for some reason I'm still fond of that weapon.

It's sad you don't like the Beta, since it's an incredibly fascinating thing.

I would like to see a Combine Guard gun with the original effects from the beta (the aligning lasers) and possibly use the model the guard used.

(the greenish-yellow gun, not the brownish one.)

i pretty much see that oicw almost everywhere already and get a bit tired of it as soon as i see that green scope, i do like the fact they were planning to bring back the old health and hev chargers though, the manhack arcade, hopwire and hydra was a good concept too but thats about it (hecc the gauss didnt needed to be cut)

Sure, that's one thing people focus on, but that isn't the entire Beta.

It's actually very fascinating (plus I am a huge fan of some of the guns, particularly the OICW, MP5K and GR9.) and it has a whole host of interesting cut content, monsters, and lost media.

Also the Beta was a rough draft. It's called the "Beta" for a reason (despite such a term being somewhat of a misnomer), Sure it didn't know what to do with itself, but it was being heavily worked on by the time Gembe took that fateful copy for himself.

It's very mysterious and interesting. Sure we have "dark in griddy", but there's also a lot of weird things that people are still mystified with.

The levels had no sense of direction and people everywhere be like "ouoo dark and griddy child slavery"

"I fᴏckin hate beta btw"

Was that a joke? Because the HL2 Beta isn't just one thing, it is a whole repository of unused things and a slice into the development of one of the most influential and well-acclaimed games of all time, fascination with the beta inspired people to create JBMod, then GMod and a whole host of other projects.

The Beta's weapons are also very interesting as much as the other concepts people got to look at. It still continues to captivate many minds to this day.
