Synergy Mod for Half-Life 2

[Canai]

So there's this HL2 mod called Synergy, which is basically SVEN Coop for HL2. You can play the HL2 levels and many user-created levels. There are levels along the survival horror lines good for two or so people, and there are huge levels with many, many gunships and stiders and choppers that four or more people would have a blast on.

It is a lot of fun, and a few people in my clan play, but I'm looking to get some more players.

First get the mod v2.3.

Then get the 2.4 patch and the 2.5 patch.

Finally, you can grab the 420 MB map pack if you want.

This mod is definitely worth checking out, and I should be online tonight after 8pm CST if anyone wants to check it out.

I might give this a try tonight.

I like it a lot. I forgot to mention there are a few new weapons too. The SL8 Assault Rifle, Combine Machine Gun X (I think it's called that), the MP5K, and a flare gun (like the one in Blood, aka set people on fire )

edit: would anyone be interested in playing through the HL2 campaign? I can turn the damage ratios up so as to make it not quite so easy. I don't think all of the single player missions are fully working yet, but the majority of them are.

I forgot to mention the 2.5 patch came out just a few days ago too

This sounds really cool. I may have to update Steam and give it a shot.

Arg, filefront is crap today.

I got different mirrors for all the files (except the map mack) from http://www.planetdawson.com/synergy/?cp=files. Only filefront has the mappack so it's going to be a while .

OK, so I wasn't on last night, but the Bioshock demo is great. And I'm going to be playing the full game tonight, so I dunno when I'm going to be getting back into the Synergy mod heh. Soon, I'm sure, but probably not tonight.
