Back Story v2a

2010 is a year many will remember as being the time that the world stood still. It was the time when as the last of the fossil fuel and oil resources dried out. The world was faced with a dark future as crime and murder began ran rampant. While the rich strove to ensure they're own private fossil fuel supplies , the rest of the world suffered a wretched existence of no transport and unemployment. In the crumbling social infrastructure, a life of crime was the only viable means of supporting a family. Crime escalated throughout the world, with once superpower economies crumbling under the ghastly shortage of every-day necessities. Sordid political activities gave rise of corruption; leaving the country's army defence forces stretched to breaking point.

2013: With crumbling economies worsening and even more outbreaks of crime the UGT (United Governments Treaty) is established to promote the distribution of resources and economical funding throughout the world. The political corruption that had once dominated the socio-economic arena began to subside.

After more than 4 years following the largest economical disaster in world history, the UGT had started to make an impact on the quality of life of many citizens. Yet with crime and murder still at an all time high, a recent UGT summit has voted to create 'something' to control the spread of felony throughout the world.

A team of scientists, doctors and physicists of the highest caliber including your self were selected for this project and sent deep under London... to create a drug code-named "Source".

The year is now 2015 and the drug is ready for human testing; a group of the most violent criminals have been moved into secure lab cells for testing, analysis and evaluation...

Your day starts, TODAY...

Well our silence has been broken, what's new you may ask, quite a bit actually. Firstly our site has been given its due face lift, with a domain change and host move to boot.You can keep up to date with all the goings on at our new domain www.dark-source.com and out new forums at www.forums.dark-source.com

Now for news about the actual mod, we have moved to episodic content the task of making dark source a full mod will take years, and we would really like to get you some playable material so us focusing on episodic content allows us to streamline the development per episode. On the content front we have a series of models from our art department including a amazing set of hands by B11, but no map shots we are keeping them till our next update.

No the mod is still here, its not being worked on doesn't mean its dead or put to rest, the fact everything is still up should indicate this.
