I am currently making a large-ish mod, complete with a backstory etc. and I just wanted to know what the community thought of it.

STORY
On a Nazi-Testing facility, posing as a high-tech desalination facility, a professor known only as "Packard" spliced a symbiotic formula bred from dead human cells and a destructive parasite. Using this formula, he has injected himself with the vaccine, unwittingly extending his life dramatically. He then proceeded to unleash it upon the island, turning everyone but himself into mindless, hungry fiends. The undead have "accepted" him as one of their own, as he has traces of the symbiote in himself.

The span of this isolation has left him psychopathic. Packard has watched the world from his secluded island, finding the best warriors to fight the hordes for his leisure. Using stasis pods, Packard has kept warriors from many eras. Sadly all but 3 did not survive the stasis.

These people are :

Cpl. Josh Miller - SAS. collected in the year 1994
Takashi Oni - Yakuza. collected in the year 2048
Tina Macguire - Mechanic/Explosives Technician. Collected in the year 2272

OBJECTIVES
Find the Stasis Pods and free the captives
Get out of the Desal Facility
Go to the entrance to the research facility
Go to the radar station to get explosives
Blow open the door to the research facility
Take out Packard

At this point, you are free to leave the island and come back as you please, just to fight off the hordes with the other survivors.

REQUIRES
Fallout New Vegas
CFWNV

That is all i have so far. I have made the island itself, and am now in the process of placing cliffs, buildings etc. http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad268/Lethal_infinity/Untitled-2.jpg
Any tips or anything you would change, add, or remove would be very welcome. Questions also welcome :goodjob:

Thanks,

Some grammar errors in your description.

"leisure" doesn't seem like the right word considering that he's trapped on an island for 100's of years.... he should have nothing but leisure time. Maybe you meant pleasure, or entertainment?

Sadly only three have survived, as opposed to "all but three did not survive" which means that only three of the warriors died.

Can't really think of much else.... just how fleshed out will the other survivors be? One thing I was kind of disappointed about in Mothership Zeta was how they didn't really take advantage of the story potential of having people from all sorts of different times.

Also, what would the 'undead fiends' be like? Humanish, or rabid ghoul type thing? Personally I find human enemies to be more interesting to fight than creature type enemies like feral ghouls.

There are feral ghouls (Normal Zombies) and there are Normal Ghouls (Undead Nazis). i will also be adding retextured Trogs as another Undead character.


P.S. "All but 3 did not survive" is a short way of saying : All of them died except 3.
