Exterminatus warhammer 40,000 mod for Half-Life 2 monthly news update for August 2008. Closed Beta 3 under way. Lots of screenshots added to our moddb profile. Numerous balance improvments, bug fixes and graphical tweaks.

Posted by on

The third wave of the Exterminatus closed beta is under way, the mod having progressed sufficiently (Exteminatus beta testers having only get a new build for every 10 alpha tests).

Bunker Defence Battle for outpust valley

Normally we just pick out 3 or 4 good shots each month to spice up these progress reports. However this month is a bit different. I had so many good shots I just couldn't edit them down to to such a small number. As our moddb gallery was getting a little stale we've chosen to share a whole bagload of action shots from the latest Beta test. Please take look and give us your feedback.

Battle for outpust valley Spawning into battle

Progress this month has been the usual bag of bug fixes, balance tweaks and graphical improvments. I'm hoping the Exterminatus team and our contributors will have made enough progress on our various maps to show you something new next month.

The full title of the mod is "Extermintaus - Rival Species 2", most of our team members are the same as the HL1 mod Rival Species.

Coming along nicely guys, would suggest replacing the HL2 texture of the citadel though, that is the only one that stands out as being truely HL2... keep it up guys, the animations, models and textures are looking good...
