It's been nearly 100 years since The Chosen One known as Caleb last did battle with - and defeated - the Dark God. The century since his victory has been anything but pleasant and as Blood II opens, we find him walking the streets of an industrial wasteland. To the Cabal, he is the Great Betrayer; the power over which he fought the Dark God is still at arm's length. In a flash of dark epiphany, he realizes what must be done: he will resurrect the other three Chosen - Ophelia, Gabriella, and Ishmael - and use their combined power to wrest control from the Cabal. To his bitter surprise, he'll soon discover that the Cabal is the smallest obstacle between him and ultimate power. Features: - LithTech Engine. Next generation 3D engine with dynamic lighting and terrain mapping allow for a totally realistic environment. - Enter 30+ action-filled, terror-laced, goal and story-based levels. Every level is a piece of the story and has a purpose that the player must understand to defeat the game. - Control one of four, fully 3D modeled characters, two females and two males, each with their own abilities you can fully modify, in a dark near future reminiscent of The Crow and Blade Runner. - A realistic world that the player can affect. Blow up walls, knock down buildings and scar surfaces with bullets. - Destroy 3D modeled enemies with 18 different weapons and spells: The Flayer, The Decapitator, even old favorites like the infamous Voodoo Doll and the improved Flare Gun. - Full 3D accelerator hardware support for screaming frame rates in high resolution and color. - Complex death scene system allows players to blow off limbs and body parts dynamically adding infinite variety to the already tons of death scenes that will exist. - Weather effects, including Wind, Rain, Fog and Blood Rain. - Tons of multiplayer options, including Bloodbath, co-op, Capture the Flag, and Teamplay.

The Faction is hardly a month old and a certain Faction member group has already blatantly broken a guideline. We compromised on the disk limit issue as long as certain guidelines regarding rip quality were addressed. One of those guidelines (Faction guideline #2) was that ALL game levels be included in any given CD-RIP, as LEVELS represent a game component necessary for a game to be deemed functionally and playably sound. Assuming all Faction member parties were now clear on the guidelines EACH AND EVERY one of them openly agreed to, we took a step forward; only to be pulled two steps back by RAZOR's release SIN. 50 x 2.88 MB with DEATHMATCH levels removed would qualify as a "CD-RAPE" and is clearly a blatant disregard for the agreed upon rules; not to mention a blatant disregard for common sense. As if the majority of end-users don't enjoy First Person Shooters for their multiplayer components and playability. What does this say about RAZOR? Well their tradition of breaking and or creating rules for their own gain has gone unchanged and unmatched over their four year non-existance. It is nothing less than unacceptable, and PARADIGM shares similar displeasure in regard to RAZOR going back on their word. To RAZOR we say, shape up and start ripping or ship out and spare us your rapes. ú Ä -ú-ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ--úÄ Ä ú [ F A C T I O N M a n i f e s t o ] In lieu of recent events contributing to the breakdown of the now defunct S.P.A. (Software Piracy Association), a private meeting between the key contributing and contending groups was held. On October 15th, 1998 an agreement and compromise was reached between the 3 attending parties, CLASS, PARADIGM and RAZOR 1911. Let it be known that this type of compromise could not be achieved under the S.P.A. environment; it took a clean break to accomplish in a day what had previously gone unaccomplished in 2 months. The end result being a new council whose sole purpose is to set standards for the game-releasing subsector of the scene, to be adhered to by all admitted parties. Represented members of this new council named THE FACTION, have pledged to abide by the following set of rules created a) to ensure a quality minded end result and b) to encourage fair play and a productive competitive environment for involved groups. The Faction 10 Point Program: 1. The disk limit is as of now 50 x 2.88 megabytes or 2,915,328 bytes. This equates to a total of 144 megabytes of compressed data or 145,766,400 bytes. Using 2.88 megabyte archives enables us to keep the standard 8 character filename with a 3 character extension. This will also help contribute to the elimination of the 'missing disk' phenomenon, plaguing end-users worldwide. Acceptable compression formats at this time are ACE or RAR, followed by the traditional PKZIPing. 2. Every release under this limit will be a functionally and playably complete game. This means that included will be every component necessary for the successful completion of the game (every level, track, course and other NECESSARY component). 3. Sound effects WILL and MUST be included. 4. Intros, Outros and Cut-Scenes should be removed if the size of the release is 40 x 2.88 disks or more with them included. Intros should NOT be iuncluded in a Movie Add-On, only Cut-Scenes and Outro (aka End-Scene) should be included. Animation files, such as .SMKs, should be "framed" and not blacked out. Re-indexing of large files, should consist of an actual re-index instead of just creating a file full of 0's, (which doesn't change the actual file size, but allows it to compress to virtually nothing), thus promoting more quality minded rips and cracks. 5. Only 2 Add-Ons should be released per game. Each Add-On should be no more than 25 x 2.88 megabyte archives. 6. A brief outline of what has been stripped from the game should be clearly stated in the game-release .NFO, as well as information as to whether or not Add-Ons can be expected. 7. Children's games (aka Kiddie games) and Edutainment software do not qualify under THE FACTION's guidelines for acceptable releases. 8. In regard to games distributed in the United States that are LATER distributed in Europe or vice versa under the same or different name / publisher. These games if released AFTER another group's release are counted as DUPES unless it can be proven that there is a clearly noticeable PLAYABLE difference in the latter release (eg. new levels, enhanced graphics, or other new features). 9. Fully cracked Update Patches and Trainers are highly regarded, though they are not the responsibility of any group (including that of which released the original game.) If 2 trainers from the same or different groups are released for 1 game, this does NOT qualify as a dupe unless the latter trainer provides no new features over the prior trainer. 10. Admittance to THE FACTION is done on an invite / vote-in basis. The group invitation must be proposed before ALL current FACTION member- group representatives, and the corresponding vote must be undertaken by ALL FACTION member-group representatives. This council operates in a purely democratic manner and all parties therein have upon joining, agreed to follow all stated guidelines of this Declaration of Scene Independence. Today is not only a new dawn in the games scene, but our Independence Day where differences are at least temporarily put aside and our unity re-consolidated.
