text is too big
Knups May 21 @ 2:39pm 
I was hesitant even trying this after reading all of the comment about the text but its literally one paragraph every 5 minutes. Are yalls brains cooked that much you cant be bothered to read a few sentences?

Very pretty but perhaps the worst mod I've played in my life.

Just completed it for the first time. Mindblowing. Valve quality campaign.

peak mod, it's not for everyone but if you can get over the text and puzzles being a bit difficult it really gets clear why this is such a classic

this map kinda suck for a first time playthrough but when its second absolute cinema

Really outstanding map design, story on the other hand... pulling the plug on combine literally is sort'a hilarious, but texting in fps, blocking like half of the screen? HL2 is not a visual novel, show not tell

you know, i've always wandered about who the heck we play as in this mod. we have the same arms as gordon freeman but we're implied to be a converted combine soldier??

This is impossible on Hard. I said screw it and turned on godmode.

Very good mod but some of the puzzles are a bit cryptic.

chat this was the FIRST mod on the hl2 workshop

idk if there's a specific mod that causes issues with this but for some reason it always crashes my game when I die and also when loading metastasis_3

I know I suck at games but I do not understand everyone saying this was easy, it was excruciating for me lol. I loved it tho it was a fun challenge
VirusKiller101 Feb 20 @ 1:56am

High production quality and a nice long campaign. But I got stuck on a few areas trying to figure out what to do next.

This was very challenging and fun!

I feel like people are making a big deal out of the gun play it just felt way too easy as there was no shortage of ammo and health especially in the later half and the only massive thing for the final fight is a gunship plus fast zombies are super easy if you have a shotgun which you do when ever you encoutner them for the first time.

Did it on my first try. I wouldn't exactly call it a very difficult campaign, even the ending is pretty simple. I wouldn't outright call it easy, but I was never offered a challenge too difficult. I think it's kinda overkill just how many health supplies there, I'm not sure if I ever went below 30. Only twice did I get stuck: the part where you're supposed to shoot a platform and the introduction to the valve puzzles. The latter due to it being a sudden introduction to an otherwise absent mechanic, the former because it's the only time I was asked to do something like that. Neither time did I spend longer than 5-10 minutes in the area.

This is a very well designed combat campaign. It's got very solid pacing between fast and slow moments - times where you're unstoppable and moments where you're helpless and just have to run.

This mod's awesome. High recommendation

I don't know what to think about this mod, because i feel it was good with some things but failed totally with other stuff, like I feel it was too hard, and I like to play challenging games, but this mod some parts I really felt too hard, almost I started to think it was unfair, other things I really disliked it was the really long text on the dialogues, I don't think it was bad script about the plot, cause the story manage itself really well in that field, but the problem it was the so long texts, others things called my atention it was the map itself, while more I kept moving forwards there were confusing puzzles and hints to keep moving on, and that's why I think was too bad cause that thing really relate to how the mod want to tell you something but at the same time confuse you because there are things doesn't explain well at all and how to do it, but besides that I think it is a 50/50 mod, it is good but not a masterpiece at all

Playing this makes me appreciate how hl2 is well designed because this campaign gets really annoying at the later half. The writing is also pretentious which just further annoyed the playthrough. I wanted to like it but there's so much negatives that makes this campaign fall flat on its face.

Великолепный мод

everything is great. then the finale comes. (insert the thousand yard stare meme)
Hiromi Dec 23, 2024 @ 11:51pm 
It was good, but damn the puzzle took me like 10-15 mins to solve it lol
ElizatronicWarfare Dec 22, 2024 @ 11:22pm 
This mod is gorgeous to look at, but atrocious to play. You are often asked to perform fiddly tasks or carefully examine the environment while endlessly-spawning waves of enemies rush you in close quarters - such as the infamous finale, where you have to try and fight a gunship while a conga line of fast zombies rushes you. At the suggestion of other HL2 fans who played this back in the day, I turned on God mode just to finish the mod.

The finale is a fucking pain.

无处不在。文学。残酷的。实验。

亚当·福斯特(Adam Foster)的《MINERVA》将带你前往一个由联合部队控制的偏远岛屿。这里一定发生了什么事。你的目标是找出真相并摧毁它。哦,是的,努力活下去。

这是著名的半条命2:第一章mod的2013年版,重新包装为新的半条命2车间。

Why didja replace the Rollermines in the first level with Hopper Mines?
Da_JAM_06 Dec 17, 2024 @ 2:47pm 
I didn't really like this mod, the level was cool to look at, and the battering ram was neat, but the character that sends messages to you was unlikable, the writing felt like it was made by a kid who thought he was so smart for using big words and writing in a "complex" way, the encounters are frustrating with enemies spawning from EVERY direction in big open areas, when you aren't given any long range guns and no way to feasibly fight back. I got lost many times trying to find my way to the objective, I only got to the point where you press the button and the guy basically says "F you, you thought that there would be a convenient self destruct button? my little lab rat, how naive of you, you know what that means? Deeper you go!" before I was done, I kept getting killed over and over again because of the spawns, and ai jank that's in this mod.

Floppa Gaming Dec 10, 2024 @ 8:31am 
not sure if it is a bug because I didnt get any weapons in Metatasis_3 Even I pick up the ammo boxes it still refuse to get the AR

No estuvo mal el mod (aunque tampoco lo conoci), pero no hay una guía en si donde ir, te perdes mucho. Dejo el video o guia -> https://youtu.be/OZBdyIRNwKA

The mod wasn’t bad (although I didn’t know it either), but there’s no clear guide on where to go, you get lost a lot. Here’s the video or guide -> https://youtu.be/OZBdyIRNwKA

If u don't mind, put my video on your post. Thank you for the mod!

why does this mod override my sounds and my skill.cfg?
AngryShark Dec 7, 2024 @ 11:11am 
I liked the first half of the mod, but once the thing blew up. Level desing went down. The puzzles had me wandering around the place. One time i solved a puzzle by giving up and randomly shooting everything. There were many moments where i wasnt sure what the game wanted me to do.
I didnt really like the combat that much, i found that the mod just resorted to throwing death stacks at you. Youll be figthing groups of up to 6 regularly (especialy fast and armored zombies). I really dont understand what do the weapons dissolving in the combine facility adds. It kinda makes it a hassle to refil your ammo after you get back your guns. It makes the backtracking needless.
Pelinal Whitestrake Dec 5, 2024 @ 1:01pm 
Pretty fuckin good! Story and Level design is genuinly peak. Only issue is some of the puzzles were asspulls imo and the final escape through the upper bunker is confusing.

Also for anyone; HIGHLY recommend playing it with the Combine Soldier Hands/Suit mod and a Combine HUD. Really adds to the feeling.
