Can you bring Dog's ball to the end of Half-Life 2?

I continue my adventure with our beloved ball!
For those curious, the "Balls Lost" counter goes up when I lose ball or when ball is destroyed. Essentially if I must reload a save due to losing ball, then that contributes to the counter. Me dying or crashing does not count towards it.
"Impasses" are points where I had to resort to commands and cheating to get ball to follow me. This ranges from teleporting ball to creating an entirely new one.

@pike0469 I agree.

the dog's rollermine is like the companion cube.

what do you mean? that's a ball! I see no rollermine

[@ZezzyBeepUltra]

We must make an hl2 mod for the episodes that allows ball to return

[@khornelordofskulls7090]

in EP1 he's among the rubble somewhere at the bottom of the citadel, and in EP2 he's on the ground below the train

[@Lunarcreeper]

i think the reason the mega gravity gun does that to the ball is cuz when you grab npcs it kills them and turns them into a ragdoll, but it breaks when it tries to do that to a rollermine. a similar bug occurs if you try to do it to vortigaunts, they just give birth to a vortigaunt ragdoll .

[@madladam]

Dog also births a ragdoll. It's really funny

Thing is, about carrying the ball to the end, in fact you can relay only on npc_select/teleport command you dont even need to make new one, its about right timing, for example, when you are in pod in citadel ride and you do npc_select on the ball before you enter the pod and then after you hit the loading trigger, in small time span you are beeing teleported to white box, then you can to npc_teleport, when you load into new map i belive you can do npc_teleport anywhere you want after the loading, so yeah its possible to carry the same ball for whole game, i know its hard to explain like this, at this point im making steam guide so i hope in near future, there will be more explanation, great video btw

[@PigeonofTheFrogs]

5:29 okay, that's adorable.

[@henrycrystal9740]

In an alternative universe a ball is asking if he can bring Dog's Gordon Freeman to the end of Full-Life 2

I never think this ball would be cute with those sounds used as language 🥰

[@darkdemian7747]

Can we all be honest? The roller mine that follows you and cant attack, also making sounds looks adorable

[@StarFall78]

to the guy that suggested it, thank you for your service

[@sillyfurry6142]

definition of a loyal owner

[@SwiftBlitz.]

There’s a fork of the game on steam called Half-Life 2: Update they should amke it so you can take the ball with you like the gnome, and NPCs don’t target the ball

[@rogeryscankill962]

one must imagine gordon happy

[@leepik28]

5 times more charming then wheatley

[@TinyDeskEngineer]

Someone should make a hl2 mod that modifies the maps just enough to allow the rollermine to be brought from Black Mesa East all the way to the top of the Citadel. Maybe the rollermine's all we needed to kill Breen for good.

[@yuchen2717]

oh my god i didn’t think there was gonna be a sequel

[@NeoTHEDragon13]

because of this, I have now named the ball "clementine" idrk it seems like it fits

[@madladam]

Nah when I tried this, my sister named it "ReginAld". Its name is just "Ball" though, as that's what Alyx called it

[@NeoTHEDragon13]

[@zCREz]

There must be a less "cheaty" way to get Ball thru the prison tho, no? 🤔 Either way ,thank you for continuing the run! Oh, i suppose it ends with the teleport nontheless?? hahah

[@TheMateYT]

The second I mentioned how the symbols on the ball resembles the absolute solver you mentioned it. Crazy

[@user-fz8hw5nu1d]

By the way, by the time i watched it, i already passed the ball to the end and found this a bit funny to watch as someone got the same idea as me! Glad that you showed everyone how to do it. 🏀🥇

[@cinfdef]

I desire Ball to reunite with you in the Episodes, who cares of continuity!

1:18 I tried to the same run as you did when I saw your last video and then I also realised that. Finally had a reason to make a reddit account, also... SOLVER BALL!!!

I very much doubt that the ball was just there in the garage

Take it through the episodes. Also for fun, take it through Black Mesa (?) and Entropy : Zero perhaps

[@TheBorisGuy]

Now make this with "Pick Up That Can" Guy

Now… episode 1 gonna happen at some point?

[@theoncomingstorm7903]

Someone needs to make a mod for this that removes the impasses (the npc_clips + allowing props to go with you though the Nova Prospekt teleporter)

[@floggerpogger-bb3ni]

dog ball episode 1 and 2 might be possible since npcs files will not effect them through the episodes

I toke a friendly turret from as far as i could you should do a run where you do that
