My Idea For HL:2 MultiPlayer

[Incomitatum]

After looking at some screenshots for half life over at hlfallout.net I got some ideas.

HL MP should be KINDA like CS, but you should either be able to choose combine or resistance soldiers, and fight in certain areas of City 17 unique to Multiplayer (MP and SP maps should be different). It's kinda like playing the war that is going on behind the scenes while Gordon is trying to save the day. For those ninnies who would play resistance (I love Storm Troopers too); they should allow an in game facial modifyer, so that before someone spawns they can play with their avatars facial parameters that are build into the game. Afterall, Source has been said to already do this for the random mooks it spawns.

I am sure there could be different gametypes... Racing like MAD MAX STYLE, capture and hold, DeathMAtch. It could be a game IN a game... wait... that is what MP is supposed to be.

:monkee: Chango means monkey!!! :monkee:

BTW I realize that this is not what it WILL be, but It would be a swell Idea.

Not a bad thought. Really like the idea.

a couple of other people had that idea.
I think it would be fun though.

i like the resistance vs combine idea, i would like a sort of RTCW style class based objective thing, i think it would fit well.

Yes, I think this is a really good idea, although not new as people have thought of resistance vs combine ideas before.

But still I think Valve have missed a big oportunity to make a groundbreaking multiplayer, instead letting the modding community do it, which will be most likely less quality and in half a year or so for a good version.

I think that sounds quite alright. It defiantely would have potencial to be pretty fun. There probably would be a lot of cap and hold style maps for sure. But it would defiantely fit better as a HL2 MP insted of CS.

this sounds like my idea in the "hl2 leak had mp" thread

If it has driveable striders, I'll be happy. But I don't know what the resistance could have to balance the gameplay... maybe some genetically engineered super biker Gordons from the '97 build could come with suped-up manipulators and hurl vortigaunts at them....

or maybe just some buggies.... heheh ! :cheers:
