The Binoculars is an item (used as a weapon) cut from Half-Life 2. It can be found in the playable Half-Life 2 Beta.

Contents

[edit] Overview

  • They cannot be spawned with impulse 101; the code give weapon_binoculars must be entered.
  • They can zoom in to five times normal sight, however the player cannot fire weapons while using it.
  • They were finally integrated into the suit as the "zoom" feature, and the crossbow's scope.
  • Sound files found in its related sound folder also contain garbled voice sounds and the excerpt of a yodeling song, suggesting the Binoculars were to intercept radio signals.

[edit] Trivia

In the Half-Life 2 files, several texture files for HUD weapon icons can be found, most of which still containing the icons for almost all of the cut weapons. The Binoculars are among them.
