I think a really great example of pre-disaster levels is how HL Echoes does it. It establishes the layout and foreshadows the endgame areas. Bonus points if there is fun worldbuilding stuff and the places you visit remain relevant throughout the game.

Health games?

BADASS

In all honesty that whole onieros level felt like Xen from OG HL. Either way, great work here!

Undisputed GOAT. Reminds me of Entropy Zero 2 in terms of quality and originality. I wish the all of half life was remade in your "quiet apocalypse" aesthetic. Explosions rocking the building, far off sounds of gunfire, the Boomer shooter sound effects. The feeling that youre a small actor on a big stage. It's sex. It's all just sex. Keep going we are rooting for you! It's stuff like this that keeps the spirit of half life alive.

These are AI mockups. Been out of commission in terms of creativity due to grad school but still plan to work on things :)

Reminds me a lot of this scene from Clive Barker's Undying
Undying.fandom.com

Doesn't look too different. My biggest gripe with this room is it looked like it would never exist IRL. Make sure there's a loading bay or some logical aspect

This is like a dream mod come true. Please don't let it die!

lmfaooo you really are delusional bro. EZ 2 is as close to an official HL2 Opposing Focre-level expansion as we will ever get.

Hmmmm, what's the significance of the picture on this article?

I am beyond excited for this mod.

Yeah was gonna say I dont think the Army is associated with the HECU

there any chance that this game crosses over with any of the mainline Half Life entries like the original expansions did?

EXCUSE ME WHaaa

What's the timeframe? Does the Entropy 2 take place before or during Gordon's arrival to the future?

Will Decay be more of a cohesive story that plays continuously like the other entries in the Black Mesa era of games? I admit my biggest gripe with Decay on PS2 was the lack of a satisfying ending and disjointed feel of the progression.

I, too like that idea. Cross is more pragmatic while Green is jumpier so that may play into it.

Any reason why none of the voices will play? I'm gonna chalk it up to a weapon sound mod I have but I wanted to see if anyone else had it before uninstalling it.

I know that Black Mesa is a mod, but in its Xen chapters the Lambda team still sends Gordon supplies using his suit's tracker. So will the Lambda team be completely exterminated in this chapter or will they still be kicking?

This looks extremely promising and I really can't wait for it to release. I already have a feeling it's going to be worthy of standing next to the main expansions. Will there be original voice acting or will the beta/unused lines be mainly used like in HL: Echoes, or a mix of both?

Ooh, mystic.

Hexadecimal. Translates to "Totally not releasing first gameplay showcase video. Make sure you subscribe to Lambda Generation!"

Still very early in development. Not enough playable for that yet. This will likely be a long-term project, but I will do my best to keep things here updated and fresh as things advance.

This is an issue on my end, not the mod itself since I've played through it multiple times, but it seems the sand texture is missing for me. Is it an original Amnesia asset or something you added? Because it looks like I'm walking on thin air in any part that takes place outside. I loaded it up into the level editor and it's the same story.

Super thick air. Nicely detailed.

Placeholder. Still in pre-development stages until my career-related things are sorted out, which is in the next few weeks.

I am :)

I knew it had to be something like that. I hold Simulacrum to be of the highest standard for non-conversion custom stories. I have made a few levels using Simulacrum and Key to Freedom as a guide. Someday I hope to make a mod as good as yours. It's a personal goal.

Have you guys played Half Life: Echoes? If so what mental notes do you think you will take from it? Did you enjoy it? What did you like about it?

If not, you need to set aside a few hours to play it as it is the best lore-friendly Half Life mod that has ever been released imo.
