Half-Fortress

[the monopoly guy]

I loved the Valiant Sailor one, once again the letter felt unecesary, as anyone who's played Half Life 2 would be able to identify him getting the boat with the airboat level in the game. As for the Spy postcard, this time I felt the letter went along with the picture well, making it funnier.

Did Concerned go to the episodes? OH SNAP! I hope to!

The criticism is welcome, but just a friendly FYI to our critics, all the web-comic help I've looked at is just simply "Make a web-comic that's either a rip-off or a cliché, because the world will never notice", or no help at all. (eg. the web-comic Zero Punctuation). Therefore in a sense this idea is outright pioneering and trail/error for our part. Reiterating; criticism is welcome, but "Make it better" isn't all that helpful.

for me, this comic is fine, ive already read somes TF2 comics made in the tradicional way and somes of these issues are nice.

but like someone said, it wouldnt be bad if you worked a bit in the pacing, also, what happened with the medic? waiting in black mesa east just like Alyx?

oh and about the wonders of city 17, i think all that destruction was made by Gordon before the Vladimir would arrive.

Requesting epilouge where the Demoman drinks the radioactive water, please.

[img_inline caption=But what became of Medic? Is he just sitting around at BME? No, no. Remember the accident with scout and him being crippled? No Uber was existant, it seems. The Medic was assault Medic, not helpful Medic. Now, he can help. Plus I forgot the medigun to start with. width="700"]http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/4986/blackmesa5xm3.png[/img_inline]

It would have been funnier if you healed Eli's leg.

 

[Anarchemitis]

That would've been awesome. Alas I do not have 3DS Max 8 (I have Max 9) nor XSI 5, so I couldn't modify models.

 

[x434343]

Well it did. That's why the leg isn't in the shot. It's unremarkable.

camera tricks, (and mabe a bit of photoshop)would have been a good idea.

so, this time the medic didnt had his medigun, until with the help of Eli invented it.

so why all the medics of half life give you medkits instead of heal you with a medigun?

 

[Clairaudient]

You're living the glamorous underappreciated webcomic creators dream.

I enjoy the comics I suppose, I mean, I keep coming back to read more.

They haven't actually made me laugh yet, though that's a very difficult thing to do. They are enjoyable however and I would like to see more.

[img_inline caption="So to make the audience and ourselves a bit more aware of the infirmity which Scout resides, we did this one, also to show how much fun Demo is having. Or more appropriately, lack thereof. There is a notable detail that may become relevant a bit later, but lets not Concern ourselves with that. Yet." width="700"]http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/3663/blackmesa4ji5.png[/img_inline]

I just realized...

"Pyro refuses to eat or remove its mask."

Haha, it.

 

[Anarchemitis]

We had that comic in reserve for post for over three weeks and you only notice it now? That is hilarious.

Simple. Medic stole the only working copy.


[img_inline caption=So, this was not the original shot. This was the second chance shot. The first one had a nice view of Ravenholm, but it ended up being too... odd-looking. This is the compromise. width="700"]http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/5889/14copyog3.jpg[/img_inline]

it amazes me that the Engie was the one who suggested to open their way blowing up stuff

 

[OverlordSteve]

Aw, I would've liked to see how they would fight the helicopter.

[img_inline caption="This one serves how Medic & Heavy are reunited thus ending the Canal chapter. Upon reflection it is quite short, and maybe we'll revisit it sometime." width="700"]http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/1328/blackmesa6iz4.png[/img_inline]

 

[the monopoly guy]

Hey, I can be a pre post judge.
I thought the scout was in a rather awkward position, he seemed too lifeless. I liked the pyro though. Also, is the deatail the intelligence?

When the heavy is hugging the medic, his medi gun should have flung forward, or to the side, noticibly out of his hand.

 

[Anarchemitis]

Sure thing. Ask aboot it in Steam.

[img_inline caption="This one we both imagined promising, and it was, but was difficult to get a nice panorama when all the detail is on confining streets. Also, a panorama would be devoid of Zombies. this was amended with the addition of the photograph. The pen and Grenade were added in post editing, made from scratch. You can't find ANY pictures of the normal grenade on the internet." width="700"]http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/3874/16copyox8.jpg[/img_inline]
