Firearms 2
There has been a great deal of speculation as to what Firearms 2 is, what it is about, why it has formed, who it was formed by, and what a gamer can expect from it. This project was from its conception formed because a dedicated few firmly believed that they could lead the name of Firearms to become something more that it previously was.
The legacy of Firearms seemed to always be something along the right line but just beyond the reach of brilliance. It is this undertone that Firearms always possessed. Firearms was always about a game wide open to various styles of play and it was this distinctive quality that set the game apart from the competition at the time of its conception. As one can expect of such a game that helped pioneer the mod community, Firearms introduced game features that now come standard in most retail games you can buy today. Fire-modes, artillery, and proning. All these were innovations brought on through Firearms. In its prime Firearms was considered to be the second or third most popular Half Life mod. This team believes we can take Firearms to the next level and bring Half-life 2 gamers an experience they have long since been waiting for.
The FA2 Team is comprised of a group of steadfast individuals who want to do everything in their power to create a mod that looks well, plays well, and most importantly, brings back the pure element of fun we all had in the past. You can expect lots of action, accurate weapons, fire-modes, fast player movement, explosives, fully configurable classes, and of course, tons of weapons.
Firearms 2 is being made by the old community of Firearms for the new world of gaming. We are in the business of making a game we love and we will stop at nothing to see our collective vision through. Consider Firearms reborn effective immediately. The days of 6 month releases, lack of website updates, no communication between team members and the community, hatred of clanners and competitive play, and general lack of caring and professionalism to be over!!
We invite everyone to join us on our forums and post actively to what YOU would like to see in FA2. We promise that community input will be considered. However, this game will be structured around Firearms version 2.5 and 3.0. A combination of the two really so please keep that in mind when suggesting items for this game. We look forward to everyone playing this game when it is done and to bringing everyone the game they have been waiting for, Firearms 2!
The Firearms 2 Team.

Hey Firearms fans, come join the FA2 Steam community group!

This is the Best out of the 2, I must say, I can't wait until release. Soooo.... let's get the ball rolling, eh. Great work FA2 Team... Great Work!!
Take a look over at Firearms2mod.com for our latest update guys and don't forget to stop by #Firearms2 on Gamesurge.
Cheers
Cool!
Check out Firearms2mod.com for our latest media update which includes nine weapon models and three maps.
If you mean passing off css as their own game, then sure they're getting more work done. Getting loyal Firearms fans excited when they really don't have what you're expecting... that just isn't fair to any of you.
all i know is that firearms source is getting more work done
chop chop, if you want to beat their release
Does it really matter if someone stole someone elses mod etc. etc. blah blah whine whine...??
Now we have two mods which are effectively battling it out to become the best Firearms mod for the Source engine.
This could be seen as a good thing for the mod community because I would think both mod teams would be strongly encouraged to give their mod the very best. We will just have to wait and see which team produces the better mod, regardless of who thought of it first etc. etc. *all the BS about stealing this* etc. etc, when they are both finally released. And I am eagerly awaiting that moment. :D
To Jonneh:
Please feel free to delete my previous post. My words were unfounded as I do not know you personally. Those words staring back at me remond me of how hot-headed and irrational I can be. They make me appear to be a 100% idiot when I'm truly only about 17% idiot (although my wife's opinion may push that upwards of 50%). These personal attacks had nothing to do with the issue with which I took objection... an issue that is several months old and does not impact me directly.
To everyone else:
While I do not whole-heartedly agree with some of the actions taken by the Firearms 2 team, they are nonetheless developing a quality mod with their players interests at heart. That alone is a goal worthy of the admiration of the Firearms community. More teams could take a cue from this dedication to satisfying their players.
In closing, I would like to apologize for my previous rants, personal attacks, and slander of a team (and Jonneh specifically) that is committed to its growing fan base. You don't have to agree with one's politics to have respect for them as a person. Jonneh's handling of this barrage of words is worthy of my respect. The bottom line is this. Mod teams exist to make games. Great mod teams make great games that fill the gap in what you wanted from a game and what you actually got. I now believe that Jonneh will lead his team to the status of greatness. If his personal character is any indication of his talent, we're all in for a treat. With any luck, I will now have redeemed myself back to a figure closer to 17% idiot. :)
