The Weapon Box is a casket used by the Black Mesa survey teams to carry weapons, ammunition, batteries, and medkits on Xen.
Overview[]
- Most of the time, weapon boxes are found throughout Xen near the remains of survey team members.
- In Half-Life's Deathmatch mode, weapon boxes are dropped by dead players. When picked up, it gives the user ammunition and the last weapon used by the last player.
Behind the scenes[]
- Originally, the number 3 was on the Weapon Box instead of 8. This can be seen in the source file for the texture in the Half-Life SDK.
- The weapon box can also be seen in Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes, in the mission Building Recon, Downed Pilot and Hankagai. It gives the player all of the ammunition that is available in the game. In old versions of Counter-Strike Beta, after a player dies, they drop this box that contains the ammunition they bought, but cannot be picked up by enemies.
Trivia[]
Despite being small, they can give the player any weapon of any size that the previous player was using in multiplayer, even the Rocket Launcher.
