Background In 2129, the world undercame a great change. A large corporation, named Xones, created something that can only be described as a "virtual world", this is an understatement. It required a 50 story building to house the proccessing power to control the elements of the Xone. DSL could no longer support enough bandwidth for users to connect and live in this world. XDSL was born. Between the years of 2130 and now, the world was built. Now, it is possible to do anything in the virtual world, the world is growing dumb, and the planet isnt cared for. Welcome to 2150. A group of elite programmers and hackers have become bored of the Xone.

So we're currently ironing out the bugs ready for PA4, which will add scoring.

The weapon HUD selection menus are looking awsome, with a cool sidewards scroll effect, also implemented is the flags and the flag capture points. You have to pick up a flag, and take it to the capture point, where it will jump into it like the plugs in HL2.
