When it's ready.™ Prelude is a game with a bit of a fluid development cycle, so it's hard to pin-point the specific time when it'll be out.Ĭurrently, we’re all set on developers, but we’re always looking for voice actors willing to pad our world with unique and interesting characters. We are exploring the possibility of donations, but they will never provide any benefit to the player outside of aesthetic purposes. To that end, our game is 100% free, and always will be. We believe that when you pay for rank or status, everyone loses. We plan to have servers in the EU post-alpha, and resources will be persistent with those servers when they eventually go live.Ĭan I buy Boosts? Cash? Loot-boxes? VIP Perks? Admin? Our main server is hosted in Eastern Canada. We couldn’t port it to S&box even if we wanted to.

Our game was built on and designed to fit snugly into how Garry’s Mod works. The player is new to the city, dropped in the middle of a turf war between the crime families of the city and a private military conglomerate. Our story takes place in an alt-history late 90s New York City, which we call Union City. Prelude features fully-animated cutscenes, major and minor characters with voices, vendors that respond to player actions, and more. We crafted a narrative that matches the gameplay of Prelude, so players feel like they’re a part of an ever-evolving narrative.
Story? How the hell do you have a story in a GMod Gamemode? We don’t have a list of jobs for you to choose with a passive salary and limits on what you can do, we instead invite you to make your own career. However, our RP elements are system driven.
Start a gang, buy a property and build a store, steal cars, run drugs and weapons, and more. There’s plenty to do if you’re interested in combatting other players, but if you want to play passively, we have traditional RP elements to suit your needs. Players are also presented with random loot and capture events, and are encouraged to engage with the world and other players. Players can follow the main storyline by doing story missions, or they can do side and daily missions to build their resources. NLR, RDM, and other nebulous rules don’t exist, and we’ve designed the game to curb abuse through design, not by admins looking over your shoulder. Player choice is paramount, so we don’t limit players or hold players back like a traditional RP server would. Prelude features a living, breathing world with a story, NPC vendors, and dynamic and responsive RPG-style system running it all, but we also have some traditional “RP” elements that GMod players are used to.
