I was not going to release this untill later today but word was let out that it was here so i might as well release it. I just had the chance to interview Chris Harris from Hostile Intent. Here is a little bit:
Half-Life Gaming: What is the hardest thing about creating a modification like this?
Christopher Harris: I think the major thing is the international team and managing them. We have people involved from both coasts of the USA and Canada all the way around the world to Spain, Germany, Denmark, and even Australia. It's definitely not your standard office work. We use a few ways to communicate but IRC is a kind of a safe haven for us.


Half-Life Gaming: What is your most unforgettable moment about Hostile Intent?
Christopher Harris: I think there are 2 moments... the first being our initial release of the mod back in January. The second is just from 1.3 itself. My Admin Assistant (AA) was collecting the files for the 1.3 installer. His connection was in the toilet as he was trying to upload. Now our Programmer lives in the same city as our AA and they decided, after some thought, to do a secondary form of file transferring, manual. The AA was first going to hope on his bicycle but instead the programmer drove the 20 minutes to the AA's and they met for the first time. They swapped files and 1.3 was released.
