Nosferatu is a teambased multiplayer first person shooter. It involves roundbased (each player has 1 life round just like in the famous game counterstrike) only this game pits vampires vs slayers.

What the hell ? No, we are not dead, far from dead actually, if you want to know what the reason for the rather long news delay was, follow the last couple of news on the nosferatuthegame.com front page (if you haven't done so yet).
Anyway enough excuses time for some content.
We showed you Frog's thug model before but this time he got a sweet skin to go with, made by the man himself. The skeleton, while not really a playermodel is used for the vampire dieing effect and various other things (map props etc.). To further aid your plessure, I included a nice highres render for each model.
But hell yes, I know that model renders are cool and whatever, but I also know that everyone loves new ingame pics, so after the long wait you surely deserve some. As you can see on the pics of the fnp model, the attachment system is working just fine.
Oh wait, what's that ? Can you trust your eyes ? Indeed, the first screenshots of the thug playermodel ingame (btw. the first public ingame playermodel pics)
Btw. we are targeting a closed beta release around x-mas, and right now the ETA looks pretty realistic.
Finally I would like to say thank you to all the fans who are still with us, even after the quite long summer break.

Ive been checking your models over the last few months and Ive been really impressed with the quality. Congrats, really looking forward to this game.
And I just downloaded your sample MP3... I thought it was OK. I would say theres too much distortion (or whatever) on the drums, as they sound really weak...
Anyway, good luck with the game :)
the stunts will sure be awesome :D id love to see the vampires crawl on walls and jump like ninjas, similar to the underworld and blade movies. THAT will be fun. and demo with a great soundtrack will drag people into your mod too.
Alone_In_The_Dark brings up a good point. How will this be resolved?
Well the stunt system is limited to only basic dives and you cant do them all the time (like running and the stamina bar in other games).
The server can disable the stunts via the console, and we are going to see in the betatest how well what feature performs, and if it doesnt work, it will just be abandoned)
only thing that scares me is the stunt system for slayers. That has ended up blowing and making the gameplay gimicky and shatty in every mod that the mechanic has ever reared it's ugly head in.
You have been warned.
I'm having a real hard time waiting. Nosferatur looks like it's going to kick some major rear!
This game is going to be amasing, and the engine is crazy. the mods that will come from it will be amasing :D
a great vampire-fan want's to play this mod quick,
but make it great ;)
Wishing you all the luck with this mod!
" Wow.....Vampire Slayer knockoff? "
btw. its kinda funny that you say so when you are doing yet another zombie mod for halflife2 (i cant count the zombie mods anymore).
Don't get me wrong I wish you luck with your project, that comment just kinda looks funny when you know that information ;)
its free and standalone.
"Wow.....Vampire Slayer knockoff?"
Yes its inspired by Vampire Slayer.
