Hey peoples! the fast paced death match and capture the gorge mod for NS2 is now out on the workshop.



Please give it a whirl and make us feel special. It'll give you a few laughs and improve your skulking and shooting skills. Its currently active on two servers:

SCC custom map server in London: 85.236.101.73:28215
Modbox Chicago server: 69.39.239.29:27615

Okay its a bit of filthy self promotion here but we've worked hard on it and its quite a lot of fun apparently so I think I can get away with it on this occasion. Please direct all feedback, suggestions and bug reports to the Modding thread

    It's bloody amazing, and capturing mewling gorges is hilarious. :D

    Also it's the best shotgun vs. skulk practice you can get. :P

    Awesomely done with this.

    I think HBZ in EU has this mod, maybe not on right now? Played it yesterday.

    Had a go on this the other night on the HBZ server, it was an absolute blast. I can thoroughly recommend this mod to everyone out there, even if Mailman needs to be nerfed!
    Amazing job with the mod, it was the most fun I've had in quite a while!

    I have an hour + 21 minutes of Skulks With Shotguns (with FFA and CTG) uploaded to YouTube (will edit post later with the video when less busy)

    Edit: Video has some big hitching in first minute or so (guess because I was recording) and shotgun sounds cut out sometimes depending on what direction I was looking, but it gets the point across :)

    Omg, it's TF2 scouts on crack - without the double/triple-jumping ofc.

    Glad to see some new mods being released. Skulks with shotguns - such a genius idea. Can't wait to play. :)

    I have a great idea, add in lmg and gls, and boost skulk health by 500 percent. ooh, and a variation on gl that goes faster, doesn't arc and explodes on contact. and can't forget about fully charged rail shots that fire on click, travesty to forget that. and modify the gorge spit so that it's a little slower but you up the frequency to compensate. also add some items you can pick up on the level that simulate enzyme+storm and carapace.

    now that's a mod I'd really be interested in. :p

    I want to see skulks with jetpacks. Not because it's practical, just because it would look fuckin awesome and/or hilarious.

    or a gorge with unlimited jetpack fuel and extra hp being chased by normally fueled jetpack/sg marines.

    Sounds kinda one sided since gorges already move as fast as marines, faster with bellyslide.

    Anyway I'm just coming at this from the same mindset that wants to strap rockets to anything.

    I thought the usual combinations were these? :D

    - skulks with shotguns
    - gorge with grenade launchers
    - lerks with LMGs
    - fades with flamethrowers

    ...and no weapon for the onos, as there's nothing starting with o :\

    Onos with Observatories? They still use their gore attack but there is no hiding. Or you could go with Onos with Orbital ion cannons for mass Obliteration.

    Yeah it's on HBZ3 - 89.163.177.130:27021 (i think)

    Amazingly good mod, especially at 6v6+ in CTG. Really wouldn't mind some Instagib railguns ;)

    Only issues i've really had are being too quick to grab the gorge and the gorge being annoying when you hold it and getting in your screen depending on your rotation :p#

    Even with that it's the most awesome thing in NS2.

    I played this one night it was fun. Though I use two different sensitives for aliens and marines and this mod had my brain really confused. The capture the gorge mode was by far the most fun.

    Played SwS a night or two ago. It was pretty amusing.
    This mod reminds me of 1v1 scout drills in tf2. heh

    I was with a totally green friend and joined one of my regular servers.
    And what I saw was skulks jumping around and shooting each other. I laughed out hard, felt like it was totally awesome, but sadly enough, had to leave because I had to show my friend what real game is :( Never encountered any other SWS servers :(
