![]() Lamarr is safe and sound in Half-Life 2: Episode One, where she makes a brief cameo appearance, causing further mischief to Dr. ![]() In her last appearance, she drops from the top of the screen after the ending credits and jumps toward the player. She is seen peeking out of the door with Kleiner when Gordon and Alyx appear in the teleportation chamber before scurrying off to hide from the group, perhaps frightened by Gordon's crowbar, as Kleiner suggests. Through whatever means, Lamarr eventually found her way back to Kleiner. Kleiner and Lamarr greeting Alyx and Gordon with a shotgun, mirroring a scene in Half-Life. It's possible she transitioned to several other areas as Gordon did following a separate path. Gordon then teleports away, Lamarr seemingly being too far away to teleport with him. Lamarr jumps away from Gordon (apparently escaping the reflux) to chase after some crows. Lamarr can be seen briefly in one of the teleported locations, in what looks like a sandy wasteland with a destroyed car. This forces Gordon to travel to Black Mesa East on foot. Later, while Gordon is about to teleport to Eli's lab, Lamarr jumps out of a vent and into the teleporter, damaging wiring along the way, and causing Gordon to teleport randomly to various areas around City 17 and eventually directly outside Kleiner's lab. Kleiner remarks that "It'll be another week before I can coax her out of there". She then jumps up on a locker and into a vent. After being removed Lamarr crawls around, observing the area. As Barney opens the door to the suit, Lamarr attempts to latch onto Barney's head. ![]() ![]() Lamarr's first appearance is in the Half-Life 2 chapter A Red Letter Day, when Kleiner gives Barney the honor of presenting the famed HEV Suit to Gordon. It is unknown when or why Kleiner originally captured Lamarr, though he has tamed her (to some extent) and keeps her as a pet. Personally we’ll stick to the happier stuff, thanks.ĭecemBy HAS Admin in Uncategorized Super-Go-Down-The-Hole – A short platformer as another test for the latest version of the Scorpion Engine.Lamarr is a Headcrab who has been debeaked, preventing her from latching onto ('coupling with') and controlling a host. Still, the addition of fast headcrabs may have made the game a bit too much for me to handle, and I reviewed the thing.īesides, with mods now coming in hot and heavy, don’t be surprised to see the fast headcrab make a return in some fan-made content. Anyone that’s met Jeff, though, will know that the terror quickly ramps up towards the end. The final version of Alyx is very careful to manage its horror elements early-on, reducing jump scares and keeping headcrabs at bay. “The shock of having that guy come around the corner and latch onto you before you’d even know what was going on was just too much.” “Almost immediately we cut the fast headcrab and the fast zombie from Half-Life 2,” Casali said. So, why was the fast headcrab cut? According an earlier interview from GameSpot with Valve’s Dario Casali, the thing was just too scary. Yeah, imagine those teeth trying to chomp their way into your face. While the top side of the red-legged monster isn’t quite as grotesque as the acid-spitting variant seen in the full game, look below the surface and you’ll be greeted with this… Twitter user JaycieErysdren made the discovery, complete with images of what’s apparently a fully-modeled headcrab. We missed this last month but datamining the game seems to have uncovered the Fast Headcrab enemy from Half-Life 2 alive and well in Alyx. Thought the headcrabs of Half-Life: Alyx were terrifying enough? Just be glad Valve cut this gruesome critter from the game.
