@@jamesanderson5727 Meant figuratively. Like the Beta's world was more somber in appearance. The lighting style and textures used in the early versions of HL2 were quite gloomy, or "dark".
9:29 Proof the Air Exchange should NEVER have been cut. The idea that a masterpiece of set pieces, storytelling, and atmosphere was removed and replaced with a dumb repetitive jail, all just because they were scared gas masks would make it hard to see the facial animation is unforgivably stupid. Just design better gas masks for the resistance to use.
@@RebeccaTye-vn5gi The facial animation was an extremely big deal for 2004. It was more advanced than anything at the time and Valve hired a medical expert to help them with the anatomy. So it's understandable why they made the decision, however it's my personal opinion that story should not be sacrificed, it should be priority
Seems like every other air exchange map we've had so far.. But this one is just less polished and there are missing textures and boring enemy placements.
Yes, I thought it was pretty good but it was less polished, and where were the fucking conscripts? That was a major part of the story and they just cut it out. And the giant pistons weren't even moving with a vast brown wall in between each. I thought this was amazing but there is obviously lots of important things missing.

The actual beta was gritty af. The mod really captures that grityness.
Gritty? What do you mean?

@@RadiationHazardYT Oh okay. Yeah, I really liked that tone of the beta.
Valve once said
Let there be *no* light

More good content from the Half Life 2 Beta team
This is nice
i want to see the half life 2 beta with working animations etc, i love the dark feeling of this storyline
either way this is pretty epic
Keeping in mind the number of
HL2 mods
How many beers Barney owes
to Gordon?
oh man 😳
...
Probably the same number of the population of earth
They should have kept the air exchange. I know having both it and nova prospekt would've been redundant, but it's so cool.
Still can't believe 2004 had this masterpiece
This is actually like 2001 because this is the beta

That's it? They cut an entire chapter because of gas mask!!!

@@vanilla8956 ah I see
My goal is to get one of my maps played by bolloxed in my lifetime
The sniper animation is really good xd
what's the difference between this and the original air exchange mod other than one being regular hl2 and one being actual beta?

Не, ну двух комбайнов без смертей пройти то можно, да
Наконец-то кто-то русский
Beta top, So are yours. 👍🏿
This is amazing my friend 👍✅💕💝💝
They should have kept that sniper rifle in the final version. But, alas, that also never happened. Valve loves trolling the community so much.
Does anyone have a working download for this mod? It is no longer up
If you want I reposted it on Moddb months ago
@@psssey3860 awesome, same page?
