And Alien controllers

Is the Nihilanth going to summon minions? I don't remember of he did that in Black Mesa

It will no longer summon minions, this skill has been replaced by more attacking skills.

I wonder if Nihilanth will be able to tear rocks from the ground, or props he's looking at, and be able to throw them. I wondered if the Gonarch would punt rocks/ props like in the game

sure i can do it

Now i'm all excited. Will it, and maybe other NPCS have Controller support? It would be a blast to control the Nihilanth, and go all out with it

maybe those firey death-waves he uses near the end of the fight in black-mesa? that would be AWESOME!

also, an option for him to say his varying lines, as well as buttons for his speech while controlling him!

Nihilanth summons these orange crystals that recharge the shield after the main ones are broken. Maybe he can have 6 out at a time since i'm guessing the primary ones won't be there?

do the aquatic barnacle too

For Alien controllers, they could fight like the ones from the Half life:Renaissance mod. They kind of orbit their enemy, while attacking. The Black Mesa ones seem to control Alien Slaves, and throw debris at you

Movement (vertical only): W & D/Up & Down Arrow Keys

Hand Orbs: LMB

Hand Lasers: Shift + LMB

Vertical Beams: RMB

Firey Waves: Shift + RMB

Prop Levitation and Throwing: LMB on a prop to levitate, then LMB again anywhere to throw it in that direction.

Rock Formation: R

your ruining black mesa just thinking about that

but they did do that. They're much more mobile than the current Black Mesa ones

Is it possible for you to make the Alien Controller SNPC pick up props and throw them at the player and enemies and let it brainwash friendly Vortigaunts since you're not going to make friendly varients of the Alien Slave

I'm positive the Nihilanth will be a beast of a boss! i'm super excited!
