if i/someone was to make a pre disaster mod, what do you think it should be about?
such as story, level settings etc

definitely not half-life... duhh.... you couldn't add monsters other than humans... and you couldn't have gordon either... and puttin it in black mesa would also be stupid...

why? because it wouldn't make sense in the half-life storyline...

you could have gordon.
It's not like the resonance cascade was on his first day of work.

or perhaps: "the day Gordon's experiment went RIGHT!"
where the player does the big experiment and it all goes fine....

There's potential in that idea, NineTnine, if you make it humourous. Have scientists saying "I'm sure this wasn't supposed to work so well...I mean...uhh...good job Gordon!"

Then have aliumz tele in anyways cuz the g-man got pissed his plan was foiled (by the like a group of teenagers and their dog who end up gibbing...)....

just throwing out an idea....

The teleportation experiment goes right, and there is no resonance cascade, so your promoted, and are assigned to the xen survey/exploration team.

a little more interesting than boring old facility job.

Or you trip and fall into the machine and get teleported to an alternate-reality universe where everything is made out of pizza (or something to the effect).
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-23 02:12:59 UTC Post #239046
mmmm pizza. An interesting idea, but that could get old though, what kind of enemies do you face in a pizza world?

Cows who don't want to be turned into low-grade beef. They want their rump to go to classy restaurants, so they're on strike.

"I'm sure this wasn't supposed to work so well...I mean...uhh...good job Gordon!"
LOL!

I quite like that idea.

Phone Rings
Scientist: Hello

Phone: mumbling

Scientist: Oh hello Dr. Breen. What can I do for you?

Phone: mumble

Scientist: Yes the experiment was a complete success!

Phone: quizzical mumble?

Scientist: Erm...no? There were definatly no big green explosions. Was there supposed to be???

Phone: Erratic loud mumbles

Scientist: turns away from phone to other scientists He doesn't sound very happy.

Or you're alternate reality makes everything opposite. You're working on Xen as a scientist, and the Vort Scientists send you into, the "Test Pool" to conduct the experiment. All goes wrong and humans transport in! With a variety of enemies ranging from hippies to drug lords! :aghast:

Don't forget Jack Thompson.

Nonono, that's Bush. Jack Thompson has crazy-ass big headedness and shoots beams and teleports out of his brain (or lack of).

Make the scientist model the zombie monster, than make a secret underground boxing tournament in Black mesa. Lulz ensue.

TWHL's ideas.

All about quantity, not so much quality. :heart:
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-24 21:06:39 UTC Post #239123
We should make a community mod out of this.
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-24 21:12:15 UTC Post #239124
I don't see it going further than an idea, and maybe a tiny bit of work.
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 02:09:44 UTC Post #239129
Same. This idea needs a lot of work, but it's possible.

The problem is that pre-disaster black mesa was probably not very exciting. It was probably a lot of paper work, some experimentation, and maybe a little math?

If you could come up with something to change that, a small event, then yeah. It would require new enemies and things though.
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 02:13:20 UTC Post #239130
Or like a secret underground thing that no one really knows about. tests on aliens extracted from Xen (because we know that there seemed to be some aliens already in captivity after the Resonance Cascade). Blah blah blah...

well, a game doesnt have to have guns to be fun.

well...what about.....um, oblivion. that doesnt have guns and thats fun.
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 19:18:23 UTC Post #239169
It has bows and arrows, and fireballs. That's close enough.
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 19:25:01 UTC Post #239170
ok ok.
how bout...... The Sims 2? or......
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 21:12:32 UTC Post #239172
Ok, whatever. The point is, this is the goldsource engine. There are guns. Lots of them.

That's what it's for!
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 23:20:03 UTC Post #239173
Sonic

Mario

Tetris

The list goes on and on...
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 23:25:06 UTC Post #239174
Portal.... kinda.
Need for Speed... THPS was fun too.
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-25 23:53:58 UTC Post #239175
ok those games were all fun, i think the point was that to make a pre-disaster mod fun, it would take a lot of work!
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-26 00:38:34 UTC Post #239176
You'd probably have to make it more a puzzle based game.
Posted 16 years ago2007-11-26 18:47:25 UTC Post #239219
yes. lots and lots of box pushing
