The fact that the war to conquer the earth was called 'the seven hour war' tells you a lot too, it not only tells you how overwhelmingly powerful the combine is, but also how meaniningless the earth must be to the combine if they're that powerful and cover so many worlds in so many universes. In game the only reason why the resistance succeeds is because there's so few occupying forces, again it shows how trivial the earth is to them, and why closing the portal to stop them bringing more is the main goal

[@Eatmydbzballs]

Also didn't help that by the time The Combine arrived on Earth society was on the brink of colapse due to the week long effect of the Cascade all across the globe such as Headcrab Zombies, Antlions, and Portal Storms.

[@redskies2482]

The combine are powerful sure, but not invincible. The Union from my understanding pulled their forces not in an attempt to show how trivial earth is to them (Though it could be seen as such) but the Combine were already struggling with their forces being spread as thin. As ruling across many realities and planets can exhaust alot of resources, and it comes back to just this. Resources. The combine pulled their military for preservation of resources. Instead opting to create peacekeepers from humanity. This would be cheap for them as they could use already existing earth resources and minimal combine tech. Though it looks expensive most of the overwatch suits are cheaply made. Giving just enough protection for each role to do their job and not an ounce more. This does include high ranking overwatch like ordinals and elite combine. This was until the discovery of the borealis. This would send the combine into a frenzy as this tech would solve all their issues, they needed it and risked it all. Eli knew if the portal reopened the combine would not hesitate a second time and obliterate everyone as securing the borealis was important enough to them that they would pull even more forces, risking probably several frontlines in other realities to secure this for study and intergration.

The downside to all this centralization is that if even one part of the Combine's hierarchy were to fall, the remaining hierarchy and support structures are too reliant on the hierarchical command for allocation of resources or labor, and the infrastructure needs to remain connected with the greater Empire beyond Earth would be shattered. This could lead to a complete failure of their dominion on Earth, at least. The right man in the wrong place could shatter the Combine's presence on Earth.

[@kabob0077]

Or the Multiverse...

[@OhNotThat]

Your criticism or supposed "downside" is missing the forest for the trees. The fact is the hierarchy lost connection with the "empire" (not that the combine would even call itself that, it's a human term) it's utterly irrelevent how this disconnected portion of the whole fares by itself. It might as well cease existing if it no longer proved useful to the Combine. Even men like Dr Breen don't appreciate how utterly disposable he is.

[@OhNotThat]

What makes Freeman in particular terrifying is not just that he's genuinely a threat to combine rule over earth, but also Combine existence in general. Especially considering the fact he is obviously working at the behest of some mysterious other worldly entity who has now turned on the Combine for, again, mysterious unclear reasons. In half life 2 beyond Freeman's direct overseerer/boss "the G-man", we aren't sure who is supposedly is working for because the G-man thing is just a middle man of sorts, "a fixer" for unseen intelligence/entity/force. This unseen entity decided over the events of half life 2 to turn against and end the Combine for again, unclear, unknown reasons.

If I'm correct the combine reversed engineered some of humanity technology to use it to manufactured their own version

[@DisgruntledPeasant]

Yes! In fact it's highly suggested that the resource that the combine is on earth to take is our minds! The combine have the technology to warp between different universes, but lack the technology to teleport between places in a single universe when they're there. Its when humans invent portal technology that the combine invade, and they seem constantly surprised by human ingenuity. You even see that they start shopping human soldiers offworld because we are so damn adaptable. Its all kinda suggesting that the combine themselves lack creative and adaptive thinking somehow, perhaps all their technology is stolen and they have lost the ability to creatively develop their own.

They only show up when we develop portal technology: a tech that even they don't have, and actively want (they can warp between dimensions, but can't teleport between locations once there. Making their home portal a huge vulnerability). Similarly they are shipping human soldiers offworld because we show a degree of creative adaptability their other troops don't have.

The war was 7 hours because Breen surrendered as the only human that can communicate been that way the only Earth's representative and they only keep humanity alive because they want the local teleporpation technology and they almost had it, surely Mossman was trying to develop it for them in the slowest possible way. Since Breen was the causative of the black mesa incident and knows about the G-man I believe that he did an agreement with G-man in order to rule the planet.

[@warbossbrony6107]

Yet they were over thrown by a guy with a crowbar

[@historynoble8945]

this was explained by why this was the case in another comment, but it's because the combine saw earth as such a small factor to their galactic empire that they didn't have many readily available troops to defend its foothold. At the time of their invasion, more specifically: the status of control, hasn't gone on long enough (or hasn't been devoloped enough) to reach communications to the hierarchy to send troops through the portals to fight the resistance. If they did have that kind of communication power, the resistance would have been annihilated in less than a month, if not within two or less weeks.
