ExOps Project mod for Half-Life 2

Hi people! Not much work has been done map wise, but we still have a few to show off:

City-17: 06.

A Conscript base located somewhere in the Wasteland.

That's all for the maps (sorry)

What we have been more focused on is developping the story elements more and thinking of our own designs and redesigns for enemies and weapons.

Here are a few concept arts Ushankov made:

"Conscript soldiers are recruited men from the City-17's population, pressed into service by the Combine. Conscript soldiers are fiercely loyal to the Combine, their allegiance unwavering despite their forced recruitment. Their loyalty is born from fear, indoctrination, and the promise of rewards for compliance... They fulfill various roles within the Combine's military, from frontline infantry to support functions like logistics and maintenance on the wasteland. The primary purpose of Conscript soldiers is to safeguard City 17 from external threats while asserting control over the surrounding wasteland."

"Conscript Squad Leaders are distinguished by their iconic berets and cheap Combine cybernetic implants: their right eyes replaced by a rudimentary Combine cyber implant. Their cybernetic implants grant them heightened visual acuity and targeting capabilities, allowing for precise aiming and reconnaissance on the battlefield. Furthermore, the implants serve as a direct communication conduit with the Combine Overwatch, enabling Squad Leaders to receive real-time orders and tactical directives without the need for traditional communication devices."

"Civil Protection units represent a distinct echelon within the Combine's hierarchy, comprised of former Conscript soldiers who have earned a reprieve from frontline duty. These individuals, having demonstrated loyalty and effectiveness in their previous roles, are rewarded with the relative comfort and privilege afforded by membership in Civil Protection. Stationed within City 17, Civil Protection units serve as the enforcers of the Combine's rule in urban environments, tasked with maintaining order, suppressing dissent, and ensuring the smooth operation of daily life under Combine control."

That's all for the concept arts

One last thing before y'all go, we are currently looking for new team members! We are looking for coders, modellers and mappers who are intrested in working on the project with us (Since we ain't gonna go far with only 2 person actively working on this mod)
