Half Life 2: Episode 3 Source Code found in DOTA 2 Client

Just like another incident before it, Dota 2 client reveals some interesting info about Half Life 2: Episode 3. It’s a bit confusing right now because Valve had stated earlier that they are going to leave the episodic formula behind and if the leak is true, this is indeed exciting news.

These were the things that were found in the DOTA 2 client:

/src/game/server/ep3/weapon_icegun.cpp

/src/game/server/ep3/weaponizer_concrete.cpp

/src/game/server/ep3/weaponizer_liquid.cpp

/src/game/server/ep3/weaponizer_metal.cpp

/src/game/server/ep3/weapon_flamethrower.cpp

There were also additional code found like: Here’s also some code labelled “sob”, with mentions of ”func_nebula”, “sob_server_ship_system” and “sob_flightplan”.

It feels like they’re are weapon names, which should be interesting because a flamethrower is mentioned. This weapon wasn’t available in the previous games.
