Minerva - Metastasis 1

Postby wiggle987 on Sat Sep 03, 2005 5:30 pm

If you didn't know already, the first chapter of the Minerva single player campaign has been released today as a short, but sweet (and very well made) taster of what's to come from Adam Foster

"Like a knot twisted into the skein of physical existence, the first chapter of my forthcoming, inevitable struggles finally becomes visible. Logic states that it is impossible for you to change your future, but my long-departed, ever-present demons have already, subtly shown it is possible for me to change my past"

You can download this very sexy mod from here

I played this last night, and I higly reccomend it. It is as good, if not better than all of Half Life 2. This is a MUST PLAY! :D

Yeah, this mod was great, even though the episode wasn't that long. I loved how it didn't seem linear, but you still got to where you wanted to go (unlike hl2, which felt uncomfortably linear). Great level design, and the custom music was freakin cool 8)

So much action with 1 load and little if any lag - Rather impressive.

I really enjoyed this. :) Really nice level design... but those messages, heh, I rarely got a chance to read all of them as I was usually too busy having my ass shot off.

I look forward to the next!

That was great! :smt023

I didn't know you could have so much in one map (I think I'm gonna be vmexing this one just to see)

It reminded me of the coast, nova prospeckt, and the citadel all rolled into one.

Why? The original VMF is right in the mod directory under resources.

For some reason, this REALLY reminded me of the old goldeneye game, just the objective base thing. Goldeneye was a great game, and shit sort of seems like its child.

Anyway, great mod, great story too.

Mapping 10/10
Sound 10/10
Gameplay 8/10
Setting 7.5/10
Hl2 feel 7/10
Feel 10/10

Great single player mod. The mapping is great it was really great looking and how did you get so much in 1 map damn GJ, Also Sound is great it was creepy and techno like the game felt. Gameplay is great only missed some enemy's at some point like zombie in that place where you go down with the lift. The setting is okee, but i don't really like islands. Hl2 maybe you did not tried to make the dude Gordon but i did not always got the feeling i was playig as Gordon. The Feeling overall is great this due the great mapping textures sound and the creepy feeling.

Final grade 9 out of 10

Great episode like to see more of it.

I just played it and all I can say is OMGWOW, even though the messages didn't actually appear (I just heard the sound). I can't wait for the next one. This bit did get a little annoying though:
