Half-Life 2 Mod Rebellion Announced

Rebellion is going to be a multi player mod for Half-Life 2 that is based on the week long insurrection against the Combine during the Half-Life 2 storyline.

From GameShout (Full Story)

"There will be two gameplay modes implemented in the modification; cooperative and team based multi player. Both modes are based around assault and defense gameplay, where one team defends an objective from the other team. However, in cooperative play, the players will be the guerilla rebellion forces defending against the Combine forces. There will be a constant shortage of ammunition in cooperative mode, so the guerilla forces must use any obstacles and potential traps in the area to their advantage."

"The levels will both be modeled after the existing HL2 campaign levels, as well as original Eastern European architectual design loosely based off of City 17. There will also be original level designs that will somehow relate to the Half-Life 2 universe."

Check out the full story link above, it looks like this mod should be a blast when it's ready. Here at CSGZ we've been considering adding a few more servers to support other games...this one might just make the cut. Looks like it could be awhile before it's ready as the founders are still looking for help - but hey, I bet it's not 5 years like we all waited for Half Life 2.

The mod is currently looking for coders, mappers, and map modelers. If you are interested, contact Merc248, merc248@gmail.com
