D.I.P.R.I.P. is a Half-Life 2 multiplayer total conversion. Gameplay is based on vehicle combat in various post-war environments. Vehicles use multiple weapon mounts which are activated by finding weapons scattered around the battle grounds. Planned game types are deathmatch, teamdeathmatch and capture the flag. There will also be a possibility to enable players to upgrade their vehicles' weapons and subsystems through the use of a 'money for damage' system.
Downloaded and played it, it's jerky and a bit annoying if you don't know quite what you're doing, but could be rather awesome if it was fixed and with 5punk.
Having played it for all of 3 mins my first impression is that the steering is fucking horrible. It only seems to let you change direction by increments of 20 degrees and with a slight delay once you hit the key.
The rest seems okay but without decent vehicle control there's not much point.
