Odd Mod Idea

Long Post Warning: A mod in which you are unarmed, and you just have to escape. You only SEE the enemies, and witness the key moments from HL1.
You get in the tram before Gordon’s one (Blues Shift is not canon), hear these annoying messages ( :stuck_out_tongue: ), get in the lab, wait for Gordon (boring part, but you get to explore a little), activate the stage-two emitters, then, you black out. You wake up in the elevator, barely managing to escape, long after Gordon killed the headcrab in that room and the zombies, [OPTIONAL] activate an explosive charge planted by the HECU, which clears the way, so you don’t have to crawl through the vents [/OPTIONAL], finding your way around. Then, you take the elevator Gordon went to the Office Complex (this time, it was at the other floor), watch the headcrabs in the vents getting chopped by the huge fan. The level would be filled with lots of bodies. You would avoid Barnacles (alive ones), find a room with alive aliens, and activate the ceiling turret, and at the end, see Gordon jumping around in the elevator shaft. Next, you would just go through the underground, seing fallen turrets and dead soldiers. After this, you would witness Gordon kill the Tentacle just as you get in, and jumping on pipes, avoiding the hazardous liquids. You would run from the Gargantua, and while Gordon is gone to activate the generator, you would activate a door switch which allows Gordon to get to the generator faster and kill the Garg, and then, another train would come and you would go through the old railway storage, seing the legendary HECU grafitti and there would be weaker Houndeyes, which would only have a flashbang efect, and it would be annoying, making you go faster. You would reach the rocket launching facility as Gordon launches it. Then, you would continue going, but you would get shot non-lethally by a Black Op and dragged to the trash compactor, waking up as it was closing. You would jump around the waste processing plant, and on the conveyor belts, then seing the surgical station being disabledby Gordon, but the doors would be locked, so that you couldn’t get too near to Gordon, and see the dead Alien Grunts. Then, you would see Gordon destroying the Apache, and jump around from ledge to ledge. Then, you would encounter a Garg, but mange to kill it using the HECU mortars. Then, as you would enter the Lambda Core, a portal would open and you would find yoursef in the in the Nihilanth’s chanber, wher it would shoot a green orb at you, and you would be in a chamber, falling, and just before hitting the ground, the game would end.

SORRY FOR THIS! I POSTED IT ACCIDENTALLY!

Well, one of the many good things about black mesa is the mini mods. So, hell, you could make anything you wanted to because all the assets are there. Anyways I get what your saying, and it wouldn’t be a" bad" mod. However it would need a lot of work to make it interesting and fun.

So basically Half Life 1, but everything is already done?

Well, it should have lots of minigames.

I personally don’t know what to say…I mean it’s a good ideea…But the gameplay would be boring.
Maybe you should make it more active,with more action and intense gameplay.
Anyways,pretty good ideea.

…So basically Half Life 1, but with Mario Party minigames? :fffuuu:

Oh, shut up!

Why are you telling us this? Do you want help?

I don’t think it’s a very good idea, it would be minorily interesting to play, but no one would ever complete development. It has alot of flaws as well.

I agree with Dust.
The idea isn’t good, sorry.
All it is, is basically a movie, watching Gordon go through Black Mesa, boring…

no-one will play it.

Just an idea, calm down! Think at it like of a Research&Development in BM.

OK, sorry.
but srsly, dont make it.

I don’t even know to use the SDK. JUST. AN. IDEA.

Oh dang,and another one bites the dust.

Sounds like Oddworld.

At least use paragraphs in the OP.

It’s too much for me to read at once.

WHAT’S. THE. POINT. THEN?

What? He can only talk about things he can do?
Like you never talk about, I don’t know, space traveling because you don’t know how to do it?

This is oddworld isn’t it?

seriously guys, stop flaming at the guy just because he had an idea.

it’s threads like these that keep roaches like myself from posting … and I’ve been following these forums for at least 2 years now.

but anyways, I think the idea has potential. perhaps gameplay strictly involves puzzle solving without weapons? I mean, look at the success of portal.
