A Ménage à trois of Interviews from Valve developers of TF2 have been published on Game Informer recently. Its a lot to read all at once but you gotta check out some of the cool pictures posted.
Preview - List of Classes with descriptions and game play commentary.
Nuclear Dawn is my favorite mod in development at the moment and luckily it's still alive and kicking as show in the screen below. I was a little worried that it was vaporware but luckily this makes up for all of my doubts.
A few weeks ago, we posted some news about The Decimation and I am happy to see the LANCLAN guys keeping up with their promise to update and they have announced that the public version will be release this month. They are staying true with a tradition to release the game on April 24th, the same day they have released projects every year since 2002 (except last year they started a 2 year project).
It looks like their public release is going to be slightly different (easier to play) version with a single cvar doing all the work to differentiate the competitive version. Both modes will be continuously refined for another year making maps, weapons, textures, new character models, new animations and tons of other new features until they find the perfect shade of grey.
Their going to be releasing more videos and news every week so keep an eye out on their main site for countdown to download and their moddb site for updates.
For all you people who cant run HL2 games well on your current computer or laptops, your going to want to read this.
"
Well, the idea of a Project Timeless revival came to my mind -
and here we go.
I think there is still a big community out there, that is interested in
half-life 1 mods, as long as good gameplay and fun are given.So we are preparing a new release, based on a slightly modified version of the old beta 2.0, right now.
This version will be probably known as Beta 2.1."
Project
Timeless is a multiplayer MOD for Half-Life 1 and drives the engine to
its' limits with large outdoor areas, particle effects, high quality
models. You'll find a variety of
complex and tactical maps with varied gameplay. Featuring unique
campaign systems like small campaigns with multiple missions and areas
in one map. You'll find a huge variety of weapons and equipment to
choose from and thrilling gameplay by using the stealth generator (like in Alien vs Predator) or the movement sensor. Intelligent ranking and score system where players receive score for
fullfilling mission-targets, ranking is displayed on the player model. The campaign system offers mappers large possibilities in creating and
designing their maps. The choice and combination of mission-targets is
hardly restricted. You can implement a hardly limited variety of
gameplay styles.
short description of the PT HUD.
Stay tuned for a release of 2.1 within the next few days. Well try to host this one for the PT team when the new Beta comes out.
Starting out as a 2 man game development team moddinging CoD and mapping for BF1942, the LANCLAN is about to release an interesting mod based on the HL2 engine called Revolt: The Decimation . They have been involved in closed beta testing for some time now balancing for fierce competitive play and adding eye candy. It sounds like they are close to releasing this one to open BETA.
