Dark Operations

for Opposing Force

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

Author’s Note: “Dark Operations is a mappack for Opposing Force. It has several puzzles to make it more thinking oriented as well as being full of action. You will traverse and do battle in many different places: labs, offices, warehouses, underground areas, silos, and several outdoor areas. You will also encounter a large variety of enemies on your mission. When it seems like everyone wants you dead, you will find many ally grunts to aid you in your mission. You will also see many sequences in Dark Operations. Enjoy.”

Overawe

You find yourself in a toxic wasteland.

Pinned down and weaponless, your objective is to stop those damn Combine Snipers!

Escape and freedom are just around the corner, or so it seems.

The Red Area

for Opposing Force

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

You start in The Red Area and must make your way to the escape aircraft.

Unfortunately, the aliens and army grunts don’t want you to get there.

Fortunately, you have enough weapons and ammo to disagree, most violently I might add, and do as you please.

Good luck, because this is a tough challenge!

Have you ever wondered what would happen in Typical Disaster if it hadn’t ended it after the last “office” map?

If you have, you’re in luck, because you’re going to find it
out right now!

In the ventilation shaft Gordon experienced another teleportation and lost almost all his weapons.

Now, there is blockage behind him, so the only way out is forward.
