All names for the cut/leaked material were coined by the players. While "Half-Life 2 Beta" is often used for convenience, it is somewhat incorrect, since the leak files cover several stages of the game's development, spanning over years, and since no information about their different development stagesis known except the engine build number. "The l...
While the playable game leaked in 2003 is quite similar to the retail product and already heavily trimmed, this earlier period of development of the game shows a quite different style. At this point, City 17 was an American East Coast-like city based on Washington, D.C., with many large skyscrapers, and had a very basic, blocky FPS design. It was m...
Half-Life 2 was merely a rumor until a strong first impression at E3 in May 2003 launched it into high levels of hype, where it won several awards for Best in Show. It was scheduled for a release date on September 30, 2003, but was delayed. The pushing back of Half-Life 2's release date came in the wake of the cracking of Valve's internal network, ...
Playable game
The files leaked in 2003 consist of a playable game available in two versions, the "anon-hl2" leak and the "Russian" leak, both of which slightly different from the other. The "Russian" copy of the leak is based on the original 100 part leak "anon-hl2". One of the few notable differences between the two is the presence of an installer, while the "anon-hl2" leak consists of 100 .rar files. The "anon-hl2" beta contains at its root a .txt file last edited in October 2003, with these words: The w...
WC mappack
Other files consisted of a group of several zip files nicknamed "WC mappack" (WC stands for Worldcraft, the early name for the Hammer level editor), containing around 1300 incomplete VMF maps (VMF stands for "Valve Map File") of the very early chapters already cut in the playable game mentioned above (most of them are repeated and almost identical), demo/prototype maps and the maps from the playable version, spread in around 60 folders named by the developers who worked on them, taking up aro...
Weapons
Throughout the development of Half-Life 2, its impressive arsenal of weaponry varied considerably and it contained several different weapons than when the game was first made public, weapons that were later cut before the final release. It has been suggested that the bulk of the weapons were cut due to the fact that they were too similar to one another, as the AK-47 served a very similar role to the AR2, and the OICW the same to the SMG1, and that it would not be very believable to hold more...
Vehicles
1. AirEx Truck(as a static prop) 2. Digger 3. Jet Ski 4. Israeli Merkava (used by the conscripts) 5. VAB APC (also used by the conscripts) 6. Van Car
Friendly fire
Half-Life 2 originally featured friendly fire, as with Half-Life. Valvefound this to be annoying to playtesters, as they would often accidentally kill their team-mates, so it was changed so the weapons do no damage to friendlies.
Although most of these concepts were cut from the final game, many of them eventually made it into future releases.
Since the release of the retail game in 2004, many attempts have been made to restore the original storyline by making modsbased on the leaked files. Some mods never went further than rough development stages and some fixes, some are still in development. Some players have fixed several maps without including them in a full game. These can be found...

The best way to make the Beta Better is to install fan made patches. The Downloads section of the Hl2-beta.ru site and the Valve Cut Content Discord are great places to find fixed maps, models and asset replacements/recreations for the Beta. The Mega Patches from Hl2-beta.ru are also excellent.
