I told you all that I would keep you updated.
Sure, the main sites haven't posted the news yet (it is 1:52am...), but it is August 3rd, our Premiere date so I figured I could show you guys the website and show you the new media

www.incoming-source.net

Some media not even linked on the site yet:

Looks pretty impressive, somebody certainly has talent with the displacement tool! Nice to see a mod taking its time before officially announcing itself to the public too, means you have lots to show for yourselves already. My main concern about the mod is that after reading through the main news post, and the about page, no mention was made of Halo, which you are clearly basing this off <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

Looks fun but there is a lot of ideas taken from Halo. They even ripped off the warthog and the Spartans. I would expect more originality from such a mod. The irony is that whoever wrote the site goes on and on about how original and creative the mod is. (rolls eyes) All in all it looks fun though. I think if I was on the mod I could've designed way better suits and vehicles. The flying ship design they have looks like utter crap.

Well... it is yet to be corrected though. I don't know so much about it (as I said) and I never played Halo... :P Anyway, I heard they are going to change a lot.

looks like it has great potential but i feel that it is basically halo on source engine, some of the weapons are identical as well! plus would they still use m4 and the mp5 400 years into the future?

but all in all it looks good. i like the look of the levels especially.

I don't know, personally I would rather just play Halo. But whatever turns you on I guess.

Another thing I don't like is their slogan "Bringing Source to a new Scale". It just sounds stupid. I don't understand why these mods keep coming up with slogans that make themselves sound like an Xbox commercial. There isn't any mod that hasn't already been made or is already a game. There's a crap load of CS type mods, Halo mods, zombie mods, cyber punk, etc. If your going to make a mod just make it as best you can. It puts me off to try and act like you've got something that no other mod has.
