Doom 2 becomes an espionage thriller with this upcoming mod
I must admit, I get a little antsy when I go a few days without talking about a Doom or Doom 2 mod. I dunno, there's just something satisfying about how an influential franchise that's older than some people reading is still providing an outlet for creativity. One recent example comes from ModDB user Graaicko, and essentially transforms Doom 2 into a CIA-based counter-terrorism shooter. With the promise that you'll get to infiltrate enemy territory and stop a worldwide threat as Strike Team Eagle, "Shadow Elite" is a total conversion mod that should appeal to fans of espionage thrillers. Image via Graaicko/ModDB It's described as an "action-packed stealth espionage" experience, which will deliver "high-octane" missions, as well as realistic weapons, all in the name of stopping a terrorist threat. Essentially, we're a long way from the original id Software game. Stay tuned for a release date Here's what Graaicko has to say about "Shadow Elite:" You will adventure through the massive super structure, engaging in endless firefights with cutthroat mercenaries. [Whatever] it takes, you must get to the location of where the corporation keeps its files of dark and corrupt activities. Director Sheridan will stop at nothing to make sure you leave the building in nothing but a body bag. Now, saying the mod will be action-packed doesn't really cut it, seeing as Doom 2 is already fit to burst with plenty of action. But with this, we get a completely different setting to Hell, where we'll be up against a terrorist organization rather than demons. Sort of like a more pixelated James Bond or Sam Fisher. Currently, there is no release date for the mod, as it's said to be quite a big project. Graaicko says progression is coming along, but it's "too soon" to say when it will actually be ready. For now, you can follow the mod for updates if it sounds like something that'll be up your street. The post Doom 2 becomes an espionage thriller with this upcoming mod appeared first on Destructoid.
