Decades after the Combine invasion, the planet is a shell of its former self. The remaining population has been segmented into controlled urban sectors spread across the wasteland. The Air Exchange has been running for many years, and clean air has become a distant memory.

FORECLOSURE BETA
Welcome to the dark and gritty world of the Half-Life 2 Beta. This map hopes to capture the universe hinted at in the HL2 Beta concept art, sticking closely to the simplistic Beta visuals. Every structure — excluding used assets — has been rebuilt by hand based off of designs from various leaked Beta maps.

Enjoy exploring this expansive, dystopian city as you discover its gloomy backstory and the many secrets hidden within. From walking through the stone streets and taking in the contaminated air, to investigating the abandoned subway station or the run-down apartments, to hearing the many didactic messages of the Consul, there is plenty of content to enjoy.

Note: This is the "beta" or "lite" version of gm_foreclosure, meant to recreate the original, undeveloped Beta visuals. For a far more detailed and "modern" version, please check out the original map!

Notes:
  • Noclipping through indoor areas rather than going through doors may lead to incorrect soundscapes.
  • If you are having FPS issues, try using the buttons in the Admin Room and/or disabling addons.

Actually looks like a 2000-2001 map but detailed compared to the other beta maps on the workshop that look more like a map from a pre-pitch era story recreation mod.
