I liked the last battle, too; it was challenging. (I died there more than once, but I did manage to kill the sniper.) What I didn’t like was my spending time there after all the enemies were dead, filling up my ammo and health and stacking barrels so I could get on the roof (dur, there’s a ladder), and then not needing any of it!

I also had trouble finding the elevator controls… (I guess Combine soldiers have vision enhancements, or something?) And the dark water sections, criminy I hate the suit battery draining so quickly.

But aside from my own personal gripes I think this was a really good mod and well worth playing.

Maybe Phillip needs to post a different pic… (Though I’d rather he spend his time on more useful things.)

I thought I was stuck (I thought I learned to look up in a recent mod, but obviously not well enough), so came to look at the pics. And I’m going, Phillip has a crowbar??? How come I don’t have a crowbar??? Whatever.

At first I was so annoyed I felt like quitting. The opening scene is overly difficult, and I don’t particularly enjoy purely trial and error set pieces–I prefer scenes that require forethought and planning. Following that I often felt the mod had been designed by ten year olds who thought that jumping out of a closet yelling boo! is the height of sophisticated humor. I mean, opening a door and getting a headcrab in your face NEVER gets old [rolls eyes]. If HL had a dead cat these guys would have found a way to throw it in your face when you opened a door. But there’s good stuff here, a number of very tricky large-scale battles that were very well done–winnable, but very difficult.

Bravo!

The rebel who’ll use a grenade to blow a hole in the wall won’t do so if your too close to the cell door.

I found it to be more than the average challenge, which anyone who has played it will tell you.Not a dull moment from the start! Died 10 times before I even knew where the hell I was going !

The maps were well done with some new scenery added.The second out door map was a particular pleasure to kick some combine ass
( when not getting my own handed to me ).

A great little mod for exploring your tactical prowess and changing it up and keeping you quite entertained.

A fine piece of work ! I recommend it 100% !

There were only a few times when I had no idea where to go to to progress, and a bit of random exploration sorted that out, at least enough to get somewhere forward, even if I had no idea if I’d missed anything or any areas I was supposed to go into….Fortunately the combat does calm down a bit, and gets a bit more balanced as you go on, but the overall design I thought was very well thought out, and held my interest.

This is definitely one I’m going to go back to and play again.As other commenters have said, if this really is this author’s first HL2 Mod, then brilliant, can’t wait to see if they’ve made, or are making, any more….

If this is a first time mod by the author then it is indeed a remarkable effort, but just wonders whether the author has experience in mapping other engines?

Whilst the maps contains nothing knew for the experience gamer, it nevertheless is a good example of basic HL format, and without reaching great highest in most sphere it is still a very playable mod that is well worth a play through.

The other bug was when I was under water and broke the vent grating to get out of the small room. I couldn’t get inside the vent. I finally tried stacking a box under it first then I was able to go in. I don’t think you can go from the ground straight into the shaft, even though your supposedly swimming underwater and it shouldn’t matter.
Other then that it was a fun mod and well worth downloading.

But after I get past the strider and in behind the wood you broke down with the crowbar. Here im stuck, no where to go and if I go out again the strider one shot me even when I ran inside the house again. That must be a bug and the door up the stairs wont open.

I usually don’t need help to solve how to continue but this time I reallty don’t know what too do.
