Noir is a Half-Life 2 modification that tries to capture style, mystery, action, and suspense into a multiplayer experience. In each map, one person begins as a vampire and the others as hunters. What sets Noir apart, however, is that the map is populated with NPC civilians, with whom the vampire and hunters both blend in. Hunters must find and kill the original vampire before they themselves are killed or all civilians are killed or converted to vampires.
The vampire must attack and convert civilians to vampires without being detected by the hunters. If a vampire attacks a civilian in a crowded area, the other civilians will scream and run, alerting any nearby hunters. Once a civilian has been turned, the vampire has a degree of control over them, allowing him to send them on attack or to blend in, trying to discover the hunters' location or destroy them outright. If a vampire manages to successfully attack a hunter, the hunter becomes a vampire, aiding their once prey.
Noir will also feature several unique gameplay devices utilizing the Source engine's physics for knockdowns, hurling civilians, and specific area damage.
We are in the early stages of development with an ambitious timeline, as this is also being done as part of a class project for Georgia Tech. We are looking for talented developers to join our team, so please visit our website if you are interested!

After a long absence from the public mod scene, Noir is back in action with a new site design. Please come visit the site and take a look at the new layout and get up to date on the latest news. We will be at an internal alpha stage by December 9, and hope to have an enormous media update shortly thereafter with images of the game in action as well as some video footage.
Additionally, if you're in the Atlanta area, you can check us out at the Georgia Tech College of Computing Game Day December 9 from 10 AM-12 PM in the College of Computing building. We will have a booth alongside other Georgia Tech students in the Video Game Design course.

PLLLLLZZZZZ dont die u guys! There are so few good HL2 mods like this here out there, dont die!
(And yes, i play Hidden Source which is one of the good mods that i refer to)
I think it would be better to discuss about the mod and not about the name...
Besides that, Why saying "Noir" is not a good name when some mods are called like a 3 year old boy story (Im not giving names because of the respect for the comunity :P)
Anyway I like the name, and I guess it gives the atmosphere that the mod developers want to impress in their work.
Nice Models, good luck :>
To have true film noir style, this will have to be in black and white. Thankfully this is easy with the Source engine.
yeah, noir is max payne 2, or so they say. to me its sin city. its the kind of thing where characters talk in long drawn out riddles in an enigmatic yet stylish moodset
not vampires
Yeah change the name but i forgot so to say your models look awesome especially the stakesling. Looking forward to something playable.
Noir is an unfitting name. Lifted from a Noir website.
"Noir is not a genre, but rather the mood, style, point-of-view, or tone of a story."
While this can incorparate anything includning Vampires i dont see it as a fitting title. Unless your mod has something to do with France and the word Noir literally meaning black id change the name.
This Mod is gonna be so fun...
Good Luck with it Noir Team.
Noir means dark so its a pretty good name
hi there & greetings from the nosferatu team! Nice to see another team working on a vampire game. Good luck!
