Well yeah if you rush it, but yeah it was made for a short competition in less than 50 hours, so its pretty short.

Hmm, dont think I ever heard of anyone having this issue, try quicksaving and reloading save, and if that doesnt work I guess just restart and try again.

Short but beautiful and dynamic map. It was fun!

decent map, the ai has a hard time on the cliff faces running by gordon and alyx to seek cover on the top. and the heli is more tanky than any gunship.
Ethosaur  [author] Feb 22 @ 7:57pm 
I will try when I have time to do fix update, thanks for playing

play this with that titanic replacement mod for the borealis and DUDE it is so much funnier for some reason

Yeah Ive been a bit wrong in my last comment. Let me explain myself. I totaly forget this map was created for a contest so there are some negative and positive sides. Positive: the map actually looks beautiful. Alyx have some replics. Combine soldiers have their new winter skin. Negative: the combine fields (specifically one in a cave) is a solid object even for a bullets, so you cant shoot them and they make some interesting interaction with Alyx. The meshes of the sidewalk is... well... Half-Life 1 level of detail. The choper sequence is bad and good at the same time. I didnt liked the idea of shooting the copter with rpg so it drops bombs. While it drops bomb after the impact the heli just go south in all the ways possible so you cant reach it with the bomb. The sequence of it doing bayblade is funny tho, I liked it. And the last thing I really dissatisfied is the Borealis which apears as "func_tracktrain" with not so many paths just looks really funky.

Great Map
Ethosaur  [author] Feb 3 @ 10:39am 
Well, what can you do when you get 50 hours in a jam to make it.
BuoYancY_dabl Feb 3 @ 10:21am 
This is the worst ep3 map Ive seen yet ngl
Jeanmouloude Jan 27 @ 7:59am 
yea most people forget that detail, and the chopper was too far and over a canyon to grab the bombs
Ethosaur  [author] Jan 27 @ 7:55am 
I guess no one here has ever played Half-Life 2 EP2... No one ever uses the mines it drops to kill it, which only takes like 3-4 hits, the rpg only makes it drop the mines, but barely does any damage

I didnt have any time left when making the map to change it but if I ever go back to update this map I will probably change it to be a gunship
Jeanmouloude Jan 27 @ 7:41am 
Im trying to stream every single half life 2 maps
and this map gets a
why are choppers so god damn HARD to kill ? / 10

Adorable little trek with a very beefy, or cheesy, chopper fight depending on how you decide to time your rocket volleys and where you fight.
Ethosaur  [author] Jan 5 @ 5:46pm 
Maybe I will update one day when I have time
Ethosaur  [author] Jan 5 @ 5:46pm 
It was made for a competition in under 50 hours, sorry.
Crow Fross Jan 5 @ 5:42pm 
Maybe don't give the player the RPG in the first place...?
Ethosaur  [author] Jan 5 @ 5:41pm 
If you only use the RPG to kill it then yeah, you need to use the mines it drops after you damage it with RPG, but I guess it its not very well telegraphed as most just try to use RPG only
Crow Fross Jan 5 @ 5:37pm 
The chopper has an INSANE amount of health.
Jozaru Dec 31, 2024 @ 2:14pm 
It's alright! I did read about the competition, that's why I thought it was impressive, besides, the map was fun to play!
Ethosaur  [author] Dec 31, 2024 @ 2:03pm 
But maybe I will return and make an extended version some day when I have more time, thanks for playing either way!
Ethosaur  [author] Dec 31, 2024 @ 2:02pm 
Yeah I know.. I made this for a competition in under 50 hours so there was no time to really detail, otherwise I would have gone crazy.
Jozaru Dec 31, 2024 @ 1:53pm 
Amazing short map! Kinda wish some visual details were better
Nomad Dec 26, 2024 @ 12:52am 
Я бы добавил немного больше стычек с комбайнами , добавил ещё пару реплик Аликс, сделал меньше хп у вертушки но добавил бы десант, который высаживался бы когда у вертолета остаётся 50% хп
Nomad Dec 26, 2024 @ 12:47am 
Вообще эта карта как и карта смог сити требуют допилв конечно, если их улучшить ещё немного мне кажется они будут намного лучше и завершеннее. Потенциал очень хороший. Атмосфера этих двух карт очень зашла
Nomad Dec 26, 2024 @ 12:42am 
Is there any way to optimize the snow? When there is a snowstorm, fps drops to 80-90, and without it 250-300
Ethosaur  [author] Dec 18, 2024 @ 5:48pm 
Guh!!
Snow_brλwl Dec 18, 2024 @ 5:27pm

Click subscribe, open half life 2, click "extras" in main menu, then click "workshop" then in workshop list, double click the map icon

How do you play the thing?

Femed Dec 8, 2024 @ 4:57pm 
well, alyx is with us and she spoke, so it was nice.
crack enthusiast Dec 6, 2024 @ 9:32pm 
Nice little map
Ethosaur  [author] Dec 3, 2024 @ 2:39pm 
You need to use the mines it drops to kill it, which only takes like 4-5

The rockets are used only to make it shoot out mines if its hit, using only rocket launcher to kill it will take AGES.
