DayHard is a single player adventure set before the events narrated in Half-Life 2. You play as Gordon’s brother, Morgan Freeman. He’s not timid like Gordon: he’s able to talk to people, and even to make comments on the situation! Unbelievable, huh? What’s the story? Well, let’s just say that one day Morgan finds the Combines knocking at his door: from then on, it will be a constant fight for survival (We hired Wilbur Smith to write this script).
Throughout his journey he will face many obstacles, fight tough enemies, but also meet few special friends… Even without a fancy suit, or an acceptable knowledge of gravity, Morgan will have a valid arsenal at his disposal, including a shiny katana.
DayHard focuses on being funny rather than revolutionary. A huge amount of scripted sequences are used to give life to idiotic moments, memorable cutscenes and a very rough storyline. The focus here is on action and humour: if you remember that you’ll enjoy the ride. Particular emphasis was also placed on the production of custom voiceovers; expect professional quality. Do you want boring numbers? Here: The mod features 6 playable maps, over 150 new textures, 16 models, more than 150 custom voiceovers, and tons of virtual sweat.

Didn’t care for it. Lack of polish. Teenage-feel all over.

Just finished it and loved it! Great humor, something lacking in most mods and nice scenery. It could have used a little more flash and a few more puzzles but other than that it was alot of fun

Very good mod, BUT, near the end, and the end STUPID. I missed 1 head crab in the restroom, and because of that, I could not progress, and had to battle a antlion guardian, that could not even be killed with impulse 101. Went back down to the restroom, and killed that one lone headcrab, and the antlion guardian was gone. Didnt even need to battle him.. DUMB. Then, the end, there was none. Everybody jumps into a pipe, black screen, goofy music. Not even a cheesy “THEE END.” Just a black screen, LAME! What a shame, because the rest of them game was good.
Worth playin, but disappointing…

Have you ever heard of something called SPOILER ALERT???
Yes you didn’t like the ending, but that doesn’t mean you have to shout it from the rooftops, dude.

Funny, I don’t remember jumping into a black pipe at the end. I remember jumping into a pipe at the end of part 2, but then it went to part 3. Are you sure you played all 3 parts of that?

OK, I just got started on this crazy thing. I have to say that running into JACK CARVER from FAR CRY [complete with red Hawaian shirt and FC dialog yet ; "This place is total chaos!!!"] was one of the funniest and most unexpected things I’ve ever encountered in any HL2 mod.
Based on the reviews here I’m going to try and wade through.

I just found it too…how did desert alienz manage to use impulse 101…when I try to enable the developer consul, it’s not even an option on the menu…so I don’t know how you use codes..anyway, I gueuss I’ll just have to do it the hard way…damn.

My friend and I love DayHard. Favorite mod, along side Coastline to Atmosphere and The Citizen
10th November 2010
I only have three words to say, “BEST MOD EVAR!” It’s perfect! It’s really funny, there’s a little bit of Doom in the game, and I love that game Doom! Combat was awesome, great weapons, and my favorite character is Jack! XD

I really enjoyed this until the bugs and lack of obvious direction began to spoil it. Didn’t manage to finish it, making it just about half way through. The opening was great but by the time you make it down to the street you start to miss scripted sequences and its unclear what you should be doing. If you have time to waste then go for it but if you’re a little more protective of your time then choose a better mod/map before giving this a try.

I came back here to this post because my change up to Win 7 last year seems to coincide with this mod not functioning anymore for me, but now I have to explore the possibility that its sopped functioning for some other reason….
What I am actually commenting on is the comments themselves, I am staggered at what a poor response this mod got, though it is a bit buggy here and there I have to agree. It also could have done with a bit more polish too, perhaps, but in spite of the negatives it is still almost beyond a doubt my favourite HL2 mod.
Why?
Humour, originality, playability, oh shucks I don’t know, just good enjoyable entertainment.
If I ever manage to get past the arms dealer cut scene already referred to above by another commenter and get the mod working again I will be extremely happy.
Given that I have played it many times already I feel fully qualified to give it a PF.
After fixing it, I then need to go and see if the author did any other mods…..I do hope so.
