Nuclear Dawn Source Mod
It's dubbed as an rts/fps game. Not something I liked at first but now that more info is out it kinda resembles the TF class style......kinda, but not really. It has a spy class that can sneak up on opponents (see here) and also has an engineer type function who can build turrets (here) and other tiny similarities, mostly weapons such as a minigun and grenade launcher. But those are almost standard now anyways.
I've been tracking this mod ever since I first heard about it and stopped around july when their website never got updated and their forums died down. Then out of nowhere I decided to look it up. Man was I amazed. The forums are still not quite as popular as say..FF's and INS's but I have hope for it. It also has new updates that I haven't seen until today. I think the first release might be long away but with these new screen shots and hopeful sounding updates I'll keep tabs on it. check here for their website: http://www.nuclear-dawn.net/ |

Yeah I thought that was cool too. In some games I just want to mess around and have fun killing people without getting raped (think insurgency). I don't quite understand the "RTS" part of it yet as they have been very vague. Hopefully it's like BF2's commander or Insurgency's in a way where they can be in battle yet be "overhead" like we all think of when we think of RTS games. But, we'll see.

If it were like, say, Starcraft, instead of seeing a bunch of Marines you control from the top down, you see your team and you do not actually control them. Where it goes from there, though... iunno.

i think this mod has potential, but i think they need to market themselves carefully, and offer something new that all the other mods dont. remember marketing source mods is hard work!

Not trying to start a flame war here, but didn't they fake some shots with posed character models?
