Give me goddamn TF2 or TF: Source or whatever those sweaty pedophiles want to call it and then I'll dish out the cash for Half Life 2.

It's fun except everybody is running 30 player servers. And the 2 maps included are made for 8-10 tops.

The prison map is great for stealth attacks. Lots of dark areas to hide with a shotgun. I like the other ruined city map, but with more than 10 people it's practically unplayable. Spawn and die instantly. For both maps whoever gets the shotgun first and camps the HEV recharge wins.
Runs very smoothly for me. Even with an army of players I felt little or no lag. A far cry from the first few months of HLDM. Bad netcode almost killed it for good.
The gravity gun is so insanely cheap, but fun as hell. One shot normally kills, and big objects can serve as shields. If you see a guy lugging something big around it's best to sneak behind him. Catching stuff thrown at you is possible.

Definitely needs more weapon variety, though. Laser trip mines and maybe bots offered in a patch sounds realistic. If not the community will make them.

Gravity gun is a lot of fun. I'm wondering what the future is for the MP, though. TF2 coming out sometime soon would be brilliant.

It sounds to me like HL2DM is in dire need of some OZ deathmatch server customizations.

There's a littlealley way, iirc. I'm pretty sure it involved jumping off of something to grab a ladder to a fire escape, then jumping off the other side of the fire escape which puts you on the other side of the fence.

hi !

thks a lot for your help. I'm moving on with half-life 2 , but I'm stuck again. I'm at the railway ruins area , seems like I have to stack the 2 crates to make it to the other side. A train compartment is blocking the way...

jumping up and down is giving mi headache...
