Post news Report RSS Now Available On Steam [FREE]

Well survivors, it's been 2 years in the making but we're finally on Steam. Getting here wasn't by any means easy but we wouldn't have been able to do it if it wasn't for your support over the years.

Posted by on

"Two years. That’s how long it has been since our team’s first release of No More Room in Hell, to the day. It was October 31, 2011 and we were nervous, frightened, anxious, terrified and more excited than we ever thought possible. At least, that was until today. It has been a very long and strange path from this game’s humble beginnings as a pre-emptive mod for Half-Life 2 started in 2003 by a doe-eyed optimistic young go-getter named Coleman Sweeney, to my inheritance of the No More Room in Hell name, all the way through until today: our breakthrough release on Valve’s Steam platform.

Today we are bringing to the world the best version of No More Room in Hell to date with more content than ever before. Although we believed that the anticipation and excitement we experienced during the original release phase of No More Room in Hell could never be surpassed, this new cornerstone in the games development has proven that thought very wrong. To be delivering a game made solely from passion, fandom and friendship on a premiere platform like Steam to thousands of players is both mind-blowing, and humbling.

Our game is, as always, 100% completely free. All we want is to deliver a fun experience that we hope all of our fans new and old enjoy together.

Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Matt ‘Maxx’ Kazan and as project manager it is my pleasure to present No More Room in Hell 1.07, now available on Steam."





These first few weeks are important in helping us finding major bugs. You can help us make a better game by sending us videos or reports of bugs to support@nmrih.com

Is this an easy standalone install or is this a lazy "required files" crap install? If I have to use steam I won't bother.

*Facepalm* This is the STEAM release which brings a huge changelog, not that it matters since sourcemods require STEAM and another source game *mainly HL2* in order to work anyway, VALVe games/content have all used steam since its inception so I fail to understand the problem with using it, clearly your to "lazy" to install the proper files needed to play this

Go choke on your memes you **** fart. Maybe there is a more logical reason I don't want steam on my computer that I am not saying due to idiots like yourself but hey, you will never know so why don't you go stuff your mom's pussy full of peanut butter and horsey ride her fat *** straight into a bear cave. Have a nice day :)

Aww, I think it's mad. It's a Source game, Source is owned by Valve, and Steam is Valve's digital distribution service. You want to play? You gotta install Steam.
Get over it and calm the **** down. Go watch eyebleach or sumthin.

The old version was better... good luck getting into a server now, apparently they're all full or I just can't join. Says like 5-7 out of 8 slots filled, I refresh the page, still says it. Then it just says it is filled. Need more servers

Apparently Realism mode/hardcore survival don't work ATM (and they'll be made obsolete in the near future with stuff like difficulty levels and other options come into play).

I haven't found out when they are going to implement proper difficulty levels, like instead of having the superfluous realism mode that nobody uses implement a kind of system that asks what each option you want... like one shot headshots/disable hud/Make all zombies Runners/disable Runners/respawning zombies/disable nation guard/zombiecount scaling depending on playercount ect

Not to mention there was no tags on servers or any information as to what settings servers are using so it was impossible to tell whether realism mode was activated or not unless played for a bit to see whether the low caliber pistol killed with a headshot.

Once they implement proper difficulty settings, they will probably give us server side information before joining.
Lacking difficulty options, along with shoddy hit detection is why I stopped playing the mod.
