Half-Life: Ops

for Half-Life

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

A series of short missions, each with its own gameplay style.

A tactical assault, a box-moving puzzle area, a parachute drop, another tactical assault and finally an arena-style mission.

It’s tough, so be prepared for a difficult 30 minutes of playing.

The Extreme Fight

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

The Extreme Fight for Half-Life 2: Episode Two - Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

A couple of distinct areas to find and kill the Hunters and Antlions. It’s not about the architecture in this map but the gameplay. My screenshots don’t show it but there is at least one Hunter and the Buggy is available. I’ll be honest and say I haven’t found the buggy yet and every time I fight the Hunter I die.

Shooting Range

for Half-Life 2

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

A short mod with two separate levels; the first is a very basic shooting range that allows you to try the new weapons etc. The second is just an areaa to run and shoot the zombies with the new weapons. No story but it’s not that important for this.

You seem to have been kidnapped and are being kept in a bunker, guarded by zombies.

As you affect your escape, you enter dream-like states, where reality and fantasy mix.

Keep a clear head and focus on your objective and you may just escape.
