Tour of Duty

Half-Life mod |

Tour of Duty is a realistic team play mod for Halflife by Valve Software. The game is set at the height of the Vietnam war, between 1967 and 1973 allowing you to relive the conflict fighting either for the United States Marine Corp (USMC) or the Viet Cong (VC)/North Vietnamese Army (NVA). The mod features realistic weapons of the period, and a number of gameplay styles including control point capture, demolition or bombing missions, capture the flag/radio/codemachine and escape and evasion are the currently coded styles. We are also planning on adding rescue missions, where you'll rescue a general or famous figure. We've added support for some vehicles that players can ride into the action in, with guns 'ablazing', right now, we have a huey that players ride to the bomb target zone, and have plans for PT boats in future levels.

The developers (and probably a few of our beta testers) will be playing a match against the 101st AB clan.

It will be a closed match, however, we will have a HLTV proxy running on the Jolt USA server for spectators to watch if they so wish. Come out and watch us get slaugh... err I mean kick some butt :D.

Details:
Date: January 17th, 2002 (Next Friday)
Time: 9:00 PM EST (GMT -5)

We didn't quite get finished setting up HLTV, however, the following instructions let you use it (to be fixed in the next version):

  • Start TOD
  • Select Multiplayer, and then look for the blank spot between Internet Games and Lan games (to the side it says "spectate internet games", click it
  • Click 'add server', and enter in the following:
    193.218.99.206:27020 (note the port number)
  • When the spectator connects, bring down your console, and type spec_mode 3 (1-5 are valid choices here I think), that should put you in first person spectator mode, anyway, you can then press 'duck' to get your normal spectator menus

We'll probably play for an hour or so, so drop by and spectate this fun promotional event. We welcome invitations to play matches with other clans or leagues, contact a team member to make arrangements (2 weeks notice is preferred).
