H.A.C.K. mod for Half-Life 2

H.A.C.K.

„Since the year 2049 the world is in a change. Robots are developed for the first time, who support the human beings in their daily work – and who operate more human than before. Their manufacturer, the Global Robot Corporation (G.R.C.), has developed to a worldwide and commanding market leader, after there have been throwbacks through some programming errors in the beginnig. There are no more households without a G.R.C.-Robots.

In one of the main laboratories, they try to teach the robots human
emotions. An event happened there on the 5th august in the year 2061,
which the administration tried to suppress hectically. After a hacker
attack, the biological CPU’s of all robots are controlled only by one
idea: „ Destroy the mankind!“. This command disperses within two days
by an uplink onto all G.R.C.- Robots of the world. This leads to war –
the world of the human beings is faced with ruin.

But in times of highest misery there is one, who can balance the things – a hero!....“

The whole story takes place in the year 2049 on earth. Effective CPU’s
could be manufactured by the efforts of bioinformaticians of
Intelligent Biological Systems and the Global Robot Corporation, which
permit the production of manlike robots. After inaccurate speculations
in shares by IBS, the company was taken over by Global Robot
Corporation. When the fundamental reconstruction and the following
dismissal of the former director and many workmen were completed, the
IBS was integrated. A long time nothing happened, until G.R.C. finished
the research activities and stimulated the production. Shortly after
this the first robots were attached to the worldwide network. G.R.C has
become the worldwide leading producer of housekeeping robots. Fight
robots for military were developed in 2052 for the first time.

In the year 2061, you play the young Richard Hawley, who is in the
training to become a bioinformatician at the G.R.C.. He examines some
research findings when his instructor appears and asks you to get some
documents out of the archive. While searching for the documents in the
archive the alarm sets. You take refuge directly into a shelter. There
you get explained that an accident happened at a test. A person in the
shelter asks you to go to the control centre to find out more about
this accident. When you arrived there you get to know that a hacker
attack happened during the last update of HWR06. New instructions were
coded, as the following: Destruction of mankind! All robots were
connected to the network when the update happened, so all robots are
affected. At a display screen in the control centre the supervisor of
the G.R.C. requests for help.
