Grab a briefcase, fend off enemies, and climb the scoreboard. This gameplay offers several different scoring modes, such as holding a briefcase for the longest time, getting kills while holding a briefcase, and a mix of the two.
Download and Installation
To install, start by downloading and extracting the zip file. Drag and drop the contents of “gesource” into your GoldenEye: Source folder. Override any file conflicts if prompted. Once installed, you can select Hold the Briefcase from the “Create Server” menu or through the developer console by using the command “ge_gameplay HoldTheBriefcase”.
Gameplay
Once the round begins, one or more briefcases will spawn around the map. Unlike The Living Daylights, you can still use other weapons while holding a briefcase. Depending on the scoring mode, you earn points by scoring kills, scoring kills while holding the briefcase, or holding the briefcase without dying.
