ZS: Bandit Warfare

This gamemode is still in an early stage of development, and many things may be adjusted or added in the future! You can find the git repository here, [github.com] and you can submit any bug requests or feature requests using the git issues form.[github.com]




OFFICIAL SERVER (EU): 178.62.0.142:27015 (Sometimes down) Shut down for the time being

Bandit warfare is a PVP gamemode built over the foundation of Zombie Survival. It takes inspiration from other team-based shooters such as Counter-Strike, Team Fortress 2, or the Battlefield series. It is both my humble homage and love letter to ZS after years of tinkering with its code for a server I moderated.

As such, I intend for it to have the same "vibe", for lack of a better term, as Zombie Survival. Many HUD elements and weapon designs are identical as a direct homage, while others have been modified to match the more fast-paced and strategic gameplay.

Requires at least 6 people for optimal fun!

• Fight as 2 separate teams pitted against each other over various objectives.
  
• Collect biological samples from fallen enemies and comrades to fuel the zombie vaccine research effort.
  
• Capture and hold transmitters for long enough to contact the rest of your allies faster than the enemies can.
  
• ...Or just clear the area of all enemy activity! The last team standing wins!
  
• Utilise a variety of different weapons, all designed to tailor to a specific feature or niche. Progress your weapons through the upgrade tree to reach weapons with devastating power.
  
• Supplement your arsenal with various tools that can turn the tide of battle, from handheld interceptors that reflect back enemy projectiles to EMP guns that can halt enemy transmission progress.
  
• Languages supported: English, Korean, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish

The gamemode has been built with the ideology that the #1 issue with most Garry's Mod servers is the sheer number of assets that must be downloaded beforehand. This gamemode wishes to push the boundaries of what can be done with the base assets, and directly combat the "addon bloat" that is often prohibitive for good gameplay.

tl;dr It has been thoroughly tested to work with only HL2 (Mounted by default within Garry's Mod) and CS:S mounted, aside from this addon itself.

As this gamemode follows similar design principles to Counter-Strike, many CS maps can be played with a little bit of prior work required to make them playable in all three "modes" in ZS:BW. The work required can be read up on here[github.com], but this is a list of maps that are supported out-of-the box.

A truly heartfelt thank you to Zombie Survival.

Without Zombie Survival, I would never have gotten into gmod coding, and game design in general. Thank you. You truly deserved over 4000 hours of my time, and none of it was wasted.
