A brilliant mod by Mr. Cockburn. It's like Doom 3, but with more action.

I'd love to go in detail but I don't wanna spoil it for anyone who hasn't played it yet. The mod features a different style of level design compared to Valve's, which isn't necessarily a bad thing since it's done right. There are some slight canon inconsistencies here and there but it's for some cool sequences so I don't really mind. The mod is quite dark (literally) which adds to the mood although it can be hard to see at times because HL1's flashlight sucks. Some sequences can also be very frustrating but it's nothing the average Half-Life player can't handle.

If I had to complain, it'd probably be that little scene right before the end that spells out the name of the place in big red letters. It's so comical and out of place that I burst out laughing even though it's supposed to be dramatic.

Amazing brushwork! Phenomenal lighting!

But please turn off the HD pack.

Yes, I'm using MetaMod. Does that affect anything?

Heya, I've tried modifying bot_skill from 0 to 4 and they still have instantaneous and completely accurate reactions. I tried setting it to bot_skill 5 but then they just walked in a straight line and stopped shooting.

Aww man, you should've called it City 17 in the vein of Black Mesa. I hope you guys can tough it out till it's done!

Stick a Metrocop head on it and voila, it's a Combine Guard.

Hey guys, for the Gas Mask Citizen's left arm, shouldn't the part where the red armband is be tighter than the rest of the arm? If you look at the Samuel model from the leak (which is a likely candidate to be a reskinned gasmask citizen model, due to the fact it has gasmask citizen textures that has a UV map that mostly fits), the part where the armband is on the left arm is notably squeezed than the same place on the right arm.
