For any open-minded source mod developers out there,I have a suggestion:
Arkane Studios was developing Half-Life 2 Episode 4,but in 2007,the project was abandoned (http://www.slashgear.com/alleged-half-life-2-episode-4-screenshots-surface-years-later-14265217/)but it would be a nice idea if someone would try and make a mod using these screenshots.I know there isn't any concept art asides from these screenshots,but it would make a valuable mod idea. ;-)
Awesome Engine!
