W e all know this project always was community friendly and personally, I always like to get the aproval of potential players before add/remove/edit a feature.
Now we decided to take a step further, knowing that there's cool feedback, and leave the people themselves design a mission! Yes, you would get a chance to get that awesome idea you had in mind and make it real, in this project.
How? Here's how it goes:
1) Grab a copy of the bare bones so you can test by yourself mod's features. You need to know what tools you have in mind and what's possible to do.
2) Text here your cool ideas for a mission! Here's a quick guideline:
- Must have some background. Like... someone is going to bomb whatever because or god knows what reason.
- Must have an objective. Like... find and locate the bomb.
- Winter, so it's a cold location.
People who played Condition Zero or SWAT series would be familiarized with this.
3) We will pick the most awesome idea and make it happen. Don't be shy, most of the features the mod has is because I picked them up from comments. So, write whatever!
4) Follow the forums to see how your idea is being developed!
As a quick note, this is not a lack of ideas, is just we want you get involved :)
Let the mind's drift begin!
Got this off of wiki it might help
SWAT duties include:
* Hostage rescue
* Riot control
* Perimeter security against snipers for visiting dignitaries
* Providing superior assault firepower in certain situations, e.g. barricaded suspects
* Rescuing officers or citizens endangered by gunfire
* Counter-terrorist operations
* Resolving high-risk situations with a minimum loss of life, injury, or property damage
* Resolving situations involving barricaded subjects (specifically covered by a Hostage Barricade Team)
* Stabilizing situations involving high-risk suicidal subjects
* Providing assistance on arrest warrants and search warrants
* Providing additional security at special events
* Special stealth operations with silenced or suppressed weapons
first thought was that you ran out of ideas lol... but fair enough, always good to get the community involved =]
just a quick question, is this only limited to a single mission, or can it extend to a full blown campaign?
Nope, he said a mission not a campaign.
A mission. Could be splitted into different maps, but that's our worry :P
I have an idea for a mission :
Briefing : Fred, we have another difficult mission for you. An Agency Agent went in a secret unknown terrorist base in the North of Canada, the agent was supposed to infiltrate the base, get some secret documents about their group and the operation they are planning. We have lost contact with the agent 10 hours ago. We need to see what happened.
About the base, it's an underground modern base so get ready to expect a lot of modern intruder detection system. The base communicate with the outdoor through a communication system, you have to hack it if you don't want a massive number of enemies on you. Don't worry, the base is so deep that if you have to use the force, the bad guys outside will not hear you.
Your objectives Fred are to disable the communication system, infiltrate the base, discover what happen to our agent and bring him back here alive if he is.
It's a critical mission and only you can do it. Good luck.
Mission : The mission begin near a terrorist base in the north of the Canada at night, the player has to sneak past the enemies, disable the communication system and find a way to get in the base (that is an infiltration part).
Once he is in the base, he must find the agent (primary objective and infiltration part). When he found the agent, a "cut-scene" play, this "cut-scene" shows Fred free the agent but get spotted by a camera (end of infiltration part). The agent tell him that there is a nuclear missile which target "The Agency".
A secondary objective appear, the player must find the nuclear missile and cancel the launch at all cost. Then the last objective would be escape with a helicopter or a plane.
What's the deadline?
4 weeks.
oh noes.... again?
lag!
You could add a function for the player which can choose which aiming he has.IronSight or Only ZOOMIN.
-Sry for my bad english :P
The problem with only zooming is that gives a sort of unrealistic, I mean, this gives an "effect" that Fred Thompson has "Power eyes" and he can zoom to the infinite. I prefer the current Iron-Sight system.
By "Only zooming", you mean zooming like HL's Crossbow ?
Yes,but maybe Fred has perhaps not to use his eyes, but his head?
Well , actually i mean the Revamped look...
recren el asesinato de obama vin laden jaja seguro q alguno de ustedes se le cruzo por la mente esa idea xD
How about this.
A terrorist group has taken over a city and they are saying they will drop bombs on different countries in the middle east. The player has been told to find a undercover soldier who will give the player a bomb to put in the group's base. Once the player drops the bomb they will have to escape and save civilians. Once they reach the helicopter the player must activate the bomb and escape with the civilians.
So, how dose that sound?
The problem with this is the civilians, because we don't have models for them :(
It's a pity, considering everything else we have :(
aww crap
Everything sounds very cool, keep it up!
