So, we have the return of our fast, jumpy and annoying alien: The Snark.
First of all, there isn't a real reason for this to appear in the storyline, the snarks are vanished. So we decided to put the snark as a secret weapon (Just like the Incendiary Grenades). They will be found in the very beggining (Xen) in hidden caves, and also, big chapters like Outlands, Forestal Ambush and Underground Complex. On the Forestal Ambush chapter, we have huge maps, that means a bunch of secrets and Easter Eggs on one single map. Player will be able to carry 20 at a time, since it's a secret weapon.
We also confirmed the Shock Roach weapon, you'll be able to use it if you put a Shocktrooper down. The Shock Roach will jump at you, and, you'll get it as a weapon.
Here is a list of all the weapons the team has decided (yet):
Pipe Wrench
Glock 17
Magnum 357
Desert Eagle (Equipped with laser sight)
MP5 EOD
MP5K
AR2 (Pulserifle)
Shotgun
Sniper Rifle (A Sako TRG-41)
Crossbow
Frag Grenade
Incendiary Grenade
Spore Launcher
Barnacle
Snarks
RPG
SLAM
APM (Anti Personnel Mine)
ShockRoach
Knife
Yeah, the list is so big I'm not sure if I forgot about any weapon. But well, that's it.
We would also like to say we are migrating to the Ep. 2 engine. Since we don't have a release date planned yet (We're thinking about 2010), the HL2 Graphics will get overused and old. So Ep. 2 Graphics should be pretty helpful.
Well! Keep tuned for more media, feel free to contact me by sending an email: matheus_graef@hotmail.com. Thanks for the support and feedback of all you fans!
Thats fantastic news the gunlist + the fact that you will use EP2 engine.. Everyone can still play your mod all what people need to do is to download the source EP2 game code in steam under tools.
Lets just hope we will see your mod hopefully in 2010.
23-down
hm, i don't think, it will be finished in 2010. at the end 2009 it will be finished :)
We still have to code a bunch of things, including a big muscular zombie many of Sven-Coop or OF1 players know.
O.o Much weapons ... great!
this is all lookin great and looks of weapons :D
Good news
Sounds great.
The AR2 and MP7 could use better skins/models all together. I had to search to see what a Sako TRG looked like. Instead of using another Heckler and Koch weapon that Valve seems to like prefer. Most people seem prefer bolt action sniper rifles.
