About

The map starts with a Woman being guarded by a Combine Soldier. Nothing happens until you kill the guard and then all hell breaks loose! You need to protect her, if she dies then the map is over. To be honest I couldn’t finish this map without cheating and even then I died a hundred times.

I would really like to hear from players who can complete this map about the best strategy to use.

    I didn’t make it far and after 2 tries I really wasn’t interested in playing more. Looks ok but you are contained in one small area so there really isn’t much to it. Poor.

  2. Phillip says Maybe

    First of all, I have put this back on the frontpage because the file was lost but has been kindly supplied by those cool guys from City17.ru, a great HL2 SP resource in Russian.

    This is a specialist type of map and not everybody will like it. For the type of map it is, it’s great. Protect the woman from the advancing enemy. They come from three different locations.

    It’s freaking hard to win and as I said in the main post I had to cheat, even on EASY, and it still wasn’t easy.

    I’ve deleted all the previous comments related to the missing file.

    Maybe?

    Playing normally, I wasn’t able to fight my way past the horde of shotgun soldiers at the end.

    However, there were enough phys objects to block off all the Combine spawn points, and you have plenty of time to place them since the game doesn’t start until you take out the metrocop in the beginning.

    The game runs on a timer, so once you’ve eliminated the Combine as a threat all you have to do is sit back. After a while the screen fades to black and you get the message:

    “You win. You dont suck”

  4. Link is dead…can’t find it anywhere via google.
    Hope it get’s uploaded again if ain’t too much of a bother.

    1. I have added a working download link. It’s the blue button. Sorry about the link colour, that will change soon.

    I literally had no trouble dispatching a wave of combine soldiers until the shotgunners came. They’re the priority so what I did was to block all the exits so none of the soldiers can get close to you the fact that they don’t know how to jump. The difficulty isn’t really that hard, I played it on normal. It’s just that the map is unbalanced, sending a large number of shotgunners. The map is also broken because while defending the citizen, I just won in the middle of the gunfight. How the hell did that happen? My guess is that the map is broken

  6. Think Twice

    Another one of those old defense maps.
    Level design was average, this is the only positive point of the map.
    Everything else is bad:
    Bad balancing.
    Bad defense point.
    No events, music, ambience just waves of combine soldiers coming from closed areas.
    Though I was surprised by APC attack and that was the only special event of the map.
    Also you don’t have to kill all the combines, it just ended midfight.
