Urban Terror To Go Stand-Alone With Enemy Territory

Posted by simoniker on Thursday January 29, 2004 @04:39PM from the more-good-free-stuff dept.

RogeR writes "Silicon Ice Development, authors of the popular Urban Terror mod for Quake 3 Arena, will be porting their mod over to recently made modifiable PC title Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. They have been discussing this for a while now with id Software and Splash Damage, and have decided to move forward with their plans. Basically, this means Urban Terror will, when conversion is finished, become a free stand-alone game, using Enemy Territory's beefed-up Quake 3 engine. Oswald, the project manager, said: 'Those people who complained of legit keys or not being able to find Quake 3 - rejoice, you will be able to play'."

urban terror vs counterstrike by errgh · 2004-01-29 17:21 · Score: 4, Insightful

while somewhat similar I think that urban terror, with not much of a userbase now, will explode with this info. being free it should go crazy at Pc cafes' where they usually have illegal copies of halflife anyways, now they can support a free good game. dundundun
