Dystopia v1.0

without comments

Jason got me hooked on a new Source mod, Dystopia.

Basically its a normal FPS, but a few members of your team are “deckers” (hackers) who run around in a cyberworld version of the map, and hack the other team. This allows your hackers to unlock enemy doors, active turrets, steal enemy turrets, etc.

The rest of your team has three classes to choose from: light, medium, and heavy. Each class has 4 different weapons it can equip, and a hodgepodge of implants they can equip as well. (The combinations seem endless)

A few notable combinations:

  • Light class: Stealth/Cloak (makes you invisible) – this is amazingly fun to run around with a sword and 1 hit enemy players
  • Medium class: Medic implant and assault riffle – basically run around and heal your teammates and yourself (auto) while spray’n and pray’n
  • Heavy class: Minigun or Rocket launcher – I think rocket launcher is self explanatory.

The game also includes some pretty intense stat tracking on your current round, and carries over a “global rank” across all servers. (woot for rank 1829 something)

If you like quick and dirty fights, with lots of action, and plenty of options – Dystopia is a mod you should check out.
