The player assumes the role of a basic Resistance member, hidden away in an isolated mountain base with a small team of soldiers. This base is discovered by the Combine, who send a Strider to destroy the base. Gameplay revolves weakening and damaging the Strider throughout the map as it ascends the mountain trail, giving your NPC allies time to fix weapons and provide aid. The idea was inspired by Capcom’s Monster Hunter series, in particular the Lao-Shan Lung and Shen Gaoren fights. All three maps, mine and Monster Hunter’s, feature a massive enemy that must be weakened and defeated before it destroys the player’s base.]]> http://www.planetphillip.com/posts/three-legged-terror-half-life-2-ep2/feed/ 8 Black Death – Half-Life 2: EP2 http://www.planetphillip.com/posts/black-death-half-life-2-ep2/ http://www.planetphillip.com/posts/black-death-half-life-2-ep2/#comments Sun, 15 Jan 2012 09:24:08 +0000 planetphillip http://www.planetphillip.com/?p=8466 Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3 Black Death is a single-player Half-Life 2: Episode Two level that deviates from the original gameplay.
