Vance from the Strategy Core is working on a post-apocalyptic mod for Silent Storm. This is what he had to say:<blockquote>
Right now it is called ‘Sandy Wastes’ and takes place in a post apocalyptic 1978- where all is desert and what remaining technology is horded a select few- The open sands are plagued by raiders who pray off the scavengers who are trying to rebuild a life for themselves.
The game play will have much more Roll playing elements: Dialogs where your choices matter, factions to join or fight, and a real outcome to your decisions. The party will also be kept small and the fights less-hi powered (as in no panzerkins, less heavy weapons and grenades, less ammo all around).
The baggiest influences to this mod would be: movies: 'a boy and his dog', 'blood of heroes', 'hardware', 'mad max' (no cars though, but fighting over gas) games: 'wasteland' 'fallout'; It's not faithful to any of them, I'm working on a back story and overarching plot still... I'll post some picks soon) –Nothing too faithful to any of them, but small inspirations and hints at.</blockquote>Link: post on Strategy Core forum, including screenshots
Thanks, Slaughter and Montez
