The Wastes is a post-apocalyptic multiplayer total conversion for Half-Life. You play as one of the few remnants of humanity, battling it out for survival in harsh and unforgiving environments, ranging from midwest deserts to cold dead cities.
(Although the mod died in 2006 it still has some popularity. Check the comments to see who might be up for a game!)

A Windows client/server, a Linux server, and a content patch are all available. A teaser trailer for The Wastes: Source, which was never released, has also been uploaded:

To tell you the truth, I don't really miss it. I don't think we ever really had it. Civilization I mean. Sure life can be hard today: nothing you plant...
Various model, animation and sound tweaks for characters and weapons.
The Wastes was a multiplayer post-apocalyptic total conversion for Half-Life. This is the last known release of its Linux DS.
Where can I get bots?
The finest deathmatch I've ever played. Fantastic audio in particular made it the most tense experience I've had hunting and being hunted by other players, in ruined cities where every step would echo down forgotten alleys and toxic sewers. Combined with a vastly superior bullet penetration system to mods like Counter Strike, you could often take down an enemy by listening to him moving in the room above you, and unload a few magnum rounds through the floorboards from below, to a gratifying splatter of blood raining down through the ceiling.
If anyone would like to try to play this again, perhaps using an old HL install and Hamachi, do contact me.
I remember playing this mod back in the day. There was one map that was an exact replica of Shady Sands from Fallout1.
If it wasn't multiplayer, I would play it. But sadly I'm just not into that kind of thing *sigh*
Chemical Existence has a similar theme, but its singleplayer

Same here :'(
Me too..
Not sure if an original member of the team uploaded this or not, but a while back, when The Wastes forums were still active, I made a 'fix' for the menus for use with Steam and shared it with everyone. I've been trying to find the damn files, and by chance if someone has them, please feel free to upload and share them.
Used to play this, was really good. Wish it was still alive.
