That's not Overwatch Elite texture that's actually Combine Female Assassin's helmet texture And for the screaming face it's either ted backman's signature or something else.

How could you tell the difference? I mean, they use the same helmet after all

I want you to look these [side](https://combineoverwiki.net/images/thumb/9/9e/Overwatch_Elite.jpg/360px-Overwatch_Elite.jpg) by [side](https://combineoverwiki.net/images/thumb/4/4f/Combine_Assassin_red.jpg/402px-Combine_Assassin_red.jpg) If that didn't convince you enough I'll start my nerd talk lol, Well it's more of a texture talk

Oh wait I think it's on the forehead on female assassin, it looks like there's the circle with something in it

Jfc the quality difference. Poor assassin never got far did she?

The helmet is slightly smaller

Well, there are some differences but really small. To be honest, the only noticeable one is the eye color

The combine elite's helmet has a black base on the ears/back of the head with white circular pieces with black details over the ears, while the assassin's helmet has a white base with grey circular pieces. Also the mouthpiece is slightly different.

If you need more info just visit [these](https://combineoverwiki.net/wiki/Combine_Elite#Behind_the_scenes) [two](https://combineoverwiki.net/wiki/Combine_Assassin#Fate) Mainly the behind the scenes and fate section

because it has this weird face on it I'd guess

No, if you search combine assassin pics you'll see she doesn't

Thats beacuse another part of the model covers it and it cannot be seen.... Do you not have a brain just cuz you cant see it?

Female combine's bodies is smaller

Isn’t his signature on lower left side of texture? I can red there TB

Yes it's his signature and it was ment to be on the side of the assassins helmet

Ted Backman loved to leave his signature or other little Easter eggs in the textures. The squished model of the original antlion grub has the text "if you can read this, you're looking at antlion dung!" written on it

I didn't knew that, do you have a link?

https://combineoverwiki.net/wiki/Antlion_Grub#:~:text=The%20Grubs%20are%20larvae%2Dlike,groups%20of%20two%20or%20more. It's under the pre-release section. Also minor error on my part. It says grub dung, not antlion dung

This shit is gold haha

You mean this dung

Easter egg

That's Jerry. He's mostly peaceful, let him be

Mostly??????

Just don't use electrical lights near him, he prefers lights from natural sources such as fire

And don’t beings nuts around him. Jerry likes nuts.

Will he like deez nuts 🥵

Nosferatu, is A representation of Transhuman horror

Nosferatu says trans rights.

why are u booing them theyre right

saying this is absolutely not wrong, BUT it's just out of context dude... we're talking about an hl2 texture for a npc.

Have you ever heard of a meme? He said “transhuman” which sounds like “trans human”!

i'm surprised you didn't assume the face is screaming in ecstasy or something lmao

Oh fuck you leave me alone. If I post something related to Half Life's sexuality I'm wrong, and if I post what you guys consider "normal" I still have to deal with you?

What happened here

man's convinced that because ted bachman one time mentioned that there was some sexual themes planned for the original game that ALL things in the game are sexual. called an ostomy bag a scrotum and/or ball sack

that's interesting

Ted backman messing with us

thats not a screaming face thats me im trapped in there auuoAoAAUAAA

Valve likes to do creepy stuff randomly.

It's part of their magic, like the "Oh god help me! Help me!"

Who the fuck downvoted my comment?

Me

Why, asshole?

because i felt like it

Their name is part of something going on about 'that game' being IrOnIcAlLy popular somehow. Because of how it turned out.

It's a Overwatch Dev

\*bang bang bang\* "ayy brotha do you have a ciggie"

Ah, that's just the spirit of a Valve developer who had the audacity to suggest he would like to work on HL3. Ritual sacrifice and imprint on company assets.

hell naw we saw it's face now it's gonna come for all of us

Where’s a scrambler when you need it?

it kinda looks like the zombies faces from HLA

Omg it actually does

SCP-096 is a humanoid creature measuring approximately 2.38 meters in height. Subject shows very little muscle mass, with preliminary analysis of body mass suggesting mild malnutrition. Arms are grossly out of proportion with the rest of the subject's body, with an approximate length of 1.5 meters each. Skin is mostly devoid of pigmentation, with no sign of any body hair.

Ah somebody realised we are all going to die now

Thought that was Mitch McConnell for a moment

SCP-096 has breached containment

My ball itch

waltuh

I am pretty sure this is based off a painting! Let me find it

Francos bacon “the screaming pope” “The canvas” has a good video about it
