If you’ve played a lot of GoldSrc mods you surely must’ve heard about Firearms. If not, think of CS style gameplay without the round/bomb game modes and a lot more realism. From what I remember years ago the idea is you’d have a lot of guns, fun loadouts, and an interesting damage system. You also had perks which allowed you to splint broken legs or fire mortars at targets designated by teammates. A bit more complex than your average shooter, but I enjoyed that complexity.
The last things I recall from it’s sequel, Firearms Source, were the model showcases, probably before any actual code was put down. I thought the mod just lost momentum and got forgotten (like some other mod I wish had made the cut), but today I was surprised by this video.
It’s free, it’s out, so it’s worth a shot. Go get the mod now.
