HL2RP Guns and the Combine

    I've noticed a ton of servers that use more than just the SMG, Pistol, and AR2 as weapons for the CPs/OTA. Now, that isn't wrong, but I have noticed a trend with the selection of firearms the Combine makes use of for both the retail version of HL2 and the beta, and I don't think it's coincidental. The SMG of HL2 is actually a MP7 and the pistol is a USP Match. For those of you who don't know, in the beta the Combine also used a few more weapons that got cut, including the MP5K and the OICW, a weapon inspired by the real-life prototype XM29 OICW. The special thing about all of these weapons is that they were all developed by the German defense manufacturing company Heckler and Koch. There are a few inconsistencies, like the use of the SPAS-12 (a return from its use in HL, most likely kept because its distinctness, better describe in this video) and the OSIPR AR2 (the Combine's own design of a weapon for humanoid combatants). Most servers that expand the Combine arsenal don't follow this trend, using whatever weapons they think are cool from M9K or RealCS, even if there are more HK weapons in those packs. I made a diagram representing an example of the expansion of the Combine arsenal that would fit this trend of weapons belonging to HK.

    Of course, this diagram isn't perfect, and can be changed to fit your server more specifically, but it gives a nice framework and idea of how to use current HK weapons. There are many more, but they are harder to find in most weapon packs, so I didn't include them. For further research into more HK weapons check this list here. Also, an alternative list here.

  5. Isn't M9K like... Shunned by HL2RP servers?
    Is there any other plugin / addon for weapons that can be used in CW that is regarded "good" by almost everyone?

    you know, ive been thinking.
    if the combine are so fucking advanced or whatever, why do servers have them use human weaponry instead of some cool as combine space guns like the AR2 n' shit?

    I'm pretty sure you can just copy a sample item or an item that already exists and just change the info on that. I've seen a few Clockwork and a different framework schemas that were still able to use the attachment features on them as well.
