been gone for a while, but came back with a new idea, a Half Life 2 based RPG. where you either play a Civilian turn member of the resistance, or a Civil Protection member (i'll explain if you don't know the story). This will take place in City 17, and the other places near it, starting at the beginning of the revolt.
Backstory: some time in the 2000's a research facility called Black Mesa was testing with a strange and unknown crystal. But in one of the tests, the crystal suddenly, and furiously began to cause discrepancies in the equipment causing explosions and destruction, and teleporting strange aliens all over the facility, mercilessly killing everyone, people began fleeing towards the surface of the facility, but in a matter of hours Marines began landing and killing everyone as well, trying to contain the outbreak and keep it under wraps. Though they failed and the rip between Earth, and the alien world "Xen" widened. letting an assortment of aliens through, including the Combine. After the combine came through they started a war with all of earth, which ended in a matter of hours with billions dead, Peace, negotiated by Dr. Wallace Breen has caused a military state rule over earth, with Breen as a spokesperson of sorts. the Combine have a complete dominance over earth, but the people left are not happy at all, they started a resistance, at first small and weak, but it grew as more people joined, and now due to recent events, they are starting to revolt against their masters and this is where the game begins.
The two basic 'classes': instead of having a set of classes, i'll let you make your own class as the game moves on.
Combine Civil Protection: the lowest rank of combine forces, still completely human, but wear white masks that seem to be a gasmask of sorts, and use vocorders to hide their voice. Equipment:Combine Mask, light bullet resistant vest, leather boots, black-green uniform, Stun baton.
Resistance: mostly citizens, paired with a Xen alien race called the Vortigaunts, previously slaves of a large entity called the Nihilanth but now allied with the resistance against the Combine. The citizens themselves are oppressed people angry towards the combine. Equipment:Citizen Clothes (basically a blue boiler suit), Suitcase containing misc. items

one of them turns around, pistol in hand and opens fire. the rounds go wide hitting around you, but stopping you up nonetheless, the citizen then takes cover at the corner.
The small corridor consists of stone wall to the left with a few alcoves spaced 10 yards apart, and a long pipeway that you could crawl under to the right, center is nearly open, with only a few crates for protection and it's all dimly lit by various grates.

indeed, too bad they aren't quite to that point yet, so, yeah.
well you are in your apartment in Block eight, when an alarm klaxon goes off, causing the more jittery citizens to jump in fear. the monotonous female voice comes over the speakers
"Miscount detected in block 8. Civil protection will now search the block. All citizens who comply will receive full rations for the month. Warning, not complying will result in permanent off world deportation."

I make a break for the pipeway while firing off three shots to keep the civilian's head down. Once under the pipeway, I radio in my position and situation to keep whoever's listening informed. After doing so, I crawl on my side towards the end of the pipeway, while aiming the USP at the civilian. If he tries to fire or looks out of cover, then I open fire.
you make a dash and take cover keeping the civilian behind cover, and he leans out from cover "where the **** are you?" and you open fire on him. ****, so close, you miss and he falls back a bit shocked, but quickly recovers and makes a mad dash down the corridor leading towards a steel door. You also hear boots stomping down the hallway leading to the canals

I roll out from under the pipeway and make a dash after the civilian. I take a potshot at his leg. If he doesn't drop his weapon and surrender himself, I shoot him in the leg.

jeez, you miss again, and he makes it into the door, slamming it behind him and opening a small slot, blind firing from it, and... **** you need better luck, it hits you for... 16 damage and puts you to the ground.

I simply need better luck? BOI, I DESPERATELY need better luck in almost everything. xD Maybe I should've just used the manhack. >.<
Anyways, I crawl backwards while returning fire. Then I roll back around the corner, stand back up, and take another peek around the corner when he needs to reload. I pay special attention to the door itself, looking for a handle or slot and hinges.

Kinda feels like the synapses or synthesis mod for the co-op campaign. Hm.
I reload, then approach the door cautiously. I make sure to stay out of the slot's direct line of vision as to protect myself from gunfire. When I am near the door I try the handle.
