Duke Nukem Forever type soon (j/k)
It will be very soon. We have progressed quiet rapidly since starting it. I anticipate by the end of September or sooner.
There are hints in both the name and the slogan

Im assuming it has to do somthing with both zombies and nukes?
so....its like zom_db....except u need to find the nuke codes and put em in a computer terminal
am i right? :o
Maybe its an alien invasion.....but who knows?
i suppose we will have to leave it until screenshots of the mods footage have been released....or the mod itself

So I've been thinking. Sing they have don primarily unrealistic mods so far this one will either be a realism type mod, or it will be another off the walls bat $4i! crazy one... I've been doing research (ty google) and have come up with the following...
http://www.krikkit.dk/download/gurps/gurps_hitloc.pdf
A table for random hit location. Coincidence, I THINK NOT!
http://www.samaylive.com/news/mumbai-strikes-hit-loc-bus-services/600954.html
This chilling story reminds us all that bus travel is never safe, but doesn't really have anything to do with the mod =)
However from all the research I've done so far I'm led to believe (via all the source code for various video games I've found) That there will either be vehicles implemented, or it will be a crazy game of skill and hitting people in the right place at the right time. Sorta like the old Boss fights "SHOOT THE GLOWING RED THING! IT"S HIZ WEEK POYNT!"
So yeah... We'll see..

Aliens, zombies, nukes, boss fights and driving buses...
We were considering creating a game where you must drive a bus, with a nuke on it, above a certain speed limit. This bus was provided by aliens who need to wipe out the human race due to a control centre being overrun by zombies. You were going to have to drive said bus to the core of this control centre through masses of zombies and boss zombies and hit a specific location within it, which would blow up the bus and launch various nukes across the globe...
After careful consideration, we decided that this was too unrealistic.
HitLoc, and the slogan "There is Hardcore, and then there is HitLoc" was meant to make it pretty clear that this was going to be our take on a hardcore mod. For anybody who likes MGS, this is the European Extreme mode. It's easiest to think of Hardcore as the new Softcore, and HitLoc as the new Hardcore.
The beans have been spilled, so as not to overhype it with these crazy ideas 
It is simply our take on how hardcore should have been. It will be compatible with all core game types.

Too unrealistic? yes, but could be pretty awesome? YES! imo
However the work for AI scripts might be really annoying, ive always dreamed of a campaign-like mod that is extremily hard to do and takes teamwork to the next level, boy boy i wish i could make one of those....lol
In my opinion, it doesnt matter if its too unrealistic, just make sure it aint easy and its frustrating and fun!
like shooting Mary Poppins zombies! (idk why i said that)
but ooh...i wanna be a Sneaky Russian!
anyway, i hope its good :)

I think that toobs should be ELIMINATED!!! I hate noob tubes.... I think u should implement some of the location damage from obs such as legs being blown off from nades like when u get knifed in the foot in obs and then u can only crawl. That would be cool and a lot more realistic. And i suggest keeping the 4th perk cause that was a MAJOR part of the ob mod and one of the best. My main point is that u whould try to implement a lot of the stuff from the ob mod cause that had some of the best stuff in it. But if u dont implement location damage it will make me really mad although it probably wont ruin the mod cause u guys do REALLY good at mods. Wow that was long...

HitLoc...split the word apart, and you should get an idea of one of our main focuses with the mod
Also, tubes can be edited to be great. Check out the tubes in Obs. Although I'm not sure we will carry those tubes across, it is pretty clear that we aim to make the guns more balanced then core COD.
As for the other things, it is our reworking of Hardcore, so you may see a cool feature or two from Obscurity, but they are not related as Describe said.
HitLoc is "our" hardcore mode, as such don't expect to be seeing new weapons or perks, but rather new balances, and visual elements and NO HUD!

There is plenty of HUD in hardcore mode. Expect to see a sexy HUDless screen in HitLoc. Also prepare to start counting your shots and timing your reloads so as not to waste those precious bullets.

Sorry for the lack of updates guys. We are busy as usual, but I have been attempting my hand at programming and succeeding whilst Falcar is busy studying for exams. Here are some details for you all.
HitLoc will provide a "beyond hardcore" experience. Complete HUD removal, recreated effects, reworking a couple of the perks, and weapons.
The main feature will be the HitLoc system. You now have life per limb, so spamming a limb with bullets will not kill a player but rather cripple or make them unable to hold guns. If a limb takes enough damage, you can bleedout and die. At this stage you will be dripping blood everywhere right before you die. Blood trails notify players that need healing. They will bleed from the limbs that are currently fully damaged.

Hoping to implement a DVAR to set class restrictions :P eg. Everyone must use snipers, everyone must use shotguns etc. But we will see whether it makes it in before release or after. (Just to mix it up here and there like the good old PD64 days)

Thought about adding an extensive leveling system for HitLoc? Like up to 400? Every 50 levels or so you get a single bonus of some kind. Something that gives you a tiny edge. But something realistic. Like a bullet direction indicator (They do have these) that lets you know which direction you were shot at from. maybe a perk to carry more explosives or even more ammo. I'll look up actual military stuff they have later. But just a thought. I love the realism mods, but once you play for a while you get in a rut. But with 400 levels, and unlockables it tends to stay fresh a little longer. I know you're probably apposed to the idea. And again I'm not saying like AT LEVEL 400 YOU GET JET PACKZ AND FORCE FEELDS! I'm just saying tiny things that would give you an edge. Like being able to scope in to a sniper faster or something. Or have combination perks available. Like once you get to a certain point you can get a combined dead silence and extreme cond. type thing? I don't know. Food for thought ^.^ I'm sure you've thought of it all already =)

i like spiders idea! increasing the level cap would make the game last a bit longer... and give the ability to strike fear into the hearts of all the little people with your level 400 account!!!!
even if you don't give extra little perks (i wouldn't be against it) a level cap increase might be nice.

Then again, i do love it when noobs complain to tripleg when he has way more kills than anyone else, one time this guy was like TRIPLE IS HACKING, BAN HIM! one of the people who was in the clan server got him banned instead, we were laughing XD

It is definately worth looking into now that we have the normal levelling system in place. Not sure about custom perks and stuff as rewards though. Perhaps just a rank to say "Look, I play this mod often so don't mess with me noobs".

HitLoc Pre-Release Trailer #1
We probably won't add extra rank levels, but I will check into it none-the-less. HitLoc will not be adding new perks, but rather weapon balances, locational damage, reworked perks and no HUD to provide a more immersive hardcore experience based off the core game.

Thanks for taking the leveling into consideration Snakelet =)
And I didn't mean custom perks per say. Just something along those lines. Even something like, at level 400 you get 1 more perk to use. And don't make it overpowered, just something small. And I know 400 seems extensive. But when that level 400 walks into a game on a server, sporting their special little tag or little icon floating above them that indicates death. It's just pretty cool =) And you can make the leveling process as slow and painfully arduous as you would like ^.^
OH IDEA! just thought, and I don't know if it's possible to do this by linking to character level. But is it possible to link what level an account is to what player skin they are assigned in game? So like a level 400 is using the SpecOps sweet ass skin and everyone else is running around in the lesser skins? Just a question. I know that is probably a GSC thing and it would have to be reworked or especially made to work that way. But I know you know it better than we do.
That's all for now ^.^

that would b cool. can u make it so u can turn on you ghillie suit?
maybe it enhaces the perks? like extreme condit at lvl 300 makes your run 10%further, SOH - 10% quicker reloads? or somethign along those lines? cmores and explosives have a bit more power?

Yeah, it probably isn't too difficult, but I had a talk to Falcar about it and I don't think we will be increasing ranks, or changing anything in that regards at present. Our focus at the moment is to get it out to you people to play it, with everything we want achieved gameplay wise included.

Sounds great! I know I can't wait for it! I know it will be amazing. Your mods are very balanced and have such emphasis on tweaking and cleaning up the inner workings of the game. I just adore them. Hope to see it soon!

No plans at present. The plan for HitLoc is to improve upon the hardcore experience, for those who feel it is currently lacking in it's core state. Some perks and weapons will be reworked and some will be removed, but it is unlikely that any of the perk 4's included in Obscurity will be in HitLoc. The focus is on recreating the damage system so that it is more realistic.
People don't want to die because they got shot in a limb. They want to fight on and try take out a few more guys before they drop. Sure, it would be painful to be hit in a limb, but as a guess I think you could survive a fair few limbs shot before losing too much blood and dying. So for HitLoc, the focus is on locational damage and blood loss.

curving bullets like in wanted :D
you could have like say something like when you spawn you choose either say:
heavy gunner
spec ops
sniper
demo
like those are the people, and then you choose the class. each charector dude have strengths and weaknesses e.g heavy gunner, more powerful/stronger but he will be slower. sniper may be faster and accurate but less health or soemthing?

Why, you got hit by a bullet. Core COD4 hardcore you would die, HitLoc, you have a chance, just run off and hide. It comes back after like 12-15 seconds, usually perfect timing to own the guy hunting you with shotgun to the face. I like it, it induces panic and lures the attacker into a false sense of security. Just run like crazy, hide, then blast em once your gun returns.

You will however still be bleeding after those 12+ seconds. So you will need a heal, especially if you are bleeding out due to being hit in the arms too much, otherwise...well...you bleed out and die.

just a thought that popped into my head.... and now i must know the answer...
would it be possible to turn all the melons into equippable objects that can be thrown at your enemies that would upon impact cause severe dizyness and loss of vision due to obscuring melony flesh and pips!?!??!
as kinda like a last resort once your out of ammo :D

Yeah HitLoc is coming along fairly well
As for Xbox, I'm currently playing through Bayonetta, Darksiders, Assassins Creed 2, and Resident Evil 5 coop with my partner. Will probably have Mass Effect 2 added to that list soon.
On wii, I'm playing through New Super Mario Bros Wii with my partner.
On PS3 I'm working on Demon's Souls, which is a pretty awesome game.

cant remember if i said this but dunno if his would work but say u get attribute points each lvl or somethign that u add towards:
-strength
-stamina

so that each category like reduces recoil, makes u run faster or longer

It would be a good idea, but we prefer to give everyone an even playing field so that your gameplay skills determine how good you are, not character stats.

ah true, just thought it would give more defined pple. but on that note does each claas (sniper, lmg, heavy gunner, smger, assault) based on their main gun) do they have their own set of stats? or are they basicalll all the same

The weapon they use or the damage they have taken determines their attributes. Some guns are heavier then others, so player will move relevant to what they are carrying, even if that weapon that is slowing them is stowed away.
We may be working on a class based system with pre-defined kits for hitloc further down the track. (Eg. A tank class, medic class; but much better than just those)

cool beans.
i was playing a while ago and when i zoomed in on a gun it didnt really zoom in any , just move the sights to a bit. i no in real life they dont zoom in butit should take up a bit more of the scrren or something cause they seem so small. i think its also the FoV.

Yeah, there is no zoom on normal iron sights. Acog is x2 and Snipers are x6 I believe.
Update: Woot! Epic changes to claymores and satchels are inbound!

Team Fortress 2, is nothing compared to HitLoc.
Have a go at playing HitLoc with some mates one day, and you'll find it really is quite enjoyable

Never played Team Fortress so meh. But having the ability to switch off the motion detect of the clays so your teammates can get past without getting killed is handy. As in our mod clays are tripped by anybody, they do not have a brain, so they can't detect which team a person is on and trigger accordingly.
If you are referring to that class thing I said, well we woulda had like 20 classes...but we are steering away from that now.

Did you assign the thief button and try it out? I don't think you did...
Also, scavenge fits perfectly in COD6, with all the other overpowered spam perks. No need for it here.

Stomach: Internal bleeding and blackouts,
Legs: Cripple (Cannot stand up)
Hands: Hand & arm injury (Cannot use weaponry)
Head: Death (You are dead, so watch the killcam)
Bleeding out: Limb or multiple limbs have taken too much damage. You will eventually bleed to death if not healed. The process speeds up whenever you take more damage.
All of these can be combined allowing some torture if necessary. These injuries cause blood loss from specified limb. Each condition above cause blood trails to occur to notify temamates that they need to heal you.
Non-Permanent Injuries:
Legs: Trip over or loss of sprint for # time.
Arms: Drop gun or loss of guns for # time.
Concussion: Impaired vision for # time.
