My review of gm_industrial17_v1: Perhaps the best map I've ever played
I have many amazing things to say about this mod. The atmosphere is phenomenal, and it captures the spirit of the original HL2 beta better than any other map out there. The day/night cycle addon makes for some really beautiful scenery. Every nook and cranny of this map gives you "that feeling." The back alleys are dingy and gritty enough to put you on edge, and as w whole the map is the perfect mix of depressing and creepy. My personal favorite areas are the Café Baltic, the Grizzly Grotto, the CyberCafé, and the creepy warehouse areas in the industrial district. I only have a few negatives to point out: One, there's a broken texture near the stairs to the Café Baltic area. Two, a couple Combine doors are broken, as they won't open even if you're playing as a Combine. Lastly, I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to activate a judgement waiver. I have a few suggestions for some things I'd love to see in this map in the future. One, I think it would be awesome if the train station was more akin to the one in the HL2 beta--a chasm with train tracks ominously floating above. Two, I would also love to see the Vertigo skyscraper, canals, Manhack arcade, and Combine factories from the beta. Lastly, I think the sewers are very difficult to enter without no-clipping. I understand they're supposed to be hidden, but I think some indication at their entrances, maybe like a Rattmann-style arrow, would be welcome. Other than those things, I think this might be my favorite map I've ever played in Garry's Mod. Props to you.

Update: The broken texture I talked about was actually because I didn’t have CS:S installed.
