NO CONTACT
(Half-life2 Modification, for the Orange Box Engine)
Dated - October 2009, if all goes to plan.
The creators of "Team Planet Earth", "Wanted" and "Unjustified Purpose" now present; "No Contact".
What is this mod about?
The mod will be both Single-player & Multi-player, we will start with the Single-player part first.
You're living in a god forsaken city, rejected by the outside world. The only way out is across the Angel's Wing, a bridge connecting the city to the mainland.
One unforgettable night, at roughly 04:32, a scheduled flight to Australia crashes into the bridge.
You wake up and from your window you withness the sight of a large fire in the distance accompanied by screams and sirens.
You get up and decide to go and investigate, but that is the idea shared by many.
Upon arriving at the at the bridge, you see your only way out of the city in ashes.
Debris, bodies and fires litter the surrounding area. You think how a simple Airliner could have caused so much damage but in the midst of the chaos you simply ignore it.
No Supplies.
No Organisation.
No Help.
No Contact.
Survive? How the hell can I do that?
While exploring the city, you discover how basic human instinct to survive can destroy any civilisation.
Like everyone else, you learn to fight for your life.
You won't be taking on the city alone, helping people will win you some of their trust and various weaponry is littered around the city.
Don't trust ANYONE. Not your friends, not your family, not even yourself at times. All that will save you is luck.
Noone trusts each other anymore? What do you mean?
We mean the police aren’t protecting the people anymore, the medical staff from hospitals are looting more than helping people and the fire brigade are causing more fires than stopping them.
They are corrupt, hardly working together anymore, stealing from people and killing innocents. Emerging gangsters are trying to acquire more innocent people who they can take advantage of and use for protectiong from fellow gangsters. Normal people are trying their best to live with others who don't wish to fight, but surviving that way won't work for long and they will eventually resort to violence too. You will meet many of these different people in battle, fighting against and alongside you.
What kind of features are there going to be?
We will have many features such as a food and thirst system; a working cellphone, backpack feature, randomly located NPC’s, a new HUD, Cars with a fuel feature, weapons and some other features that we'll avoid telling so you will have some surprises.
What sort of weapons will I be fighting with?
I’m glad you asked that.
There is a going to be a big selection of guns; from SMG’s to Rifles, even to homemade flamethrowers and military anti-tank RPGs. You can also take on your enemies with a variety of melee weapons such as baseball bats and hammers. If all goes well, there's almost a guarantee there'll be the weapon for you.
When will Media get released?
The media will get released when we feel that we've achieved enough to show you and still have surprises left over.
Are you sure you're going to be able to finish this by October?
If we keep working hard, we'll get alot of the mod done by then.
You aren't going to have a Team Fortress 2 style mod are you?
Don't worry, this mod will be as realistic as we can make it, without it being less fun because you died when shot once in the stomach.
Can i join the Team?
If you think you have the skills needed, give us an email at poss_en@hotmail.com (we haven't got a website yet...) and show us some of your best work.
