Half-Life: Opposing Force is an expansion pack for Valve Software's science fiction first-person shooter video game Half-Life. The game was developed by Gearbox Software and published by Sierra Entertainment on November 1, 1999. Opposing Force is the first expansion for Half-Life and was first announced in April 1999. Randy Pitchford, the lead designer on the game, later noted that he believed Gearbox was selected to develop Opposing Force because Valve wanted to concentrate on their future projects. Over the course of development, Gearbox brought in a variety of outside talent from other areas of the video games industry to help bolster various aspects of design. Opposing Force returns to the same setting as Half-Life, but instead portrays the events from the perspective of a U.S. Marine, one of the enemy characters in the original game. The player character, Adrian Shephard.
Next batch of additions to Half-Life Beyond is here!
As this year draws to a close we wanted to take a moment to talk about more of the progress so far so let's take a look at some of it below!
We've expanded the graphical settings menu with more options, such as resolution scale and the option to turn off motion blur. FOV slider has been moved to the gameplay options tab since it is more related to the player's view. The game will now also auto adjust the settings to best suit your current hardware upon launching it for the first time!
We implemented Logo Sprays with the addition of being able to change their color to any color you want rather than just having preset color options, and added a new type of animated sprays: 2 animated sprays are currently available and can be obtained by completing challenges tied to them in the Extras menu! Skin preview recieved a minor visual update aswell.
Various details have also been added or tweaked further, like Suit Modification Station's "flames" effect, and made parts of weapons emit light where it makes sense.
Also added a notification to the right side of your screen whenever you complete a challenge, followed by a sound effect that temporarily reduces the volume of the other sound effects
And plenty of QoL improvements like faster to use Suit Mod Stations, oversights fixed and more! and a little Holiday themed extra that will last up until next year. Happy Holidays!

I've gotten tired of not being able to reliably find games for old Gold Source (GoldSrc, HL1, Half Life 1) mods or Source (Half Life 2, HL2) mods, so I made a discord about just that. I am also trying to make this place an informational hub. I'm trying to centralize and unite the multiplayer mod communities for all of the various multiplayer mods out there. We play a mod of the week every Friday/Saturday.
Check us out.
