Pick up the crowbar of research scientist Gordon Freeman, and find yourself on an alien-infested Earth being picked to the bone, its resources depleted, its populace dwindling. You must rescue the world from the wrong you unleashed back at Black Mesa.
The original Half-Life sent a shock through the game industry with its combination of pounding action and continuous, immersive storytelling. Valve's debut title won more than 50 Game of the Year awards, was named "Best Game Ever" by PC Gamer, and launched a franchise which has since sold over 11 million units worldwide. By taking the suspense, challenge and visceral charge of the original Half-Life and adding startling new realism and responsiveness, Half-Life 2 opens the door to a world where the player’s presence affects everything around him or her, from the physical environment to the behaviors and even the emotions of both friends and enemies.
Technical note: most mods “for Half-Life 2” are actually cross-compatible with all of Valve's Source engine games. Check a mod’s profile for details on whether a specific game is needed. Get the steampipe fixes here.
HL2R is now released on Moddb! This has honestly been a passion-project of mine for a while now. And I definitely wouldn't have gotten this far without the gracious help of the Sourcemodding community. Especially the awesome people in the Entropy Zero Discord. Who helped both when I was first starting out with learning Source, and playtesting the final versions of the mod before this Moddb release.
Improving HL2's gameplay into something that I enjoy just as much as HL1 has been a really interesting and fun experience, and I'm excited to see what people think of the finished mod!
Here's an FAQ to some questions some of you may have.
Is HL2R completely finished?
Most likely not, I still have some ideas as to features I might add in the future. And the mod will definitely get bug-fixes and patches in the future based on reports and feedback.
Is this compatible with MMOD?
Not currently. MMOD is closed-source, so that means that if a compatibility patch were to happen, it would have to come from the creator of MMOD. That being said, MMOD's assets like models and textures should still work via mounting.
How much does the mod change?
Generally this mod follows the rule of less is more, AKA Minimalism. The focus is mainly on improving/expanding what's already there while preserving the core experience. Huge graphics overhaul's, fundamental gameplay changes, or haphazard additions are not the focus of the mod.
Not saying that these things are inherently bad, they're just not what I'm going for with HL2R.
How hard is HL2R?
The mod is generally shooting for a difficulty level similar to HL1, but its hard difficulty is generally harder than HL1's hard. I personally find challenging gameplay fun, but for others it might be a bit much. Either way the mod still includes lower difficulty options like easy and normal, so it shouldn't be that much of a problem.
Can I base my mod off of HL2R?
Yes! I would be honored if someone found HL2R useful enough to warrant using it or its code for their own mod. It's totally open-source so you don't need any permission from me.
A huge thanks goes out again to people in the Sourcemodding community. And I want to also mention DK's GRAI Mod. Their mod was out way before I ever released mine, and was the main inspiration behind me making this in the first place. Please check it out when you have the chance.
Lastly, here's a short gameplay segment of water-hazard that I feel shows a good representation of the gameplay of HL2R:
