AT 30,000 FEET... you are almost 6 miles (9.7 km's) above sea level. The human body is not made for these conditions. Temperatures can plummet to -60F (-51C), the brain is starved for oxygen and each step is a new experience in pure agony. It's difficult to breathe. It's difficult to think. It's difficult to move. And you still have to endure another 444 feet (0.14 km's) to get to the peak. So much for the good news. STORYLINE: SURVIVE the SUMMIT ...The rebels are losing the battle against the strider onslaught that keeps growing. To help turn the tide of war you need to destroy the source of the Striders. That source is at the summit of what the rebels call, StriderMountain. There is only one way to get into the mountain geography and it's extremely dangerous terrain. The danger proves to be too much and you are forced way off target. Now, you must fight your way through the Combine Mountain Base Camp because it's the only entry to the mountain...

Report RSS New Music and Sneak Peek!

The StriderMountain team has partnered with a talented composer to create original music tracks. Also, check out the sneak peek preview screens from the newest map #8 "CREVASSE"

First in a series, newly created, fresh, different...according to Wiktionary, define the word "original." Since everyone on the StriderMountain team are also musicians who believe that music plays a vital role in a game, we thought it would be special to add some original music content to the mod. But, with the criteria that the music must be world class and game worthy...

...the SM team is pleased to announce a partnership with composer David Mason. We're very excited to have such a talent join our team. And, although starting somewhat late in the mapping process, David will be adding some original music to the mod. He is currently playing the first eight maps in order to get a feel for what it's like to survive the summit of StriderMountain and here is what he has to say:

"I'm honored to be asked to work with such a talented, and dedicated team. I'm looking forward to pushing myself, and hope to bring something great to the project." Some of David's music and the first StriderMountain sample "Reload" can be found at his website, www.stainofmind.com
