The entity duplication thing with HL:DM Source is actually the worst thing, like I used to play it with my brother, and our matches on Stalkyard would devolve into me hiding getting stuck inside a crate because the "door"(?) would duplicate and prevent me from leaving, then immediately being obliterated with SMG grenades. Needless to say, when I convinced him to use the original Half-Life for deathmatch, the experience became a _lot_ more enjoyable.

I like the idea that Gordon was so late to the experiment the train left without him so he needed to grab an HEV suit from somewhere first and then just *walk* on monorails all the way to the testing lab

[@KneppaH]

Yeah this was the first time in 25 years I saw somebody walk the train intro level. pretty neat.

[@UnknownRustt]

My god the tutorial levels are a work of art. Fascinating to see it struggle to load all of this; it’s like the game equivalent of moving all your furniture slightly to the left

[@MagnetismR]

Because of the nature of the ported GoldSrc maps, the training does not rely on completing specific actions to advance. You can complete the entire hazard course without ever gaining the HEV suit, because it's not connected to the door, the trigger around it is. The delay is so the HEV plays its introductory voice lines.

[@CallOfCutie69]

I remember something similar in ancient CS builds with half-removed Half-Life. I would get pistol in the starting train, doors would not open in path of the train, or would open not fully, the assets were distorted, maps wouldn’t load. I think it was before Half-Life 2 times. Now I wonder if it was the result of something similar, copying and pasting maps. Or maybe my memory is unreliable and this is exactly what I saw two decades ago. Now that I see door opening not fully at 6:47, I finally have a confirmation this was not a fever dream. I remember getting squashed by train that tried going through it, and the train getting stopped by these half-open doors. But I somehow remember having a USP there and Half-Life mixing with CS assets. So perhaps there was something similar, but with Counter-Strike that had Half-Life assets removed from it for saving space, but then having HL maps loaded into it. Because I remember this abomination being on gldSrc.

[@paulevans9307]

1:50 - if memory serves, loading a single player map in multiplayer did the same thing in the WON release. I think there's something to to with map change triggers and multiplayer that means it doesn't work (imagine the server changing level in a multiplayer game while people are not in the transition area - for a deathmatch game, it would make sense to just ignore that behaviour rather than work around it)

By the way, HLDMS was never originally this bad on launch. All the updates to the source engine over time have well and truly broke this game.
