Bloodthirst is a multiplayer First-Person modification for Half-Life 2 set in a realistic but dark near future that portrays a battle to the death between a reborn vampire clan and secretive slayer sect. Bloodthirst will make use of the latest technology available in the Source engine to create a very fast paced and visually thrilling team-based action experience.
Bloodthirst isn't your average team-based shooter. Bloodthirst incorporates many revolutionary game elements into the popular FPS mix to create a new breed and style of online gameplay. For example, we've got an RPG-style skill progression system for vampires, who can choose and develop their character's skills as they advance in rank. The multitude of skills to choose means that the player will develop along certain branches of the skill tree and really create a unique character during each game.
We've got stunning slow motion effects that vampires can use in order to literally dodge the incoming hail of bullets. Not only will this allow for intense head-on action but will also create a thrilling visual experience for the players.
We've got an easy to use character visualization system that will allow you to shape the looks of your character by giving you many different choices in clothing, faces and haircuts. This system will allow players to really choose the way they wish to look in-game and will make sure that every player looks unique.
The combat will incorporate many different elements, from stunts the players can use to dodge enemy fire, to more complex melee combat that will be used by both sides. We're building a very realistic and believable urban setting to fully immerse you in the Bloodthirst experience. We'll be populating the levels with many different Non-Player Characters that will react to players to fully generate the best atmosphere possible. These are just a few of the things that will make Bloodthirst a mod to remember, read the full overview and the design doc at www.bloodthirst.org to find out more! :)

dead i beleive
Bloodthirst development has now been frozen.
Dear visitor - the development on the Bloodthirst modification has been frozen and may or may not continue in the future.
This is due to lack of developers and time to continue working on the project. Many thanks to everyone who has contributed
their work and resources into the making of this game, and also the loyal fans who have been following our progress to date
and have contributed their ideas and enthusiasm. We hope that Bloodthirst will still happen in the future, but for the time being
we wish you goodbye.
Stupid newbs... dont take on a mod you cant finish. Everyone has a life (most people anyway) and if you couldnt figure this out, you shouldnt have tried to make a mod
they actually did a lot of work on this mod, the dedicated people anyway - not their fault the team fell apart. the work is still floating around, somewhere.
It's their choice. Even when you don't finish something, you may still learn from it and gain experience. Just because it wasn't finished doesn't mean it was useless to them, so they are free to stop whenever they want.
Maybe an unfinished mod is useless to YOU, but they don't have to care.
I really hope this mod isnt dead, I have love vamps! Please at least let us know how you guys are getting along!
Cool! I though there was no more vampire mods for HL2 (Vampire Slayer times was so great for HL).
The description sounds great =D
Best of luck BT team!
i would of liked to help.. but im super new to modeling n skinning plus im mainly just a concept artist :( ..if u need help beta testing..i will give the best feedback i can.. but i guess u got that covered :) lookin forward to it guys :):)
Yes, as migb said - the early beta will focus primarily on the combat and gameplay dynamics between the two teams, as this is the core of the game and certainly needs to be heavily tweaked before it will get balanced - more weapons/skills and features like customizable looks will be added later.
We're also currently recruiting - so if you can do 2D art, 3D art, coding or level design - do get in touch. We've had some slow development times which are delaying the mod, but we're still working and will also continue work until this baby is done, however we still need your help! So if you have some serious talent and want to make a fast and stylish vampire mod, drop me an e-mail to bloodthirst@bloodthirst.org
I feel compelled to add that the customisable character look probably won't be in the first beta, at least that's the impression I got from the team's comments.
Also, the 'slow-motion' have been severly questioned.
But the good news are that the team have been close to a release for a long time, just needing a coder to do last things - and now they got a coder!
