Half Life 2 RTS Conversion
Smells Like A Holocaust \| 4:29 AM on 11.12.2007	5 comments

There is a new mod out made from the Half Life 2 and Source Engine resources which turns the game into an action-packed RTS. I think GameBrink said what it is nicely:

GameBrink: Half-Life 2: Wars is released! Half-Life 2: Wars is a realtime strategy modification in the hl2 universum. This release is more like a small demo of the mod and is intended as a preview on the mod. The release is featuring two maps and most of the stuff you would expect in a rts game. Units can be recruited and resources are gained from control points. In later releases the mod will be expanded with base building, more units, worked out sides and multiplayer.

Full story here

thoughts. I am actually very intrigued by this. A Half Life 2 RTS sounds synonymous with the series in my opinion. Hopefully this will be nicely done and will create a solid community along with it. I am downloading it now, expect a more in depth analysis of it in the days to come.

Yeh I do, unlike every member here...so I think a few important Digg updates here and there could benefit the people here who don't go..

A good chunk of the blog posts here are articles from digg. So? It's a pretty good source for gaming news.

how many HL2 RTSs does that make? Like 20? :(
