There's a ton of confusion about what's going on, which I have purposely and successfully created in the interests of making sure OUTBREAK survives inevitable sabotage attempts from outside sources.
Trust me, everything will be fine, noone's gonna fuck with us.
I will be creating (a) detailed thread(s) with explanations, status updates & cool developments that have been happening lately, especially the last two weeks. I'll explain everything in detail, reasons for why, what, where & how. I will.
This is going to be huge. But in the mean time, just relax and try to pretend everything is normal. This is an exciting but hectic time in development.
I have only one favor to ask of you all, though. Try not to tell people about this MOD, or direct anyone to this board. Just for now.
Pretend it's really been terminated, and make it your little secret treasure that you don't want anyone finding.
Please try not to talk about this on any other forum, or well-known modding/gaming sites/communities. We gotta work together on keeping a tight lid on this for a bit. As for MODDB, you could even help feed the illusion of "termination" by making comments or replies such as "Yeah it's been terminated" or whatever. Be creative, if you want. This is until I get OUTBREAK's listing on MODDB removed -completely-.
After that, we'll be on the road to success. You gotta trust me people.
Keep all references, discussions etc strictly within this board. We're safe here, but nowhere else. Do this for me, and you will all have done your part & contribution for this project.
I'll try to get everyone up to speed sometime this week. You've all been patient and I'm asking for more of your patience, now more than ever. I won't let you down.
I am just as passionate about delivering the coolest mod in gaming history, as you are about wanting to play it. This project means so very much to me, more than you guys know.
Thank you!
-vet

Edit: Nevermind I read it over again and I understand your plan.

Hell, like father like son. SMOD wants to be secret so it's fair we keep SMOD outbreak secret as well.

Hang in there people, we've just entered the alpha stages of vanishing. New member signups are now disabled.
All paper trails from MODDB are now gone. I just gotta request the mod listing be deleted. I'll do it tomorrow.

The meta-data and related search engine info has also been tweaked, within a few weeks... "SMOD OUTBREAK" in t he search engine should start to let go of this page. I'd say it'll take about 2 months before the eye in the sky passes us by.
It's gonna get a bit weird. Never a dull moment eh?

I feel special. I got my own secret mod community affiliation. It's hard not to share such a bad-ass development in source gaming but when my friends asked I told them that the mod was discontinued. They cried blood and asked me if they could have the old binaries, I told them I didn't have them anymore.
I sort of understand what's going on here and I think it's very funny. I just can't wait for the next real release.

Post by veteran_gamer on Mar 6, 2009 17:17:34 GMT -8
proof - watch the sneak peek/official trailer, although i'm planning to make an even better teaser. I think that's what i'll call the videos from now on, teasers
killerbee - people are stupid and insane, heh. all that matters is that i'm able to share this eventually
another thing is people, you have to tell yourselves nothing may EVER come out, of course im not going to do that, but IF that does happen, you cant hold a grudge. there are no guarantees or promises in this world, to any of us
we just gotta let time pass, and see where the winds of life take us. shit can happen. shit happens.
just relax and when the day comes, you'll know, trust me. i wouldnt worry about it for at least 2 more months, at least.
i think releasing this thing complete is the way to go. from beginning till end, im just not convinced or satisfied with it being customized until the end of the d2_coast maps. instead of update after update...one, final, complete meal. the end

Yes, Sir! I went to this mod page on ModDB.com and wrote that you're no longer developing this mod because you got a new big job at a major game company. LOL
hopefully the bunch of whiny idiots over there believe it!
Can't wait for this game, It will be the best single player mod for 2009 (after BM of course, which I doubt it will come out this year, they keep delaying it....oh that's an other story....)
