Yeah they use a manhack as their logo.
With Obsidian Conflict 1.35 coming out soon, I thought I'd do a little post on it.
Obsidian Conflict is a Coop mod for HL2.
That is to say, you need at least HL2 to play it, because practically everything uses stuff from that.
Apart from that, like Garry's mod, you can mount other games to be able to use the stuff from that too.
OC is nothing like GMod.
OC's maps are more scripted, with maps that range from infiltrating Military Bases to doing minigames to CTF to Harvest Moon simulators.
May sound a bit boring, but believe me, it's fun as hell.
Teaser vid for 1.35: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHiBvK7XkKU&feature=player_embedded
Extreme, Shellnut (Myeil), Zephyr, Smith, me and occasionally pepper and spacebear have been playing this in the past,
and we've really enjoyed our time on all those crazy-ass maps.
(there's like 70 good maps out right now)
So, I ask you to take a look at OC once 1.35 comes out.
It'll be alot of fun, and i'll host a server for us to play on.
Who knows, you might meet some new friends :D
(that is to say, if we play without a password for once.)

Hmm, a noob/hacker problem there perhaps. 
I watched the vid link you had in xfire, looks cool! Although for me, I'd have to uninstall a few apps and do some other HD cleaning before I could install another major game like HL2 - as I know that I'd want to get Gmod & some other addons for it too!
I used to have a lot of fun just playing HL1, so I figure 2 would be that much better gameplay - but doesn't 2 still require steam and stuff ???
I mean I have an account, I just didn't like having to wait for the updates every time.

Nah, the password is to keep everyone else out while we can play together.
Gmod is something you gotta buy, you know :D
HL2 still requires steam, but steam now updates by itself, so you won't even notice it updating till it says "Steam needs to restart to update," which doesn't take long.

This mod is pretty much anything! Its so great to either goof off with friends in party type maps or go team versus team in PVP type maps and you can work together to defeat enemy AI in story line type maps!

Even though the votes of 'yes' are divided into different opinions, it seems 50% of the vote is still not interested. Even if you add all the 'yes' votes together, you're still a bit short. Heh, how interesting.

All in all an informative thread! Thanx 'X', at least we have some info on the game and can make a smart choice.
If I can ever settle down and keep from getting distracted by my 'Mr. Fixit' stuff(of course the pittance helps though), I'd like to check it out a bit more! :P

Well for now there is little I can say about the game, I'll say some more when 1.35 comes out.
The main point is; it's always fun to play, even the bitchier maps.
Zeph, you've been there, don't you agree?

I voted yes, and it is a very interesting mod indeed, so I suppose I agree. Though, apparently everyone else doesn't. D:
In short, you guys should just try it. Now.

You guys make it sound better than it really is. It's okay if you have nothing else to play, but other than that, there isn't anything too special about it. There are a few new weapons: a sniper, a modified irifle (HMG), and a couple others. Enemy encounters remain utterly repetitive throughout most of the levels: waves of combine soldiers, combine elites, and hunters. This just doesn't do it for me. I guess you have to be pretty simple minded to enjoy killing the same enemies over and over again, as it does nothing for me.
If you don't start the game with everyone else, sometimes the spawn will make you feel lost and it doesn't give you a path that directs you to the rest of your team. |

First of all, I dunno if I should take you serious anymore, with your whole "look at me I do annoying things and call it trolling" business going on... but anyway.
I understand how you feel, if you haven't played a map while the rest has you'll be confused in no time... Although if you press P you see where everyone is located.
And indeed, there aren't many new guns. (Healer, Alyx gun, Tau cannon, dual uzi's, Sniper Rifle, manhacks in the basic gear and about 20 other guns in the custom gear)
However, your "Just repetetive combines" point is invalid, since you've played one map with us, which was set in a combine base, so you shouldn't expect otherwise.
There's 92 maps.
You've played 1.
Play with us some more before you mark one of the best mods out there as "Not doing anything for you."

It seems you haven't gotten the whole idea of the mod. It isn't just like an ordinary zombie game where you complete missions or survive against a horde of enemies. It's almost like a HL2 version of UT.
You can assemble a team of five epic monsters from a large selection of cards ranging from zombies, elite combines, or hero cards such as Barney or Alyx to duel it out with the other team's deck (something like Yu-gi-Oh with a twist, dunno really). Farming is also pretty cool, since you can tend your crops, feed your animals, and sell stuff for a profit. The money can be used to buy new structures such as a barn, a storage center, or kitchen to cook, or you can purchase fancy gadgets like a teleporter, a portable harvester, or a radio. (like Harvest Moon, really). There's even some mini-games such as fishing, PacMan, racing, or trials, or you could just hang out and talk.
And, I understand why you say killing the same enemies over and over proves that someone is simple minded (which reminds me of most first-person shooter games, but only to some extent), but in this game, that isn't the case. There are fun maps that involve cooperating with your teammates, or battling team versus team to reach a certain goal. Some maps can be humorous (like a hell hole of zombies which we would probably try to trick Extreme into falling in) and some can have a more serious, movie-like atmosphere. It isn't just a horde of zombies bent on tearing you to shreds and eating you alive.
I appreciate that you took the time time try the game, but I have to disagree with your criticism. I'm not saying that your statements were untrue and I'm not taking sides, but you haven't really seen how much fun you can have with friends at the right time and place. I guess we just have very different perspectives, that's all.

Pretty much what I said, but a more crude version. I was about to say it, but I knew Sonix would say something like that, so I just decided "Nah". :)

Now wouldn't that be interesting! to say the least! :P
I don't have a source engine game yet, but this looks RAD - I think the idea of being able to construct your own custom weapon with a script is cool! And will probably get a lot of attention!
The model packs for it look awesome as well!

I know this off-topic, but Zephr, "motovation" in your sig is mispelled. Lol...anyways...
The mod sounds cool. (I haven't installed it yet, but I'm getting to that...)
