The Specialists - Definition and Overview

The Specialists is a multiplayer mod for the popular first-person shooter computer game Half-Life. It is currently at version 2.1, released on June 27, 2004.

Gameplay

The Specialists is based on a generic action movie. It contains over 20 weapons and many powerups. The object of the Deathmatch game mode is to get as many frags as you possibly can.
