New Half-Life 2 mod lets you play dead
Just when I decided to reinstall my old copy of Half-Life 2, news of an interesting mod pops up. Anyone ever heard of Zombie Panic? Notice that I’m a sucker for games related to ninjas, zombies, and samurai, so don’t be surprised when I start drooling over this new mod.
Zombie Panic is a multiplayer that pits humans versus zombies. The session begins with just one zombie (can’t an entire team choose to play as zombies?), but whenever a human is slain, he respawns as one of the undead. The human side wins when they wipe out the zombies.
How is the game balanced? Well, each side has its own quirks. Humans are quicker, have more weapons, and can communicate via voice commands (through a menu). Zombies, on the other hand, have regeneration, some form of respawning, and zombie vision.
It’s interesting to note that while humans get the initial advantage in numbers, the zombies will eventually multiply as the game wears on.
The best part about the mod is that if by some strange reason you don’t have Half-Life 2, you can always play it in Half-Life. You can visit the download page here.
