The Specialists
Half-Life mod | Released Oct 5, 2002
After a very long waiting period, the team behind the creation of the Half-Life mod “The Specialists” is nearing the completion of the latest version of their game, TS 3.0.
For those unfamiliar with The Specialists, it’s an action mod created by Filippo "Morfeo" De Luca and Lorenzo "John_Matrix" Pasini, and built on by a strong willed community. The standards of the First Person Shooter still apply, but are augmented by an intuitive stunt system, slow motion action, hand to hand combat with fists and an array of melee weapons, customizable firearms, and the ability to play from a third-person camera.
The Specialists 3.0 has a number of interesting gamplay modes. It features the traditional Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch, but also contains several unique play types. The One Mode, for example, pits one super-powered player against an onslaught of other players, who try and kill “The One” and take his place. Last Man Standing works like regular DM, but players sit out when they die until only one player remains. And, new to 3.0 is Capture the Briefcase, which puts a new TS-style spin on the old favorite, Capture the Flag.
The new version modifies the way TS’s unique Kung Fu system works, creating the most efficient and exciting hand to hand battles yet. This release also brings weapon balance more into line, and fixes bugs that existed in the past, which people familiar with the older versions will be glad to hear.
The Specialists 3.0 is not just about fixing the old, however. TS 3.0 has a whole host of new features. Two entirely new guns, the Contender G2 and the Skorpion, have been added to the lineup, giving the game more than 30 customizable weapons to choose from. In addition, many of the old maps have been updated with improved textures and layouts, and five brand new maps have been added. This updated map list makes use of new map entities, such as snow and rain, as well as a unique set of particle effects created specifically for use with The Specialists to create visuals effects unheard of in the Half-Life engine.
The Specialists 3.0 will be released on June 22nd. For more information, visit Specialistsmod.net A complete list of updates for 3.0 can be found at Forums.specialistsmod.net

I know, 3.0 may be the last version, but I would love a full-out Single Player campaign for this mod. Just a suggestion, a story would be pretty nice for this mod.
First of all Death: if the developers want to make a source version of The Specialists, they will.
Second: They don't have to do what their fans want. You're not paying them, therefore they do what they want.
dude their not making it in source just adjust to reality slightly will ya? hold the phone....you do it death that way everyone can see how smart u r
stfu already
is ts3 for steam? >>
Relized something they are going to make TS:S when they have the time. When things slow down for the Founder and Devs they will decide to make TS:S just give them time
You're a fine example of a selfish fool. Do you really think that The develoment team will work their asses of just to please you? Oh I think not, they will take as much time as they need regardless of what you think.
Congratulations on the new release TS dev team.
My god Deathskillz, you're....retarded.
Congrats on the new release guys.
Just kidding.
I REMEMBER THIS MOD! MAN I USE TO LOVE IT! heh ill give it another play again
功夫萬歲:)
