Zombie Panic! Source

Zombie Panic! Source

This mod is a gem. Hell i wasnt even a fan of the whole zombie genre when i tried this game out of curiosity five years ago but it quickly won me over thanks to its gameplay and atmosphere. Its immersive, challenging (teamwork is a MUST) and above all, fun.

An interesting aspect of the game is that you actually can play as a zombie after you died. No bot slaughterfest à la Left 4 Dead here. Its very enjoyable to fight a zombie horde composed of other players trying to overwhelm you so you can join their ranks. Zombos can also infect you which really adds to the tension since it creates a climate of suspicion among the survivors.

Zombie Panic: Source changed my life. While that sounds dramatic, ZPS is what got me into map/level design with the Hammer Editor. I loved creating levels so much, that I looked further and realized there were schools for game design. I am now in my second year of 3D Animation & Modeling. I still remember my very first time playing this - Sunday, October 8th, 2008. Only Eugene and Marcus were available. It was on ZPO_Deadblock. I remember a guy exploiting the padlock on the fenced gate.

Not as great as the main series by far, but it’s free and having some rounds with friends can fill quite a few evenings.

Mankind tried to colonize other worlds when natural resources of Earth had run out. In order to discover new planets and to make them habitable A.I. robots were sent deep into the outer space. However something caused a global system malfunction and the terraforming process was interrupted. These smart machines went out of control and started to build their own tech world threatening the newly born biosphere…

All but one. The last of these robots found itself in a hostile environment of the gloomy and unfriendly planet XS-1271 far away from Earth. The surface of this planet was severe disfigured as a result of a failed terraforming process. Why did the mission of colonizing a new world fail? What went wrong and what could be done to stave an inevitable collapse off? This intelligent machine is up to survive and expose the truth behind this madness and the death of ecosystems.

Hundreds of unique enemies spawned by a technology disaster are eager do attack lone robot as it wanders the paths of a huge and constantly changing planet full of dangerous traps and engaging puzzles. The only way to survive is never to stop improving skills and battle tactics as well as to upgrade weapons and abilities of the protagonist. Change and progress are the keys to the truth!

High Noon VR

System being used:

VIVE Pro, Pro controllers and 2.0 sensors, i9-7900X, 1080 and 32 GB RAM

This game is a perfect representation of the old west in a wave shooter. The weapons are hyper-accurate, the tracking is superb. No hiccups in graphics, no artifacting, no screen tearing, no errors or crashes. Everything performs well.

Some features of the game include:

Having multiple “maps” where enemies will randomly spawn and attack you with basic AI.

You have an on-screen HUD arrow that notifies you if an enemy spawns too far out of your line of sight.

No luck catching those killers, then?

It’s just the one killer, actually…

A fun game where you play a (possibly undead) sheriff as he kills his way through seemingly infinite outlaws in an otherwise-uninhabited town. Your only companion is a voice that may or may not be entirely in your head. The voice seems to alternate between praising your killing prowess, making corny jokes, and implying that you might be a dangerously unstable psychopath. I played an earlier version of this with my Viveport subscription, but this version is much more polished and balanced. It would be nice if you could purchase and upgrade armor, as a way of fortifying your health in addition to all the weapon upgrades, and the side task to kill 6 enemies in 3 seconds with dynamite is a bit unbalanced (it’s hard enough to just get 6 bandits on screen at once without them blowing themselves up…) but other than that, it’s pretty great.

Dystopia

Dystopia

It doesn’t get any better than this.

Each map is unique in its setting and objective concept (the cyberpunk theme of the game is greatly enhanced by excellent skybox’s and background noise that draws you into the level). They require good team co-ordination in order to win. Especially since aspects of the objectives take place in 2 parallel worlds that affect each other in real time [Meatspace - physical world: similar to most fps with a cyperpunk theme (weapons like laser rifle, tesla rifle, ion cannon), 3 class types (v.balanced) and deus ex like implants, inc increased speed, thermal vision, medic, stealth(invisi). Cyberspace - think system shock 1 or tripping on acid: req decking implant; deckers speed thru cyberspace hacking objectives, adding security and fighting off enemy deckers in low grav/high speed combat using in essence quake railgun, lightening gun and rocket launcher.]

Real player with 1765.2 hrs in game

What started out as an old half life 2 mod is now an independent game with a dedicated community and recently updated to 1.5.2! Dystopia gives some quake-style play with objectives and and alternate cyber space realm where players fight in quasi gravity for control over nodes. Cyberspace nodes can be secondary objectives to open up new paths around choke points or seal off defender’s quick access to the objective. They can also switch turrets to shoot the other team! Other times an objective requires getting a player with a deck implant in the middle of enemy territory and hacking an objective.

No More Room in Hell

No More Room in Hell

Free zombie coop source mod that’s not for everyone, but it’s free so no funds needed to try it out. This is more of a what to expect than a review.

General features

  • Stamina meter (No visual tell for specific amount) used for swinging melee, running, jumping, shoving.

  • Carry capacity, no hoarding everything you find, will affect movement speed and stamina if it exceeds certain points. 0-50% unburdened, 51-99% slightly burdened, 100% extreme burden

  • Large selection of firearms, limited supply of ammunition.

Real player with 419.0 hrs in game

When I originally tried out this game, I had no idea it would become one of my all time favorite games ever.

When you first start playing, you join an online lobby or make a lobby with friends on a map you’re not familiar with. Nothing makes sense and everything is confusing. The default controls aren’t incredibly intuitive, melee feels like it’s worthless, you run out of stamina as with as little as two or three swings for some weapons, and although the guns feel great, good luck finding a decent amount of ammo (especially if you’re playing online). But if you just have a bit a patience, remap some of the controls and understand that this isn’t meant to be a fast-paced guns blazing action game, you might find yourself enjoying the game a little. Or a lot.

The Forgotten Ones

The Forgotten Ones

updated review:–———–

A survival horror game that needs a little bit more polish and a few bug fixes. A new update to the game improved on alot of the problems. There is still more work to do however.

What i liked:

-The game uses the cry of fear ammo mechanic (which means when you reload any bullets in that mag are gone) which punishes those who always reload after firing 5 rounds in a 30 round mag

-the weapons feel good as well as a nice variety

-Fun to shoot those evil things

-interesting bleed out mechanic

The Forgotten Ones is a Half Life 2 horror mod available for free.

It’s also a pretty bad game. Despite the story’s premise being interesting it’s not developed in any meaningful way, the only reminders of a story even existing in the first place being missable notes barely saying anything scattered across the game.

The typical atmosphere a horror game worthy of that name should possess is completely absent. Even the cat scares are horribly executed and will leave you wondering what just happened. The only scary thing in the game are the monsters, not because of they way they look or sound or anything like that, but simply because even the weakest creatures are unstoppable juggernauts of doom for about 3/4 of the game. They hit like trains, slowing down the player and leaving their aim wobbling all over the place, while shrugging off the completely inadequate gunfire.

THIS GAME IS GREAT!!!!

I have no idea why the developers did not charge money for this game. This game is basically Half Life 2 with a few different mechanics. The game is even set in the same world. And with Valve not making HL3, this is as close as it gets. I have absolutly no complaints about the gameplay, story, or anything in the game. My only complaint is that the story is to short. It is only four chapters, but the chapters are GREAT. The engine is still the Source engine so no performance problems and a nice physics system. As I said above, this game is basically HL3 - YOU SHOULD BE DOWNLOADING THIS GAME RIGHT NOW!

The Source modding community is still very much alive and kicking since 1998. The community has produced many great mods over the years - from birthing the Counter-Strike and Team Fortress series, to creating many popular HL2 mods - including The Stanley Parable, Black Mesa, Minerva: Metastasis and a myriad of other well-designed mods. From this, we arrive at Transmissions: Element 120 - a standalone Half-Life 2 mod that focuses on showcasing several new Source technologies.

NEW UPDATE: See below

Yes, I still play this game on occasion. I left a review because the developer of this game was trying to quell dissent like a tinpot dictator in the FoF forums.

Update: On March 30th, Rebel_Y attempted to censor this review by flagging it as “Abusive”.

After evaluation by a Steam moderator, this review was deemed compliant with current guidelines.

No content was found abusive.

I have never seen a single developer, in the face of overwhelming consensus, go to such lengths in order to suppress a thoughtful, measured evaluation of their game just because it espouses a point of view with which they happen to disagree.

Why you should play this game,

(You may think that i only have 57 hours, but i have multiple sub-accounts)

Simple answer is, it’s the best cowboy game ever made

1.It’s in source engine, believe it or not, source engine is probably the best engine for crappy computers and have great performance

2.Free to play, No leveling system, no level rewards, no micro transactions, You get everything when you install the game

3. Scoring system, The harder it is to kill someone, the more score you get. For example. Kicking a person off the cliff rewards you 15 Points, killing someone with a one hit kill and overpowered revolver gives you 4 points
