Demo Update Article news

Hello it’s Kajlo here!

It has been 7 months since the last article and a lot has happened since then! I’m still working on the mod as a whole thing but I think I will be releasing newversions chapter by chapter. Just in case I pushed the mod release date to 2024 now, more time will be needed for polishing

All chapters that will appear

Chapter 1

The Awoken is going to be an introduction to this mod, Adrian Shephard gets out of G-Man’s stasis and is presented to the occupied Earth.

Chapter 2

New Enemy will give a better vision of the uprising; Rebels fighting the combine, Striders destroying buildings and more of that. One of the main characters from the previous storyline Ryan will explain his plan on escaping the city, both him and the player needs to get to the Citadel’s Control Room. (A scene that was in Director’s Cut)

Chapter 3

Unknown Infectionis where the game will start to showcase more of new content, you’ll end up in an infested dead zone of City 17, an area that will straight give you Ravenholm vibes. Player will have to turn on the power of a train that will let Ryan and Shephard leave City 17, just around the corner the main antagonist of the mod will be introduced.

Chapter 4

Alien Reptile is a chapter where you will meet Rockie, a Race – X survivor who has negative opinion about Shephard but will have to team up with him, the Player will end up fighting with a more upgraded version of the Strider.

Chapter 5

Overwatch Reinforcement. This part of the game will be set far from City 17 and the Player will have to sneak inside a combine fortress that is being managed by the main antagonist of the mod, a lot of plot mystery is going to be revealed at that part.

Chapter 6

Endgame. Not much to say about it, you will be fighting the final boss and get the final cutscene.

New rewritten story will be still improved further.
