Today we are proud to announce the protagonist of the first chapter (Prologue). Amber will be introduced and will play a huge role in the story arc and explanation of events in the next four chapters. She is talented in server Communications and heads up Research into Dark Matter. As you can probably guess from the header, the Lab is located in the remote regions of Alaska underground. (Yes, there are no zombies in this game)

So it has been quite a while huh? Thought we were dead? Far from it in fact, The Dark Storm team at Fenrir Studios, have been quite busy. Javonni and I have been recruiting some of the best artists from across the world to get this project back on track. However, today is not set for an explanation of team events. To all voice Actors that replied we will be following up and sending emails over the next few days we had quite the number of professionals send in applications so that will only make the process longer in reviewing their samples and setting up live sessions on Skype.

As you can also see, we posted several pictures of weapons awaiting texture work in the current queue and you will see more Level Design pictures, promotional art and characters in the weeks to come. We are Planning for a Q1 Release 2013 on Steam and similar services with only Chapter 1 and the rest being added over courses of development cycles of 2-6 months with a total of 5 chapters. Our website will be launching next month where you can follow development read character bio’s and understand the world of Dark Storm. The projected price now is $20 with all DLC and possible multiplayer added on a later date all free to the core game.

Character Models
As you can see our character models are coming along just as well. See you all soon!

About our Game:
Dark Storm mod, is a First Person Sci-F/Military Shooter with some Horror elements that is being Developed previously on the Source Engine with the eventually conversion over to the Unreal 3 Engine. Due to problems in development due to Newer applications and their lack of support for Source. Dark Storm has seen inspiration from many different games such as Call of duty 4, Crysis & even Bioshock. That we've encountered and we've tried to see what worked and what didn't to build a Hybrid of sorts for our Senior Project at our School. The game will feature several systems that i want to detail for the community and anyone that is interested in the beta to give invaluable information of what they think of it.

* Tactical Aim-Sight System
* New story Line, that is completely fresh
* Tactical shooter
* Squad mates will be fully scripted and detailed in who they are

In the end we hope to provide a thrilling four to to six hour game for individuals to enjoy and feel like that download was easily worth it.

Dark Storm:

Now the game its self will start in somewhere familiar of Call of duty fans to show basic controls and a introduction further into the story line but due to revealing to many plot points i cannot go further into it.

It's spelled Tjernobyl*

Sounds pretty good so far. A bit overbaited area though.

SageHunter: that depends a lot on the language you speak, as to how that is spelled.

seems like Ive seen that tank mesh b4 lol

Just an Abrams, pretty generic. And it's actually Чорнобиль, but since we don't live in Ukraine or Russia and don't use Slavic characters, we spell it differently because Ch is the sound we use for Tj.

The plot could use work because... none of that makes sense, partially because half of the words you use aren't the right words at all. Russia wants Alaska back anyway, even when the USSR was around when Chernobyl had the meltdown, they said the US should give it back or sometimes just say it's theirs (even though they sold it to us fair and square). I don't really know what a disaster in the Chernobyl disaster really means either. And a Fusion explosion is pretty unlikely, because in the event that something went wrong the temperatures would probably start to drop immediately, thus not reaching the required temperature for fusion. You would get plasma leaking everywhere, but that would probably eat through just about everything so even if there was no ventilation, the pressure wouldn't get high enough to cause an explosion. Meltdown still, but far easier contained than what happened. Why would they even be doing experiments like that there? It makes no sense, and I really fail to see why they would have a beacon sent into space or why anyone would pick that up, as opposed to the hundreds of thousands of millions of other beacons sent into space since WWII. Or before WII, whenever Nazi Germany held the Olympics.
