website created by our very own Yorick.
There's been a big reshuffle and lots of
new content added so check it all out!
Warriors of the Apocalypse is yet another Multiplayer mod that displays some
very promising features. However, WOTA is shaping up to be one of the best
looking Half-Life 2 mods both in a visual and gameplay aspect. Rather than just
being a straight up shooter, WOTA incorporates teamwork through completing
assigned objectives. These assigned objectives will require players to use their
mind as well their trigger finger. Not only will there be challenging
objectives, but there will also be several unique playable factions. Now that
you have read what makes WOTA such a wonderful mod that everyone should be on
the look out for, lets progress with the interview. [Read More...]
One of the most interesting of the coming horde of Half-Life 2 mods is undoubtedly
the Jurassic Rage mod. It pits two teams of human commandos against each other in
various tropical paradises, competing for command points and completing objectives.
But the big twist is that these maps are populated by an entire zoo’s-worth of prehistoric
monsters. Various dinosaurs, predatory or otherwise, will prowl the maps, causing
the best-laid plans of both teams to go very wrong, very quickly. [Read More...]
Not for long, by the looks of things. We take a look at one of the most promising
and heavyweight Half-Life 2 mods as I meet with the leader of Warpig Studios, John
Beck, over a luncheon of liquefied space-food. [Read More...]
While movement is the most important skill to master in order to win at
DM, the next most important thing is to be able to use your weapons effectively. [Read More...]
This is my attempt at writing a guide for beginners of HL2DM (Half-Life
2 Death Match). I am by no means the number one expert, although I’ve
been playing First-Person Shooters for several years, and have managed
to hold the number one position on a server or two that uses a ranking
system like Mani Admin. [Read More...]
Halflife2.net: The Last Great War is written on your website as "a realistic
first person shooter based the most anticipated game of 2004, Half-Life II." Judging
from this statement, will The Last Great War be set in the Half-Life universe or
will it just be run on the Source engine? [Read More...]
Havok physics is at the heart of the eagerly awaited Half Life 2 from Valve Software.
Physics gameplay is considered one of the key new departures in the sequel and is
an integral part of the game experience. [Read More...]
Halflife2.net: How long has your team been working on Fortress Forever?
Schtoofa: The original team was assembled about November 2003... it pretty
much had billdoor, mirv, defrag and rebo at the time. Sev and eat joined around
the same time but they were all waiting for HL2 to come out, and then later the
SDK so they could mainly just work on ironing down concepts.
Halflife2.net: Let me first just say, thanks for granting me this
interview, I’ve had a personal interest in this mod for a long time. This is
something I’m keen to ask: Is this just Adrenaline Gamer: Source?
Precizion: No. Something we have been keen to state from the start
is that AG2 will be a new game with new things to learn. None of the design
team really have any interest in just remaking AG with better graphics. After
all, some of us have been playing that game for around six years now, and it
really is time for something different.
We will take advantage of some of the great features AG had to offer though,
such as the comprehensive set of match options which will be used and improved
upon in AG2.
