Классный мод, прошел с огромным удовольствием. Особенно понравился подбор музыки - может она и взята из стандартных треков игры, но вписана в ситуации идеально!

Finally got to play this after seeing the progress over 4 years ago! Awesome map, love the design and how much was crammed into a small space. Writing was also on-point and that Russel impression was spot-on.

Really fun and offered a good but also fair challenge. I'm amazed at how much was packed into just one map. Great work!

All-round awesome map! Could've totally fit in the campaign. The ending gave me a good chuckle. Thank you.

Why the need to make the easiest difficulty difficult ?

Genial !!!!!!!

Loved every second of it! Perfect!

Awesome. Here is my full gameplay : https://youtu.be/pW4bUS4bC1c?si=NmbZIivGzBylJhnT

Realy nice map !

Excellent Work!

Pretty alright, i liked that you filled that much content in one map, impressive, wish there was more checkpoints especially in the beginning, last gunfight was decent but really shows Alyx needs a range weapon, wish Valve put one in the game would make these sequences 10 times better imo

Fun campaign with an surprise twist at the end; it ought to be considered canon.

Nice mod, love train and railway mechanics! There is funny surprise what is in yellow wagon.

super!

SMG go BRRRRRR

Beautiful looking map with a couple of very good ideas. The storyline is light and funny which usually works better for these types of maps. Very combat heavy. That's alright except i feel like the map is sometimes giving the player too much ammo, i had 360 bullets in the Combine SMG which meant i didn't have to think about tactics and good accuracy. That is my only real gripe with the map. Overall a very nice experience! I recommend it!

Excellent story and map, i legit forgot this was community content at some parts! one thing to add, how much ammo do you want us to have? the SMG ammo was a bit intense haha

Great map really enjoyed it keep up the good work

Loved this map. The attention to detail and the rewards for observing the environment. Will definitely play it again. Thank you for the hard work.

Excellent and balanced, wow! Many thanks!

Very cool map
Played it again and it is still one of my favorites - awesome work here!

Really enjoyed the map design, well done. Good resin placement, lots of maps have me disappointed with all the nothing in the nooks and crannies but this one really rewarded taking in the scenery. Ammo is maybe a bit over the top, ended with enough spare to nearly do the map over again. Something about the level had the vram on my 2080 super nearly maxed out the whole time, had serious stuttering in some sections.

this was awesome. Valve Level map, I had lots of fun. The final battle was quiet tough, had to restart 3 times. Thanks fo sharing. The only thing that bothered me was some stutters due to fps dips, but I play almost maxed out, should have turned down setting a bit.

Very good map lad, Joey did a great job imitating Russel's voice, and most of Alyx's lines fit in pretty well.

This is great, first mod I have played that is up to the level of the vanilla Valve made maps! Really great job, and I hope you'll do another. Thanks for all the work, the result is worth it.

Thank you so much for all you did to put this one together. I loved, loved, loved it! Great ending.

been playing through a bunch of mods after beating the main game, this has definitely been the best one so far

howww is it possible to design a map this slick

really great map, and I have played a lot of maps. favorited for your next map!

Fantastic! Great hour of real cool gaming, thank you !

I DID ALL THAT FOR VODKA?

merci pour le travail , je me suis régalé

really fun short map. i would love to see more of this style

No bugs for me, great mod one of my favs

I have a Ryzen5 3600 and a 2070 Super and was able to play and enjoy it on a Valve Index. Yeah it sometimes dips to 45 FPS from the 90 I have it set as, but it's enjoyably playable for me. Most of the issue occur in the outdoor sections.

@jaxum: Recommend RTX 3090 with 5950X CPU

agree with @gormless uguu, I couldn't play the second half of the level because my frames dipped REALLY hard

Level needs some serious optimization. It's the only level I've played from workshop, and from the official maps, that makes my game go under 40fps and have terrible lag spikes constantly while moving from place to place. The lag begins right after I climb the stairs in the beginning.

Cracking mini-campaign, really well made

Agreed. When I had first tried this map on Merciless I didn't have the experience with the mod to understand and respect the positioning importance in open battles. Thanks for letting me know it could be done so that I'd try again. It was an awesome experience.

@skummeh merciless combine I've noticed really emphasizes the need for proper positioning when fighting the soldiers and maps with little/far apart cover can be quite brutal.

@ghostboy1225 Clearly my prior technique was poor, and after getting more and more familiar with Merciless as of late, this map actually wasn't nearly as hard as I was expecting. Although I was peeking like you said, my positioning was not ideal during the first encounter, I got frustrated, and gave up prematurely. It ended up being both very challenging and rewarding to complete. The finale part I escaped by the skin of my teeth! So glad I tried it again. Laughingly I missed the shotgun this time but I never really needed it.

@marnamai Here's my Merciless playthru if you are interested. Thanks again for creating this amazing map! https://youtu.be/rJmxzFbG3i4

This guy has been making top tier Half Life 2 levels for a good while now. It is a very good contained level that loops around masterfully, making good use of the same areas but with a slight twist.Also you can always see from almost every spot another area that you will go to. It really makes the level a more believable place. Even though it impacts fps occasionally, I think it was a good idea in the end. Makes the place more memorable.
There's plenty of supplies to be found if you search around. The designer makes sure that before every major fight you have enough health and ammo so that it's playable on hard difficulty. The voice acting is very good too. I honestly had trouble believing those weren't Russel voice lines from the campaign.
The only minor complaint that I have about is that I wish that we had the choice to not equip the reflex sight on the pistol at the start. I'm not the biggest fan of that upgrade.

oh so glad its not just me that had fps issues. wasn't too bad, but it got a little....warpy on airlink. fantastic level though

@marnamai malheureusement c'est le seul mod où ça plante comme ça (beaucoup de saccades) et comme expliqué la pièce avant de descendre au sous-sol bug complètement je ne vois pas les murs ni les personnages... Vraiment dommage car j'aime beaucoup cette map
