I'm old enough to remember the reviews of HL2 which marveled at the same kind of AI. I distinctly remember my experience first playing, when enemy AI ducked behind a crate, and radioed for help. At the time this was amazing, as most enemy AI in other games would blindly run into your stream of virtual bullets - let alone radio for backup.

- josefresco 10y agoI think (due to my advanced age) I got my HL's confused. It was in fact HL1 - thanks for jogging my memory, from one old guy to another.
- vocatus_gate 10y agoYou could be forgiven for making that mistake. The Combine soldiers in HL2 functioned in much the same way, even better in some cases. I've played through both games a number of times and the firefights play out differently each time.
