Packed - guns 'n' ammunition

[gestur]

Well, lets start of introducing myself...

My real name is Erik and I'm working on this mod for hl2 called "Packed - guns and ammunition".

The goal for this mod is to be a fast paced tactical shooter, if you would like to know more you can visit the packed website here:

I'm looking for all kinds of people, ranging from coordinators to ... yeah right about anything.

Given the flood of tac sims on the mod "market," what will make yours unique?

I can't tell you much about gameplay just yet sorry, but we are currently working on game-modes and so fourth and we will try to make it unique in every aspect possible.
However, you are right, there is a flood of tac sims. Making one that is both unique and fun to play will be... hard... to say the least.

But I'm not satisfied with the current tac sims, and I think that packed might offer that little extra to spice things up... hopefully.

Can I ask who "we" is? Do you already have a partial team? How about some simple gameplay descriptions? Especially given the truckload of tac sims, getting people to join won't be easy without some sort of hook.

My team got a new member, that's why it's now "we" instead of me

Give me a a few days and I'll post some extensive gameplay info, the reasons for not posting anything now is:

We are still working on the concept, before going into the gameplay part we would like to have the concept ready.
I can however reveal some concept/gameplay information:

Some sort of capture the flag mode will probably be present.

Teams might consist of different countries and different weapons for each country.

No money involved, class selection, each class already equiped. (Just a thought)

Tactical military/special weapons.

Problably round based gameplay.

Player hostage taking situations. (no team starts out with hostages, they will be taken during gameplay, enemies might be taken as hostages? capture the VIP?).

As real weapon damage effects as possible.

Ever tried to fire a 7.62 caliber weapon in auto mode standing up? You wont hit anything but air. (No crosshair when running with weapon?)

Action! fast paced!



There you have it, some gamplay... I don't think any of them were that original but they will be, I'll post something in a few days when we have a real list ready. These were just a few examples, not the real deal.

Congratulations! You just summed up every other tac sim in development.

I know, but it was you who asked for it

The unique/innovative parts won't be revealed until later on, since I'm not in a hurry getting a dev-team...
