Whether you’re playing the original Half-Life or Crowbar Collective’s beloved remake Black Mesa, your approach to basically every battle is to run and gun; between the turbo-boosted HEV suit and immense destructive power of the Gauss gun, as far as the HECU soldiers and Xen aliens are concerned, Gordon Freeman is just a death-spraying orange blur. Rogue Point is very, very different. Death is swift, tactics are vital, and even a single enemy can ruin your day. A could-be return to simpler, purer FPS games, Crowbar Collective draws on elements of Payday 2, Tarkov, Rainbow Six Vegas, and even a little Left 4 Dead - but the Half-Life remake dev has its own ideas, too, and now you can see them in action for yourself via Rogue Point’s first ever public playtest.
