1256052394|Doobie|Deadfall Released|After months of development by Jon God with help from Zeph, Deadfall, and extensive modification of Quarantine ( Quarantine ) , is finally finished. Deadfall is a Zombie based cooperative survival plugin for Myth II. Playable with up to 15 players, Deadfall pits you against nearly 400 AI controlled zombies.<br /><br />Without variety, What is a plugin? Deadfall is playable across 15 maps, with 6 unique gametypes and team/ffa variants.<br /><br />To add another layer to the gameplay, Deadfall is class based, and every round you can choose a class to suit your playing style, be it Rockets, or Medic, there are 8 classes to choose from, each unique with their own pros and cons.<br /><br />If a player dies when fighting against zombies, he returns from the grave to kill his former team mates to score extra points, and keep them from getting any more points.<br /><br />Levels range from urban sprawls to snowbound bases, and everything in between, get ready to fight on some of the most varied maps in a plugin yet. You'll find yourself fighting in quarries, deserts, small cities, harbors, and more in a host of Strangelet maps!<br /><br />Gametype wise, expect some interesting twists, with the normal zombie slaying infection, along with other gametypes including a FPS style deathmatch gametype, with multiple spawn points, and FPS style capture the flag.<br /><br />Touching on classes, there are some of the more obligatory classes, such as the Medic, and Flamethrower classes, but along with them are more original classes, such as the Seeker, with his plasma launcher, and missiles. There is enough variety to make for some very interesting combinations of classes for co-op.<br /><br />The cherry on top of the features is the high standard of graphical quality in this plugin, with nearly all sprites much higher resolution then normal Myth II sprites, and all 15 levels completely detail textured. Deadfall will be the prettiest Myth II 1.7 plugin released to date!<br /><br />After reading all this, what are you waiting for?

Ozone's masterpiece is one of the most innovative coop/multiplayer of the year.<br /><br />Because of the small amount of people, we believe the best way to release major projects for Myth is to work with version numbers.

Hold the hill and protect the messenger, for he carries news that could decide the fate of the West and shape the course of the war.<br /><br />My goal for Grave Tidings was to create a level that was epic in scale, but kept the traditional style of Myth gameplay that I love. It features a modest (by today’s standards, at least) 1200 enemies, but provides a harrowing challenge nonetheless as you will not be able to rely on superhuman units. Grave is full of explosive carnage and hectic clashes, and includes a number of special features including voice acting, inventory switching, magic bows, easter eggs, a bonus level, a warrior captain whose special ability drains health from an enemy and transfers it to himself, and more! I hope you'll have fun with this, whether you are a fan of epic endurance coops or more traditional Myth.<br /><br />Grave Tidings requires Myth II 1.6 to play.||3||
