Awsome UT2k4 mod!

It's a huge file, but it's worth it.

http://www.blackcatgames.com/swarm/

You play as a marine in a cooperative players vs monsters kind of play a la aliens from bird's eye view. Every character has a specialisation. Some are medics, some handle explosives, others hack doors and computer systems. When the game starts out you choose your character, your primary weapon, secondary weapon, and inventory item (flashlight, torch, flares, medkits).

The screenshots really don't do it justice. It's alot more fun that it looks! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

Shiny. Looks good, and should be fun when I've hauled it off the 'net. Reminds me a lot of NS and Alien Breed too...

Hey, Blue? I'm loving the things you do. From the very first time, the fight you fight for will always be mine.

The sooner you realize I'm right the better off you will be.

I take that back. This is an overhead shooter, not first person. Bleh.

It looks quite cool. Makes me wish I had enough cash lying around to pick up a copy of the game. Oh, that reminds me - Gish should be arriving in the mail this week. w00t! [/off_topicness]

This doesn't play like a regular mod, it plays like a whole new game. I feel bad that I am downloading this for free, they should sell it :P

You're right, they should. Everything in that mod looks professional quality.
