    I apologize for the delay in posting this, but with larger, longer mods it always takes me a while to play and upload the files.

    I originally posted this as a demo and it was highly regarded by me and PP readers. Well, you will be very pleased to know that the quality continues. It is without doubt one of the best releases, this year and perhaps ever and will surely appear in the Mod Of The Year 2009 vote in January 2010.

    The quality is abound, in the mapping, it the sequences, in the details and most of all in the gameplay.

    Visuals
    It some parts, especially the city ruins, it’s fantastic, although there could have been more effort put into the areas you can see but not play. I remember waiting for a mini-lift and looking around and seeing an area where Barney and a few other rebels have come from and comparing it to the area I was about to play and it was a stark contrast.

    Besides that it is hard for me to find any fault with the mod.

    Gameplay
    There’s a little bit of everything, for all types of players. I was frustrated to have been killed once when I made the wrong choice and that choice was not clearly wrong. I was also frustrated by image 23, where I was punished for exploring. I didn’t find a way out of there, but please let me know if you did!

    Overall, I didn’t feel there was enough tension building the finale was a slight let down, but not the end sequence, (I’m not talking about the credits, which I didn’t really enjoy, although I accept they were very well done.

    The fact I died because I wasn’t driving fast enough was really annoying, but you could argue that I was constantly told to get out of the city as soon as possible.

    I apologize for picking holes in an otherwise superb release.

    Summary
    Without doubt, you MUST play this mod and I am sure nearly everybody will enjoy it. Can’t wait for Dangerous Worlds 2.

      Philip I’ve never had a problem with any mods/maps on this site before, but this one is a real humdinger!!! I eventualy downloaded it despite my dreadful broadband at the moment(it takes forever to download now, why? I don’t really know,a problem with the local exchange I think as many others in the village are having the same very slow download speed trouble) The thing is; after finally managing to download it,I can’t unrar,or7z un zip it!!! all I get is a message saying no archives found!! I’ve tried all I can think of, but it seems to no avail!! I played the demo with no problem and was looking forward to this full version,now I’m stuck with a downloaded 370megish file I can’t do anything with!! Any suggetions,or help appreciated,thanks.

          Hopefully somebody more knowledgeable will turn up and solve your problems. If not and as a last resort only:
          Go to strategyinformer.com and search by ‘file name’
          Warning it’s an .EXE file 450mb.
          Which is why it’s better to work with PP downloads if you can.(and safer).

            Whoa! I typed without engaging brain first, sorry about that.
            I know the downloads are fine and it can’t be anything to do with Steam because you haven’t got that far. Could be that the problem is your unzipper.
            First see Phillips ‘How to’. Tab at the top of the page.
            In the section ‘Saving and Uncompressing’ there’s link to 7zip.
            It might be worthwhile removing your current 7zip with
            Control Panel but check with Windows Explorer to remove any remnants that may have been left behind.
            Re-install using Phillip’s link and try again.
            Hope this works for you, it’s a darned good mod.

    Dangit, there goes finishing my mods by christmas. If I’m lucky I might actually get around to playing this one sometime at the end of March. Nice to know Phillip likes it though. I’ll grab it now and save it for one of the last ones I play so I finish up my mods on a high note.

      Well, I finally set aside some time to play this mod. Trying to give a recommendation for it is incredibly difficult though. I find that I enjoyed every single part of it, and yet when viewed as a whole it feels entirely disjointed.

      The first map is exactly the same as what you were able to play from the demo. It even still has the glitch where if you get the RPG launcher and SMG grenade, you can blow up the dropship’s cargo before it lands and it ends up endlessly flying back and forth in circles.
      It really impressed me how the entire area manages to tell a story about the life of the character you play as, but what I loved the most was how it was filled with so much optional content; entire events that you could simply not even see or know existed if you didn’t go looking for them.

      After this the maps seem to focus on 2 things; tying into the HL2:Ep1 story and being creepy/scary/mysterious. While either one alone is commendable, it’s my personal view that if you’re going to attempt to tie into the cannon storyline, then you need to be even MORE careful about keeping your mod in line with cannon material. Unfortunately, the “creepy/scary/mysterious” stuff ends up almost coming across as Half Life 2′s version of Race X; it looks neat and would be cool if the mod was standing entirely on its own, but I’m left going “wait, this type of thing never happened in Half Life, does the Half Life universe even allow for this type of thing?” furthermore, none of the creepy/scary/mysterious stuff ever played any actual role in the story, so it felt utterly superfluous. Even Half Life had Gman actually doing something at the end of the game.

      I also noticed that if you went into the passage that the Ant Lion Guardian first comes from, you wind up going across a wooden bridge in the middle of a giant cavern, there’s a ladder going down from the pipe that the bridge is sorta resting on. If you go down the ladder you wind up looking at what SEEMS to be a tunnel, but you just kinda stop when you try to go into it. That part felt like they had originally planned to do more with that section, but then stopped and forgot to get rid of that area.

      The further the mod progressed, the less optional content I noticed. This seemed to coincide with when you started traveling with a squad, which seems mostly understandable since the whole exploration thing works much better when you don’t have a pack of rebels following on your heels. This also seemed to be the point that the mod’s storyline was getting woven in more directly to HL2:Ep1, which may be another reason for less optional content.

      The ending is both cool and incredibly frustrating at the same time. It’s a time sensitive mission, but how much time you have, when the timer starts, or what your time is contingent on isn’t made at all clear. You can even end up only 5 feet away from where you need to get to when it tells you that you ran out of time. The real frustration in this is that the last map transition before the end just ejects you from the car and you have to go running back to get into it in order to keep going.

      There’s also 2 bonus maps. The one is just a simple arena where you have combine, zombies, rebels, and possibly antlions coming into that you can fight with. It seems like it just keeps going til you die. The other is what seems to be the original inspiration for Dangerous World. Essentially it’s a giant battery hunt, it gets rough at one point, but it’s manageable.

      All in all, each aspect of this mod is worth playing it for; the open explorations, the creepy sections, the Episode One tie-ins, etc, but none of the aspects really complement each other terribly well. It’s close, but it just doesn’t quite hit my “play it now” list, but it easily makes “Play it Soon”
      The weird thing is that I think it COULD be “Play it Now” if they only replaced the scenes with the bald guy in black with Gman. It’s not like gman shows up in episode one, since he’s being blocked from gordon by the vorts, so there’s no reason he can’t be wandering around in this mod, especially for those particular scenes. As they currently stand, there’s no reason for them and they have a “Valve doesn’t accept Race X as part of Half Life cannon” effect.

    I played the demo, and I’ll probably love this. It’s awesome so far. One of the best mods ever of 2009. A must freakin’ play. And also, one of my favorites so far. Loads of fun, incredible level design, balanced gameplay and the non-linear feel it gives to the player. Just. Awesome.

    Amazing! This is one of the top five HL2 mods I ever tried.

    Fantastic level design, great visuals and interesting puzzles that fit in to the environment. Spectacular action and epic scripted sequences.

    It also does a good job with the story. This mod is a good example that a good story mod do not necessary need custom voice acting.

    There is almost nothing negative about this mod. The only thing I can think of was a small issue with a scripted sequence not being triggered. Another very small issue is that I think rebels should avoid having a HEV-suit and the gravity gun.

    This is certainty one of the best mods in the history of Half-Lite 2. A future classic!

        When thinking more about it I guess you are right. It does not really have a story of it´s own. It rather incorporate itself in the story of Episode1. The events in the mod fits very well in the official HL2 story. But when doing this, is the mod not actually telling a story?

        Well, I don´t really know. Certain is that this aspect of the mod is one of the reasons I like it so much.

    Play It Now!

    You can compare Dangerous World to a less-polished, more nebulous Minerva: Metastasis. It contains some excellent gameplay and beautiful set pieces, but it feels like the locations visited do not really have a reason to be connected. There were some elements that, while implemented excellently, simply did not make sense being included in the mod. (For example, the creator should pursue creating a horror mod instead of adding horror elements to a HL2 mod.)

    Frustrating instant deaths and a generally bland last few maps leave me wanting more from the creator, who obviously has the capacity to replace those issues with stunning finales and logical warnings of danger.

    Fun, engaging gameplay and level design tend to lead the player through the game. Very cool City 17 battles, with the exception of an immortal strider.

    Overall, an amazing example of HL2 modding. Download this ASAP.

    I felt they should have tested it more, there was so many bugs that made progressing impossible that i had to stop playing. First map had very bad optimization. Eaven the size of it was tiny, gate didnt open, some textures did scale as they should or were alligned badly. On second map i got crushed by boiler or something dropping down on me, i liked the antlion caves, first one i have seen in fan made map. This part lasted like 2minutes, that was way too short.. i got feeling that they just sewed random maps together.

    Next map had some WHITE flashing lights and horrible texture work, when i entered the airduct i fell into some kind of “team poster” room and died on acid. After reloading and using the controls nothing did (once again) happen and i was stuck in the room with WHITE flashing lights.

    After this i stopped playing, i hope the rest of game is better than first part. Another example why you SHOULD playtest your mod before releasing it to public.

    + Antlion caves
    - Several severe bugs
    - bad texture alignment
    - bad lighting, or lack of it
    - Zombiecluster?
    - illogical problem solving and progression,
    most time i had no idea what to do next.

    I dont want to rate it yet, i hope they fix these issues soon.

      It’s all about a puzzle. To open the gate, you need power. To get the power, follow the power cables leading to a tunnel, in the left side there’s a power box, turn it on and there you go, the gate has now power and can be open. White lights? What’s wrong with them. That part in the air duct is actually supposed to screw up with you. So just don’t go there, pretty simple. I agree that the first map had a bit of bad optimization to it, but It’s still awesome.

    After the gorgeous EP2 style beginning from the Demo perhaps my expectations were too high. Unachievebly high maybe.
    I did not mind the recycling of assets from EP1 and even a few from HL2 because those well worn paths were altered.
    However, it did turn into an EP1 mod for me but at least Alyx was not in my face all the time but the flipping antlions were. I find filling antlions holes tedious in the extreme.
    Is it good mod? I think so.
    Will I play it time again? Yes but with very long periods in between.
    I desperately wanted to give it a PF but found it a little wanting ie to much like EP1 and not enough like EP2
    I had no bugs or invisible walls etc and thought the mapping was rather good. The appearance of Dog on the station roof was a great moment of entertainment.
    Combat gameplay was enjoyable.

        (possible spoiler ahead)
        There is also an entrance up above the large pipe. I managed to get up there using barrels and crates but I think there may be an invisible wall there as I kept falling when I tried to jump into it.

    Really good mod – long, varied, put together with much care and attention to detail. It is confusing in places, but never to the point of utter frustration. The use of deliberate dead-ends means you should make sure to quick-save before heading into the unknown!

              yeah, happened to me too the first time. I just had to noclip through the wall and knock the ball out that way.

              That means that barney won’t do his scripted event and you’ll probably have to noclip your way through the next door as well, then a new map will load, and you should be fine.

              It doesn’t really effect the game much, on the next map you spawn with some rebels, and barney comes out of thin air a little bit later as well.

    There were differences between the Demo and this, obviously in the opening stages, but no problem with that – it has been “polished”.

    Later, sometimes I was killed or severely damaged for simply going to the wrong place – annoying, but not a major problem. But it shouldn’t happen.
    (Phillip- image 23 – I had the same problem).

    My machine crashed several times at the “garage ” towards the end – when the antlions are chasing, and the barnacles catch them, and the zombie combine. If I tried to fight it out – crash! — I got through it by running up the the stairs and hiding, this stopped the antlions coming and the barnacles dealt with most of them and the zombies too!
    It worked, but somehow it didn’t feel right.
    It might also be a problem with my machine, though I’ve not not had any similar problems before.

    That sounds like a whinge – but it’s not really!

    Excellent mod – I was actually very disappointed when I finished it, simply because it was finished!
    I would like to have continued for much longer.

    And I thought the way it tied it to the main story was brilliant!!!especially when you overhear Alyx and Gordon after their traincrash.
    I think that demonstrates how much thought went into this.

    Well worth playing —- and Well Done to the Mod team.

    There was a lot to love in this mod, and I’d like to thank everyone that helped to make it possible. I loved the tie-in elements with episode one!

    There were a few bugs, but what really singed my fur were the horror/gotcha elements. In at least three places, the player is killed for exploring the map: the hazard pit, anti-gravity skeletons, and a tunnel-lurking G-Man. Easter eggs are fine. Easter eggs that kill you, not so much.

    If you can shrug off the team’s mean streak, it’s a great mod!

    I guess we have to consider this mod as one on the major releases of the year, certainly with its fine mixture of action and puzzling out the path ahead it’s on par with the best this year.

    I did not remember too much about the demo version and find the first couple of levels not that inspiring, an opinion I am sure many will not agree with.

    It seemed to me that the author had not quite made his mind up whether the balance of the gameplay was going to be action or situation solving, and we ended up with a couple of confusing early levels that were frustrating to a degree due to a few obscure key links, noticeably the power supply box and switch in the opening sequence and the valve wheel in the next level. I can imagine new and or inexperienced players given up during either of these levels with the second level being particular difficult to figure out. In the end I managed to locate two valve wheels but neither was easy to find with a tortuous path to the second.

    For me the mod improved with progress while remaining a challenge throughout, be it Combine and their hardware or solving situations the gameplay balance settled down on an even keel, and whilst hard at times the fun factor improved with Dog and the car ride. This was another mod whereby the author seems bent on challenging the player with every piece of hardware in the Combine arsenal, resulting in some tremendous battles at both street level and in the air, not to mention one unique sequence with an apartment building’s front blown-out such that one was exposed to enemy fire from both within and outside at street level plus a gunship thrown in, great mapping.

    The standard of set- design and detail content is admirable all through the mod with no apparent short cuts taken the author packs every sequence with meaningful content, such that every set needs to be explored for avenues, twists and turns so adding to the already rich vain of situation play that runs through the game.

    Where this sits among and alongside the previous 2009 releases will no doubt be established shortly by PP members, for sure it must be considered a top ten candidate, for the time being I will recommend a play it now.

    I played it in half a day it was pretty fun. The creepy part were… Well… Creepy… I see how those parts tie into his story and the Half-Life story. But the one part where that skeleton comes at you with all the lockers just doesn’t make scene. Maybe in Dangerous World 2 he will tell how the guy has brain damage. I don’t know. But over all he did a good job tyeing his story with Half-Life’s story. I really liked the open exploration. It was alot of fun looking in every nook and cranny. But when I got to the rebels I felt like I was being rushed and didn’t have time for exploration. But all in all it was fun. The ending credits were awesome too. And if you wait till those are over you will see the background map for Dangerous World 2. This mod is a MUST play. I mean it’s just awesome. Also I must say this game has some great cinematics. Go play it.

    Undoubtedly one of the better mods that I’ve played. I loved that little extras that were put in, such as that ghostly bald guy and those shock hallucinations. Game play was very solid. Level design for the most part was superb. The only aspect that prevents my full endorsement is the bugs. Sometimes, the shock hallucinations would kill me although they apparently weren’t supposed to. Also, I’ve run into a few invisible walls that killed or stopped me when it really would have been better if they were not there. Besides the bugs, this is a mod that everyone should at least try out.

    This was easily a PF from start to finish.

    The transition from fighting zombies, headcrabs and electric fields alone and underground to fighting combine and striders above ground with the help of rebels, played out perfectly.

    This mod had about the right amount of non-linear gameplay giving it a nice level of exploration. Repetition and boring gameplay did not exist here.

    The final cut scene was done well enough that it deserved a few replays. Even the credits deserve recognition.

    No negative comments aside from a few minor glitches.

    Got stuck in a couple of places:

    The first was just after you meet the first Strider and end up in a building with a central stair case. I’d killed everything that needed killing and must have missed a trigger as nothing else happened until I reloaded. The issue was down to the vent over the energy ball thingy not blowing out he first time, it did perfectly what it was supposed to on re-loading though….

    The second was at he (shut) train station, when Dog seemed to go into a bit of a loop and things went a bit bonkers, on re-load though he smashed the wall and it went on ok from there…

    The Bonus Maps were very good, though I can see why you left them out, they’re not quite up to the finished article standard…but still streets ahead of many other mods out there….!

    A definite Personal Favourite, no matter what anyone says, Valve should be in touch in due course with that job offer……

    I seem to have trouble with this mod. It looks fantastic and I played the demo a year back with no problems. But this time I keep experiencing crashes whenever it is loading the second map (after I open the gate). As a result I never got past the first map :( . It crashes even when reloading the first map from a save. I tried lowering the settings and playing through the first map without reloading to no avail. I don’t think it’s a problem with my comp though because I replayed Ep2, R&D mod, and Offshore mod without problems. The only error message I receive with dangerous world is that during map loading, the game either gives a”hl2.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close” or the system freezes up forcing a hard reset. Hopefully the author releases a patch to fix these problems as it seems to be a great mod. It would suck for players who have problems like mine to miss out :( .
    I have HL2, Ep1, Ep2, sdk base 2007, HL:S, and CS:S installed and they run fine. I hope the mod isn’t trying to access Portal game files because I don’t own Portal. Thanks to anyone who can provide help.

    Not a bad mod. A few inexplicable crashes/freezes and no way (for me, anyway) to finish the car race in time. Not even noclipping to where Dog waits avoids the mission failure messsage.
