Really fun map! The beginning feels very dystopian and really leaves you feeling defenseless. The amount of crates is kind of absurd however, they are necessary for combat but there needs to be an alternative to finding ammo and syringes.

Fancy open flowing level with absolute dumpster fire combat. Repeatedly thrown into open environments with combine all over and just expected to figure it out.

No healing; probably not a single healing station; just enough stims to keep you at one hitpoint the entire run. I was repeatedly stuck at entryways with no health and forced to no-hit every encounter.

Entirely too many enemies for weapons starting at zero upgrades.

Multiple areas with only short cover available in completely exposed sightlines. I'm standing on hardwood floors here, I'm not getting kneepads for this.

Most impressive! :steamthumbsup:

PRO:
The open-world feel is well portrayed.
The enemy attacks feel reasonable as the player progresses.
Hard Difficulty is very fun (for me, a decent player).

CON:
The soundtrack is nice, however it feels a bit bare-bones right now.
There are occasions where a new combat-scene can cause some hiccups.
Probably no matter how long and how many maps you strung along, I'd probably say it was too short. So, it's too short.

SUGGEST:
I think you could design a pit where the combine is holding a bunch of monsters for their cruel-minded pleasure, and the player's platform breaks and ends up in there!

For the record, I use D3D because a lot of custom maps have issues with Vulkan. It was a suggestion that I haven't tested myself, but certainly worth a try.

based on what @Skummeh suggested : switching D3D to Vulkan should help

Hey guys, I have the same game crashing issue as @Sgt_Carbonero and @WoGe have you made any progress with it?

Loved it! The music sounds great, and the concrete landscape creates a stylish, dystopian-type feel for the environment. The combat is steady and challenging as well. Great map

@Sgt_Carbonero Launch the game and then:

Options, performance, gear icon in the bottom left, switch to directx or vulkan at the bottom

@WoGe cant find the d3d/vulkan switch-help?

ahh ok. thanks, I might try it again. Also, personally, I love the aethetic, but usually, in alyx, smaller maps with more detail is the way to go I believe. But yea, your mod is one of the one's that has that awesome dream-like feel in VR, which I love. also to say something outside of the combat haha.
