Nosferatu is a teambased multiplayer first person shooter. It involves roundbased (each player has 1 life round just like in the famous game counterstrike) only this game pits vampires vs slayers.
So after posting lots of twitter updates, and getting comments like "update without screenshots... dull" - I had to post some new screenshots :)
Development has been on/off alot lately, with larger gaps in the middle of the year. But lots of progress during the last months.
We are currently focusing on getting everything playtest worthy done, which resulted in me spending one weekend syncing all the weapons to sounds and adjusting thirdperson weapon positions.
All in all, the progress over the last week has been incredible.
Of course now and then we add some awesome stuff as well, as happened the other day with the stealth kills (aka fatalities from behind ;) Basically if a vampire succeeds in sneaking up to a slayer from behind, he is able to perform one of various awesome fatality like kills (i.e. heart rip out + eat).
At the moment me and Fragger are animating those kill sequences, however if an animator wants to help out -> contact me.
Anyways, enjoy the screenshots (all work in progress so the one or other thing might obviously need improving/fixing).

w00t Can't Wait. :D
advanced physics (like really cool stuff) is something I would like to add, but its not that easy and prolly wont make it into the first release.
"wont the fps be too low if you take an old engine and put some newer technigues in it ?? "
Does Halflife2 have low fps ?
Ok i moved the game to the standalone section to make it more obvious that it is standalone and way different from quake2 (both in terms of gameplay and Technology)
sweeet bots for offline!!!
i have never played quake 2, but if a mod is called nosferatu...it is just begging to be watched :P
vampires will own j00!
btw. there will be bots (maybe not in the first release), for those who can't play online.
Thanks for your comments :)
interesting ..humm...
Nice Work on the music stuff. Kicks Arse!
This looks nice! To bad its not single player, it would be so sweet to battle vampiers in single player, BLAM! STAKE!
