Way too much motionblur in that trailer, hate the stuff.

I hate you, and your insanely fast internet. :3eyes:
Why? Well.... I was just so happy with my recent connection upgrade where I now have a 30/5mbit connection. Then you come along and :banana:
LoL. I hope Google brings their giga-band internet to SoCal.

Man they really went the whole way.
I mean the mod is filled with ambient sounds, more than the original if i remember correctly.
And the crossbow! Anyone noticed that on the scope you actually see what is infront of it instead of just a reflection from an environment map?

Finally a game that actually made me sit down and play on my computer. It's been ages!
... and it's effing great. So many memories.

So far so good, the flares at the start are a bit off, why would a facility that is located deep underground have flares, I dunno but then I suppose they are just as logical as a crow bar. Speaking of which the crow bar just doesn't feel right, it's like you barely swing it, really kinda weird.
The NPCs timing is a bit off, by that I mean you walk past a person and your half way down the corridor before they talk to you, you walk in to a room, look at the NPC then turn round and walk away and then they start talking and finally I some how managed to get stuck in a door.
It's the one just after the explosion, it opens a little way then you see an on fire half infected body crawling towards you. I stepped back in to the door way and the door closed pinning me in place and refused to open again.
So minor glitches, nothing game breaking by any means, my memory of HL is hazy but I am certain they have changed and tweaked some of the level design.

Yeap, in fact it is worth exploring because they have changed some stuff so even if you know the layout by heart, you'll find it rewarding in a sense.
I feel as if this one is a tiny bit harder and i liked it.
There is even an achievement if you find a different route for a particular level.

If you open Steam go to tools, you can download the 2007 Source SDK, that is all you need.
Just FYI, the crowbar is not where it was originally in the first game. I ran around and around looking for it in the original location.
I am currently at the beginning of the blast pit level.
Rich_Guy
Yeah the crowbars further back now, i actually went back thinking id missed it with it not being where it was originally 😀

harharhar. Just like in the old times 🤓
