Sadly we haven't any news from him or the group... Down since two weeks now. Steam say that his account has been connected yesterday. I don't know what happen :o
I dont like the HUD
I love this gamemode :D. My friend introduced it to me yesterday, and I played for about 3-4 hours straight.
Some things I recodmend, are:
Make the baddies spawning location noticed. I went 4 games straight were I barracaded the wrong door, and placed my turret to face there, only to have them spawn behind there.
Make the upgrade credits more useful. Like, If you upgrade the turret, have it to more damage or fire faster. And if you upgrade a barricade piece, make it more stronger. That's what I thought they did in the first place.
And MAYBE reduce the income of credits to the medic. Seriously, I had over 200 credits at one point from healing my team. Seem's like a little over-kill to me.
Edit: Oh, and have a 1 min build time in between each wave. Would fix my first problem. I could re-locate the turret.
I like the VGUI, very pretty.
It looks pretty good so far, keep up the good work
hud would look better without that stupid gray box around everything
Oh, and please upload the gamemode to garrysmod.org. I just want to play on solo, because the official server is just a tad too crowded for me. And, More servers might have it :D.
edit: If you do upgrade the turret and such, will it affect its fire rate and damage? last night someone told me that, but idk if its true because i don't notice a difference.
And, can you please make the guns do more damage? XD. I got the LMG last night, and buy the time i emptyed the clip, 1/5th of a reg zombies health was gone.
Disease 61, the weapon damage is fine its a team play and its cool that you need to be 5 people to take down a zombie, remember its a living dead, not an easy target.
and about the sharing of the mod. i don't think he will share it before its done (or not even at all) you can donate and that would be a thing that only the servers admin will get something from, like when he shares it he don't get money any more and the server is not popular any more because of there are 1000 servers with it.
That's what I am think, but correct me if I am wrong.
buy the way we was playing together last night, I was the Helmut guy.
But here is a look on the mod:
--Good Things--
HUD is working fine and the menus are easy to use and easy to understand, there are not a lost of useless things:)
Its a great idea with the zombies having a large amount of HP cuz mass zombies will course lag. and the AOE damage effect it also very cool.
Levelling is working fine but some class are not 100 %, like the guy with the flame-thrower, he does not get avenge of levelling up. but else over all it looks fine with the classes.
--Bad Things--
Something that's really is annoying me is that the prop (after build time) made by other user is almost impossible to walk/jump to from. i don't know why but when standing on another persons prop you gain a large amount of delay while jumping / walking / couching.
Another bug I noticed is that when there are a lot of people in the server, all the zombies at some point in the middle of the game just stop running and are standing still, waiting to be killed.
And one more bug. I was playing with a person called Dr.Hax, i don't know how, but he did mange to make multiply turrets, (heavy turret) he might be an mod of the server but what do i know, i just noticed it.
--Ideas--
Adding the ability to see your all your amount of damage you have done all the time you have been on the server.
Adding a bit more classes, and maybe give the heavy 25 more hp but slow him down a bit, so all the classes are more personalized.
Add some more props. (maybe)
And do something about the turrets, people are only buying heavy ARO and normal, not the small one ore mediums, instead you could make a turret that does like the flame-thrower, and one there is infecting people or dropping mine that are triggered when zombie are in range of the mine, ex make it drop one each minute and each upgrade will degrees the drop rate buy 2 sek so at level 10 its dropping every 40 sec..
so far 8.8/10 - and very fun playing with friends ! Thank for making this dude :D im sure it will reach a 10' :P
Well that is what I have to say for now, I hope it helped you juts a bit :)
I guess your right about the teamwork and such. I plan on donating $10 via Paypal when the funds transfer (i know i gotta convert it to Euros, but I'll come across that path when i get too it.)
Yesterday, on alomost every map, the zombies would just stand there at spawn. Which is a major glitch.
Oh, and I was a pyro for the first time. And if I fire the flame thrower, the sound doesn't stop, even when I do. Which busts my eardrums XD.
Edit: Oh, and idk if this is a glitch or not, but, People yesterday were able to place there turrets close to each other, and it wouldn't "bleed". Something to look at.
and about that turret idea. Maybe make the Heavy turrets do more damage straight off. and also stronger. And have the player be able to spawn 2 "light" turrets. They'd be really weak, and do less damage, but fire faster than heavy turrets.
Is the OP even alive? He hasn't posted in a couple months.
EDIT: I take that back, he's still active in his steam group.
This is shit, i use hours on testing and make a reply cuz you got an awesome gamemod, but no response? Not cool :S
i guess this may be a little offtopic but what is the endmusic you got on the server?

Good job bringing up a old topic. Read the f*cking OP. Does it look like the server is alive?
Mhmm i love this mod even if its dead , and i would like to play with friends but server is not being updated .... crap
The OP is still dead?
I would like to make some new maps for the mod but I cant without some instruction from the mod creator... ;(
wait someone bumped it :/
I am a thread necro ;D
Thanks! I've been looking for the server with this gamemode, just as fun as ever.
Loufang, why did you leave the group? That was my favorite gamemode, and now the servers are down, according to Head-hunter, you left the group without giving the code for it so no one can play the gamemode :(
WHAT THE FUCK MAN?
