Remember how they showed you Alyx's fake death scene. First it smashed her, then impaled her twice with it's claws and blocked your way so you can't help her, then she smashed her head to the floor while she still cried for help, then laughed and left her to be eaten alive by Antlions. Hunters are badass.
@@thedude9913 I know the strider is the one inspired on the tripods from War of the Worlds, but the hunters give me a similar horror sensation to the book because of how they run through forests and plains makimg thouse crazy sounds.
@@combineadvisorwithinternet6040 Another theory!, Inside The Hunters there is a Combine Soldier Body/Brain/Soul. Since They can Make jokes and having a Feelings like Winning or Losing and Understand Human Languages. So they made new High Rank For soldiers which is Hunter
I love these enemies because I feel like they really accomplish what they are supposed to be. They are cyborg alien pack hunters hunting you down and that's what it feels like when you are playing the game.
@@topfart14 They're, Hunter is one of the many species that Combine captured from another world/dimension before turn them into weapons with addition of combine technology and mechanics. There fore they're "Cyborg Alien".
They are not - they are Synths. It is an independent entity that shares a resemblance with a living thing and a robot and are quite biorobots which is totally different from what you guys are saying - ffs, read the Raising The Bar article since it's the only trusted source of information compared to stuff like wiki that said a lot of shit in it's days (like resource scavenging, despite Ted Backman's quote of Combine having infinite technology and other weird holes left unexplained in the Universe)
I really love valves sound design for this creature the amount of effort they put in to make it feel like a living creature instead of some regular robot. I feel like I here some primate sounds lol
Something I noticed when listening to the sounds in isolation. It sounds like a creature recently converted. It sounds highly organic, only bionically retrofitted to sound louder and a tad more synth-y. Or maybe they just figured the voice was good enough without much technological modifications.
Most of it comes from gorillas and other primate noises. If you ever hear one, their chest cavities produce some of the most intense and intimidating bellows around.
Its a fucking beast with its hooves, and its knives, and its flexibility, and fletchettes, and it has intelligence sometimes they will release all of its ammo just before death in hope to take its killer with it.
Does anyone else think it's possible that the combine took houndeye's, stretched and molded their dna to the farthest it would go, and then infused synthetic technology to produce the hunters?
Yo...arent they like...grownup houndeyes? :/... three legs? Pack hunting? The vocalisations? Sure no shock wave but still Makes me think what would happen if the Combine messed with the Houndeyes from Half Life 1..
This just goes to show what a good sound engineer can do.
you mean a sound designer?

Yeah, like a houndeye
Honestly, probably my favorite Combine creature.

Robotic dogs given human legs, explosive knives things, and regular knives...that's a hunter

I wonder how many animal sounds they used to put this together?
Btw it’s the strider sounds but high pitched but most are just custom
0:43 that sounds like a baboon so..
I think they used sum cat sounds as well idk
There should be more scenes with the hunters observing you from a hill or something. Theyre so menacing, it would make them even better
Hunters are so awesome :)
+Jimmy Lander ikr
they're so alien, so unnatural. I'm drawn by these sounds
Quantum Cookie they are not alien they are synths
@@topfart14these synths are part alien part robot
And Hunters are so dangerous! They are!
When it's idle it's cute.
+katfyr5 Fuck, It's cute all the time.
*activates ignore players*
It's cute.
@Militärpolizei yea ur right İF İT CHARGES YOU YOU BELİVE YOU CAN FLY XD
There is a part of the game where Gordon frees it from a trap and the hunter likes him and it's so cute
Rachel Utter it’s a mod

You love to hear it
Does anyone else think it's possible that the combine took houndeye's, stretched and molded their dna to the farthest it would go, and then infused synthetic technology to produce the hunters?
That would make sense, because they have unused animation of what seem to be a sonic attack.
i never noticed, omg
0:59 woohoo yeah baby, that's what I've been waiting for, thats what's it's all about
Some fan theories say hunters are just really, REALLY modified houndeyes. And honestly…I agree.
imagine just casually walking down the sidewalk and then turning around and seeing a hunter charging at you
Yo...arent they like...grownup houndeyes? :/... three legs? Pack hunting? The vocalisations? Sure no shock wave but still
Makes me think what would happen if the Combine messed with the Houndeyes from Half Life 1..
All i can say is... oh shit.
hunters are houndeyes on steroids????
Thanks for putting this up. :D Was actually looking for something like this.
