On a Rail Uncut

Its a good extension, but its not friendly for new gamers
Nice map and nice music, I love that "light off" battle, but this extension has too many traps, and I still dont know how to deal with that HECU sniper

Use grenades? Btw "Year of death" track is the best in a whole game.

The reason On A Rail was cut in the first place was it's poor level design. This mod adds that back in, although remade so it's up to par with the rest of BM. It's the same as it was in HL1 as it is here, I hate it and that's why I don't use it. If you're hellbent on playing, learn ways to cheese, or more legitimately, deal with the sniper. Half-Life is about thinking on your toes and using your environment, each weapon has it's own use that'll help you go forward, well, other than trip mine, think creatively and see what you can use to get that sniper.

-same as it was in HL1...

Someone obviously hasn't compared the two enough as the level design is improved by quite a bit (especially the first section).

-tripmines are useless...

They are some of the best trap-setters in the game. If you know where enemies are going to be (such as on a replay or dying there in the past) you can plant tripmines to take them out. For instance you can use specific tripmine placements in Power Up to deal with one of the ambushes there, or combine them with explosive barrels to knock out spawning aliens in some fights throughout the game.

I didn't find it overly difficult. Good challenge. Fun addition. Loved it!

Didn't ask? Why should anyone care if *you* asked, are you the author of the mod? No.
And you cared enough to comment, so much for "don't care".

Lol get good? MXYLR is one of the best mutiplayer players and is a very good speedrunner

I have been unable to kill the sniper even with perfect grenade placement.

The sniper is a truly bad design. Think back, if you dont install on a rail uncut, where do you meet those snipers first time ? Surface tension, after you get the rpg, and in surface tension uncut map, the dev put a rpg ammo box to remind you use rpg. But in on a rail uncut ? No, even the pro player who played hundres of times in this game doesnt know how to deal with the on a rail uncut snipers. In my opinion, to avoid this, just simply put some explosives near them or just remove those snipers like coop mod did.

If you don’t agree with me, you don’t have to argue with me, it’s just a waste of time.
