Coastline to Atmosphere - Singleplayer - Released

This mod continues the story where Half-Life 2 finished and offers one possible scenario. After the big explosion you fall to the ground and are very badly injured. Some people find you and take you home to a small village outside the city where the citadel was built. After 3 months you’re strong again and want to fight on. You have never seen Alyx or any of the others since the explosion. But you try to find new people that will fight with you against Breen. Nobody wants to help, some are afraid, others think that Breen has learned his lesson and won’t start again. It also seems that most of his organisation was lost in the explosion. Then you hear that along the coast Breen is starting again and trying to take control again. So you decide to go to the coast. There you take a little boat and go along the coast so the Combine won’t notice you coming.
Stoat says
It's a 15-level single-player story that follows on from the end on HL2.
It's got some interesting ideas in it and it's a bit tougher than HL2 too. Certainly worth a go. Also most of the cast die and there's a royally odd hallucination section a la Max Payne.

Just copyed out of the HL2 mods thread, could someone who has played tihs make a little review please and give it a ranking.

Thanks

If this had been released before Episode 1 I might have considered bothering, but since the post Citadel hasplosions storyline has been established I really don't see the point. It's like reading stupid Star Wars fanfic.

I downloaded it and then realised I'd already got it installed and played some of it.

As for a review: I played it for a couple of hours. It's not bad I suppose, looks okay and reasonably well put together. It's obvious some time has been spent on it but it's lacking some of that elusive "fun" factor, maybe because it's a bit annoyingly hard.

From the few mods I've played I can only recommend this one (if you've haven't played it, it's not horses).
