The LanBrew development team is currently working on a multiplayer mod for Half Life 2 codenamed “Project Pike”. Project Pike will incorporate new and unique systems of multiplayer combat in an evolutionary environment. Current gametypes featured in the project are Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch. In Project Pike, whenever players kill opponents, they receives both kill points and experience points. One a player has acquired enough experience points to level, they may choose a new ability, weapon or gadget to add to their arsenal that they spawn with. As the game continues players will chose their upgrades depending on the pace and evolution of the current game. Players will have a wide range of choices when choosing new items including ballistic weapons, energy weapons, improvised weapons, armor, shields, speed enhancers, remote explosives, thermal goggles and cloaking devices. For an in-depth view of Project Pike’s goals, feel free to look at our design document.
