I thought it was gonna be a fake out. Like you arrive, they think you made it, then last second it takes you back to City 17.

should have made it so the portal never malfunctioned at all and just teleported him instantly

There's a million and ten ways to spin this idea, as far as i can tell no one has done this before and i didn't realize that people would end up actually having any interest at all. With that in mind, i wanted the successful teleport to be more of a surprise that it worked rather than just a perfect teleport. Every event in Half-life basically ends up a shitshow of unfortunate events and i didn't feel too keen on dumping the ENTIRE sequence along with all the dialog. Quite frankly it wouldve been 100x easier to just have made it work perfectly and skip the dialog and the "drama" The second issue is that with no malfunction occurring at all, Breen wouldn't be informed of Gordon's return so that's one more story element (among quite a few) that would require alternative ways of resolving

Yes its game-breaking story-wise, but it would be a neat gimmick for a mod.

Cool idea, story wise it could likely work since Mossman was a double agent sharing secrets to the Combine, wasn't she apart of the reason why the Combine attacked? They knew all along where Black Mesa East was, I'm sure what made them attack was that Mossman gave the go ahead. Weapon progression-wise, that's a little tough.

@damsen978 Her true loyalty was always elusive to me, though I cannot exactly say with certainly what her deal was. Maybe she really was working for the Combine, but she decided to turn on Breen at the end after he threatened to send Eli Alyx and Gordon through the Combine portal. Either way I think it could work for a mod like this.
