Some of you might have already read some of it in the other section however this post is rather to get some constructive critisism.

About The Mod:
Deep in an Indian jungle, first a twitch then a small branch is heard crackling in the distance. It's game time! An uncertain amount of assassins, special ops, hit men and overall scum is dropped in via air. There is only one way out, and that is the last man standing! From slicing someones throat to sniping an enemy almost a mile away through thick jungle terrain. This is Project Xcon. The prize you ask? Some seek power, some seek the thrill and some even go to see how far they can push themselves. And then there is the greedy ones that usually end up being slaughtered first.

Project Xcon is an aim to get back to all out death match play without having to rely too much on team play, since a lot of the time if your team sucks that whole experience sucks. It's an all out battle royal for the best of the best. Having the ability to sneak up to someone from behind ( if you’re good enough ) and using your knife to slice his / her throat. Or sniping or even all out close quarters combat. Whatever you fancy this mod will have it all. The main objective is to be the "last man standing" Everyone hunts everyone until the round ends and the winner is declared. The primary objective is to be a silent assassin, but it will be complimented by being able to run through with an M4 and just blasting anyone that comes in your way. Or perhaps having a sniper rifle hiding to take that idiots head off that’s running around with the M4. Someone just ducked behind cover to reload quick? You’re the silent one, sneak up and cut his throat...

So far about 75% of the coding is complete, and we are now working on the weapons and UI. Other than that the gameplay types are done. Positional damage has been added, aswell as the ability to execute someone by slicing their throat (backstab attack with knife) The knife being the CQD® Mark V ATAC designed by Mastersofdefense.com for those of you that want to read up on the knife.

So far the weapons that will be used are as follows
Startup Weapons
Colt Gold Cup Trophy - 8 Bullet Clip Version. (.45ACP)

Weapons found in maps:
Side Arms
HK USP Expert - 12 Bullet Clip Version (.45ACP) - Decided on this version to maybe later add the ability to dual wield the pistols.
Colt Gold Cup Trophy - Description above.

SMG
Currently considering weapons for this, and would like to know what you guys would want to use to blow each other up.

Rifles
M40A1 Sniper Rifle - We will have this sniper rifle use a 6 Magazine cartridge with a fairly slow reload, to make it more difficult to snipe. You either hit and kill or you miss and die.

Other rifles are also under discussion and we would like some feedback on this.

Utilities / Other
So far we are also considering adding kevlar and a bunch of other stuff to make it more intresting but please make sure you understand the theme before asking for Kevlar Helmet / Body suit at startup. We will be adding medkits most likely in games or rather stim packs to regenerate a small amount of your life.

We would realy appreciate some good feedback if you want to watch our mod etc please go here : Moddb.com

NOTE : This mod has only been in development for about a week total and I have not yet had a lot of time to add pictures and media type items, so you guys could see the mod in action. However we will try to put out an alpha release within the next few weeks.
