==Barnacle as a weapon==

In the expansion pack ''[[Half-Life: Opposing Force|Opposing Force]]'', Black Mesa scientists have been able to successfully detach barnacles, albeit with a high failure rate. The player can use a detached barnacle as either a weapon or as a grappling hook. Both functions take advantage of the affinity of their tongues for [[Biological matter|organic matter]].


It appears that, with the destruction of [[Black Mesa Research Facility|Black Mesa]], Resistance scientists have lost the facilities to successfully detach and adapt a barnacle as a weapon, explaining their absence in [[Half-Life 2]].⏎
