Holy shit stop talking about this shit game. It isn't aged well at all. Just player it last week and couldn't finish it.
Joseph Cox
No its a good game.
Dominic Gray
Please elaborate as to why it didn't age well, otherwise you're just a moron.
Tyler Walker
Nostalgia kid.
The level design is not good on today standards. The shooting doesn't compare with today shooters. The audio mixing is not good at all, i couldn't listen to what people where saying because of this making the story of the game impossible to understand.
I just didn't find it fun to play.
Charles Roberts
No...
THIS IS
Luis Butler
nice opinions you got there kiddo. the game is still very playable.

As for half life? No. It's pretty much aged like milk. The only thing good about this series was the mods.
Bentley Hill
My favourite Half-Life game to be honest.
Interesting different perspective of the original story with a bunch of new weapons + enemies. I also really enjoyed the boot camp for the tutorial.
Pls bring Adrian back.

I just got banned on /biz/ for accidentally making a thread about this great game. Just finished it last night. Better than the first in many ways

It is very good being blind from nostalgia isn't it? I wish i was like that as well.
Easton Ward
I seriously just finished the game and thoroughly enjoyed it. AI is competent, gunplay is solid. The only thing that took away from the experience for me was getting stuck in the wall twice during a rope segment. The game honestly holds up spectacularly well check your taste. late 90s game aesthetic is comfy af
James Hughes
Oh and I'm playing Prey at the same time and honestly prefer this to a recent "modern" shooter. It's all taste bud

No because the dumbfuck ai keeps getting stuck.

Desert Eagle is always gun kino in games.

>nostalgia
yeah I'm nostalgic for a game I played for the first time 2 years ago.

Okay, i'll bite. What modern games do you think have better level design and more satisfying shooting mechanics than Half-life?

I could see somebody disliking the level design if they don't like first person platforming, but otherwise it's really good (amazing if you do like first person platforming).
I agree that the shooting sucks because of RNG bullet spray accuracy instead of CoD's "almost no recoil" or CS's "lots of recoil but you can control it with practice." I believe they did that on purpose to keep the marines alive longer when under the player's crosshairs, so that they may do more cool AI shit. The AI is interesting enough to justify it imo, not saying it hasn't been outdone but it is unique.
I thought the audio mixing was really cool, especially the way sounds echoed in metal tunnels, and the sounds of being hurt or your suit responding to you.

It's one of the finest shooters ever made, games don't age, you couldn't finish it because you're clearly retarded.

Recently finished HL1 for the umpteenth time. Still a brilliant game. Only played through HL2 once, wasn't nearly as good as 1.

You didn't age well despite being born in 2009. Your points are bad. Wolfenstein 3D has obsolete level design, Half life has great levels with properly placed health and ammo. Modern shooter you think are superior have uninspired corridor design and boring weapons. Go back to playing battlefield or homefront

I'll be honest, the game should have had the Long-Jump Pack since the first quarter of the game, it's hella fun.
I haven't played the expansions, does it get more use in those?
Jack Ross
It's not canon
It's not even fucking licensed
Matthew Davis
>I agree that the shooting sucks because of RNG bullet spray accuracy
What in the actual fuck are you talking about? The only weapons in the game with high spread are the glock's alternate fire and the mp5 and only a complete brainlet would use either of those outside of close range. Every other weapon shoots exactly where you aim it.
But the fact that you're using Call Of Duty and Counter-Strike as a baseline for good shooting & satisfying shooting mechanics tells me that you've either never played a good fps in your life or you're underage.
Juan Ross
Op4 was great , SP was solid and MP was top shelf with the w i d e weapon selection and great maps
good times were had.
Joseph Moore
Does the music play properly on the steam versions yet?
Chase Collins
If you're talking about how the game used to reuse half-life's soundtrack instead of its own, then yeah it was fixed a while ago.
John Williams

Juan Walker
So both games play their correct soundtracks ? Any chance they keep playing after a loading screen? Or is that too much to ask of valve?
Nathaniel Smith
>it isn't aged well at all
you haven't aged at all
Easton Rogers
Yeah both of them use the proper tracks (Opposing Force was pretty quiet for me the last time I played it though, even after maxing the audio volume.)
Not sure if they continue playing after loading but i'm 90% the answer is no unfortunately.
Parker Parker
Half-life 1 = film
Opposing Force = movie
Half-life 2 and episodes = flicks
Blue Shift = Kino
Isaiah Garcia
I legitimately like it more than the base game, it's got a wider variety of enemies and guns packed into a smaller package. It's an expansion pack, and they were smart enough to design the encounters as such - the equivalent of the tentacle pit boss takes place within several adjacent rooms and only takes like 7 minutes, as opposed to 30. It was fun getting to fight with both soldiers and security guards, and it showed that not all the HECU were cartoon bad guys holding competitions over who killed the most scientists.
Kayden Fisher
actually accurate
Dominic Barnes
>Blue Shift
I'm pretty sure I finished it but I have absolutely no recollection of the story other than that you play as Barney, I don't remember if it even added any new weapons or enemies.
Jacob Cruz

Connor Cook
I reinstalled HL 2 few days ago and man, those early levels aged like shit. Especially the canals. Also maybe its just me, but WTMB actually looks better than HL2.

People will be playing and talking about Half Life ten years from now.
No one will remember Soywatch five years from now.
