I find postnukerp's background confusing, because you have the whole nuclear disaster thing, but you have combine and combine technology everywhere, so I think it would be a good idea if there was some backstory to explain everything.

We have actually implemented our own story on our server that explains this.

there IS an official back story to the server. but they arnt telling it straight up for a few reasons.

There implementing small things that hint at a back story, and not telling a story dead on can help create a better atmosphere for the server making players think more into there own gameplay style.

It hints at the story behind everything.

And no, not going to reveal the story :P

Don't know exactly where, but yes, we have a back story, no we aren't making it obvious though. There'll be more information through new events.

So basically, if I ever make a map for the server (when I get round to doing it) I should take into account that the combine have been on the earth, so they would have left their stuff behind.

Yes, the combine tech was left behind and was salvaged by people who found it.

We're not really calling them combine, iirc, but yeah, the tech is left behind and just salvage now.
