Diving into the water to advance through the tunnels posed a new challenge. The antilons aggressively attacked the gnome, slapping him around and out of my reach. The large tunnels were surrounded in darkness and riddled with never-ending gapes. Tensions grew going into the antilon cave. Instead I got my revenge by shooting him right back into the Zombie’s face. My immediate reaction was to have some sort of Curly and Moe moment from The Three Stooges with the gnome. The zombies often whipped the gnome back at me, which did a considerable amount of damage for someone of his size. Gnome would express himself the same way if given the opportunity. Are they still alive? Are their souls trapped in their mangled bodies? I often wondered if Mr. When they’re on fire, you can feel the torture in their screams of agony. The gnome was also useful as a projectile against enemies, coming through during a surprise attack or when ammo was low. Kill some baddies, pick up the gnome again.
It was a simple process pick up the gnome, walk around. I was dead wrong.įor the first hour or two, it was smooth sailing. Carrying around something for the entire game seemed like it would ruin the experience. Since it was my first play through of Episode 2, I was hesitant to bring the gnome along for the ride. He was also given the name “Gnome Chompski.” The name is a play on Noam Chomsky, the famous linguist and philosopher. Later on in Valve’s 2009 zombie apocalypse Left 4 Dead 2, the gnome returned for another difficult achievement. The gnome can be found hidden under a shelf in one of the early buildings where Alyx Vance and Gordon Freeman try to establish a communication connection to White Forest. “Little Rocket Man” starts near the beginning of the game. The player must use the Gravity Gun to carry the gnome. The Combine reinforcements could eliminate the final traces of the human race, which had just gained a major victory in the war.įor the achievement, the player must bring a garden gnome all the way to White Forest and place it into the missile. The missile would disrupt the Combine by sending out vital information that would close the super portal being formed for their next massive arrival. Released in 2007, Half-Life 2: Episode 2 is the rush to White Forest to launch a missile into space to stop the upcoming Combine invasion. The “Little Rocket Man” achievement in Half-Life 2: Episode 2 is a unique affair rarely seen in games.
