The Corporation mod for Half-Life 2

I started work on the first level this morning, adding detail here and there, its looking good, and should be looking at completion soon. Sgtjman started programming this morning, and the mod is starting to take shape and allready features gizmos which are not included in half life 2.

I am hoping to make some new hands soon, though i have little modeling experience to work with. If your a modeler looking for a job, please apply, using 3ds max 7 and 8 is prefered.

Yea this mod is actually progressing more than some of you may think. I'm currently working on some city scenes (building mostly) and I should have an update soon. But we could really use a good modeler also. As for Christmas presents, I'm looking forward to an X850 and more memory so that should make me pretty usefull then as well. Expect map updates from me soon.

Well, since I did join the mod team, might as well show something. I did the silencer skin, but I havent gotten around to do much else due to school, life, and work.

Check the images section

you wont see this mod die. as long as sgtjman doesnt give in neither will i. i took a look at the new site the other day, which i must say is looking remarkable. I can now animate. so if a set of hands gets modeled then i can safely say there will be new hands in the mod. oh and christmas is two days away. i hope santa christmas brings me something usefull this year, like a new compuet for instance.

Hello, i'm here and signed up. I barely started the CAWS, when I have some free time this weekend I will definetly work on it... as long as Metal Slug 4&5 dont distract me :P

i just hope they finish it, not a lot of yer mods are actually released anymore. keep at it! :)

plz add a irc channel :)

Your news item aroused a bit of interest in me for this Mod, but having read the sory summary I'm not so intrigued.

It's OK to write about current events, and in many ways inescapable as a writer, but I think this story relies too heavily on the perceived threat of terrorism. There's no way that Terrorism could bring about a country locking down, because that cripples its economy which harms a much greater number of people than Terrorist attacks.

The notion of a lockdown goes completely against China's political interests as a developing nation and future economic world power, so I have strong doubts that they would take such action, not to mention the fact that they are not the target of anti-capitalist attack, so wouldn't find themselves in such a position.

Similarly Russia does not rank high in the "Western states to victimise in order to cripple the capitalist ideal" list, so their involvement is also dubitable.

Then there's the USA, which could feasibly survive a lockdown if it was prepared for it, but this would probably involve a mass-culling of the population to get the numbers down to survivable limits.

I'd also warn against openly perpetuating the classification of the terrorists. Your PR man accepts that these Muslims represent a minority shunned by the majority for their acts of terrorism, but you haven't asked yourselves what effect your labelling will have on the perceptions of your game's playerbase. Do you need to mention that they are Muslims? Does doing this have any effect other than reinforcing the untruth that this is a religious war?

I prefer games that make the player think in order to progress in the game and, better still leave the player with bigger questions to ponder over. The basic scenario could achieve these elements but at the moment the specifics let it down, in my opinion.

Sounds and looks great. And another HL2 mod going to my "Mod Watching" list (which is getting pretty big now). :P
