Arena][ is now in beta-testing. I took some screenshots for you all:

MUST HAVE ARENA ][... NOW! That makes me wish I had a job as a beta tester very much.

Very cool! Can't wait to get the PR!

ChaosJester, it is quite a privilege to be a beta tester but it isn't a cake walk. 8)

Will the PR include Area or is Arena][ replacing it?

:?: We didn't add a spear to the melee weapons.

If you're talking about this picture, that's the single bladed axe in there...

Actually I think it was the double-axe, but it ended up getting viewed edge-on, so it looks like a spear.

AWESOME!!!
Hey- would it be possible to add in another floor marker projector beside the chalk outline? Like a big bunch of blood splats? I always liked that as an idea for another option.

small tweak but a good idea ;)

Maybe we can use that for bloody kills? Cutter, melees, gibbings, etc, and either replace or add to the chalk outline for that? We should make it toggleable seperately from the chalk outlines in case there are people that want one but not the other.

Couldn't have said it better myself Hal ;)

Shadow, I've already given you my kind words about this map so I guess it wouldn't hurt to say it again... Bar none, this is the funnest and best Duel map to date keep up the great work buddy :twisted:

I too like this idea. I don't really care for the outlines but more blood splats wouldn't hurt ;)

The PR will contain Arena and Arena2 (but don't hold me on this since I am not 100% sure.).

I agree with |GoD|Plaguelord|LDR| about this.

I understand Its not a cake walk. Its that I want Arena][ bad and I am only seeing screens. I have a high regard for those who make Chaos, and want the new version to be out now, but am willing to wait til it is releasable. The map screens just override that feeling.

From what I've heard so far, Arena ][ is virtually bug-free, its just incomplete. There are just a few little things I need to do before it will be ready to go, so I doubt there's any chance that it won't make it into the PR.
