We are now ready to host the BETA stage of the new recoil and firing system. Everyone is invited!

To play test the BETA you must have the latest version (4.2.018) and follow these steps:


We've prepared a few servers with different gametypes for the BETA:


You can view this list of servers on the internal server browser of the game.

We also have a private server available for clans who wish to make a competitive match. Just contact us on IRC for an appointment.

To revert back to version 4.2.018 simply run the Updater or follow these steps:


Your feedback is greatly appreciated! So please leave us your constructive feedback in our forums!Happy fragging!

A radical new change has been made to UrbanTerror and is going to change the way you play forever! The weapon firing, spread and recoil system has been re-coded for a what-you-see-is-what-you-get hit system where pure skill will be rewarded and thus no more lucky shots!

We have also listened to the community and we did some weapon balancing including a point-blank-no-Kevlar-one-shot-one-kill SPAS and a no-penalty SR8!

We will run a community beta test of the system in a couple of weeks. Check back for more details. So prepare your skills, forget spray-and-pray and make sure you do not miss out on this beta test where you will never shout the dreaded 'HITS!' again!

And what better way to help them cheer in the anniversary than by brandishing your guns and getting down and dirty in the competition.

Signups close on February 2 and the competitions are open to everyone. If you don't have a team of your own, feel free to follow the season's competitions along with the XVIIth edition of NationsCup, currently hosted at Urban Zone.

Get ready! 4.2.018 has been released tonight Saturday January 25 at 22:00 CET. This release has the potential fix to the fps drops, so we have worked hard to get it out before the Nations Cup starts on Monday.

Changelog

We know you have been waiting for this day for a long time, and we apologise it took this long! We are sending cheaters packing their bags! Its been a long road partly due to some complications of leaked files that made us verify the integrity of the anti-cheat system. Today we are happy to announce that all systems have been verified and we can now release the detected cheaters between versions 4.2.015 and 4.2.017.

We have been working closely with Urban Zone League and have given them priority updates and early access to this list already. In future we hope other leagues will join a special early access group.

The NationsCup has always been the high point of competitive Urban Terror but it was uncertain whether or not it would be held this year due to the problems at ClanBase. Unfortunately they could not be resolved in time. Urban Zone has stepped in and offered to host it. Sotone, the CB game supervisor, has joined Urban Zone to make sure the NC will run smoothly.

Normally the run up to the NationsCup starts in December with the captain applications however due to the issues there is now a time constraint. In order to catch up the application period is shortened to January 5th, 2014. You can find more information on how to apply as captain of your nation on the Urban Zone website.

FrozenSand has worked hard to fix the autobalance bug and is happy to release the fix in 4.2.017. Please note that dmaHD is turned on by default so if you prefer the older sound engine remember to turn it off from the sound menu.
