We are nearly at the end of 2022, this is the special time of the year when everyone needs to focus on their friends and loved ones, reflect on experiences and what has been achieved, and overall, plan ahead with grace.

It is pleasing for us to report that 2022 has seen a lot of development activity directed specifically at closing off many of the issues the QA team have logged, some useful Unreal Engine updates have been implemented, and we have replaced some default engine code to overcome a few gaps in its functionality that caused some ongoing issues. With this in mind, we are looking forward to bringing you some very exciting news during 2023.

We at FrozenSand wish you all a Merry Christmas full of rest and kind thoughts, and Happy New Year for 2023.

What was originally a Tipeee page to support the developer Barbatos has become a page to support Urban Terror!

For as low as a 1€ one-time or monthly recurring tip, you will get exclusive monthly perks such as development news and behind-the-scenes development screenshots and videos. Other perks include getting special access to a private channel on the official UrT Discord server to chat with the FS developers and watch live streams of UrT5 tests, or getting thanked in the game credits of the upcoming Urban Terror 5.

The tips collected will go exclusively towards funding the servers that host the Urban Terror website, auth system, master servers, UrT5 development and build machines.

FS Barbatos: Hey everyone!  There's some great news that I'd like to share with you! But first, to add some context... (there's a tl;dr at the end of the blog post!)  I've been feeling uneasy with my current full-time job as Software Developer for a little while now, and I think it really began during the first covid lockdown period that lots of us around the world had to experience in early 2020. At the tim […]

In the past year, Urban Terror celebrated its 21st birthday, and with that, we've made a small tribute to the history of UrT.

We also released the mapping plugin for Urban Terror 5: Resurgence, so community mappers could start learning and creating maps in UE4 for the next generation of this fantastic game.

And finally, here are community events you might be interested in. Happy fragging!

FS BladeKiller: It's been a while since my last blog so I thought I would show you how the first of the Asian characters is coming along. Her name is Jade. She is named for the beautiful snow-capped mountain that stands guard over her home town of Lijiang in Yunnan, China. Lijiang was an economic and transportation hub along the Ancient Tea Horse Road and its intricate system of waterways, as well as its location […]

FS Barbatos: I can't believe it's been 5 years since my last blog post!  Reading my past posts and watching the associated videos really made me realize how much we have achieved in the past few years. Urban Terror 5 is starting to look and feel better than we could have hoped back in 2014 when we scrapped the Urban Terror HD project, switched to Unreal Engine 4 and started everything from scratch.  This yea […]
