Hey guys, i used to play Chaos for the original UT, but just got UT2003 after a two year break, and am pleasantly surprised to find the work well underway for the UT2003. However, since im not really up to speed and i would assume other first time visitors would not be, is there a current list of whats completed/being worked on/expected to be released in the first public version? And if not, is there any chance of a sticky post containing them? I looked around but couldnt find what seemed to be an official list, so feel free to correct me if one exists.

Thanks and keep up the good work

Ok, give me some time, and I'll come back here later this morning and give you what I can. There is some info here and there, but sure...., I can give you another update right here.

Working on a news post for the site, and I'll return to update you when I'm finished. (unless somebody beats me to it

)

Thanks again

Well, this one is not so good for me personally, but that's beside the point.

Other than the screw up I owned up to, it's a good news post.

Ah nice to hear R.Flagg

Just two questions:
a) what are these logo things you lost? EDIT: nm found it in the news archive on main site
b) Just for my personal amusement, any plans for a turrent? And since i hear that the new game has a vehicle system, are there any plans to develop a small sidemod utilizing them?

Oh, and hi Loq. Im doing good, figured 2 years playing everquest was enough for me and that it was time to move on. Just as luck would have it there was a new UT game waiting for me

Oh, and unlike last time, i doubt ill have to spam the boards for sig help this time around

Just so you know, I've started to put BETA pics of our new version in the screenshots section of our web site. Only a few so far, but more will come.

Also, I got this one sent in to me;

Looks like he's got our ChaosUT2 logo there on his cell phone! Hehe, cool.

Thanks to Badmonkey for sending in the pic!

Oh yeah,

Just for my personal amusement, any plans for a turrent? And since i hear that the new game has a vehicle system, are there any plans to develop a small sidemod utilizing them?

You can rest assured we will have turrets. They may not make it into BETA 1, but just today DJ mentioned in the Chaos IRC that he's looking into them. Catch him there sometime and he could probably tell you how they are going.

How many types, and what features they will have is still being discussed.

HAHAHAHA thats really cool.

BTW- that page of BETA pics would have had a few more pics on it already, but LoQtUS did not put the map preview pics on the net that he said he would.

If he would come off some pics, we'd have another CTF map to show.

I mentioned this in an email to R.Flagg, but is there any chance of having an option for my-team-only visible spray paint? If you wanted to make up a storyline reason it could be that the glasses/goggles people wear can see an invisible dye or some such.

Anyways would be useful in CTF like maps so you could have a teammate put arrows or something to show someone not experienced with the map the way around.
