Magazine/Reserve Capacity: 6/12
Spawn Command: give weapon_357
Spawn Ammo: give item_ammo_357
Picture: http://ep1.vidgg.com/picture.php?id=357.jpg
Description: The second handgun available, the revolver is essentially a hand
cannon, with it being more powerful and accurate than most other weapons, but
ammunition is scarce, due in part to the fact that enemies do not carry this
weapon. Due to its excellent stopping power, it is effective against Combine
soldiers and headcrab zombies. A headshot with this gun will almost guarantee
a one-shot kill even on the most heavily armoured enemies. This weapon appears
to be based on the Colt Python Elite .357 Magnum, which is confirmed by the
designation on the weapon's barrel in-game.
First Found: Chapter 5: Exit 17. Found on the floor in the train station foyer
after ferrying citizens across.
----------------
| Submachine Gun |
----------------
Range: Medium, accuracy suffers at long ranges
Damage: 3
Alt-Fire: Yes
Magazine/Reserve Capacity: 45/225 + 3 HE-DP Grenades
Spawn Command: give weapon_smg1
Spawn Ammo: give item_box_mrounds
Secondary Fire Ammo: give item_ar2_grenade
Picture: http://ep1.vidgg.com/picture.php?id=smg.jpg
Description: The first rapid-firing, fully automatic weapon received, the
submachine gun is the weapon of choice for close to mid-range combat. It has a
45 round magazine with 225 rounds in reserve, and its secondary fire launches
a grenade that detonates on impact. Ammo for this weapon is quite plentiful,
making it one of the most frequently used weapons in the game. However, its
accuracy is lacking due to its high rate of fire. It is modeled after the
Heckler & Koch MP7, but with an additional grenade launcher above the main
barrel (which is fictional, but feasible in theory). The gun ejects regular
pistol casings, despite the MP7 using bottlenecked cartridges and the weapon's
ammo pickup icon showing the correct bullet.
First Found: Chapter 4: Urban Flight. Dropped by rappelling Combine Soldiers.
--------------------------------------
| Overwatch Standard Issue Pulse Rifle |
--------------------------------------
Range: Medium to Long
Damage: 8
Alt-Fire: Yes
Magazine/Reserve Capacity: 30/60 + 3 Energy Orbs
Spawn Command: give weapon_ar2
Spawn Ammo: give item_ammo_ar2
Secondary Fire Ammo: give item_ammo_ar2_altfire
Picture: http://ep1.vidgg.com/picture.php?id=ar2.jpg
Description: A powerful directed-energy weapon used by the Combine Overwatch
soldiers and Overwatch Elites, this rifle is the weapon that most resembles an
assault rifle in the entire game. It is very accurate at short and medium
ranges, with average results at long and extreme. It has two fire modes -
primary fires directed dark energy pulses, while the secondary launches a
Combine dark energy orb.
First Found: Chapter 4: Urban Flight. Two OSIPRs are found on a shelf in a
Combine Garrison, not too long after finding the SMG.
---------
| Shotgun |
---------
Range: Close, accuracy suffers greatly at increased range
Damage: 48 (8 x 6 pellets per shot)
Alt-Fire: Yes
Alt-Fire Damage: 84 - 100 (12 x 7 pellets per shot)
Magazine/Reserve Capacity: 6/30
Spawn Command: give weapon_shotgun
Spawn Ammo: give item_box_buckshot
Picture: http://ep1.vidgg.com/picture.php?id=shotgun.jpg
Description: The shotgun inflicts large amounts of damage at close range, but
its broad shot spread makes it weak for long-distance fighting. Despite
appearing to be a single barrel weapon (the tube below the barrel contains the
ammunition) its secondary fire discharges two shells at once, effectively
doubling the damage dealt in one shot (It has been speculated, though not
confirmed, that this is actually two shells fired in rapid succession). The
weapon is extremely effective against zombies, especially Fast Zombie
variants, or when engaging in close quarters combat in tight hallways. This
weapon is modeled after the Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun, but carries two fewer
cartridges in the magazine tube. In the original game however; the
true-to-life eight cartridge magazine is portrayed, as both games have
shotguns modelled after the SPAS-12.
First Found: Chapter 3: Lowlife. Located on a shelf in the same small
fenced-in area as the Pistol, and must be yanked out of a hole in the fencing
with the Gravity Gun OR found by the body of a dead resistance citizen in the
tunnel beyond the darkened room OR on top of an ammo crate in the crashed
Combine troop train.
----------
| Crossbow |
----------
Range: Long to Extreme
Damage: 120
Alt-Fire: Yes (activates and deactivates the scope)
Magazine/Reserve Capacity: 1/10
Spawn Command: give weapon_crossbow
Spawn Ammo: give item_ammo_crossbow
Picture: http://ep1.vidgg.com/picture.php?id=crossbow.jpg
Description: The Crossbow is a long-range weapon with high damage and
accuracy, but with a slow reload time as ammo has to be fired one at a time.
It appears to have been constructed by Resistance members from scrap materials
and to fire rebars which are superheated by electrical current from a large
battery on the underside of the weapon. These projectiles kill on contact and
can nail enemies to nearby walls. The bolts also travel relatively slowly,
dropping slightly over long distances, as, unlike most of the other
projectiles, they are modelled by the game's physics engine. For these
reasons, the Crossbow can be a difficult weapon to use against moving targets.
As a result, many players prefer to use the .357 for hitting targets at long
range. The rebar will ricochet off of most hard surfaces when the angle of
impact is low enough. Secondary fire activates a zoom mode to assist in
sniping. The crossbow is also one of the few weapons that can be fired
underwater, though there is not much opportunity to use that ability in-game.
Use against Antlion Guards show that the bolts simply bounce off.
First Found: Chapter 4: Urban Flight. On the floor in a Combine supply depot.
-----------------------------------------
| Rocket-Propelled Grenade Launcher (RPG) |
-----------------------------------------
Range: Medium to Long, splash damage to player at close range
Damage: 150
Alt-Fire: No
Total Capacity: 3
Spawn Command: give weapon_rpg
Spawn Ammo: give item_rpg_round OR item_ml_grenade
Picture: http://ep1.vidgg.com/picture.php?id=rpg.jpg
Description: This weapon fires rocket propelled grenades which must be guided
in flight using a laser painter sight which "paints" a red light on a target
which the rocket will then follow. The RPG is primarily an anti-vehicle
weapon, used to shoot down Combine gunships and striders. Throughout the game
ammunition for this weapon can usually be found strewn about areas containing
gunships, and later in battlezones involving striders as well. Up to three
rockets can be stored in reserve. Unlike in Half-Life, the guidance laser
cannot be turned off to dumb-fire a rocket. If a rocket is fired it will home
in on whatever the designator hits until it explodes.
It is interesting to note, that due to the rocket's maneuverability, it may be
possible to trigger an 'orbit' movement for it, when the rocket's trying to
hit the painted target, but can't, due to it's speed, resulting in it circling
the target endlessly.
First Found: Chapter 4: Urban Flight. Dropped by a Resistance citizen after he
gets killed by a Gunship in the ruined hospital, or much more rarely; earlier
in the chapter while fighting Combine Soldiers in a ruined street, if the
Resistance citizen with the weapon in that map is killed.
---------------------------
| M83 Fragmentation Grenade |
---------------------------
Range: Medium, limited by Gordon's throwing strength
Damage: 125
Alt-Fire: Yes
Total Capacity: 5
Spawn Command: give weapon_frag
Picture: http://ep1.vidgg.com/picture.php?id=nade.jpg
Description: The fragmentation grenade is a military-issue weapon with a
four-second fuse. Grenades are necessary for taking out Combine snipers and
turrets, and are also effective against large hordes of enemies (especially
zombies, as they do not attempt to avoid the blast). A unique feature of the
weapon is a red LED on the top that turns on when the grenade is thrown,
leaving a temporary trail of red to mark the grenade's path through the air.
Primary fire throws the grenade a variable distance depending on the elevation
angle the grenade is thrown. Secondary fire is an underhand toss/roll which
significantly changes the delivery of the grenade. If secondary fire is used
while standing, the grenade has much shorter range, and will bounce somewhat
randomly upon hitting the ground; if crouching, the grenade is rolled along
the ground in a fairly straight line, often curving to one side near the end
of its roll, and if running, the grenade usually drops straight to the ground.
Ordinarily, there is a significant delay between secondary fire and the actual
grenade launch; this delay can be effectively eliminated in certain situations
by holding secondary fire until the grenade is needed.
First Found: Chapter 3: Lowlife. While attempting to find cars to block
Antlion burrows in a large dilapidated parking garage, the player can find a
single grenade near shotgun ammunition and crabless Zombines near a car in one
section of the garage.
