Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

Introduction

As the name suggests Minerva: Metastasis : Parts 1, 2 and 3 contains all 3 parts of the Metastasis trilogy. I am writing this introduction without having found time to play the third part, so I can’t really add any useful information. If you are new this series I highly recommend playing it now.

    I just realized that this is one I did not get to play the second or third parts.
    I simply loved the first, the visuals were really great and the play was quite hard but not unbeatable.

    Need to play the whole thing through again.

    Thanks Philip

    This was the best thing I’ve ever played. Challenging, lovely level design and my crappy computer still kept rather stable, if you think about the size of the maps… Size? No matter? Perfectly Visleaved, that’s for sure…
    NPCs we’re placed very well, and over the text messages from your leader, you always knew what you were doing.
    The only thing I can critize is the amount of Fast zombies you encounter on the beach at the end. But running does the job…

    Play It Now!

    I recently played this for the first time.

    This was the first hl2 mod to make me think, O.o.

  4. Jasper Says:

    I cannot get this to run properly. Downloaded from PP a couple of days ago.
    I have HL2, EP1, EP2, Counter-Strike: Source, HL2: Deathmatch,
    Source SDK Base, Source SDK Base – Orange Box.
    Chapter 1. Runs fine but noticed some small changes, odd.
    Chapter 2 runs but with ERROR in red in many places – just about playable.
    Chapter 3. Is unplayable with ERROR in red all over the place and background is just a splurge. Carried on to the outside but the sky is just bright lights. I had to give up because I cannot see the gunship to shoot it down – just the bright lights.
    All other HL2 mods, including old ones run just fine.
    I played chapter 1 when first out – all OK
    I played chapters 1 & 2 when first out – all OK
    I played chapters 1, 2 & 3 when first out – all OK
    Any suggestions please?

    • planetphillip Says:

      The red errors suggest a problem with your Episode One. Have you run it recently, or is it just installed but not started?

      There should be no difference between my file and any other because it’s exactly the same file, I just renamed it to fit my naming structure.

  5. Jasper Says:

    EP1 is just fine. I started all the chapters and played each one for a couple of minutes (not a fan of EP1 but it was an OK filler).
    If you have an Eureka moment, please share!
    Otherwise, no bother because I only wanted to replay it because of a comment by Kyouryuu “As far as “best mod ever” goes…..” on Research and Development.
    Minerva: Metastasis is full of puzzles but of a completely different nature to R&D. Thanks anyway.
    Sorry, clean forgot about that forum rule.

  6. shora Says:
    Maybe?

    really really overrated…
    when I was reading reviews for “Research and Development”, people compared that to this!!!! noooo f*ckin way….

    Utterly incredible!
    -One of the most original concepts in some time .
    -Clear and progressive story line.
    -Great original maps.
    -Enemies use ass kicking hit and run guerrilla tactics.
    -Highly challenging combat.
    -Highly polished and professional look.
    -Marvelous visuals.
    -This mod will test your HL2 “veteran” status and force you to change your combat tactics more than once!

    A Masterpiece for Adam Foster

    I’m sorry to say I didn’t like it that much, even if I admit there is a LOT of work into it. I guess it was just not to my taste, it’s hard to explain, I felt a little lost.

    I’ll give it 4 stars

    jjawin118 above has said it all and with admirable brevity and accuracy.
    But missed out that there are a few doable puzzles while under fire.
    It’s hard. Your going to die – a lot, so save a lot
    Play it NOW. Drop everything and play it now.

    This is the best half-life universe mod I have ever played. (if not the best) The level design is very technical and flawless. The player always has a clear sense of where they need to go (except when on purpose) and the level design allows the player to experience how massive the world is. Even if the level was crap the one thing that keeps me hooked is the fantastic story telling along with back story that surrounds the character Minerva. Piecing together clues from the sudo-prequel “somewhere else” and the bits and pieces of text on the official mod website has me as intrigued as the mod its self.

    Whether you play games for the story, the atmosphere, solving puzzles, or just shooting things Minerva Metastasis will not disappoint
    PS: If you want a real challenge, play it on hard.

    Personal Favourite

    Possibly the best mod I have ever played! Wonderfully engaging story! Great character, great combat, brilliant island to explore, feels very believable as if it could be in the half-life canon. Highly recommended!
