Chaos Theory mod for Far Cry

About the Game
Chaos Theory is a single-player Far Cry modification and a prequel to the Half-Life 2 mod Edge of Chaos. Players take on the role of Ian Burns, an ordinary security guard who finds himself in an extraordinary situation when dinosaurs appear. The story unfolds via dialogue and cutscenes over five chapters, as Ian fights for survival along with the help of a fellow employee named Fernando Vasquez.

Great care has gone into the design of this mod in an attempt to defy standard conventions. While various aspects of the mod are based on common elements, our approach has been anything but ordinary. We’ve done our best to shake things up a bit and put a twist on what you might be expecting. Jurassic Park this isn’t (note: this mod has no affiliation whatsoever with Universal Studios’ intellectual property, nor any other dinosaur-related material).

The game will feature several new characters, ten weapons, two new vehicles, and a handful of new enemies. You can find information on these in their own sections of this website, though only basic info will be given to keep things feeling fresh in-game. Of course, those of you who’ve played Edge of Chaos will have a slight edge as far as knowing the ultimate resolution, but even you won’t know how it all started until you play Chaos Theory.

The Story
Beliefs. They give us the conviction to do anything, no matter how terrible it may seem to others, because we’re convinced our actions are just. But what if you believed that mankind had to be eliminated? Worse still, what if you possessed the ability to achieve your belief? Would your conviction hold true in the face of the ultimate act of genocide?

This is the terrible choice that presents itself to Dr. Sander de Vink. A brilliant geneticist in charge of the Sable Island facility of multinational corporation GenTech Industries, his revolutionary work in genetic memory has the potential for amazing advances in the well being of mankind.

When he makes a remarkable breakthrough, however, de Vink begins to wonder if the well being of mankind is his real concern. In secret, he begins to explore the possibility of far greater uses for his discovery. But for all his speculation, it ultimately remains nothing more than theory. The theories must be tested.

Confining all personnel below ground, de Vink begins several different experiments on the surface. Before the experiments can be finished, though, the personnel begin to grow restless. A lie about a biological outbreak quells them, but not for long. With the situation spinning out of control, de Vink is forced to take more and more extreme measures to protect his secrets.

For security guard Ian Burns and research associate Fernando Vasquez, all that matters is surviving the rapidly deteriorating scenario. Together, they fight to live through this nightmare and ultimately discover the truth. But unbeknownst to both, the answers they seek are wholly beyond belief.
