Black Death - Half-Life

IN SOVIET RUSSIA, HALf-LIFE MODS YOU!

Come on, you all saw that coming.

Admit it.

black ops not black opps

Ok, today I am starting this mode over again, see if I can find an accessible long jump device before reaching that impossible jump…

I will post here on which maps I saw unaccessible ones…

Well, I just reached the point where I was stuck, last time I played this mod.

However, this time there is a moving object in the middle, which should allow me to cross over.

This object was definitely missing the first time I played…

Hello there. I have some stuck problem - I finished the first mission and I’m back at the headquarters but I don’t know what to do or where to go. Please help someone.

Some clever person Said:

Go back to your bunk/room & the next map will load.

Thank you… and here’s another problem. After I shoot down the helicopter I killed everybody in the following building (except my companion of course :)) but don’t know what to do now…

Some clever person Said:

Errr, shot down what helicopter? What map is it?

turma_04

Some clever person Said:

Sorry Andyno. Can’t help you on that one.

I… I don’t understand… I thought you finished this mod…

This is weird because THIS is the first helicopter I shot down. I just get RPG and I used it on this flying machine. And I have to say that I didn’t noticed a helicopter before in this mod. Try to describe “bd_07″ map and maybe I we will go any further.

Some clever person Said:

After the Xen sequence, for your next mission, you’re taken in a truck to your next level. Two snipers up high on towers with spotlights - enter through the big door & it has all the trucks/tanks. Then you go through all these corridors - few buttons to push & finally come out where you started your very first mission.

Eh, I don’t understand what you’re trying to say but I loaded a “bd_07″ map again and I have to say: Of course, this is the first helicopter but there’s no need to shoot it down. After some time the screen will fade to black and you’ll find yourself in a prison cell - this worked for me at least.

Oh, that’s strange. I loaded this map via console too and I appeared in front of the door without any of my hardware or ammo (even my hud disappeared). So I came to that point where the chopper is and I was somehow wondering around and after few moments the screen blackened… and that’s it. I don’t understand why you found yourself in the same place… I hope somebody will help us though…

Try the link now. It’s directed towards Phillip’s Filecloud server.

I’m no mapper and I appreciate the effort that has gone into this mod. The set piece battles in the first mission are difficult and require a stealthy approach in every case. You’ve no chance of running in and blasting away. With this in mind, the many small faults in the map builds ruin the gameplay.
If you can see an opponent, you should be able to shoot that opponent. I know there is a small error with most maps, even the original game. However, standing in plain view of a target and not being seen or able to shoot that target is no way to encourage immersion in the game. Lanching a grenade and having it hit an invisible obstacle near you hurts!
The overall environment design is fairly average, even bland.
Got to admit I gave up during the first mission (are there more?) due to my own lack of enjoyment. The thought of 160 MB of the same kind of stuff, and the above comments, put me right off.

I didn’t rely like this mod and some maps were fell a part a little.

this is cursed, don’t play this!

Slow and steady is vital in this mod. If you run and gun, you can expect to not make any significant progress at all. Grunts are abound and health is rarely seen, so you will need to play smart… or with some clever quicksaves. A few sounds have been changed, which is kind of nice, until you start wondering where you’re dying from. There are also few badly-designed areas where you can venture into and never come back. It’s highly recommended that you manually save after each map change or major firefight.

However, the mod ends abruptly at “bd_08.bsp” with an instant kill trigger. I’m guessing another map was supposed to load but nothing happened. Unfortunately, this killed my motivation, and I’m way too frustrated to try and load the next correct map.
Maybe at a later time…

Also, concerning the max running speed: mine was automatically fixed when I got my “HEV” suit again (in the same place that you got it before).

I take a copy of the config file from another mod that I know has my settings allready set and rename it to userconfig.cfg and put it into the trouble mod.It still leaves the keys window blank but my keys are all mapped right.

Well, it is difficult and I wasn’t expecting so many marines, but I kinda liked it. You just have to be a little strategic, plus sometimes there were 2 packs of health at a time. There’s a glitch in the silencer, I keep seeing it like it’s firing, for a fraction of a second, even when I’m standing still. The mapping’s a bit odd (and a door had a **** on the right but opened to the left ;)) ) and there were 2 marines in start_04 which didn’t move and couldn’t be killed for about a minute, then they woke up. And in the same map I’m stuck. Shot everything and inside, upstairs, after going through the vent, there’s one door left that won’t open, but I’m hearing grunts behind it. This map is not about puzzles and hidden things, yet I can’t stop this feeling that I’ve missed something..

Good and straight level design like older mods from ´99. Menu items are at the same place, so Russian is no problem. A few russian announcements came within the first ten minutes, no matter for gameplay. Opposing Force looked about the same as this, its a long one too. Because there are only Grunt-enemies and a have-to-fight-through-mission instead of Escape-from-Black-Mesa my advice is Play It Now!
