Hidden source is dead as fuck now

[QUOTE=AtomicSans;48622614]Hidden source is dead as fuck now[/QUOTE] No it isn't, and there are plenty of servers. Just hop on in US hours and there are plenty of full US servers.

Aside from the mods listed earlier, does anyone else have any other singleplayer mods to suggest killing time with? I'm not too concerned about super high-quality mods which have a grand scope, I'm also down to to play some small mods as well that are at least slightly fun

[QUOTE=glitchvid;48623910]No it isn't, and there are plenty of servers. Just hop on in US hours and there are plenty of full US servers.[/QUOTE]Really? Oh man. I used to play it all the time, might have to give it another go.

I'd love for people to recommend some good ass Half-Life 2 maps. Don't feel like playing through the game for the millionth time

It's pretty good. Story-wise it happens in EP1 timeline.

[url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/get-a-life[/url] - Early HL2 Mod, larger in scope and medicore in quality, you might have a hard time getting it to run. [url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/underhell[/url] - I remember playing this when it was a SMOD ripoff, but it's super advanced now. [url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/g-string[/url] - IIRC made by a single person over several years [url]http://www.runthinkshootlive.com/posts/mission-improbable/[/url] - A single map, really good gameplay design.

[QUOTE=glitchvid;48626267] [url]http://www.moddb.com/mods/g-string[/url] - IIRC made by a single person over several years[/QUOTE] This definitely looks like it's worth a try. Really surprised it hasn't been Greenlit yet. [editline]September 6, 2015[/editline] Oh, it's a public beta. Still though, that level of detail put into it over the years.

Still though, that level of detail put into it over the years.[/QUOTE] It's pretty good but I found some of the level design to be kinda meh, sometimes it doesn't really give much indication as to which way you are supposed to go.

im shocked you guys hadnt mentioned dayhard or Human Error yet, also the Citizen has a sequel now too

DayHard? I remember that "custom story", gave me a giggle back in the day.

There's all sorts of stuff, if you're looking for good short maps, check runthinkshootlive.com[/QUOTE] More than one map now. There's three maps and it makes a small storyline. It's pretty great, I seriously suggest everyone checks it out.

Thanks for the recommendations, guys! Gonna check each one out soon.

[url=http://www.moddb.com/mods/coastline-to-atmosphere]Coastline to Atmosphere[/url] was a pretty cool "what if" mod back before EP1 came out.

Minerva Metastasis will always be the god-tier benchmark of source mods

[QUOTE=AtomicSans;48627791]Minerva Metastasis will always be the god-tier benchmark of mods[/QUOTE] ftfy Seriously, no matter how much you look, mods with THAT level of quality are not that common.

minerva is above valve quality level design tbh [editline]6th September 2015[/editline] STILL waiting for the sequel though.

Is there a sequel meant for it? I thought it was one of those "left to the imagination" endings... I can't wait for the Source 2 engine. I will actually be able to utilize the ideas I have for maps and not having to worry about limits and, of course, the space to put them. I'm a bit of a nut for trains, but I like the idea of incorporating build and RP together. So having large scale maps with villages and such would be great. But I would like to know; will the next engine provide better multiplayer services? Can we have more players on servers and not have the games spaz out?

no they plan a sequel to it
