When ragdolls are floating in water wait for like 6 seconds and they stand still.

If a ragdoll just dangalling from a bridge/ legs/ arms the ragdoll freezes up.

When you get close to a model or texture it gets all blurry.

The chapter "black Mesa east" is probably the worst part of the game. The walls use the same ugly grey texture.

Now some in-game goofs.

When you get to ravenholm it's night time and when you get out of it it's morning... Shouldn't it be dark if it took me like 1 hour to get through ravenholm? Get this. When you get to nova prospekt it gets dark again.

When npcs use weapons it sounds WAAAY different then the same gun their and you are using.

At the part when your in that pod thing when your in the citadel when you get to breens office it's just floating.

Most elevators in the citadel don't need cables or even lasers they float up and down.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is just WAAAAY to many loading screens. For a game this loved the source engine code should be rewritten so it has less.

Literally every update that valve makes to steam BREAKS the game and the mods.

I think you don't quite understand how incredible it is that the game is ten years old and still has an incredible fanbase.

The physics are pretty darn good for that age.

It's also a shame to see how great half life 2 EP 2 is and it's aspects weren't used for half life 2.

Also if you look at the original e3 2003 footage of half life 2 the action is way more Intense then the retail, and the maps are incredibly polished better. After the chapter we don't go to ravenholm the maps looked like utter rushed garbage.

The best part about Half-Life 2 was the story/setting/atmosphere.

Tetris was groundbreaking, doesn't mean it still is. Get over it.
