Unused Weapons and Equipment

To do: GIFs for many animations.

• Gas grenade/CS grenade: A gas grenade. The gas grenade was one of many planned features for Gearbox Software's version of Condition Zero. Worldmodel, viewmodel and HUD icons are in the game's files.

• 

  Gas Grenade's viewmodel.

• 

  Gas Grenade's worldmodel.

• 

  Gas Grenade HUD icon unselected.

• 

  Gas Grenade HUD icon selected.

• Machete: Used by NPCs but has a viewmodel and a worldmodel so perhaps it could be used by the player at one time replacing the Knife.

• 

  Machete's worldmodel.

• 

  Machete's viewmodel.

• 

  Pulling out the Machete.

• 

  Stabbing with the machete without hitting anything.

• 

  Slashing with the machete.

• 

  Ditto.

• Medkit: Is used but has an unused placeholder viewmodel that shows purple C4 from Condition Zero. This portable medkit could presumably be used to heal allied NPCs. Trying to spawn this weapon in-game via console (give weapon_medkit) sends the player back to the main menu.

The Medkit viewmodel.

• Syringe gun: May have been either a gun that poisons you or a scrapped healing item. A view model, world model, HUD icons, zone icon, and console error messages still exist.

• 

  Syringe gun viewmodel.

• 

  Syringe gun worldmodel.

• 

  Syringe gun zone icon.

• 

  Healing with the syringe gun.

• 

  Throwing the syringe gun away.

• 

  Syringe gun HUD icon unselected.

• 

  Syringe gun HUD icon selected.

• Zipline: Name says it all. It can be spawned by typing give weapon_zipline or give trigger_zipline in the console (enabling cheats is required). However, the equipment is buggy. Would have been used in "Rise Hard" according to unused dialogue.

• 

  Zipline's viewmodel.

• 

  Zipline's worldmodel.

• 

  Getting clipped onto the zipline.

• 

  Going down...

• 

  Done!

• 

  The Zipline in-game. Note that the player cannot move.

• C4: The classic C4 explosive. While this is used in the training course, it was also to be used by the player. Possibly cut due to being replaced with the Radio-controlled Bomb.

• 

  The C4 viewmodel, from Condition Zero.

• 

  The C4 icon.

• 

  Selected.

• Holster: A "weapon" which is supposed to act as if the player has holstered his current weapon. Viewmodel and HUD icon exist.

• 

  The Holster's "icon".

• 

  Selected.

Unreachable Items

Downed Pilot 1
A FAMAS floating in mid-air is hidden beneath the helicopter. It can be seen by enabling third person mode.

  View from below.

• 

  Side view.

Hankagai 1
With the use of noclip, a kevlar vest can be found in the alley where you fight the terrorists in Hankagai 2.

The secret area in Hankagai 4 is present here. It can be reached by adjusting the gravity or using noclip. The area is blacked out and contains a single medkit.

• 

  The lone medkit.

• 

  Facing the entrance.

• 

  The same room in Hankagai 4.

Secret War 5
Facing the tunnel and noclipping northwest reveals a huge hidden area with assets left behind from the previous map. Touching the ground in this area teleports the player back to the truck.

• 

  Overview.

• 

  Plant your RC Bomb here.

• 

  Assets connected to the truck.

• 

  The commander and ammo pickups.

• 

  Top view.

• 

  Side view.

Turn of the Crank 1
Three big box copies of SiN, one of Ritual Entertainment’s previous efforts, is present in the room to the right of the entrance.

• 

  Seen from a distance.

• 

  A closer look.

Motorcade Assault
In cz_motor1.seq, the attack and subsequent fire exchange have names that suggest the developer had other things on mind while working on it.

i_like_french_toast (first phase, getting in position at the bridge)
with_syrup_and_krispy_bacon (second phase, after blowing up the jeep)
i_live_in_a_bucket (third phase)
pancakes_are_good_too (fourth and last phase)
did_i_mention_the_krispy_bacon (VIP escapes the scene)
yer_such_a_n00b (mission failure, did not complete mission objectives)

Thin Ice 2
The sequence file for the second part of the mission, cz_thinice2.seq, contains a string with nonsense text.

%Squigy_cat
{
	// #text="My CaTS Are FuZZY!!!!!"
}

Training
The texture scroll_text02.bmp, an unused texture found in cz_training.wad, contains a message from ”Rich” (most likely Rich Fleider, co-founder of Rogue Entertainment). Line breaks are added for readability.

ALL WORK AND NO PLAY MAKES RICH A DULL BOY. 
STOP READING ALL OF THIS DUMMY TEXT NOW.
DON’T YOU HAVE SOME IMPORTANT COUNTER TERRORIST STUFF TO BE DOING?  
I THINK YOU HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN READ THIS NONSENSE.
LOOK AT ALL THE PRETTY FLASHING LIGHTS AND FANCY COLORS. 
IT TOOK A LOT OF TIME TO TYPE OUT ALL THIS TEXT. 
CONSTANT EFFORT AND NEGLIGIBLE RELAXATION MAKES RICH A DULL BOY
IT’S REALLY A SHAME THAT NOT MANY PEOPLE WILL TAKE THE TIME AND EFFORT TO STAND AROUND AND READ A BUNCH OF SCROLLING TEXT LIKE YOU DID. 
I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL YOUR EFFORTS.
THIS IS THE OBLIGATORY STREAM OF BINARY: (a bunch of 1’s and 0’s)

Fastline
The unused sequence file for the first part of Fastline, cz_fastline.seq, contains a list of credits. At one point, these were meant to play at the start of the mission before the bomb goes off. The list is edited for readability.

Hidden Difficulty Setting

A normally-hidden difficulty setting can be accessed by typing skill 0 in the developer console and loading any level via console afterwards. This difficulty level is meant to be the game's "hardest" difficulty, with the damage models being similar to multiplayer games.

Unused Sequences

To do: Do these still work in-game?

Pipe Dream 3

Originally, in Pipe Dream the main objective was supposed to be defusing some C4 instead of rescuing hostages, as proved by some unused sound files and this entire thread of sequences.
