how do I play this mod? It's not a folder, so I don't know how.
You put it in your pov direction (which is in the Half-Life direction)
It's very rare that a mod is so good that I consider it a mission pack like Blue Shift or Opposing Force. I would love an .fgd for this mod some day, it'd be fun to make maps for it.
It says that agruntt.mdl was not found
This mod is timeless!
My review:
The first part of the mod in the Xen universe is a masterpiece regarding the staged war between Xen creatures and humans that entered their home world to do research. The middle part was still cool I guess but the farther you progress in this mod, the less frequent the really interesting parts of playing an Alien creature are being provided.
Fighting alongside other Xen creatures i.e., maybe having a little Vortigaunt squad to follow you or set some creatures in the laboratory free to support you on your quest. Maybe make Xen weaponry like these frog grenades more frequent or at least more efficient if that rare.
While the maps and theme of the game were still interesting in the late-game, it just wasn't as interesting to me to just be a Vortigaunt. It's just like with many HL2 Combine mods. Just playing a Combine and fighting Zombies/Antlions or Rebels isn't really interesting. For the love of god, give me a lot of different Combine toys to play around with. Let me fight alongside other Combine and go into a war against the Rebels. Let me place turrest and mines, drive APC's, have helicopter and Strider support, activate Combine energy barriers, etc. etc. - you name it.
That's my main criticism with this mod. Imo the Xen/Vortigaunt theme should've been established more defined. And (SPOILER) the last part of the game where even your Xen allies fight you should've been a f*cking lot shorter than it is. Everyone trying to kill me is the least interesting video game theme I can imagine.
Rating: 7/10
But to be fair:
Xen part = 9/10
Certain short parts of earth = 8/10
How is 9/10 and 8/10 = 7/10 overall? Shouldn't it be 8.5/10 then?
Well, the build up is great and all. But if the game tends to get boring midway and especially endgame I just can't rate it as overall good. Because Xen is fairly short in contrast to the whole mod and the good moments on earth are rather sporadic and even shorter. So that's why the 7/10.
this is probably one of the most well constructed half life 1 mods I have ever played, thats why I want a squeal!
can I ask a question how do u get the dual hive hands answer plz =p
