Fantastic concept. The gameplay is very dynamic. Keep it up...

Blue_Dust is right to some extend about the ironsights, completely unnesassary. 7 years of development should have brought forward a better mod than this one. The pacing was great, but they erased a few parts of the original game which isn't good.
Still it's a good mod.

This is it? This thing took 5 years to make? You are trying to tell me that this thing took 5 YEARS to make? Please, tell me this is some kind of a joke.
Where should I begin?
Nearly two years before the release I saw the trailer and I made a comment that the crowbar animation looked too stiff, as well as the Glock animation. After realizing that the mod was, until that point, in development for at least 3 years, I had huge doubts that this mod, even when released, was going to be anything exceptional and of incredible quality.
The animations of the Glock and the crowbar are not anywhere near high quality.
Not to mention that they didn't even had the courtesy to make a new model for the shotgun except of just retexturing the old model(At least the model of the shotgun looks similar to that of Half-life 2)
The biggest disappointment is that they haven't finished the Xen levels, which was the thing almost every fan of this mod wanted to see the most.
Final thoughts: The level design is great and so are the models for the enemies. The gameplay is great.

Still it's a huge disappointment. Anyone who doesn't suffer from nostalgia will see this.

Final score: 5.5/10

If the Xen levels are great the mod could reach 7-8/10
