    Someone who played half life in VR could help me out?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2020 02:38 PM PST

    I finished ALYX and remained impressed by the last cutscene so I decided to play the first chapters of the half life but I wanna play them in VR. I tried some things I read online but they don't work so I guessed that this sub could have helped me out.

    Half-Life: Wastelands [Chapter 1]

    Posted: 29 Nov 2020 12:50 PM PST

    Note: Reposting bc I posted it at like 1 AM yesterday and almost nobody saw it

    Prologue

    It is now the nineteenth year of the Combine's occupation on Earth.

    The planet's resources have been sucked dry by the Combine, and many species have come to extinction as a result of the Black Mesa Disaster & Combine Threat.

    Many areas of the world have been cut off from one another. Most notably: What used to be the United States of America.

    No one has lived in the States since shortly after the Combine invasion, when all Citizens were moved out due to an overabundance of Xen Wildlife, on top of the area becoming mostly uninhabitable by humans due to the effects of the Seven Hour War.

    However... One Resistance Faction has been tracking an unusual series of Combine Shipments... And it has lead them straight to the U.S. Wastelands.

    Chapter 1 - In Transit

    Light peers through the windows of a worn-down Library. Bookcases have been toppled over, and the remains of piles of books have been strewn across the floor. A group of six stands around a table, with a map laid out on top of it. "We've tracked all of the Combine's shipments in a fifteen-mile radius for the last month.", Agnes begins. "All shipment schedules & routes add up... except for one." Daniel scoffs. "So? Maybe they screwed up a shipment. Maybe we screwed up a shipment." Agnes shakes her head. "Nope... We didn't hit this one. And if we had, I wouldn't be bringing it up now."

    Agnes picks up a red marker and draws circles around specific areas. "This is where the Combine Shipments coming in from outside of City 11 usually show up. Then, they're unloaded and moved to these warehouses. For those that travel outwards, the shipments are taken from... these points... and packed onto the Razor Trains, which travel along the regular rail systems. But here's the interesting part." She draws a line from a station to a rail system. "A couple of days ago, a Razor Train branched off from the regular routes... To a rail system that I've never seen used before." "Maybe ye just missed it.", Daniel says. "Maybe you just missed my point. That rail system... I cross-referenced with older maps & Combine Terminals... and despite the Combine's modification of the rail systems in the past... I can confirm that shipment was headed into the US."

    Evan tilts his head. "America? But... it's been cut off for almost decades now, are you sure?" Agnes nods. "Positive. I also noticed the Combine's regular shipment schedules falling out of sync after the first train took off. They must be moving supplies. But why?" Amelia steps forward. "Are they reopening the states? I mean, that was a pretty big area." Evan shakes his head. "That wouldn't make sense. They have more than enough space for all the remaining humans in the current Cities. 'Sides, it's not like they'd care. The fewer people around, the more they can get away with." Daniel nods in agreement. "Aye, that's true... plus, I'm sure the Breencasts would've been spoutin' some bullshit about "Our benefactors resurrecting this once great nation!" Daniel makes a mocking salute.

    "They seem to be scattered", Agnes began. "We may be able to use that to our advantage. Maybe figure out what they're planning, and get word back to Black Mesa East once we're back." "Hold on, hold on, hold on", Daniel replies. "What do ye mean "once we're back"?" Agnes steps back from the table. "You all ready for a road trip?" Daniel does a double-take. "...We're going now?", he asks her. Agnes nods. "Why else would I have called everyone over here? Everyone, get your game faces on. We move in on Quesnel Station in five." Daniel rubs his eyes, sighing. "And here I thought I'd get to sleep today."

    Agnes whistles loudly. "Alright, everybody, let's get a move on!" She pulls a bag over her shoulder, & opens the library warehouse's sliding door. The group exits the library, making their way across the street, and using a ladder to get onto a nearby rooftop. Emma kneels and pulls out a pair of binoculars. "No CP 'til we get to the checkpoints 'tween Reid and Barlow. Don't think we can sneak around. We'll have to create a diversion of some kind.", she says. "Daniel, Amelia, you got it covered?", Agnes questions. "Yep.", Daniel replies. "We'll draw 'em away & link up with you two at St. Andrew's." "Alright. Let's go.", Agnes says.

    They drop down, carefully heading between buildings until they get to an abandoned casino near the Combine checkpoints. "Okay… You guys will have to lure them down Barlow and shake 'em off. Just be sure to avoid going towards Cariboo Highway, or else the forcefields'll cut you off.", Emma tells them. "Got it.", Amelia replies. "C'mon, Danny." The two dash between buildings and get between the two checkpoints. Daniel picks up a can and chucks it at a Metrocop. "Sorry! Thought you were a Cremator!" The Metrocop raises his Stunstick, dashing after Danny & Amelia. "We've got a 10-31 at checkpoint 5A, 2 suspects. Officers in pursuit. Code 1." Over the Metrocop's radio, the Overwatch AI responds. "Overwatch acknowledges. Detain and deliver sociocide verdict immediately."

    Daniel and Amelia dash away, and the rest of the group sneaks past the checkpoint, making their way around a building until they make it to the church. Shortly thereafter, they are met once more by the two. Amelia dusts her hands. "They'll be searching that block for a while. Let's make ourselves scarce." Agnes nods, patting her on the back. "Good work." The group proceeds across the city until they get to Quesnel Museum. Agnes puts a hand out, motioning the group to halt. "Alright. Let's take extreme caution here. Combine patrols are usually swarming around this place. Emma?" Emma pulls out her binoculars, scanning the area. "We'll need a way through the forcefield. Scanners are patrolling the front of the building. But it looks like there's a Combine APC up the road. Some CPs taking an unapproved break, it seems. If we can commandeer that APC, we can cross the highway into the station." Agnes bites her lip. "That creates a complication. They're out in the open, they'll see us coming from a mile away."

    Evan smiles. "They'll see us coming from a mile away, sure… You guys remember that Snark infestation in the vents? I… may have kept some of 'em." Evan pulls out a jar with a Snark inside of it. Emma stares at Evan with a stunned expression. "You kept live Snarks in our headquarters?" Evan shuffles his feet. "I mean… I separated them." Emma rolls her eyes, and Agnes shrugs. "It's worth a shot, I guess." She puts a hand on Evan's shoulder. "Soon as you get close enough, lure them towards you, unleash the Snarks, then get the hell away as fast as you can.", she tells him. "Yeah. I was hoping I'd get to use these guys on something… y'know, bigger. But I guess I'll have to make due. Part of me is gonna miss you, little guys." Evan pats the Snark Jar. The Snark hisses, and the group exchanges concerned glances.

    Evan heads down the road towards the CPs. He waves his arms, reaching into his jacket pocket. "Hey! Hey!" The Metrocops turn their attention towards him. "What the-- Hey! Stop right there!" The cops draw their pistols, slowly approaching him. "Take your hand out of your jacket now!" Evan chuckles. "If you say so… I have to warn you, though. These guys get cranky when they aren't fed." Evan pulls the Snark jars out from his jacket and tosses them onto the ground before running back and hitting the pavement. The jars shatter, and the Snarks immediately leap towards the CPs. The Metrocops scream, firing on the Snarks, but miss their shots. Their body armor is easily torn apart by the Snarks, allowing the aliens to feast on their exposed flesh.

    One of the Metrocops runs for the APC. He hastily unlocks the door just before getting their head slammed through the glass by Agnes, knocking them unconscious. Agnes pulls the CP's mask off, cupping her hands over her mouth. "Evan, get over here fast!" Evan sprints away from the Snarks and dives into the back of the APC. Emma hops into the driver's seat, looking over the controls. "Uhhh, uh, shit. Does anyone here know how to drive?!" Agnes scoots her over, taking the driver's seat. "Learned just before the invasion. Though it's been a long time since I've driven…" She puts the APC in Drive, and speeds off just as the Snarks leap towards it.

    "Okay… Almost there." Agnes puts the CP's mask on while keeping one hand on the wheel. "Emma, keep your head down. We can't risk anyone seeing us on the way in." Emma ducks down as they pull into the station. Justin whispers from the back. "I know this is serious, but I just gotta say, your voice sounds really cool in that mask." "Zip it.", Agnes responds as she pulls up in front of the main building. It is then that she notices a CP Officer signaling them to stop. Agnes feels her stomach drop as she slows down next to him, rolling the window down.

    The Metrocop looks up at her. "There you are. Mind explaining to me what took you so long? We're almost behind schedule, everything else has been loaded. And--Hey, where's the rest of your patrol?" Agnes swallows. "Uhh… Some… Some Citizens caused a bit of a ruckus earlier. They had to provide some extra backup. Sorry." "Just get the damn supplies over to James before you get us both in trouble." The cop points his stunstick towards a Metrocop nearby. "Got it. Th--...Thank you..?", she says, biting down on her lip after letting that slip out. The cop simply shakes his head as she drives off. "Dumbass is gonna get himself killed." Agnes pulls up towards "James".

    "Took you long enough. Do you have that last supply shipment?" "...Yeah… Yeah. I'll unlock the back for you.", she tells him. James motions another Metrocop over, and they head towards the back of the vehicle. Agnes pulls the sliding door open. "Get ready.", she says as she unlocks the back doors. The Metrocops pull them open, only to get dragged into the back of the vehicle by the others. Daniel slams the doors shut, and the rest of them knock the two cops unconscious. Daniel turns his head towards the driver's seat. "Agnes? You did not think this through very well." "There are only six of us, what do you expect me to do? Just drive through the front gates and gun everyone down?", she scoffs. "That'd make things easier." She shakes her head. "We don't get things easy nowadays. Now, uh… Hmm… Hey, Emma, most Metrocop suits are tailored to the average height of the adult male, right?" Emma pops her head up. "Uh… Yeah. Why?" Agnes turns towards the back. "Danny, Evan? You two are gonna get us on that train." The two raise their heads. Daniel blinks. "Excuse me?" "Get in uniform.", she tells him. Daniel sighs. "Weirdest feckin' day of me life."

    After Daniel and Evan get in the CP uniforms, Amelia and Justin tie up and gag the CPs with spare rope. Agnes turns to the others. "Alright. Emma, sneak into the back. Here's how we're gonna get on board." Emma steps around the other side of the APC and climbs into the back of the vehicle. Agnes continues. "I'm gonna pull up to the loading bay. Soon as you two step out, I want you to stack cargo up to provide some cover for the others to board the train. After that, you two are gonna load the cargo onto the train, and the rest of you are gonna hide inside those Combine crates." Daniel looks at her. "That is a really shoddy plan." She glares at him. "Daniel, I swear to god, I will come back there and stick my foot up your ass if you don't stop complaining today. Get out there. Now."

    Danny and Evan hop out of the APC, stacking supply crates on top of one another. The group sneaks aboard the train, climbing into the supply crates that get loaded on board. Agnes carefully makes her way under the vehicle, and Daniel helps her to her feet. She climbs into the train car. "Soon as this thing gets going, you two sneak onto the back of the train car, and I'll open it from the inside. Got it?" The two nod. Agnes hides behind some crates, and Daniel continues loading cargo. "Feckin' hell, what do they put in these things?" "Considering some of the things I've seen?", Evan asks. "I, for one, do not want to know."

    They finish loading cargo and Evan waves to the other Metrocops. "We're good to go!" The train car's folding door closes, and the train begins moving. When the other Metrocops turn their heads, Danny & Evan hop up onto the platform. Agnes opens the door, and they step inside. "Okay... We're clear." Agnes opens the Combine supply crates, and Emma pops her head out, gasping for air. "God damn it, those things are airtight!" Agnes quickly opens the rest of the crates, and helps everyone out. "Alright, everyone… Next stop: The United States."

    Any recommendations for surviving those "defend camp" sections in HL2?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2020 12:58 PM PST

    As someone who doesn't regularly play FPS games, these levels suck for me. Even changing the difficulty to Easy is still not enough for some reason. I know I just have to improve (and save-scum) but are there any tips and tricks for these parts? Any way to cheese it other than enabling God Mode?

    Edit: Particularly the part where the uprising in City 17 is happening.

    Update: Finally did it. Thanks for the help everyone!

    Is HL2's combat interesting?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2020 08:23 PM PST

    I'm going through the first half life expansions and I'm looking forward to 2. But I saw this video and according to it the combat is far less tactical. This was one of my favorite things from the first games and I'd be disappointed if it was gone entirely

    Can my laptop play Alyx? Need to check before investing in a VR Headset

    Posted: 29 Nov 2020 10:08 AM PST

    I am thinking of buying the Oculus Quest 2 but before I do that, can you folks tell me if my laptop will be able to play Half Life Alyx?

    ​

    Intel Core i7-7820HQ CPU @ 2.90GHz

    16GB Ram DDR4-2400 (1200 MHz)

    Nvidia Quadro M1200 4GB

    ​

    I'm guessing the graphics card might be a problem.

    However, I usually have no problems playing recent AAA titles on medium settings. I just finished Resident Evil 3 remake. Before that I finished Doom Eternal and it was smooth as butter.
