[n00b1n8R]

where does this fit into the half life story?

before/after/during HL2?

[rossmum]

It's a non-canon part of the overall story, but a totally different character. Quite frankly, I have no idea... but who cares? It wins hard.

It's based off of the Marathon story.

orly? and I was just joking about the needing moar halo thing, heh :-3

The story is really fucking cryptic, but it still feels deep as you're playing it

e:

Yeah, a lot like the Marathon storyline

:awesome:

The first thing I thought of when I played it through for the first time was "wow, bastard child of Halo and HL2 much?"... as it happens, he did draw a lot of inspiration from Halo for it.

[MNC]

Great, now to just get Half Life 2. And a slightly more roxxing pc so it can run half life 2.

If your computer is the following or better:
64 MB GeForce 420 MX
2.4 GhZ P4
256 mb RAM

You can run HL2 just fine. Just...not any other source games except Gmod 9.
:saddowns:

[rossmum]

Hell, my old 1.5GHz P4 ran it fine...

Well, yea, but I don't have that PC, yet. You misread the GBX topic/I worded it wrong.

[DrunkenSamus]

Dude, HL2 ran fine on five gfx card. It's made to run on low-end systems fairly well.

[MNC]

It does not run on
800Mhz
128 MB RAM
ATI Radeon 9000

Atleast, I tried and it didn't work :v

[rossmum]

Just finished it.

I don't even think I can begin to describe how incredibly amazing that was...

[Pooky]

So It's up for download now? Getting it.

[Rob Oplawar]

*BUMP*!
Just finished it.
I'm really really glad I played it.

Seriously, in an alternate universe, where I had been born into Half Life instead of Halo, that would be the map I was trying to make.
I mean, I'm trying to make Minerva, but for Halo.
That is- pretty much a single guy working alone, although I do have some help, on a mod that just focuses on adding new story and locations to the parent game, without messing with the weapons or enemies or gameplay, and aiming to just make it EPIC.
And yes, Minerva was EPIC.

Since I can't find any decent competition for Halo CE, I'm adopting Minerva as my competition- that's my bar, that's how good my map needs to be. Needless to say I've got my work cut out for me, and I'm feeling very meek and insecure and untalented, but that won't help me none, so I'ma get back to work after I say one thing:

That mod was brilliant, and very inspirational.

[Sever]

Makes me wish I played Halflife also. I've probably got one game too many right now, though, so I'll just have to wait for Bridge CE to experience the same level of epic.

I did find it kind of odd that the Half Life 2 gimmicks (gravity gun crowbar and scent sac thing) never made an appearance anywhere, but the game actually felt more solid without them.

[n00b1n8R]

the grav gun wouldn't make much sense story wise (assuming there's only the one in existence) but I never really liked the bug bait to begin with :|

[Tweek]

what? i need episode one to play this? :<

[n00b1n8R]

D:!!

[FireDragon04]

I played Minerva where your on an island and like that was awesome felt like a single player game in it's self. If i download the metastasis_patched now do i get the next 2 episodes or what? I didn't even know there was a PART 2. Unless i've played it without knowing... :eek:

:mad::( Just installed the new patch, nothing new for me :(:mad:
I must have the same version.
Can't say when i played it, it wasn't good, because it was awesome! 4 Chapters of lengthy goodness...but yea i don't see anything new yet...
