Colony : 5 will be a HL2 mod that relies heavily on teamwork, strong leaders, and crackshot individuals. The mod gameplay style's listed as RTS, but that's really for the leader of each side. The other will be be playing the game FPS still. There will be two sides (pretty obviously) Humans and Aliens. The leader of each side will give orders to their teammates to build structures required for tech upgrades that will aid them in annihilating the other.

Some planned featuers:
Top view and Starcraft style HUD for the commder/leaders
Structure building and a resource system
Using as many of the HL2 features to their fullest extent
Interactive buildings - i want this game to push machines to the limit
Drivable Vehicles
Unique guns and devistating alien attacks
Outdoor environment - i.e. realistic weather effects
Completely Modular Base Management (you'll see what we mean)
Addictive gameplay

So imagine Starcraft or Warcraft... only moreso multiplayer, way more teamwork, and you can run around as the marine or an ultralisk

First off, i'd like to welcome another team member, blitzkrieg, who's going to help with weapons design and skinning. So please give him a hug and throw big women past him cuz i hear he's into the plus sizes...

anyway... so more news, it's just continuing work on models, hopefully we'll have something to show early next year... and with the official release of HL2, we've been able to get a very good first hand view of what to expect of the engine (like how silky smooth it can be on 2 year old hardware with lots of eye candy!) and the things we can do with it.

Please check back often, as the old rusty gears of pro bono development are turning

This mod, like 95% of the other ambitious mods listed on this website, looks dead. R.I.P.

Yet its putrifying corpse still stinks up the database.

The admins REALLY need to do some cleansweeping. They'll find the database relatively sparse, or at least a lot less crowded when they finish.
