Black Mesa: Military reviews and comments
In this modification, you find yourself on the other side of the conflict — playing as a HECU soldier sent to «Black Mesa» to eliminate witnesses of the incident. Inspired by the classic «Opposing Force», the mod aims to show the events from the military's point of view.
Gameplay:
A classic action shooter with a focus on gunplay and tactics. The balance is off at times — dull shootouts alternate with sudden, ridiculous difficulty spikes. The AI for both enemies and allies often behaves strangely.
Technical Execution:
Some animations and level designs feel unpolished. Optimization is lacking — expect FPS drops and bugs.
Verdict:
«Black Mesa: Military» - is an attempt to tell a familiar story from a new angle, but the execution suffers from technical roughness and uninspired gameplay. Recommended only for hardcore fans of the «Half-Life» universe and modding scene.
