A team of enthusiasts is creating the first global modification for Metro 2033. The creation, called "Explorer", recently got a trailer showing locations, characters and skirmishes with mutants. Also, authors in "Mods: Metro 2033" on the social network "Vkontakte" talked about their plans.
The published video shows many different regions of dilapidated Moscow. Most likely, according to the plot of the mod, Artyom will have to spend a lot of time outside the subway tunnels, although underground locations are also shown in the trailer. Here the protagonist encounters mutants and engages in a shootout. The authors also showed the collection of objects, characters and a scene in a bar with Artyom's new acquaintances. Nothing is known about the story yet, but enthusiasts plan to write a separate story and voice the dialogues on their own.
The Explorer modification is being created by fans of the series who prefer not to call themselves developers. This is stated in an official statement published in the Vkontakte group. βThis is the first global mod for the game,β the authors said. βWe are not developers, many of us have never dealt with modifications and game creation before.β Enthusiasts also stated that the budget of the project is "0 rubles", and the production process lasts three months. The Explorer mod should be the beginning of the activities of the authors who plan to implement a lot of different ideas.
The release date of the large-scale creation has not yet been disclosed, as development is at an early stage. According to enthusiasts, they are creating a modification for Metro 2033, since the current toolkit is only suitable for the first part of the series. On the base they would not be able to create levels, write scripts and add their own voice acting.
