I know this crossbow has been public knowledge for a while, but I figured some people might want to know what it looked like! ( Taken from Matt’s personal portfolio ;3 )

Looking at these images made me think: what does this crossbow fire?
After all, some games depict crossbows firing arrows, but others show them firing other projectiles.
Look at Half-Life, it’s crossbow shot tranquilizer darts, and Half-Life 2’s shot heated up pieces of rebar.
Just a stupid question that popped up in my mind.
Pretty sure the crossbow in Virus was meant to fire explosive 1-hit-kill arrows, since I have a vague memory of this being said. I could be wrong though.

It wasn’t just said, it was in-game during the alpha virus weapon test.
It got removed because bugs or something, IIRC, so never made it into the playable stage of Virus.
