Mod Idea

I was thinking about things that could be put in mods of this game and it got me thinking about what we could do with a total overhaul of the game.

My first idea was related back to Half-Life (of course):

The setting would be Black Mesa
The two teams would be a squad of Marines and a group of scientists and security guards
The Marines would be the 'infected', in other words they have to stop the scientist/guard group from reaching the end of the level.
This idea is dependant on one aspect of the AI: can it be set so some things attack both sides. This group would be the Xen aliens.
Then you would have other Marines as the normal 'infected'.

I know it isn't a likely thing to happen but its just a cool idea I thought I'd share.

Discuss and post any of your own ideas.

It sounds good.

Well I am an Xbox 360 gamer But that sounds pretty neat indeed, would probably take a lifetime to make but neat still

Yeah, if it ever did happen it would probably take a Black Mesa-esque time to make

Sounds very neat.
I like the idea, and it actually sounds pretty do-able, if the code permits. I remember reading about some commands for the console, like: Team 1, Team 2, Team 3, Team 4, etc.

It would be a good idea if it works, but would take quite a while.
I'm guessing the whole mod should take about 3 months at most, to make. Guessing on a team of about 8-10 people.
