The face of true terror.


-----------> http://www.moddb.com/mods/jaykin-bacon-episode-three <-----------


Hi there! I'm Mr. Sunabouzu. You may remember me from mods such as gm_apartment, GMod Tower, and Elevator: Source.

Half-Life 2: Episode 3 Jaykin Bacon is a spiritual successor to the little-known mod Half-Life 2: Jaykin Bacon. Jaykin Bacon is a goldsource deathmatch mod created by The Podunkian and was a very fun little mod. A large team of source modders, myself among them, have set out to create something similar to Jaykin Bacon in the actual source engine, mostly because we love the original game and have nothing better to do with our lives.

What will be in Jaykin Bacon Episode 3?

Everything that was in the original Jaykin Bacon, and more. Check out the Moddb page for juice details.


    Deathmatch: Standard. Kill everyone else.

    Battle Royale: You get one gun and one life. Last man standing is the winner.

    Gungame: Get a kill with every gun to win.

    Snake vs. Terrorists: One player is Solid Snake, everyone else are guards. Snake must sneak his way to the kerotan or kill every guard to win.

    Snake vs Monkeys: One player is Solid Snake, everyone else are short monkeys. Snake must charge his way to the frog armed with lots of guns while the monkeys try to kill him, and are able to respawn.

    Scientist Hunt: To early to say exactly, but it's gonna involve hunting scientists. Scientists who shout a line recorded for us by kleiner's actual voice actor, Harry S Robins. See videos below.




Currently it's in a closed beta of 200+ players. We have no estimation of a release date but it's not like this game is very difficult to make or anything.













See you on the field of battle.

Do you know what you guys should make if you get bored again? A source version of Boxwar.

That was an amazing mod. Everyone is a box, in a warehouse full of boxes, and you have to figure out which box is trying to kill you.

That was actually him? I heard it but I didn't believe it, I thought you guys got those lines through scrapped files on the disk or something. You gotta be proud :)

I'm watching this thread. I love these types of games.

We're just kind of adding them as we feel like it. Most (if not all) the jb weapons will appear along with whatever dumb nonsense we think of.

Also, we're likely to include most of the weapons from rocket crowbar and some scientist hunt weapons.

Does Podunkian have any role in this mod's development or not? Like even an advisor role or something? (edit: oh hes a voice actor but whatever) I'm sure he had tons of ideas back when he actually said he'd make it. I'd love for this to be as fun as the original, it was probably the most fun HL1 DM mod me and my friends ever played.

I trust you guys though since Elevator was pretty proper and had the quirkiness of his mods - it seems like a natural fit.

He's said that he's far too busy to do anything like that. We've told him we would be interested in more voice acting and the likes, but don't hold your breath over it.

I know postal, the other project lead was talking with him, he offered to help early with some new voices on but turns out he might be pretty busy, the only voices at the minute are from the original. He's played it and enjoyed it so I'm happy anyway. It would be cool if he was able to lend a hand but considering all the other stuff he has been working on, it's not much of a surprise that he doesn't have the time.

I'm pretty sure I got more enjoyment out of Half Life 2: Jaykin Bacon Source than out of a lot of AAA games that I've purchased. It might look like it's just a simple "har har we put all these terrible things in the same game whoop de doo" joke mod, but the game is actually really fun.

You'll only need Half-Life 2 Deathmatch and Source SDK 2007 and if you want to play the CSS maps then CSS as well.

Yeah uh...

The only connection this has to elevator source is that it's the same animator/texture artist.

Kikka posted:

Have no intentions of doing so and are actively trying to avoid this happening, doing things like getting beta updates out pretty often, developer tests every other day. Don't want the work of all the modellers, texture artists etc to go to waste let alone the hours I've spent coding poo poo.

he's seen it, likes what we've done and is fine with us doing what we're doing in terms of a source sequel, is more than welcome to lend a hand (from what I heard...) but is busy with other things for now.
