Get a Life : Patch v1.1
Apr 27, 2008 Patch 4 commentsSome people complains about the difficulty of the mod and some bugs. Even if the beta-tests helps to reduce the number of bugs, when a mod is released...
Get a Life
Half-Life 2 mod | Released Apr 25, 2008
SCENARIO
In "Get a Life" you embody Alexander Zemlinsky, a subway technician suffering from leukaemia.
Alex is not, unlike the protagonists in most games, an invincible super-soldier. But you wouldn't call him normal either, because there is something in his past that connects him with the events that are about to happen in the course of the story (we want to keep the suspense, so nothing more on that...). "Get a Life" will feature different environment settings presented in more than 24 maps, all of them connected to the scenario of the mod. GaL will offer about 11 hours of pure gameplay pleasure.
FEATURES
- GaL will run on the latest version of the Source Engine, so that means you'll see HDR and the enhanced shadow system (as seen in HL2: Episode 1) in "Get a Life" as well
- To give the player the best gaming experience possible, GaL will offer a custom HUD, an innovative healing system with several damage zones, drugs that will trigger a "bullet-time" effect, upgradeable weapons and enhanced enemy AI
- About 11 hours of gameplay
- 24 maps with varied environments
- 61 characters
- 13 weapons
For more information visit the official "Get a Life" website and the french/english forums.

We set up a Goodies section on the website (Media > Goodies). It's only accessible to those who end the mod! The password is provided at the end of the generic and will allow you to access to several bonus (unfinished maps/weapons, artworks, tricks, easter eggs, succinct storyline, our best bugs, etc.).
Besides the languages we talked about last friday, Finnish and Swedish subtitles will also be available !
To hold on these 2 days, here are some gameplay sequences, captured during the beta tests :
In addition we are looking for hosts for the binaries of the mod (about 700 MB).

looks neat downloading
hey buddy dont stop criticism, it makes the hairs grow on them chest, eh?
The storyline is hard to understand. The level transitions are stilted and the extra stuff they include in the HUD is very confusing and vexing. The models are different and there is a lack of interest when you keep running into the same guys over and over and over...
The level designs are great and awesome.
5/10
I so much don't get the storyline.. The voice actors are so bad I can't hear what they said, and I don't feel very compelled to keep playing, since there is so little reason to my actions in the game, besides not trying to get killed...
@sutsko: If you are having trouble understanding what the people are saying, try turning on subtitles. That should help.
Well, I actually thing they where turned on. But all the game story is so insanely random.
Meeting some nerd guy at a Cave-church in the middle of the game? A total turn off..
If there whereALOT more consitancy in the storyline that the game opens with (your sister and somesort of test result) I might wanted to keep playing but...
No.. In my eyes this mod failed, although it has a awesome hud and gameplay mechaniks... Story is VERY important in singleplayer games..
It's very good mod. I played penumbra at the same time and both suprised me very nice.
Wait, sorry for double post, strike "makes it more realistic".... its a zombie mod. Cant be realistic as ever. :)
Truly one of the best. In my opinion, I love mods that have about 11 hours of game play. The best horror-iffic mod out there. Love the blood loss system, really made me want to dance around in fire fights, which makes the game harder. And makes it more realistic too. You all know the mod smod-tactical, it says its realistic, i dont think so. If you have 5 health, you got shot everywhere. You should of bled to death. Thats one of the things this mod excells at. I personally like the flashlight system you guys put in,wanted to see that in a mod for a while. The slow-motion was fantastic,truly amazing mod. Storyline was suspencing,great,great work.
10/10
This is a great mod. The flashlight bit was annoying, but compared to Doom3, this is a masterpiece.
One question though: How do you get the hidden scene in the first map to work? The 'Goodies' section is in French, and I'm woefully bad at French...
