Urban Terror For Quake 3 Revealed
nukem996 writes "The Silicon Ice development team has just released Urban Terror 3.0 Beta, a great realistic team-based urban warfare Quake III total conversion." The 322mb download includes "...completely new code for lag compensation, hit detection, physics... and a fully integrated UI", and there are multiple download mirrors listed on the official site, plus a BitTorrent link from Filerush.com - good to see there's still some quality Quake III mods, even after Epic's financial inducements to mod Unreal Tournament instead.
I'm surprised that this mod gets so much publicity while the excellent TrueCombat seems to get less.
I think quite a few people have worked on both mods, and I prefer TrueCombat.
They released a new version recently:

It has a more realistic feel IMO, and I think the models are better. It doesn't have lots of maps though. They even seem to have removed a few maps from the most recent version (unless I am mistaken) that's a shame because some of the old maps were really good, I can't see why they did that.
