Role Play Half-Life mod

Role Play: Annihilation is a MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) for Half-Life II. The game takes place in the fictional city of Abalos, set just a few years into the future, it is a world which we feel is not too far away, and not too unrealistic. We felt we wanted to keep the mod as 'real world' as possible and leave out any sci-fi elements which we feel alienate certain players due to their unrealistic nature, in our city you won't find lasers, spaceships or aliens.

Abalos will be a very large city once complete, allowing players the freedom to explore, interact, find friends and enjoy themselves in many different ways. All the time the game will take place against the backdrop of a conflict between several super-corporations and a group of rebels, anti-capitalist fundamentalists, if you will.

RPA will have all the staples of a contemporary MMORPG, including:

Inventory System
Skills/Perks (Based on the GURPS system)
Experience System
Money System
Server Hopping System (Seamless travel between servers)
Persistant Characters and Character Saving
NPC (Non-Player Characters) Interaction
Quests, Missions & Events
All New Player Models
All New Weapons
All New Items
Radius Based Chat (Whisper, Shout and Normal)

We also have a large, multi-stranded storyline, which will slowly pick up the pace as we near the release point, at which time, we are going to let the story be affected by what happens in game, so essentially the players (with some help from us) will lead the story. Any big events will be reported on the Abalos News website, and certain scenarios will be set up to keep the story relatively on track.
