Enemies from Opposing Force in the original Half Life maps

[EiNAR VoN HäXEN]

This is a quick question from someone who played Sven Coop a long time ago, so I get that this might be something that has just been patched out, and if soo I just want someone to clarify.

When I played 2 or so years ago, I remember there being monsters from opposing force in the original Half Life maps, like the Gonome for example.

Is this something that they've patched out? If soo, is there any way to play an older version of sven coop that has that included in those maps?

Thanks, and keep on rockin in the free world!

It was removed for 5.0. The only way to play those maps is to find and download version 4.8.

Ahh bummer :( thanks for the quick answer though :D

But I liked having OpFor enemies in the original HL. :(

Me too, it added something extra to the game.
Although they should fit lorewise, so no Race-X. But having some male black ops, some Gonomes and such wouldn't hurt anyone.

Yeah, I miss the shock trooper ambushing me when I go to turn on the air flow/fan to kill the tenticle monster...and the gonome in the office complex. I'm forever on edge in those moments now.

Any plans to re-add the 4.8 campaign as an option like "Enhanced Mode" or something?

Yeah I found the extra Monsters being removed kinda lame. Add an option to re-add them or re-add it once workshop comes.... Please!

It made the co-op more fun. :D

Does anyone remember the Black Gonome? That was awesome. Why would you remove that?

+1

The svencoop HL campaign was a piece of art. Now its just a playground for speedrunners due to the lack of enemys.

The monsters were never 'removed', they were just never re-added when Soctom and I rebuilt and merged the map source files.

We could probably add some sort of 'enhanced' mode, as James suggested above.

Yes please!!

[Slaya]

Yes please indeed.

As much of a pain as these monsters were back in 4.8... I have to say I still want them back.
Being an old HL1 veteran that invested countless hours playing the HL1 maps with Counter-Life, the Opposing force monsters did throw a nice curve ball.

Unless I missed something.... Was 'enhanced mode' ever added?

I know this was from 2016. Just asking for an update. ;)
