Operation Eisenfaust: Legacy

Over 3½ years in the making, Team RayCast would like to introduce our next mod to be released:

Operation Eisenfaust: Legacy

http://www.moddb.com/mods/operation-eisenfaust-legacy

Screenshots:

Spoiler:

Featuring story and level design by Ronwolf, art by Doomjedi, programming from the talented Linuxwolf and WSJ, as well as an all new and original soundtrack by Lozer_42.

The story takes place after the events that occured in Operation: Eisenfaust Origins and Operation: Eisenfaust. After Schabbs' demise, it was assumed that the Eisenfaust plans had been destroyed once and for all. But a former protégé of Schabbs has taken the blueprints of the operation and is attempting to restart it. It is up to special agent B.J. Blazkowicz to stop the Nazi's from creating another mutant army. Will B.J. stop them, or is he about to find out that the operation might have progressed a lot faster than he thought, with its effects far more devastating...

Legacy began right after the cancellation of SonderKommando Revolt, long before Operation Eisenfaust: Origins was even discussed. 3½ years, this closely matches Sonder in development timescale. Initial ideas were taken from some ideas thrown in the discussion of the Eisenfaust: Origins remake but ended up growing into having a life of it's own.
This is the first time Team RayCast has gone for all new sounds and music made specifically for the mod.

This is looking good. Looking forward to playing it when it gets released. Reminds me I need to complete Origins.

Looks good!

Yes you do

And thank you

Wait... is that the Strife armory dude in the first screenshot?

Yes, it is Sharp notice
You can read the full (?) list of art ..."inspirations" in Legacy's readme once released.

No new weapons for this mod compared to Eisenfaust Origins?

Well, considering that the first screenshot shows a weapon that was not in Origins...

a rifle is still a rifle LOL. It just doesn't have a scope... unless

Let me say it this way - if we would have such - we wouldn't show them on first pics of the mod

ah.... okay.

Awww yea.  I hope that this will be as awesome as Origins was.

Well...I hope we've advanced as a team since then... Did we? - time will tell

Unlike Origins, this one was developed from the beginning is "Eisenfaust/Mutant" mod, so hopefully it'll be more...naturally fitting the theme and exploring it deeper.
Origins mod was too long - this one will have less maps and more themes, so hopefully it'll be less repetitive.
Also we had one dedicated coder for the whole process - unlike Origins that switched coders like gloves.
And one consistent mapper instead of 2 different mappers.
Also this one already started from good solid engine (Totenkopf SDL, by WSJ permission), and that's another difference.
All that and more...we can only hope for the mod to do well. But we do.

Not yet...
We do have our internal release goals/timeframes we'll try to stand by...but no specific date...

Good idea playing with mutant BJ

Yes, thank you.
This worked quite well, indeed.

While this is still right for most of the music - it seems now not ALL music will be original music by Kris, like we've intended.
Hope the "other" tracks will fit well in quality and style.

What style is the music? IMF? MIDI? OGG?

OGG

ah okay
