Half-Life: The Seven Hour War | A Half-Life Cinematic [SFM]

The Seven Hour War was a brief, but decisive confrontation between the Combine and the governments of Earth, ultimately leading to a large human death toll and the Combine occupation of the entire planet.
In this cinematic we follow the brave individuals who stood up against the Combine invasion, until we come to a conclusion in bloodbath of a final showdown.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In-depth disclaimer:
When making this cinematic, I felt like the aspect of keeping most of the Half-Life 2 elements in it would also make it feel more nostalgic and recognisable.
Yes! I do know that the Combine Soldiers, also known as the transhuman forces, did not take part in the Seven Hour War. :P
Also by adding elements from other universes than the Half-Life one, they could possibly spice up the battles a little. Know one knows for sure which types of military enforcements the Combine used to take over planet Earth. (As of now!:D)
My interpretation is but one of many other possible outcomes, but I really hope that you all enjoy my work and effort in creating what the Seven Hour War possibly could've looked like!:)
-------------------
For a while I've had the idea of portraying the Seven Hour War in a cinematic style, and as soon as I heard Valve would be releasing a new Half-Life game, it instantly gave me enough motivation to get started, and begin to dive back into the amazing universe of Half-Life that I had enjoyed throughout most of my childhood!
Hopefully this cinematic will also have an impact on you guys, and get you in the mood for the new Half-Life: Alyx which will be releasing about the same time as this film!
Soundtrack: Half-Life 2 OST
Used under the Valve Video Policy.
Thank you for watching! This'll be the beginning of a new chapter for me and my KZbin channel, as I have finally figured out what sort of content I actually enjoy making, rather than the feeling of needing to satisfy a specific audience!
Stand by for more cinematics and short films like these! :D

The Combine forces you fought in Half-Life 2 as Gordon Freeman are only acting as the police force, the real Combine army is much, much stronger. So strong it stomped The United Nations in just seven hours.

[@Drikkerbadevand]

This, what you see in the games are simply 'peacekeeping' (if you can call them that) units left behind, and some advisors obviously. Much superior technology but largely relying on captured/willing humans to be transformed into combine transhuman soldiers. This is why it's such a big deal that they blew up the citadel and closed the portal with the Xen resonator rocket because they essentially cut off contact from the local, comparably much weaker combine forces on earth to the main empire, and the combine hadn't developed localized teleportation so they were stuck with manual transportation around on earth. Earth is even considered to be only of marginal interest to the Combine empire and they already tapped alot of earths resources and sent it offworld, so it's not completely unreasonable to think they'll maybe just cut their losses and not even bother tryng to reestablish contact and create a new portal to invade once again

@@vibaj16 most likely not higher management, more likely genetically modified pawns to properly administrate worlds and populations of certain sizes, presumably just in emergency cases, as we only see them dormant in half life, that is up until the point where the combine-made human government falls apart, and the advisors assume leadership roles. Additionally, I find it highly unlikely that the combine government are a single species. Earth is a small island colony to the combine at most, but almost certainly much less than even that, in such a case its possible that a combine government agent was never actually sent to earth.

[@lmonid]

This video must’ve taken forever to make! And even if non-canon elements were used, it’s a great SFM film! But if you were to re-make this, here are somethings you could improve on: 1. Change the Combine OTAs to Combine Supersoldiers from the Beta. 2. Possibly have a cameo of a Cremator. 3. You can still have the Tripods and the squid looking things 4. Use some Xen wildlife such as Headcrabs (not fast or poisonous, they came after 7HW), Antlions and maybe bullsquids and hound eyes. 5. Try to remove combine elements in maps; such as the citadel, combine walls and barriers. 6. Approaching the final hours of war, you can have OTAs (because by this time, they would likely have prisoners now combine trans-humans) 7. Try to make buildings look damaged of destroyed, to show a war is going on. 8. (This is more a question) What is the creature summoned through a portal in the hidden combine outpost? 9. Perhaps use Mortar synths and Crab synths. 10. Maybe show the Combine Mothership, if you don’t know what to use, I’d think of a large mortar synth or maybe a giant advisor pod. And if you can, show maybe portals on earth rather than outer space. But it is canonical that some portals were in the solar system rather than earth. These are only suggestions for if you make a new version. But the final piece here is still perfect!

A crazy good animation indeed, since it pertains to Half-Life lore. But something important I need to ask, was this before the surgery pertaining the emotions of OTA members? I can spot fear in OTA members within the animation.

[@jon9719]

Sinks emotions like fear are kept in. This is so the combine can still threaten them with off world duties or death.

@@jon9719 old comment i had ofc and I had learned about it over the constant mention of them getting relocated which goes to show a probability they have a bit of thinking going on in there to stick around with earth thanks for swinging by anyhow, but I have a changed viewpoint 'bout this knowing the overwatch soldiers of the transhuman arm were somehow already a thing in this animation

Someone should make a version set in the UK during the Seven Hour War

[@redactedagentdataexpunged9431]

@Dat Boii hahaha No seriously I mean like the Combine pummeling London whilst the British Army attempt to evacuate any citizen stuck in London during this, whilst the RAF attempt to take out many flying Synths up to the jets and helicopters finally being brought down once and for all. Eventually then we see the Royal Navy being pulled out of the ports as a way to protect from other synths, either flying or boat like synths

I Really like this movie, even though it's not the perfect animation but this is an masterpiece..I like the theory about wallace breen joining the combines and yeah also i like that the combines invaded earth through the portal at the start also another theory is the tripod..The tripod really seems like an strider tho, so that can get to an another theory. But anyways! This is absolute masterpiece to the Half life Universe.

[@antguy3195]

I really want to know what the Combine used to invade Earth with. They probably used the same Synths, but the OTA forces (Combine soldiers, shotgunners, elites, metrocops, stalkers, etc.) were introduced as a policing force for Earth alone, not actually as a main army.

[@Candy45655]
