HL2 Mod you would like to see

[Magicpants]

Mod you would most like to see under the Half-Life 2 / Source engine

Something to pass a little more time until we find out about the HL2 release.
I was interested in what mods people think would most 'benefit' from the new engines, i would assume any mod that makes good use of physics would apply here, i've added a few and i'll add any other popular ones later.
The mod i would be most excited about being ported to the Source engine would have to be Natural Selection.
The Half-Life engine really does not do this game justice, in Source you could have skulks realistically crawling across the ceiling and walls, bullets bouncing of the onos' hard exo-armor and the light shimmering off the bloody talons of a fade as they swing through the air toward a marines head. The green glow of a marines ammo count racing down to zero as he unloads into an approaching alien, the fragments of a vent bouncing down a corridor as a skulk bursts from it in an attempt to ambush an approaching squad...

I would like to have a Strider Ranch. You work for the evil guys and Striders are like horses/giant ostrichs with guns

You could even ride them and shoot from their viewpoint.

You also could raise/breed new striders with advanced skills on your farm... you get money/food from killing scientists and marines.

I would love that :dork:

Anyone remember Final Fantasy 7 Chocobo breeding? I loved that, too

Evils evil creatures in a cell shaded 3D action game... That's what I want to see. My idea for the name is "Evil Fluffy Bunnies From Hell: The Evil Onslaught Of Evilness And Lesser Evil Hamsters".

 

[Inflatable]

CS 2 offcourse..

 

[-JeZ-]

Not played NS much to be honest mate. Would be nice too see a remake of all the popular MODs. I personally hope CS2 will learn from CS's mistake. No fookin' riot shields please! IMO they are silly additions. Esp since they haven't fixed the bug which lets you shoot and have the protection of the shiled at the same time :/

 

[Magicpants]

Yeees... Not really an existing mod is it
My bad probably didn't make that bit too clear. hehe err interesting idea anyways....

 

[rec]

While I voted for TeamFortress, I'd really love to see a port or sequel of Natural Selection on the Source engine - They could do some incredible things.

1. Day of defeat-I'm a HUGE WW2 buff. And what better way to simulate warfare than the source engine's excellent moddability and physics?
2. Natural Selection-I never played the HL version but the HL2 version I WILL try out. It looks like an excellent mod.
3. Counter-Strike-No explanation needed even though I'm not that big of a CS fan.

I voted DOD even though I'm looking forward to any mod based on 20th century warfare.

 

[Pol]

runaway train for hl2

 

[FriScho]

nevermind

 

[Nightmare]

I voted for DoD but i wouldnt mind seeing a War of the Worlds mod. It would probley suck ass though

 

[Tyl3n0L]

Counter-Strike2
but i think Natural Selection2 will rock on Source... MUCH MUCH MUCH better than NS1...

I Don't think C-S2 will change alot... except the graphic, but i think valve want to stay with the same base... I'm pretty sure De_dust, De_dust2, Aztec etc... will be back in c-s2... And i don't think they going to add a lot of tanks / plane / new guns etc... Valve want to stay with the "magic" of C-S...

 

[Gunner]

Natural Selection II

 

[boblemoche0]

The specialists II... its too kewl with all the moves and stuff! think about it with the source+havok thingie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

too nice

?? The CS modders work for valve now....

 

[.5c0ut-WHoR3.]

The cs modders were bought by valve, well so i recall.

 

[snoggle]

I want a mod featuring lawn gnomes and shotguns.

 

[SLH]

As i've said before: I want an egg and spoon race mod, utalizing the physics engine to it's fullest.

 

[Phenom]

Considering the beauty of the graphics and (hopefully) some smooth multiplayer netcode:

A tactical FPS sim, a la Raven Shield

Or an OBJECTIVE based FPS WITH respawn, a la Global Operations.

Those would both be amazing, assuming obviously that the frame rates would be manageable.

my mod, Half-Life Party

 

[Kekojones]

I choose Day of Defeat as the mod Ill like the most to see on the new HL2 Source engine....DOD is the best HL MOD ever imo. The introduction of new grafics, vehicles and better physics will make this MOD a religious experience. It would be plain realistic and tactical, not like that battlefield arcade crap.

Im a WW2 fan so having online playing options like Enemy Territory (Arcade), Call of Duty (Arcade) and DOD2 (Realistic) will keep me entertained for years to come.

TF2 would be cool too but Valve have already a plan for release this mod.

CS2?...well....I getting feed up of Terrorist-Counterterrorist theme. Then again a CS game with better grafics and decent physics could be kind of entertaining, still I hate waiting for round to finnish.

Heh, heabcrab skeet shooting sounds like tons of fun.

 

[DjBourgeoisie]

natural selection all the way. Not only is the the highest quality mod out, but the most creative/entertaining mod ever made for hl imo.

 

[ApocalypseNow]

Destruction Derby or Grand Theft auto 3 or anything with cars/APC running a muck!!!

 

[VoodooGod]

I voted for Nat. Selection, but I would really like to see a new original mod. I can't think of any right now though.

As far as Nat. Selection goes, I hate it as it is, but I played it for a good month or so. I sepecifically told people that it is too fast paced for the HL 1 engine because it can't make the players move fluently enough. I think that if they redid some of the ideas giving marines more options, and then improved the fluency of the characters, then I would definately play it.

On the other hand, CStrike would look kick ass!!!!!

 

[Phenom]

It sure would be awesome to have a re-make of Global Operations..

What an awesome game, made on such a crappy (cough) LITHTECH (cough) engine..

Source + Global Ops = GRAVY

 

[DOOManiac]

I want to see something entirely new, something that's not a rehash of other mods done for HL, Quake 3, or etc.

(And not another damn WW2 mod)
