"Make Peace or Die"

“Talon 1-5” is a story-driven single-player and co-op mod that aims to combine realism and combat tactics with a science-fiction environment. It will put players into a war to end all wars where they will have to think in order to survive. Taking inspiration from history as well as imagination, we will strive to tell a story about the infantrymen and women of the early 22nd century and how they must persevere for survival and victory like all the Marines who preceded them.

The story centers around an 12-man special forces squad, codenamed “Talon” attached to the 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment of the United States Marine Corps. As our world once again sinks into war, Talon 1-5 becomes part of the Battalion Landing Team for 31st MEU. As a special operations unit, Talon 1-5 are tasked with hunting down and detaining an influential revolutionary leader, as he may hold the key to ending the conflict before them. This classified mission will underlie their more immediate objectives in participation of the North American and Asiatic theaters of the third great war.

A first person shooter at its core, “Talon 1-5” will incorporate gameplay that is both believable and tactical. However, tactical is not necessarily synonymous with slow. Players will have to work with their squad-mates to survive some of the most frantic and hectic situations that the war will throw at them.

Hey everybody!

A lot of amazing things are happening behind the scenes over at Bohica, many of which we can't really go into too much detail about at the moment, but suffice it to say, we have some nice media to show you, until we're ready to roll out the red carpet...

First up is a WIP model for the PLA Gunship by Linus "Nova" Hoffman.

 


 

Next we have a US Army sidearm, the FA-6 by Predator, and our futuristic version of a Humvee, the LAV-22 MIEV by Zanrok!

 


 

Stay tuned for some exciting new developments on the horizon! I wish I could spill them all now, but you'll just have to sit tight!

Hey, if you guys keep on the UT3 engine, are you going to port this mod to the PS3? I'll probably buy the PC version anyway, but I thought it would be cool to know anyway.

I can't believe this didn't make it to the Top 100 mods. I'm so sad.

The new media is beautiful!

Because people actually vote for mods that have stuff in game. It's not vote for the best models for a mod : ) Although the media here is topnotch.

I heard it was a good engine, and I do some stuff in and around UE3 but nothing like a full fledged mod. It can't be that much worse than CryEngine, which personally I haven't tried yet, although I have it.

Its probably got some of the worst workflow I've ever seen in an engine in my life. Everything is so stupid and convoluted... the editor uses nearly a gig of RAM with a map loaded (CryEngine 2 uses around 750 and the maps are much much larger), the compiling for scripts is annoying... the entire thing just sucks to mod.

Yeah, but what you gotta also take into account is how friendly a given engine is to mod... and UT3 is not friendly at all. Its got some terrible 'features' that would frustrate all but anyone who is a fanboy of the engine.

I really really hope not. UE3 is a well optimized engine. High settings will be available to more people.

If it's true they're moving im glad I have Crysis as well.
