Situation Outbreak is an Orange Box mod about the impending zombie apocalypse. Armed with nothing but a 9mm and a pair of brass knuckles, you must do whatever it takes to survive against the thousands of zombies that used to be your friends and neighbors. The cost of failure is nothing less than your free will. There are no heroes. No single person can save the world and there are not enough bullets to go around. The only thing left to do is to kill the damned, hoping that you don’t end up like them.
AGENDA for this developer preview (chronological):
* New sniper.
* Improved scoreboard.
* New secondary attack for all melee weapons.
* Improved zooming functionality.
* Improved nightvision effects.
* Quick tour of newly submitted contest map zms_sv_remains, by Samuli "SJ" Jääskeläinen.
Thanks for watching and enjoy. =)
It's been a while since I've made one of these. =P ... feel free to follow along with the preview chronologically by reading the description to the top-right of this page.
Thanks and enjoy. =)
Can't start it .. it says Video not found :/
Be patient. That just means the video is processing. I only just uploaded this, you know. =P
Ah hehe sorry x)
same here
Looks like it's fully functional now.
Awesome ! I'm still playing the one thats out .. and now this ! :O It's gonne be awesome ! love the mod ! I think this is the best zombie mod for half-life 2 ;)
1. I think sniper zoom very little. I mean when use optical sight.
2. When player use optical sight, nightvision must be disabled. Realism ^^
3. And make new idle anims for weapon! This is optional but with idle anims it's be looks better.
1) I'll look into doing this. You're right.
2) Good idea. I'll implement that as soon as possible.
3) It already has idle animations. They're quite prominent, too...maybe not in this video, but in general.
Looks great Echo :)
Who deleted my comments? I just said the video looks awesome and remove the FPSBanana hands. Now I'm at the bottom of the comments and not at the top... :(
Not sure. You're positive you submitted it? In any case, we probably won't have the time to replace the hands before release. They have been modified though and will be phased out as soon as possible.
BTW is the map contest over? I am half done with a map I was making for it.
Aye, the deadline was July 15th. You can always give it to us anyway when you're done and we'll see if it's v1.50 material. =)
Looks nice, especially the zoom for the iron sights.....but the night vision was a little to green for me.
nice i hope this version coming very soon
Lookin good
*sniper is awesome, the scope isnt
*secondary fire for melee looks a bit overpowered
*zombies should colide with the player
The scope is much better than before, to be honest. It's also far more realistic. Keep in mind the video was shot in widescreen, so the visible part of the scope will be larger for lower resolutions, though you won't see more of the map or anything even at those lower resolutions.
The secondary fire isn't very overpowered at all. It does only around five damage, and pushes a single zombie back a few feet. If anything it's a bit underpowered, in my opinion.
Zombie NPCs already do collide with the player in v1.50 and in this video. Player zombies do not (not seen in this video).
what I wish for... Sleeves that maches the character and bether push anims. Didnt really see the scope well. but its prolly bether. sniper reminds me of an m14..
Other than that GW!
I really hope you make custom zombie animations
We probably won't have time to do this for v1.50. However, it's on our list and we'll get to it soon enough.
Now the mod is very awesome, good job team !
Looking good :)
I personally think its kind of bad that you don't have to aim in order to even use the sniper rifle (you just point and shoot when there close it looks like)
The secondary attack for the melee weapons looks like it pushes zombies back to far.
Other then the above the map looks good and so does the night vision.
Iron sight zoom function looks good. :-)
In v1.50, aim down the sights (MOUSE2) and press zoom (Z) for that effect. Glad you like it. =)
Whoever did the scope overlay doesn't know about how the scope's optics with the even the least of light you still could see through as if it was brighter.
very nice job Echo ^.^. love the new zoom.
I could die because of this video. in a good way.
This is my first time I ever downloaded this,so I didn't know ANYTHING about this game. Until I saw the videos though. :D
Nice work.
Thanks. =D
Just keep in mind these videos are previews for v1.50, and the latest public version current available is v1.40. v1.50 will be released to the public late August, early September.
amazing sniper models dude AMAZING
and nightvision is a SUPER improvement
love the music
but the game play looks slow and the weapons clunky
would be cool if you could like cut peices of the zombie off like arm head leg foot ect
