Windows Neotokyo

Anyone been playing this Source mod?

basically a futuristic shooter which in many ways relates to akira, blade runner or ghost in the shell.

been getting my ass handed to me fairly regularly, really enjoying it tho.

its basically a stealth deathmatch. three classes available. two of them with the ability to cloak for a limited time, each class also has a different kind of vision, that you can switch to; motion (for seeing cloaked opponents), NV, or thermal. you are basically playing capture the flag, but the flag is a ghost (half a robot that you have to drop your primary to carry). when you have the ghost you can see the locations of all enemies, but they can also see you.

it feels very counter strikey but slower (plenty of creeping and crouching), with interesting weapons and a level up system. the game art and levels are excellent. tbh its difficult to believe this is a free mod and not a paid for game. give it a go!

 

Looks interesting. Must investigate further...

Thanks for the heads-up!

 

no problem, i may start calling this "crompers weekly free multiplayer heads up"!

anyways anyone who is downloading should put their steam name up on the thread (mine in sig) is its very team based and i havent properly had chance to play with like minded people yet. would be very rewarding with a mic's and a good team.

It's very innovative but the level up system is a pain for new players and usually one team is thrashing the other.

The visions are interesting but not very advanced however I think they're a great idea, although they do give a huge advantage, especially the motion and thermal vision.

 

oops!

 

Looks interresting, will give it a try.
