NOTE: This video title is technically a lie. Half-Life: Decay doesn't turn 20 years old until November 14, 2021. However, I decided to solve the mystery of this Easter egg several months in advance so as to deny it this accomplishment. Let this be a lesson to the rest of you Half-Life Easter eggs who think you can outwit me for over two decades!
Reuploaded Btw, this video was actually posted a bit back, but it was uploaded as unlisted by accident i believe, so no one got notified about it. I was only able of finding this out through his Half-life playlist, along with some other people
I have only ever seen or heard of the stick bug meme once in my life, and it was this year, on a video made last year. I didn't even know it was a meme until I read the comments on the video where I saw it.
1:59 The climax that this was all building up to reminds me of those comments that find a convoluted way to get to the number "3" and end with "HALF-LIFE 3 CONFIRMED"
It's been like 19 years since this game's release and now we're still finding new things about it. I swear the moment we find ALL of the Half Life Easter eggs. Valve will finally release Half Life 3
Its heavily inspired by the logo of Amuro Ray of Gundam, which is kinda fun to think about when you combine the fact that the Polyrobo is a Zentradi Battlepod from Macross/Robotech. Seems like there was a good bit of proto-weebs on the Dev Team.
Rocksteady: Leaks an easter egg in Arkham Asylum after 3 months of the game release because nobody found it yet Valve: *Doesnt say a single word about an easter egg and let people discover it for themselves after 20 fucking years.*
Valve didn't make the Half-Life expansions, they just published them. Also the entire point of easter eggs is to be found, why tf would they tell anyone?
@@Hypercheeker In Eli's lab there's a machine that the Vortigaunt plugs a device into. The hole that the device slots into is filled with a yellow light, and if you can noclip there to look into it you can just barely make out Gman's face. It's really bizarre.
Matt's signature is basically a reverse version of Action Man's logo, so I have to give him props as a action figure collector, even if it was unintentional.
Amazing work, Marphy, it's really nice to see that you've keep searching easter eggs and secrets in old games like these, i love them, so im glad i am not only one.
Fun fact, his stylized signature heavily resembles the emblem used by Amuro Ray, combining that with the Polyrobo being a Zentradi battlepod from Macross/Robotech is pretty fun to think about.
I wish you could cover "on a rail screams" one day some people theorize it's the death sound of the kingpin, but since kingpin never appears in the game there's no way to prove it
You know, i just realised that "questionable ethics" guard is special He is the ONLY guard that wont talk: With other npc's When he kills something Or about the smell The "dont talk to npc's" code also applies to all scientists found after "we've got hostiles" chapter, but for other reasons They had to scrap it because of two lines "The military clean up its just a paranoid rumour isn't it" And "Someome will come to rescue us, right?" It isn't nessesary to explain why they had to remove their voice lines after "we've got hostiles" chapter right? Well, there's an exception, in lambda core there are 3 trapped scientists wich can talk with each other wich make's sense because it seems that they were trapped in there since the start of the resonade cascade Those details deserve more attention tbh
It never occurred to me that you always see the ending from the same perspective. Edit: Actually, now that I check, it seems that I always saw that simply because I always watched LPs that showed Gina's perspective. Watching LPs that show Colette's perspective (or both perspectives), every one I've found so far shows different perspectives for the two characters. 🤔
This Sunday August 14, 2021 at 15:00 GMT Great Half-Life event the event will try to exceed the number of players who play this great delivery simultaneously, the figure to overcome is: 6882.
Shamefully it doesnt get as love as Opposing Force or Blue Shift expansions. Imo Decay surprass both by far, for being arguably the most replayable Half Life experience thanks to its rank system, instant access to combat chapters and having split screen support.
Matt be like *"Finally my secret signature has been found after 20 years"* I'm glad people are still discovering new things about Half-Life, it just warms my heart xD
So how do you switch to Colette's view? He must have spent more than just a couple seconds programming those electrical arcs even though they can't be normaly seen. Wow.
So I downloaded the maps betrayed.bsp and darkness2.bsp on both my WON CD pre-Steam version of TFC and my Steam version of TFC. For some strange reason, both maps have lot's of missing textures on both versions. How can I fix this issue, Marph?

Now that’s one odd head
People are still discovering things in this game, damn
Gta 3 kuruma :D yes bro its weird. Thing the all games in the world.
The more you know
Kuruma, my favorite shaped car in GTA 3. I totaly agree that Half-Life games are master pieces.
Hello car from GTA 3
Maybe it's because this one wasn't as popular as the other half lifes
The signature design actually looks really cool itself.

not yet
after 1 year it can legally drink alcohol
So is blue shift
@@dabmasterars in Poland it can already
Bruh i've never played decay, is it any good?
Matt's signature is basically a reverse version of Action Man's logo, so I have to give him props as a action figure collector, even if it was unintentional.
And here I thought we'd actually be seeing the TFC Civilian in Half-Life: Decay.
Same
I wonder how many other easter eggs are out there resting unfound
I didn't expect you here
I wonder how many other verified commenters are out there resting unfound
This series will never not have new little goodies to find
ah shit you're here
0:15 😄 I like how he doesn't give a damn about this big explosion. 😂 Can't stop watching this.
This dude didn't even flinch
@@nobodyImportantl0l0l they made him lean forward a little bit😂 mostly a limitation of the engine i bet.
he is not being paid enough to care
After 20 years that egg must be especially stinky.
Not as bad as the so called delicacy of a one hundred year old egg with Chinese porridge
you can eat eggs after a few months by the way. They turn into a kind of waxy substance. Still edible. Not sure about 20 years though.
I think I'm gonna cry. How much more of these will we find?
Incredible just how thoroughly you dissect the HL games.
The game that keeps on giving, love it
The real easter egg is marph uploading more than 2 videos in a single week
I love how you revealed the signature
Other Gearbox employee: I'm telling you that nobody is going to see your easter egg Matt
20 years Later....
This made my brain blown out HOLY SHIT THATS ONE HELL OF A CLEVER EASTER EGG
That coder is an absolute legend
Amazing work, Marphy, it's really nice to see that you've keep searching easter eggs and secrets in old games like these, i love them, so im glad i am not only one.
Yesterday: it’s nice marphy keeps doing these vids about 20 year old games.
Today: the fuck?
Fun fact, his stylized signature heavily resembles the emblem used by Amuro Ray, combining that with the Polyrobo being a Zentradi battlepod from Macross/Robotech is pretty fun to think about.
THE NEW HEV ISNT JUST FOR SHOW!
Matt be like, finally my time has come.
Rest, my friend. You did it!
You have the most interesting half life videos I have ever seen. You dig deep into my favorite game of all time
I wish you could cover "on a rail screams" one day some people theorize it's the death sound of the kingpin, but since kingpin never appears in the game there's no way to prove it
Easter eggs in classic games just had so much personality that is absent with those in a lot of contemporary games and I can’t figure out why that is.
because games were made with passion, and to last, rather than the "eat and forget" stuff of nowadays
Marph always finding Easter eggs and stuff that no one hasn't figure out yet or even think about it. Dang! You are doing amazing man.
Almost twenty years, guys. Almost twenty years.
Now we can finally lay Matt to rest...
That's a very creative way of hiding a signature.
That's a cool way to make a logo for yourself, have stylized initials of your name being drawn by electrical arcs.
fun fact: Matt Armstrong was the man who created the borderlands franchise
You know, i just realised that "questionable ethics" guard is special
He is the ONLY guard that wont talk:
With other npc's
When he kills something
Or about the smell
The "dont talk to npc's" code also applies to all scientists found after "we've got hostiles" chapter, but for other reasons
They had to scrap it because of two lines
"The military clean up its just a paranoid rumour isn't it"
And
"Someome will come to rescue us, right?"
It isn't nessesary to explain why they had to remove their voice lines after "we've got hostiles" chapter right?
Well, there's an exception, in lambda core there are 3 trapped scientists wich can talk with each other
wich make's sense because it seems that they were trapped in there since the start of the resonade cascade
Those details deserve more attention tbh
The amount of stuff put into this game is just out of this world.
I can't believe we are still finding stuff about Half-life to this day. It is crazy man
that's because those game swere made with passion
Two decades and yet people are still discovering things,absolutely amazing
Absolutely love it when a Half-Life video ends with 'Nuclear Mission Jam' playin in the background.
Old school games are amazing. so many hidden things!
2 videos in the same year?
man, this is awesome by itself

Of course kotaku lied to me with their "20 YEARS LATER A NEW HALF LIFE EASTER EGG WAS FOUND TODAY"
2 videos in 2 days
we are blessed
Actually jumped when the nuclear mission jam cue hit on the symbol reveal
I know right? That was dope
It was really badass 😎👌
Yeah mee too

i wonder how many more unknown easter eggs there are in this game.
A good amount I hope, or marph’s meta gonna run outta content
I have just found out that you're the guy who made sc1 vs sc2 unit portraits comparison lol
This could really use a bright flash warning
That's so freaking cool! I wonder if that level of hidden content is in cutscenes from other HL games.
Its awesome that Decay gets so much love and attention and that the fan remake will actually come out and it isnt being made by loonitics.
Shamefully it doesnt get as love as Opposing Force or Blue Shift expansions. Imo Decay surprass both by far, for being arguably the most replayable Half Life experience thanks to its rank system, instant access to combat chapters and having split screen support.
That's a pretty cool signature ngl.
Half-Life series are.. really great, dude.
wow look at you go solvin stuff even after 20 years!!
Just how many things haven't we found in this masterpiece?
I could already feel Marph's brain swirling when "monkey" showed up on the screen.
Matt be like *"Finally my secret signature has been found after 20 years"*
I'm glad people are still discovering new things about Half-Life, it just warms my heart xD
2:10 "...they for a symbol."
Max!
"... MA, Matt Armstrong..."
Fuck!
My computer was sparking the other day, but now I know not to be worried.
I don't see a single egg. Stop lying to us, Marphy!
Dang, matt's arm is pretty strong, yeah?

it's incredible how many easter eggs are in this game, like jesus
Lmao, 0:46 looks like he's took a crowbar to the head one too many times, especially in the thumbnail.
Great job!
Its crazy how after 20 years we found this easter egg, wow
Man, that music is beautifully synced up
I wonder how you found this. Do you disect every Half-life games ?
New Easter Egg: Exists
Marphitimus: A blessing from the lord!
that's a sick signature. mine kinda looks like it too lol.
So how do you switch to Colette's view?
He must have spent more than just a couple seconds programming those electrical arcs even though they can't be normaly seen. Wow.
It really wouldn't take long to write a script that does that; place the boxes down, generate arcs in between specific ones. 5-10 minutes work max.
Two videos in two days? Wow!!
will there ever be a time when you cannot discover anything new ?
Did they hired Arnold Schwarzenegger to say: "Do it now"?
ya know what could be better that instead of a monkey controlling the computer that a consul controlls the computer
How are we still finding secrets in a beloved game franchise from over 20 years ago?
curiosity!
Amazing, after 20 years
Marphy might get hired by the CIA soon.
Good. And now you should focus on that damn Pizza is a Lie BMS Easter Egg because it’s you or not before 2032/2040 to get it
Wooow that's a clever way to put your name in
That is actually really goddamn cool
Thats some classic easter egg shit right there
Holy shit... he waited for this since a looong time
2:39 that's the ROBLOX weld surface type
Nice find, bro
So I downloaded the maps betrayed.bsp and darkness2.bsp on both my WON CD pre-Steam version of TFC and my Steam version of TFC. For some strange reason, both maps have lot's of missing textures on both versions. How can I fix this issue, Marph?
Are you sure you're have the right map files? Both maps have all of their map textures embedded within the BSP files themselves.
damn marphy lose the recording icon in the bottom right I thought I left my nvidia recording thing on.
Your videos of half life are very entertaining.
This will be remembereeeeed
