It's been five months since you last heard from us in July and we've been hard at work in the meantime. We're still working diligently towards our first true beta 1.0 release, but a lot has already changed since 0.5. A lot of the focus has been on making multiplayer work and improving the Half-Life 2 code to run better as an RTS online. The scripting language Python has been fully implemented, exposing much of the game code and allowing us to add units, buildings, and abilities through scripts rather than in C++.
Much has also been done to the game to improve latency issues, navigation, and AI, including a brand new NPC system that runs much more smoothly online and allows full control over how all of the units behave. HL2: Wars also now features a traditional RTS game lobby and team colors, which you can see in the screenshots below:
Focus over the coming months will slowly shift from proof of concept and engine optimization to actual gameplay. Both of our releases so far have not been intended to be seen as representative of the final HL2: Wars gameplay, but rather as proof of concept that we're turning HL2 into an RTS. The game is in the process of being fully redesigned to replace the lackluster gameplay, with the help of suggestions from our dedicated forum community.
So, what are you going to see from us in the next few months? We'll continue working on Beta 1.0, and keep you updated on that, and in the meantime we plan on releasing a small multiplayer demo. Nothing special, just to show off our game lobby, new NPC system, and multiplayer capabilities. That should be ready in the next month or two.
In the meantime, add us to your ModWatch if you haven't already and show your support by voting for us in this year's ModDB awards! 2009 is going to be a big year for Half-Life 2: Wars.

you should put first thing at the top so people see it that
NEEDS hl2 ep2
The top of the page says in bold text "Requires Orange Box to Play". I'm not going to make it red and in 80pt font just to accommodate the tards who refuse to scan 2 paragraphs of text to find out whether they can play it or not.
I think it was just a suggestion man, no need to be calling people retards
if people can't be bothered to read the minium requirements then its their own fault, not ours.
im not sure if this has already been done/asked
but can there be a skirmish mode?
i cant access it if it already is there...
There will be a skirmish mode. There is not really enough strategic AI in the current public release for it to be included, but skirmish mode will definitely be seen in the future. Check out the gamelobby screenshot in the media tab.
One of the best HL2 mods out there.
Functionality to for individual unit control in FPS mode is already being worked into the new build. Mostly for fun, not really a gameplay mechanic.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa
