January 31, 2011 Update Thread - Operation Dead Dawn mod for Battlefield 2

This will be followed up by a long news post showing some screenshots and possibly video later this afternoon or tomorrow, but I thought I'd give a small update here, for those interested.

The bug that has been holding us back for months has finally been found and bypassed. Campaign will still need rebuilding, but we have really started to focus on the multiplayer aspect. I can't go into too much details on it just yet as it is still in a concept phase, but it should add some fun and replayability to the mod. The idea is to allow the player to go looking for objects that he can grab and place to use to help defend against the endless attack of zombies. Currently all we have is explosive barrels and roadblocks. They are destroyable and can also be knocked over if shot by accident. In some cases the zombies can even jump over them, but it slows them down considerably. While grabbing an object you cannot defend yourself from zombies, so you'll need teammates to cover you. We are thinking of making it so that zombies do small amounts of damage to them over time when they run into certain objects, making some objects more reliable than others, but the plan is to make the players want to find a defendable position and hole up there.

We do need more ideas for objects to build fortifications with. So feel free to post your suggestions here. We may not except every idea, but we really want reasonable items that could be used as some sort of barrier or defense.

Well have a good day everyone and expect to hear more either tonight or tomorrow.

We need a new release~

Agreed actually. New release won't have campaign though. We are solely focusing on improving Multiplayer. I need to stop bloody putting off a proper news post explaining what's going on.
