Dusk - Apocalyptic Survival RPG - Garry's Mod

[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v225/Aknele245/ca0d201c.jpg[/IMG] Hello there, figured it was about time we introduced this gamemode on facepunch. Dusk is an apocalyptic survival RPG gamemode being made by Chewgum for our new community called Metromod. [B]Story[/B] This gamemode is focused on a future war between two factions, which leaves the earth in disarray after a nuclear war between the two sides. Nuclear fallout leaves those left after the intial detonation with major side-effects. After the large fallout, the sun becomes blocked by radiation clouds and there is no real sunlight for years. Those who struggled to survive on the surface have been forced indoors. The men and women left on the surface begin to act like animals, killing and attacking eachother when the food supplies begin run dry. After decades, the sun returns and those still left on the surface remain in the darkness, afraid of the newly renewed sunlight. During this time, those who were fortunate enough to be taken inside the military bunkers are very much the opposite, men and women begin returning to the surface. [B]Information[/B] This gamemode is very large in its scope from what was first imagined when it began. There is a focus on roleplaying content, but it is also a survival gamemode as well. Players scavenge for resources that are spawn at random on the map, they can then use these resources to craft their items, or charge others to craft items depending on their skill level. Some items require a certain set of skills that are gained either through questing or killing the creatures on the surface. [B]- Day/night system[/B] During the night period players must be careful not to encounter the creatures that come out unless they are properly equipped to take them on. [B]- Radioactive zones [/B] Will cause physical harm unless players are wearing the proper protective gear. [B]- Hunger system that is based upon stamina.[/B] The more stamina you use the hungier you will become. If you have not eaten in days you will not be able to sprint very far or at all. [B]- Items that can be consumed must be cooked at a stove, which are limited.[/B] If you don't have a stove and need to eat you must either find someone who does or take their stove by force. [B]-Blood levels [/B] The players must be aware of their level of blood. Taking hits from creatures can cause you to bleed, which over time will also decrease your health. [B]-Vehicle system[/B] Players can craft a vehicle or find one on the map, but must also be cautious when driving not to damage it which may require them to craft a part to repair. [B]-Equippable items[/B] Gear can also be crafted via the workbench. If you have the required skills and resources you can make yourself items for protection, inventory space or just for looks. [B]-Questing[/B] Done through npcs placed on the map, you will start with a small introduction quest then left to your own decisions as where to go next. [B]-Crafting[/B] Players are able to craft items depending on their current skill selections, and rank in those skills. This gamemode, although it resembles Fallout in parts, is only inspired by it but based on our own storyline so we are not stuck inside the Fallout world. We will try to keep this thread up to date with new information, etc. But do not want to give too much away as of now.

as long there isnt massive grinding ill keep my eye on this

Fallout + DayZ + Every wasteland game ever + typical apocolypse plot. I think you should change it up quite a lot. It's always factions vying for control in the apocolypse, with huge creatures roaming about all mutated and buttfucking all that moves. Come up with an original plot, move away from that stale shite. Your feature list looks great, your story (or lack thereof), however, does not.

The more useless narratives you add, the more it will just confuse people. There are no huge creatures by the way, when I say creatures im referring to the people left above ground who act like animals. Also, edit to fix the screenshots. Sorry.

1 request. change the HUD. it looks to much like Fallout's and Silverlan's for his fallout gm.

An more subtle HUD like [IMG]http://media.moddb.com/cache/images/mods/1/10/9576/thumb_620x2000/2011-09-18_00004.jpg[/IMG] could work much better

Is it going to be private only?

Looks very interesting, will look into this.

[QUOTE=aftokinito;37617780]Is it going to be private only?[/QUOTE] It will be released in the future when I think the time is right. Though if you really want it now you could always add me on steam ($).

Gamemode based on the Metro 2033 world? Neat.

this seems like it has potential. I have only one request for the gamemode though. A looting system. Because it's fun.

I fell in love with the GUI. Is there any way to get it?
