So I went and played a few online rounds on the limited servers that are available for Gmod 9. Pretty interesting, if only there was more action in the particular server I was playing in. I'd imagine doing something on the lines of spawning a load of monsters and take 'em all on - probably something on the lines of "Rambo-style".
Besides that, I went and played some more of that Median XL mod - created a throwing assassin. I must say, it's pretty difficult in the beginning if you decide to first start off with using the throwing weapon. Personally, for me, it was super easy starting off using the melee THEN switching my skills over to the throwing skills. Oh yeah, that is how you do it - if you play D2 1.13. Although, it does burn one out after they just leveled another assassin (since I just leveled a melee-build assassin).
Speaking of Median XL, BrotherLaz just released the latest patch, 1.Z9 - go and download it, there have been a good bunch of improvements.
Before I finish this up, I'd like to mention a Half-Life mod that is still in the making - and if you own Half-Life, you MUST check this mod out. This mod I'm talking about is "Cry of Fear." It looks just amazing.
