Merry Christmas to all and Sven made it just that much more special with the release of 4.7 today!

Some new features include:

• New map: Quarter. In this map, the players must prevent a base from being overrun by enemies. Failing to defend an area forces the players to retreat further back into new areas.
• Improved sentence handling: NPC’s now use more sentences, mappers can specify their own sentences, and other improvements
• Linux server binary now included
• New console command called “stuck” allows players to get unstuck
• Using the grenade warning automatically makes friendly NPC’s seek cover
• Spawn points are now randomly selected with no spawn fragging
• On-line donor lookup: An online donor list now lets donors receive their bonus features without having to wait for the next release
• trigger_load is now able to load data from other maps’ save files, improving the ability to create map series where events in one map affect what happens in other maps.
• New High-Definition remakes of HLDM player models
• Bug fixed that prevented players from falling down when using the grapplegun.

It’s always exciting news to see updates made to Fortress Forever mod. The dev team has stuck it through for over 5 years with their mod. Yes many people out there favor TF2. But for those of us who started with TFC back in the good ol’ days, FF offers so much more to the classic style gameplay of TFC.

It has been nearly a year since the last patch, but we’re still alive and kicking. This update brings some much needed/long-awaited changes (new class selection screen) as well as bug fixes, balance tweaks, and a large amount of added Lua scripting functionality.

Also, in case you missed it, Fortress Forever turned 5 years old in September. Thank you to those of you that have supported this mod and helped it to survive all these years.

2.45 Changelog

With around 140 fixes, tweaks, and updates to CSProMod. It is without a doubt something to look forward to this Sunday Sunday Sunday!

While it comes to no surprise. Pressplaytv.com has announced Cry of Fear mod as their pick for scariest game of the year for 2012. And who could not agree? If you have not played this “Half-Life” mod yet. You do not know what you are missing out on! See the below article:

Running through the candidates for Scariest Game of 2012, we realized how many truly terrifying experiences we had this year. It just goes to show that graphics aren’t half as important to a horror game as a compelling atmosphere and creepy story, as Half-Life 1 mod Cry of Fear scared us more than any other title. It feels like a first person Silent Hill, boasting the kind of psychological fear in its first 15 minutes that you couldn’t get in the entire campaign of Dead Space. Offering a hefty campaign and separate cooperative storyline that takes Resident Evil co-op efforts to school, you’d be getting your money’s worth if this game cost you a single cent. Do you hate having dry trousers enough to play Cry of Fear, our Scariest Game of 2012?

Congratulations Cry of Fear mod! May there be many more goty awards coming your way!
