This area of the map will most likely go through multiple re-iterations in development, there are many ideas floating around and we will continue to refine it until we feel it fits as high a standard as possible.

We intend to have it as a photograph towards the end of development; however, at this stage we have not completed that area, and thus, are unable to have a screenshot to use.

Yup, we've made progress, we're keeping it quiet for the moment, so we have quality material for the media release in a couple of months, but you can expect to see some quality progress there.

We'll continue posting updates on ModDB, but some updates we don't deem big enough to post here we will post on the blog, along with some exclusive media. :)

We have plans to show some Gameplay in the upcoming teaser, but we may decide to release some before then, it all depends on the state of development with time. :)

Thanks!

But still heavily WIP.

Thank you, the maps are very early screens, we are not planning on them looking much like that, they will be drastically improved.

Don't worry, we'll make sure it looks the best it possibly can. The Combine Homeworld section of the game will be rigorously tested, refined, and if it does not live up to our high standards we will, if necessary (which it hopefully won't be), completely change it.

But I can assure you that it will be as good as we can possibly make it (technological restrictions etc.).

:)

Thanks for the positive response people. :)

We're working really hard to get you some good media, we hope you like it. We've been doing a lot of back work (story etc.) which is why we haven't been able to release media for so long, but we're delighted to be able to finally release some to you!

We hope you enjoy it!

Interesting use of paint?

Hello,

At the current moment we are do not have a definitive release date, as we are still in the Early stages of development it is difficult to ascertain a specific release period. But we are hoping for a release in the latter part of 2012, this will give us ample time to test and perfect the mod, and it is not a particularly long time (in comparison to other mods).

This mod is not a remake of Half-life 2, but it will fit with canon, and we will do out utmost to make sure that it lives up to the same standard as Half-life 2.

Thank you,
Shaktal

The trailer is just a teaser at the moment, to introduce the mod, and to capture people's attention, we are still in the beginning stages of this mod, and not much material to show. But we are all hard at work, and we will soon have some material to release to the community.

Interestingly enough, when I made the base logo for that I wasn't using the Half-life logo as reference, hence the holes etc.

But now you mention it does look rather similar.

We do have a team of Concept Artists working hard at the moment so that wouldn't be a problem. If your interested post a thread with an example of your work here: Forums.operationlambda.com

There are 2: One is 1280x1024 and the other is 1280x800

We need the following positions filled:

○ A Head Mapper
○ A Head Texture Artist
○ A Head Programmer
○ A Head Animator

The prerequisite for these positions is good prior work that you can demonstrate, the ability to lead a team, and experience with the source engine.

However, even if you feel that you could not lead a team, you can still become part of our team, you will still be fully recognised in partaking with the production of the mod. We still need a much larger team in all areas of development, and we would appreciate any help that we can get.

Thank you,
Shaktal

This is merely a draft cage, it will improve with time, but, we are in need of better modellers.

We just liked the name, Operation Lambda, seeing as lambda is the half-life constant and used in all of the Half-life games. Personally I think that it is a decent name, as much as any mod.

The only real complaint is that it doesn't tell you anything about the mod first, but I think that is a good thing.

Thank you
