It's time for you to "get in the game" as Urban Terror and Clanbase gear up for another cup season. The sign ups for the Spring 2007 Open Cup have been extended through Sunday, March 25. Currently the Cup Supervisors are planning on using the upcoming release for the entire cup. This is great! So if you were waiting for an announcement on the release, I suggest you get your clan signed up immediately.

Unlike previous Open Cups, this season the featured game mode will be Bomb & Defuse. This decision was not solely a supervisor decision, but one backed by the Urban Terror gamers who participate in Clanbase. For more information and news on the upcoming Spring 2007 Open Cup visit Clanbase or #clanbase.q3.ut and talk to dan or holden.

It's been a busy week for the development team and the QA testers as the development cycle is nearing the end. We told you there there was a light at the end of this tunnel. After a late cancellation last week Urban Radio returns on Saturday, March 24 beginning at 14PDT/17EST/21GMT/22CET. This is a 2-hour later start than the regular schedule!.

We have a great show on tap with news and notes from the development team, as well as some insight from a big QA test last week.  We have another level update for you and a special piece from an old school Clanbase match you don't want to miss! Finally, we will bring you a top ten list. All that and a few twists and turns through the wonderful world of Urban Terror.

The show will be streamed live on Inside the Game and Stickam for those wanting to watch the show live! With any luck we will record the video this week and it will be provided for playback at your convience.

All that and the latest news from the Urban Terror home front! If you are not able to catch the show live, all casts are made available on the 'Downloads' section at Radio iTG (no registration required). Information contained in the show will be posted in a Radio Roundup news post following the show. Watch for upcoming show information or type !radio in #urbanterror on ETG.

Want one more chance to win a cup title playing Urban Terror 3.7? Okay, so that is more of a rhetorical question since we know you want the new version of Urban Terror. Rest assured we are doing our best to pack up the final pieces and release it.

But in the meantime, why not check out the Spring 2007 2on2 Hosted Cup sponsored by Novamania. Signups are open until March 23, currently 17 clans are participating.

This will be a 2v2 Team Survivor gametype with eLJot and D-men as your Supervisors, while J0E at FROServers will be providing the GTV experience. For more information visit Clanbase

Similar to the video tour last weekend on Urban Radio, we have created a few new videos. While the quality if adequate, hopefully these videos will give you some idea what to expect as we close in on the release date (still yet unannounced).

The videos feature Austria, Elgin, Mandolin, Thingley and a new interior from Turnpike. Yes, we are aware the quality of these short videos are not the best, but it will allow you an inside look at the upcoming releae of Urban Terror.

To access the levels, you need to go to the Urban Radio page and click on 'VIDEOS' it will allow access the the five videos we have put together. We will plan on a few more shorts before the release.

Well, the good news, Urban Radio was live and uncensored yesterday with Oswald filling the community in on all the details for the yet announced release of Urban Terror (v4.0 if you are keeping score at home). The bad news, sort of a double whammy, there was no release date annouced (yet, it's coming...honest!) and the live video tour of Urban Terror did have a few technical issues.

All in all, many were still excited about the show and the fact they got to see some of the new levels, such as Mandolin, Elgin and Tombs. Gamers also got to look at what the development team calls, "fun stuff" that include unique items you can outfit your player with. We talked a little bit about the ability to pull up in game statistics during the round, as well as a plethora of other news from the world of Urban Terror.

If you missed the and would like to listen to it recorded, you can download the 03 March show from FileCloud. The show notes are also availble for download. If you don't want to waste any time, you can head to Urban Radio on Stickam Video and listen to the show immediately. I am also working on some new video features, we hope to implement in the future, but for now we will remain with iTG and Stickam until further details are worked out.

Join Oswald as he takes you "inside the game" with Urban Radio, the show that centers on all things Urban Terror. The show returns for the second time in three weeks, as more information continues to swirl within the community, as well as with the development team. The feeling around the FrozenSand office is one of jubilation and glee (hmm..must be an Aussie thing). Urban Radio is scheduled for Saturday, March 03 beginning at 12PST/15EST/20GMT/21CET.

As with past shows, we ask for community participation. Each week, we will (hopefully) showcase a community server as the Urban Radio Server of the Week. I missed out on this last week (sorry MidgetKiller) due to the excitement of the show returning. Stay tuned, we might be using a 3.7 from the community week depending on our special video feature.

This week we could have a special Urban Radio VIP tour of the new release. We know there has been a high demand for video from the new version. Near the end of 2006, we released a 'powersliding demo', courtesy of woekele that got the community talking. With any luck, you will be able to view the show and live, ingame video using Stickam Video. You will just need to be watching the show in order to check out the video.

You now have two ways to tune in to Urban Radio. The audio stream, courtesy of Inside the Game and our new video stream from Stickam Video. Both shows will be archived and the show will fill a 90 minute time slot. I can hear the rejoicing already, no more bad music from Oswald.

All that and the latest news from the Urban Terror home front! If you are not able to catch the show live, all casts are made available on the 'Downloads' section at Radio iTG (no registration required). Information contained in the show will be posted in a Radio Roundup news post following the show. Watch for upcoming show information or type !radio in #urbanterror on ETG.

Urban Radio returned to Inside the Game and the Urban Terror Community since August, 2006. Yesterday's show was a first, as Oswald was providing live video feed of show courtesy of Stickam. The burning question in the community's mind is "When is Urban Terror being released?" While we did not directly answer that question, there was a timeframe of sorts set.

URBAN RADIO - SATURDAY 17 FEBRUARY 12PST/15EST/20GMT

Today's show will be a first in the 6 years I have been doing Urban Radio. We will have the first streaming videocast of Urban Radio. Spent a fwe hours last night working out some of the issues, so hopefully this will come through. For those who would rather listen we will have the audio only stream as well.

Join Oswald as he takes you "inside the game" with Urban Radio, the show that centers on all things Urban Terror. The show has been on hiatus since August, but with an influx of information and the impending release of the new version of Urban Terror, we are feeling "giddy" around the FrozenSand offices.

As with past shows, we ask for community participation. Each week, we will (hopefully) showcase a community server as the Urban Radio Server of the Week. Hopefully this will be the final show using a 3.7 server, so if you would like to donate a server for some gameplay, e-mail oswald@planetquake.com.

We are also working to provide a live videocast of the show, as well as the audio stream, with any luck this show be ready to go by the end of the week. More information on that later in the week or on the day of the show.
