The Last Stand


[~TLS~] has decided to go multinational!

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/thelaststand_l4d/announcements/detail/54146262651785411

With the beginning members being from all over the place, with no sizable number of people in any one geographical area, [~TLS~] will 'split', for want of a better word.

Members of [~TLS~] in the same general area would prefer to play together (you know, lag and all that), so the members will be grouped together according to where they live, with a regional 'leader' of sorts. Vcool reigns supreme in Europe, while I've been whacked to the top in Australia/NZ. America/Canada will be revealed whenever the leader damn well feels like it, so hang tight for an update. UPDATE: The leader finally damn well feels like revealing the local leader of the America/Canada subdivision, and it is *insert percussion sounds* -616-! Congratulations to all who made it.

Meanwhile, if you have any mates who'd be interested in joining (the long time until release notwithstanding), get them to apply at the Steam Forum thread linked above. We're still looking for members, and hopefully [~TLS~] will be a clan that means, nomatter where you are, you will have someone familiar to play with in Left 4 Dead.

It all sounds pretty good to me.

It's time for another update. August '07 met Steam users with a Beta - a beta of the Steam Community. So what is Steam Community?

Steam Community can be regarded as an extension of Friends. It allows users to create groups, public or private, and via those groups the group admins can host announcements, they can mark a day on the calendar for something special, and do those sorts of things. There is also an ability to join a chat, where all members of a group could get together and discuss important matters.

Now your's truly did not waste time and made a group for all clan members, which can be viewed through this link. As you can see the group is private - therefore you must contact me to obtain permission. My Steam Friends name is wathc me tyep. Add me on Friends and I will be happy to invite you to the group. Newcomers must naturally first fill in the form found in the About [~TLS~] tab.

On other news, two long awaited Zombie mods for the Source engine have been released. One of them is the Zombie Master, a uniques FPS/RTS mod where a player either assumes a role of a Survivor, or the role of the Zombie Master - who spawns AI guided zombies in a style of your common RTS. The other Mod is Zombie Panic! Source, which is a reincarnation of a popular Half Life modification, but on the Source engine. One player spawns as the Zombie Carrier, while others spawn as survivors. Ammo is scarce, so teamwork is neccessary. There are some problems, but most of them are thwarted by the awesomeness of the Mod. Both Mods are good and special in their own way.

So, enjoy the mods and await Left 4 Dead which is scheduled to come out in the Early '08. Have fun!


Update

It has been long since any updates.

First of all, music has been added to "About Left 4 Dead section". Credits for it go to VALVe. If you have any creepy, lyric-less songs, it is the perfect occasion to submit it. E-mail it to me @ subliminal_824@hotmail.com.

Other news are the release of Zombie Master, a fun mod where you assume the roles of the survivors. The "cherry-on-top" of this mod, is the fact that zombies are spawned with help of the Zombie Master. So if in L4D it is the AI Director giving you hell, in Zombie Master,it is an actual player from somewhere in the world, who is giving you the already mentioned hell.

Try it out, it is very fun. Unfortunatrly, there are not a lot of maps for it. But it is still nevertheless fun. 

Also, our forums have finally been revived. Lets thank those who did it.  It also has vastly expanded, now having sections like "Mapping" and "Politics".

Feel free to post.
