haha, agreed.
Gotta say it, this is the first HL2 SP map that I have felt equals Valve's efforts in every way. I guess it goes to show that the little things add up, 'cos they really make his map. For example, what other custom map uses the autosave option so perfectly (just like HL2 does)? The atmosphere, storytelling and execution were all brilliant, and it took me a good... dunno, maybe half an hour, to play through on medium. It never felt too hard nor too easy, and I only died once. This really is brilliant, kudos to Adam for releasing such a fully realised SP experience.

I just jumped back on the elevator so I wouldn't have to fight any of them. :lol:

Me too :D

Still, this is the first mod I've played that gave me that warm Half-Life 2 atmospheric feeling. Ten thumbs up.

I got stuck at the room with the Combine door you have to open. How the hell do you open that door?
Their first album was better.

I thought it was a bit laggy, but otherwise was good and fun.

Hope to play the other episodes.
