A surviving group; 800 expert marines around the whole globe, are now trying to finish-off the Combine races on Earth, whose now, are in control of the whole planet once, was taken by humans. The group uses the old Powered Combat Vests, Military Equipment, Vehicles, and many other stuff that could be used to battle the Combine. The group is called Phoenix Army, which, represents that someday, the human specimen will rebirth from the ashes. G-Man does not trust Adrian Shephard as much as he trusts Gordon Freeman, now, he presumes a chance must be given to Shephard, to do the... Harder job.
But what if, an intact Osprey Helicopter comes from Xen, causing a massive portal to appear due to its huge amount of xenian material? Frozen in past, revealed in the Portal Storm, well, it seems Shephard has a mission to accomplish; Find Goose 3 Osprey Helicopter, and stop what's causing the tremendous portal storms on the land he is in.

Ever thought about a fog on Half-Life 2 that looks real and acts normally? Ever thought of how would that fog act on the Source Engine? Well, here it is: the Advanced Dynamic Fog, made out of a bunch of floating sprites, the Dynamic Fog, as we prefer to call it, acts just as a real fog; Covers the space it's supposed to, and the most important: Works for pollution, works for a fog you'd see in a rainy forest, or works as a dirty fog, that morphs itself to a dirty mud floor. The most interesting about this "new" fog, is that mappers won't need to add it to the whole map, as the HL2 fog works. They can cover the map with spots they want with fog, and they can leave spots they don't want clean and without fog. Here is an example of it: Img228.imageshack.us
...And another one: Img80.imageshack.us
As you can see, the dynamic fog acts as a real fog, releases dust puffs all around the place, and there is no single need of a HL2 kind of fog on it. It even blends with the skybox. Adding to the mappers an easy way to work with it, the dynamic fog promises to do its job.
Now let's talk about Opposing Force 2 Platinum. I mean, what is that? An expansion pack? Basically. It will include better looking remakes of each Opposing Force 2 map, will basically re-texture every single default Opposing Force 2 Textures and important textures that are seen everywhere on the mod. (Grass, sand, concrete walls, ect) AND, it will add new maps for each chapter (Giving the chapters more action, and the game, more gameplay time). But fans ask: Well, why not just add it together with OpFor 2? Because it's an addon. People will already have to download around 3 GBs. (Compressed 700MBs), and the Platinum is supposed to be around 1 GB. So it's optional. Since it doesn't change anything in the storyline, you won't have to download it if you don't want to. It's just a greater and better looking way to play OpFor 2. Its release date is confirmed to be months after the Opposing Force 2 release, which is expected to be on the year 2010.
I, myself, got help on polishing the maps. Walkermag is helping me while I am going to help him. With new changes up on Outlands, we got a real big difference seen on the map. See example here: Img80.imageshack.us

And, also, we are all sorry for the Barnacle Tech Demo. Some unexpected stuff happened these days. Penguin didn't log in since a week and we are probably looking forward for a new coder. If you have experience in C++ and playing around with Source, and are interested in joining the mod, please, send an email to matheus_graef@hotmail.com
Thanks for supporting the mod with comments and ideas! We promise to make this a great mod! I hope you enjoyed reading the news!

number of new weapons = :D number of new monsters = :D new Opposing Force = :D realese date >:( just kidding, take youre time, better with complete mod than a half done, keep it up, you deserves a noble price :P
:( i'm sad the mod uses hl2 ep2 engine and my comp is so gay games with ep2 engine :( Is it possible that after you finish with the normal ep2 engine one,can you make another one like with hl2 engine?
No we can't.
And we'll possibly use the Left4Dead engine, that means your PC will probably blow. So you better upgrade it for upcoming games.
Yeah, don't worry, it will be included in the mod. It just has to be re-coded into the game now.
