It's leak season, apparently. The latest is a version of the Counter-Strike map that inspired Left 4 Dead.
After working on Counter-Strike: Condition Zero under contract for Valve, Turtle Rock Studios had a couple of ideas in the works. One was a first-person wizard game that never got off the ground, while the other was a mod for Counter-Strike that transformed the counter-terrorists into bots who came at you in swarms and only attacked with knives. This was Terror-Strike, and it was the foundation of Left 4 Dead.
As Turtle Rock founder Michael Booth explains in the Left 4 Dead commentary,"While we were developing bots for Counter-Strike: Source we discovered that a few of us armed to the teeth with automatic weaponry against 30 knife-wielding enemy bots was a lot of fun. After shipping Counter-Strike: Source in late 2004 we started experimenting with new game prototypes.
While things like the Special Infected and the personable survivors with their cheery banter came later, the Terror-Strike prototype demonstrates the basic idea's feasibility. Shooting hordes of enemies who don't shoot back actually is a lot of fun. Performing a desperate reload while backpedaling down a hallway as the bad guys cluster and chase you is a frantic good time.
This prototype is part of a larger leak of Counter-Strike map sources. Called"Zombie_City", it may be either the original version of the concept that Turtle Rock showed Valve, or a slightly later iteration. Modder Wolfcl0ck performed a few tweaks to make it playable."My upload fixes a texture by adding a new material for it", they write.
