The final version of CSS SCI FI 3: Hardwired has been released. CSS SCI FI 3: Hardwired is a single-player mod for Source featuring 42 unique, replayable missions. CSS SCI FI includes an interactive mission hub and full Configuration Utility which players can use to select different styles of gameplay, ranging from extreme realism to gib-tastic gore. Each mission is goal-oriented and non-linear and can be played and replayed using different tactics, options and strategies.

The maps
Missions in CSS SCI FI take place in 18 retail and 24 custom Counter-Strike: Source maps, which are installed intact to the player's CS:S game folder. The maps are unchanged and are fully playable in Counter-Strike: Source. Maps have been carefully selected with the collaboration of established designers, including Bluestrike, Schuzak and d00ds.com.

Replay value
Replay value sets CSS SCI FI apart from other single-player mods. Because the layout of each map is non-linear, there is never only one way to approach a particular target or goal. Players can work through each mission as many times as they like, discovering new features (including hidden secret weapons) and using new options from the configuration utility each time. Resources are distributed differently and enemies change their tactics with every play, making each mission a unique experience. CSS SCI FI brings the unpredictable excitement and high-quality replay value of a multi-player game to the single-player Source audience.

Hell, you uploaded a lot of images! I'm gonna check it out. I figure it must be difficult to have a story with a setup like CSS.

A new version will be out tomorrow (midday GMT Friday). This version has been moved to the Source SDK Base, which removes the need for Half-Life 2 altogether (meaning that the only thing you need to play is Counter-Strike: Source) and improves stability throughout. It will be packaged in an all new installer which has been tested on 64 bit systems, works with UAC, and has no trouble with non-standard Steam install locations. The Configuration Utility has also been streamlined and a few other minor errors fixed.

Get it tomorrow - this will be the final release.

I'm not asking for a complete meld, but the gameplay, weapon selection, and general content of smod tactical would be nice to have in here, and essentially thats the only thing I see that smod tactical lacks: any satisfying amount of self contained single player maps (cause playing through the campaign in smod-t kindof gets boring)
