Many cult games have huge communities that support them with these customized expansions or mods that are meant to improve them and make players’ gaming experience more enjoyable. If you fancy giving Lambda Wars a try, you can grab it for free on Steam right now.When a dedicated community awaits too much time for a sequel to their favorite game, the next thing they can do while waiting is come up with new mods for the already existing titles. "It has been one hell of a journey and hopefully it will bring some joy to Half-Life and RTS players," they add. In a post on Reddit, one of the modders mentions that the team have received a few donations for making the mod over the years, but it's mostly been a "free time" project for them: "We've had discussions about finding forms of funding, but ultimately we decided to keep it as a passion project". Released over the weekend, version 1.0 brings four new units - Heavy Rebels, Heavy Combines, Cran Synths and Mortar Synths - new buildings and a load of bug fixes and balance changes, which you can check out in the patch notes. It sees players take up the mantle of Resistance commander or Combine overlord in singleplayer, co-op and multiplayer modes, and swaps out the game's first-person battles for real-time strategy skirmishes. Lambda Wars is a free standalone mod set in the HL2 universe, and based off of the code for Valve's 2010 top-down shooter, Alien Swarm. But over the weekend, Lambda Wars finally launched in full, inviting players to explore the world of Half-life 2 from a new perspective (that is: a strategic top-down one).
"But it's very, very early, with a lot of work to go."Īnd a whole lot of work it was - 13 years of it. "It's a ton of fun to see the familiar in such a different and well-considered format," he said. Way back in 2007, Alec Meer (RPS in peace) played a promising RTS mod for Half-life 2.
