Suicide Survival 1.1
Dec 12, 2008 Full Version 41 commentsThis is release 1.1 of the HL2 mod Suicide Survival.
Suicide Survival is a Mod of Half-Life 2 Deathmatch.
There are two teams so you either play as Survivor or as Suicider.
The goal for Survivors is to stay alive (duh!) and to spot the Suiciders before they can get close enough of to you. They have the book “Gardening for Beginners” by Barbara Bush as a self-defence weapon.
The goal for Suiciders is to sneak up close enough to the Survivors so you can blow yourself up. Suiciders play as shrubberies in a map full of shrubberies thus blending in with the enviroment. If they dont move you dont know which one is being played by a player.
The game doesnt have a goal currently other then being simple team deathmatch. However its planned to transform it into a round-based survival with a time limit.

First of all, Suicide Survival is not dead, its only resting (just like the parrot). And whenever I check the servers I always see a few people playing which really suprises me. I figured Suicide Survival would be hip for a few months and then dissappear into the great void of the internet. Alas I was wrong which really makes me happy.
Second of all and mostly being the reason why I layed down the development of Suicide Survival for a while are some personal matters: I finished my Bachelor in Game Design this summer and I'm still trying to get a job in the game industry. Second I'm working on my final project again in order to submit it to the IGF and Unity Awards. If you want to check it out you can visit the website at: ww.doppelscope.com The website is only in German for now but there will be a playable and English version of it as well in the near future. In short this has my main priority followed by creating my portfolio and getting a job. However I will try to get a new version of Suicide Survival out before christmas this year.
Last but not least Michael Kuzel aka Eccentricity from the official forums has made a pretty awesome and well designed map. Its called SS_Allan and even features a new and unique game mode. Taken straight from the read me:
Check out the thread from Eccentricity in the forums or simply download the map (21 MB) and try it out.

"First of all, Suicide Survival is not dead, its only resting (just like the parrot)"
great joke :)
couldnt it rather be made as like suiciders look like civilians and the survivors look different?
then the suiciders would fit in between infenite NPCs who also move around.
that reminds me on matrix1 :D
yes could be possible, but by doing this you would immediately reference to real suicide bombers. Something not greatly encouraged by most people.
NO! this need to be its own mod."Within The Matrix" =D
Survivor is boring and most of them cheat because of this. Suiciders are often heavily team stacked to the point of survivors all leaving, and you very rarely ever see more than 5 people on at one time.
Hey everybody. Starting in about 5 minutes, there will be a group of me and my friend's playing. Join if you want.
This reminds me of the Counter-Strike Hide and Seek servers.
Source mods won't work with the free copy of HL2DM because they need the Source SDK which the free version doesn't have.
Source mods will work with this hl2:DM. this is not some ripoff its just like buying it because it comes right from steam and the Source SDK,Source SDK Base and Source SDK Bace-Orange Box is in your tools tab in steam. it will auto install Source SDK Base or Source SDK Bace-Orange Box if needed.
Thanks for pointing this out. This is great news! :)
