In the Tutorial submode the player is guided through the game's basics and then enters a match against four computer-controlled enemies.Ammunition is not replenished on respawn and is therefore limited for most of the game's weapons, additional ammunition for many weapons can be obtained from the Special Magazine, which is itself also limited.įour submodes are available in the Battle Mode: Each map contains several resupply cabinets which provide infinite supply of primary ammunition (bullets for the SMG and Pulse Rifle). Available weapons depend on the character and faction, additional equipment can be obtained by leveling up or through the in-game shop. Each character can be either male or female and belong to Combine or Resistance faction, however unlike the Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, in which Combine and Resistance forces are matched against each other, Survivor allows both teams to have players of any faction.Įach player can only use the weapons they start with, no other weapons can be picked up during the game. Friendly fire is disabled, but explosions and some of the weapons deal damage to both teams.įive playable characters with different stats and equipment are available: Ranger, Soldier, Sniper, Engineer and Medic.
