This is a very good mod (8/10) but the only thing that really annoys me is that you took scares and ideas from Nightmare House 2, but other than that it is really well done!
guyz i get ''ed_alloc: no free edicts'' error. is anyone know the solution? i tried changing num_edicts 3072 but it doesn't work for me.
Sorry, But from what I experienced thats due to having a low end pc and a unoptimized mod. Ill be sure to make Aberration part 2 much more optimized so everyone can play it.
I agree with culpepper completely word for word. This was an excelent mod and the cafeteria scare made me fall out of my chair, right when i was getting comfortable! I absolutly loved the gun models and sounds, so original, which in my opinion is the best. Please dont let this die or be a Half-Life 3, and soon as you are done with source forts I would love it if you get beck on this as soon as you get the chance. This has so much potential and I would hate to see it wasted. So good luck, and happy mapping.
Cheers!
Absolutely brilliant MOD!! I was so disappointed when I reached the end- I need more!!!! The whole thing is amazing- the detail, the look of it, the feel of it- when is the next part out?
Sorry, I cant give you a real estimate, I am currently too tied up with Source Forts 2.
DON'T YOU GUYS DARE TL;DR THIS!!!!
HFS! This is a REALLY underrated mod! That was incredible. The foreboding atmosphere was effectively accomplished via powerful color correction a midst a minimalist ambient soundscape! The large dreary corridors added to a despair-inducing sense of isolation, as the player is forced to traverse a seemingly depressing backdrop.
The gunplay was tough, but fair. I especially like how scarce ammo and health is -- it adds to a sense of survival horror. I died on multiple occasions on the massive fight scene, BUT IT WAS NOT FRUSTRATING AT ALL (Played on HARD). It was intense, but balanced -- although I don't know how exactly you pulled it off, it was incredibly satisfying post-fight.
In summary, this mod boasts of incredible design! The authentic scares, the mapping (DAT ARCHITECTURE), the colors, the lighting, the scripting, gameplay elements -- i.e. explosive barrel placement, supplies scarcity, etc... ALL meticulously studied and effectively applied. The custom weapon models and sounds were of a psychological significance too (i.e. the pistol had a more fuller fire sound; I found it more reliable and deadly, regardless of the fact that I know that the stats are unaltered(?).) Also, and this is VERY important, your attention to little details is astounding -- a superior use of stock content. With a simple sound replacement here and there, the mod felt like a completely different game with such little effort.
This was An ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC experience for me. I found myself completely immersed throughout the entirety of the mod. It was short, but definitely not hanging. To the people who are actually reading this. Download the mod. PLAY THE **** OUT OF IT. NAO. This man deserves a medal. GOSH DARN.
How very kind of you.
I played this and I enjoyed it, not all of it but a good part. 50% of all the rooms felt like a waste though, Just boxes with some props in them. The mapping is good but pretty depressing. Just my personal opinions, the mod is great, can't wait for part 2.
I have to say, I'd be more impressed if there wasn't so much HL2 stuff slathered on the walls, and if there was a suitable soundtrack + custom noises, and custom models for the monsters/zombies.
However, this was a good effort and I liked some of the mind-bender moments.
