor - Whether you have an item which can beat them or not, tactic is gonna be hard to be included with them.

[117nmw]

@Pokeneb whats the name of that vid :D

[xweert111]

Oh shucks... Now that i think about it, alyx's parents are dead. That's... Sad!

[Soulsphere001]

@xweert111

Damn right.

[xweert111]

When eli was getting it's brain sucked by an advisor i said CRAP GORDON GET UP GET UP! Then dog came in, distroyed that advisor, and I shot him with a shotgun when i restarted the storymode and found him.

[MadBlazer89]

wheres the The Gluon Gun when need it?(quantum destabilizer)

[slowdude]

Bill deserved a death in the same way Eli received. Not just some rocks thrown at him as he falls down for no apparent reason.

[Soulsphere001]

@slowdude

Bill?

[slowdude]

@Soulsphere001

From left 4 dead. Valve made both games. Bill was killed off in the latest DLC "The Sacrifice" but it was made very shitty. Me like allot of fans of both games wanted Bill to receive at least a small cinematic death despite the fact the game doesn't have those. Bill deserved it though as Bill was awesome.

[Soulsphere001]

@slowdude

I have only played the first Left 4 Dead, so I didn't know that they killed off Bill.

On a side note: Left 4 Dead 2 should have been an expansion pack, which I probably would have bought. Unfortunately, they decided to make it a full game. Ah well, perhaps I will buy it sometime in the future.

[TopmultiplayMedia]

Those advisors remind me, that brainbuck in starship troopers. But their are fucking scary....

[aeomus26]

6:00 GO DOG!!!! Kill that worm!!!! XD

[KittenKiller]

Why the fuck is only 1/4 of this video actually relevant to the title?

[Soulsphere001]

@KittenKiller

One answer: Because of the commentary that discusses the aforementioned title.

Another answer: Since even the commentary discusses the advisor scene, it's relevant to the title.

[KittenKiller]

Oh ok.

I watched it on mute.

[Soulsphere001]

@KittenKiller

Why did you watch it while muted?

[KittenKiller]

Cause I do what I want.

[MrDanielneg]

fuck you heck you crap you combines,combines advisors and dr.breen

[qwertyuiop246603]

LOL ALYX VOICE FOR REAL!

[dan38b]

saddddddddddddddddddd

[Soulsphere001]

@dan38b

*Nods*

[The54321gravityCAT]

go to hell u retarded potatos.

[FcukCensoredSht]

Wow, the voice of Alyx Vance REALLY got into the Half-Life 2 game, awesome :)

[TheEvilDinkleburgh23]

Am the only one that thinks thtat DOG is a fucking gangster? Biggest pain in the ass in Half-Life 2, the Strider. Strider vs Dog? Dog beats the shit outta it. Alyx in danger from the most feared creature in the game? Dog jumps right on that SOB and has it in a frenzy to get away. Dog, u have my propz. XD

[9volt65]

Wait, if advisors can FREAKING LEVITATE THINGS AND SUCK THEIR BRAINS OUT DIRECTLY AFTER WAKING UP, WHY DON'T THE COMBINE JUST USE THEM ONLY?!

[Soulsphere001]

@9volt65

Please turn Caps Lock off, thank you.

Probably because the advisors are the race that controls the Combine. If you're enslaving other species, why throw your own race at the enemy when you have cannon fodder to fight for you?

[9volt65]

@Soulsphere001 NOO YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DOOooo.

Yeah, but considering there are aparently so many, 30 could probably wipe out a whole city on full alert in 3 hours. Why couldn't they fight WITH the combine? *Epic HL3 foreshadowing.*

[Soulsphere001]

@9volt65

LOL :D

Yeah, I'm thinking you'll have a run-in with them, now and then.

[AkuziSuper12]

@9volt65 Well you see advisors are strong and all but there body;s are very fleshy and showing. They take damage very easily. Like when dog pounds upon the advisor. The combine used striders because of how strong and armored they are. Plus advisors are technically the combine rulers I would guess. They can't have all the advisors fighting it out and dying.

[turtlesoviet]

Did anyone notice that the first advisor released Eli, after Alyx says 'Let go of him'?

[GSpivv]

Eh... GLaDOS beats them on the weird robot thingy scale any day.

[Davvg]

This honestly terrifies me, not upset as much terrified

[roster312]

I LOVE THE ENDING MUSIC and the dogs feelings when he feels really sad... THIS IS A TRUE SAD ENDING

[markus1yre]

I feel so sorry for Adrian Sheppard right now... He has been sitting in that helicopter for a pretty long time... xD

[MondoBongo26]

@markus1yre Huh... That's actually pretty true. Perhaps the Gman manipulated certain situations so that Shepard was deemed the pilot by Eli?

[Soulsphere001]

@markus1yre

It would be interesting if that's the same helicopter.

[gameguy09]

@Soulsphere001 that would actually be kinda cool

[zanarkand1988]

@Soulsphere001 it was a osprey plane

[roster312]

@markus1yre you mean the osprey? heh... lol i wonder if he needs to take a piss or a shit or heck even eat...

[aeomus26]

@markus1yre

oh yeah XDD, from Opposing force right? Yeah i was wondering what happened to him lol XDD thanks for reminding me=D

[Kaali974]

cool this sucks.

[chriss22gg]

didn't you miss out the bit where an Advisor is staring at you just before you close the secondary silo?

[Soulsphere001]

Yeah, two people mentioned that already. I should mention that in the video info. of part 2.

[ShupaNaraic]

6:05 Advisor freakout!

[degree7]

It would be better if one of the advisors cracked Eli's skull open and drained his brains, before dragging his spine out of his neck like a fish bone.

Thus, removing all sentimentality between his death and Alxyx.

:-/

[Soulsphere001]

The weirder comments have begun.

[lordarthur26]

5:27 he smacks it lol

[masterclan12345]

... The first time i played through this scene, i bursted into tears, eli was one of my favorite characters, Dog should of ripped those Slugs apart.....

[Soulsphere001]

Yeah, Eli is definitely a great character.

Dog got pretty close to doing that. But then I think his primary responsibility is to protect his friends more than going after the Advisors. Plus, the advisors were caught off guard and if Dog went after them he might not have fared too well.

[lordarthur26]

@masterclan12345

Dog pwns :D

[masterclan12345]

@lordarthur26 Yeah, Definitely, A lot of HL2 players love dog.

[Combine1337]

Lol

# gordon gets portal gun and sees advisor #

# shoots both portals#

Advisor: OOSH COLOURS BEAUTIFIL!

# goes through portal #

HEEEEEYY I WAS HERE BEFORE

LETS TRY AGAIN!

[Gheydolf]

-_-

[devilgryphon]

Well, really, the portal gun has some safety mechanisms for the portals that require very precise terrains, it's probably not likely that most terrains will allow use of the gun.

[sozamaria]

i like how in portal u work for aperture science(enemy of black mesa)

[Soulsphere001]

They're just competitors, not enemies.

[pvanl4]

If you do some research portals and half life kinda link together with the apperance of the borealis

[Soulsphere001]

Yeah, I know. Seeing as Aperture Science is the leading expert on portal technology, the Combine probably want any portal technology they might find on the Borealis.

[superestperson]

i wouldnt be surprised if in hl2 ep 3 / hl3 the combine invade aperture science and gordon gets the portal gun.... XD

[Soulsphere001]

If Gordon does get the portal gun, I don't think they'll let you have it for too long.

[superestperson]

yeah...

[Fathead1924]

actually they are the leading expert on shower curtains.

[Soulsphere001]

How could I forget that. Their self-cleaning shower curtains, which also clean your entire shower area.

Wait, why am I adding to the spam? LOL :)

[Smuffiluffi]

Advisors are fucking scary

[FrBROLY32]

I hope there will be two things in episode 3 : Alyx's death and an epic fight versus GLaDOS.

[Soulsphere001]

I doubt we'll see either, especially Alyx's death. I feel that Alyx is too interesting a character for Valve to kill her off. I don't think GLaDOS is anywhere near the areas Gordon will explore, but I suppose he might battle an A.I. that's similar to GLaDOS.

[minirobot1]

I cried and had a mental break down when this happened... :(

[Soulsphere001]

Yeah, that's what happens when you get overly emotionally involved with fictional characters. A friend of mine has had something similar when a few of her favourite characters died.

[SilenceBreakerInc]

Wow

[shadowhunter144]

yeah iv'e seen that one. Can you shoot that one?

[Soulsphere001]

Apparently you can use No Clipping to find and shoot them.

[FrBROLY32]

There's a lot of adisors you can find out with the noclip mode.

They mostly are in close rooms, out of the map, and I think they are used to appear in passages In Game.

They are like actors, in front of a camera :D

[FrBROLY32]

I watched your 3 vidéos.

Nice, but you missed one major advisor !

You can see and shoot him during a short time before you close the secondary silo ;-)

[Soulsphere001]

Yeah, someone else has already mentioned that. I'll probably just create a new video for it instead of re-posting Part 2, but I've been too lazy to get around to it.

[FrBROLY32]

Or use him as an introduction for the episode 3's advisor scenes...

[Soulsphere001]

That's an interesting idea. I might just do that, and I'll try to remember to give you credit for it.

[FrBROLY32]

That's very kind of you ^_^

But we'll probably have to wait a loooooong time for this......

Hope you've got a powerfull memory.

[Soulsphere001]

My memory usually isn't very good, but I do, sometimes, recall details for many years. I added a text file to my desktop with a reminder, so I shouldn't forget.

[finaly231]

i think that advisor that was on the ground crawling was scary some how

[finaly231]

Or maby Half-life 3!!!

[shadowsnacker]

the first advisor saw the second advisor running away so he was like oh shit he got fred

[Soulsphere001]

You're talking about the commentary? You have to select "Developer Commentary" on the main menu.

[AkKid907]

haha, speaking of portal, the end song after you kill GlAdOs when she is singing " even while your dieng, i will still be alive" and so on, totally foreshadows the coming of portal 2. I cant w8 for portal 2 and hl2:ep. 3

[bionicleboy97]

valve have stopped making portal 2 and have more concentration on half life 2 episode 3

[phantom12321]

I believe it's been put on ice. but not scratched The main reason was despite Portal's great little plot. The fact that it's a puzzle game makes it harder for a sequel, as you have to create all new puzzles that won't feel like you're doing the same thing over again especially for fans of Portal who have played it many times and are very familiar with it's puzzles.

HL2's narrative has so much more setup and ready to be tapped I could understand them scaling back Portal 2 in preference to HL2 E3

[brutaka359]

Two questions

one: Who are the advisors?

two: what does Aperture science have to do with anything?

[Soulsphere001]

One: Go to the video description for part 1 and click on the link, which is just below my quick advisor description.

SPOILERS (Half-Life 2)

Two: Aperture Science owns a sea vessel with some, apparently, seriously high-tech equipment on-board. Eli wants Gordon to destroy it, because he's afraid that the Combine will take the ship and the advanced technology aboard it. We know, through the game called Portal, (MINOR PORTAL SPOILER) that Aperture Science has the latest in portal technology.

[toontownonline]

if you also noticed the combine computerized voice sound exactly like glados in episode 2

[kvan1917]

Holy shit dude, I never noticed that before! Awesome...

[Soulsphere001]

I assume you mean the commentary? It's interesting to go through them in Episode One and Two, to get a better idea of why and how they did certain things. Portal also has commentary.

[GreaseEMU]

dog is a BEAST!

[spiderdude777]

wow dog had that one advisor CRAWLING dog is bad ***

[TheBlackBird11]

You know that there two diffrent Advisors, There is one, And they are called breeders, thats the one you meet at EP2

and the one thats called "Queen" thats the one with arms and you meet it at the screen when the breen is saying "host a body"

[quarkde]

I can't wait for Half-Life 2: Episode 3!

[Owen2rules]

only half life 2 episode 3 will tell us what happens...

[Owen2rules]

wow i wonder what half life 2 episode 3 holds... "prepare for unforeseen consequences" and then BAM! a portal shows up and headcrabs, bullsquids and other stuff show up then when he says it again... BAM! soon theres going to be another portal then gordan does what he did in half life 1: grab a missile and nuke the place and start somewhere else (like city 17 in HL2) so when he bombs the ship he might starts again somewhere else...maybe china this time! =D

[Soulsphere001]

It'd be interesting if we see the protagonist from Portal in episode 3, but I doubt it. I hope episode 3 has some more insight into the Aperture Labs research. They're definitely the authority on portals, at the very least.

[Owen2rules]

mm yeah i agree but as i said before.. (lol) only half life 2 episode 3 will tell us.... =D

[Soulsphere001]

So true.

[KyleCMJohnson]

The advisors were scary because of their power. The striders were scary because of their sounds, size and power. The hunters were scary because of how they mixed beauty, feline grace, stealth, and utter deadlyness. But the scariest were the fast zombies. Ravemholm FTW!

[jedisociety]

advisor: hey did g-man command you to keep an eye on freeman too?

ninhilanth: FREEMAN!!!!!

[Soulsphere001]

"You are man...he is not man...for you he waits...for you..."

[jedisociety]

U...

[razor2657]

ELI!!!

[Soulsphere001]

That's his name. Don't wear it out.

[zooomm]

the advisors have symbols around their "neck".

Kinda like a dog :P

I find it strange how G-man gets so much attention and advisors so little. G-man is a good guy and then you have the advisors.

[Soulsphere001]

I've always wondered what exactly the G-man wants and who he's working for. I don't consider him a good guy, but he doesn't appear to be as evil as the combine. Hopefully episode 3 will give us some insight.

[zooomm]

He has saved Gordons life twice, and he can stop time. I think the vorts are evil. Doesnt mean i can exploit it while "it" lasts :P

P.S. Have you seen the consept art with the advisors for EP 3?

[Soulsphere001]

Yeah, I scanned through the concept art some time back (and looked at it again just now). It looks like they might pull a Half-Life 1, meaning Gordon may, once again, end up on an alien world. Time will tell all.

[metalsnake27]

I also wonder what the vodrigaunts where trying to do with g-man in the beggining of episode 1....

[Soulsphere001]

From what I understand, they were trying to stop him from taking doctor Freeman away to who knows where, which also gave them the time they needed to save Alyx Vance. They also did something to stop the G-man from being able to track Dr. Freeman, which is why you don't see him, from that part on, in Episode One.

[quarkde]

I think that G-man cares for himself and his employees' interests and not for Gordon. Vortigaunts care for and protect Gordon.

[dwayne417]

poor alex.nice vids though

[Soulsphere001]

Poor Alyx indeed. Thank you.

[wrestlingfanman22]

eeeew nasty mother fuckers

[Soulsphere001]

Yeah, they are not nice at all.

[molemanninethousand]

You missed one- the advisor floating above the missile silo right before you close it. You can shoot it before it leaves, but of course you can't kill it.

[Soulsphere001]

Okay, thanks for letting me know. I'll verify your comment and probably redo part 2 with the new scene at some point.

[Schiebpulver]

this is the part where i nociped i commented on this on episode one of the sightings
