VR: Half-Life 2
VR: Half-Life 2 is a Half-Life 2 Total Conversion based on the concept of a dynamic game. One chooses the game length, map type, map length, map items, and
then begins a map. At the end of that map, they are asked again a map type, map length and map items. They then begin the next map. After a series of maps
(a different number depending on the length of the game (Short, Medium, Long) as well as the length of each map (similarly Short, Medium and Long)), they
are presented with an End Boss Map Type. After the end boss, the game is over. The plot of this mod is in the air at the moment but will most likely involve
Gordon being pulled from Stasis by a mysterious force to compete in a series of VR missions.
The gameplay is different each time the game is played. A short game can be played in one evening over about an hour. A medium game could be played in a few
sittings over about six hours. Finally, a long game would be the longest, and could last up to eighteen hours. The maps are based around Half-Life 2 settings,
hence the Half-Life 2 subtitle. Possible map types include City 17, Citadel, Nova Prospekt, and Highway 17. The basic concept is that you make Half-Life 2.
For example, let's say you despise those damn Citadel levels. You can make your Citadel experience short, or you can forego it alltogehter. However, let's
say you really like those Highway 17 levels. You can have a Long Highway 17 level--or, you can make a long game made entirely of Long Highway 17 levels!
Multiplayer co-op is a possibility but as I know no coding, it would be hard.
I also apologize for the crap site. I don't know anything about making my own site, and in fact, this is just a placeholder until I get a Wordpress up along
with the preliminary media release.
Help!
Although I could do this all on my own, it would take a while! In particular, I am looking for Source engine coders that have experience with weapons/items and multiplayer mods. If you are interested, I can be contacted at:
