Half-Life: Opposing Force

[Toadman]

Just grabbed OPFOR out of the boxes at the store as they were unpacking it. Woo Hoo!
I'll let you know if it's worth the $39.95.
At least it;s multiplayer.

They have it for $29.99. I've ordered from them about half a dozen times & they are reliable.

I wimped out- couldn't wait the 3 days so I got it from the mall today. WOOOHOOO! It rocks!

Beat it in 6 hours on easy (bit short..)
Wonder if the endings diff in different difficulties?
While theres not alot of new stuff, the whole soldier thing is great, and the new weapons are real cool. Also, the puzzles are just right, where youll find the answer to a puzzle amost the the same exact moment your about to give in. Also, theres some real neat effects that keep it interesting. Its still too short tho..and I havent hit the multiplay front yet...gunna check that out soon.

Let us know about multiplayer role asap?

[AuraEdge]

I was never a big fan of HL standard multiplayer. I am however a BIG fan of TFC, and OpFor doesnt change that
All thats added in HL (as far as I know) is the added weapons on some maps. Maybe theres new maps and/or mods. Not sure at all!
Just gunna keep sluggin away at TFC.

how does the single player compare to the original halflife, when i first heard about it i thought it sounded a tad stupid, but if it's even half as good as the original, i'll be happy. Is there any change to the graphics or gameplay?

[AuraEdge]

The quality of the mission is every bit as good!
maybe even better, becuase of the more interaction with side characters.. (remember in uplink where you had to run away from soldiers that were cutting thru a door? U can get guys to do that!)
real neat...its a bit short for my taste but the mission is superb.

Well I got it last night....ha, bad idea. I say that in the light of the fact that it's 5:13pm and I've been up for an hour. Other than being shorter, It's better overall. There has only been one time where I thought "ok, enough is enough". (that was after comeing out of those pitch dark pipes and then haveing to go back in more). Well, I'm at the final boss....any tips?????

Ha, nevermind, beat it. You have to love that rocket launcher. /forum/smile.gif
