Well it has been a busy past couple of weeks here at Troopers. While the development team has been hard at work making the next release, the media has been having a Troopers Blitz. To start it off, TechTV is once more running Troopers on the "The Screen Savers" LAN today. Last week was pretty interesting, once people got the IP of the server. Epic was having some Master Server issues at the time, so that turned out to be a problem. Well, now it's time for a rematch and this time Screen Savers, remember there are objectives on objective mode!
Next up we have the review of Troopers by Mod 'n Mod, the same group of guys who did an interview with our lead coder eXoR a small while back. You can find their review here. They've rated Troopers 2.1 an 8.7. Be sure to drop by and read the article if you aren't playing Troopers 2.1 yet. If you can't trust a rating like that, then who can you trust? Be sure to check out their screenshots section as well, in case you missed the X-Wing and TIE-Fighter pictures flying high above the Death Star.
And last for today, be sure to pick up the PC Gamer march edition. Yes that's right, the march edition. Last month we were mentioned as the mod of the month, but now PC Gamer has an entire article on mods you will most likely want to check out. This article includes mods on the Unreal Trounament 2003 engine, one of which happens to be Troopers: Dawn of Destiny (along with a nice picture if I do say so myself). Congratulations to the other mods who have made it into PC Gamer; if not in this article then before, such as Red Orchestra, Jungle Warfare and Shattered Oasis.
I should have more news in the coming weeks, so stay tuned and keep dropping by!
And as a special treat for everybody tonight, a little movie that you might find interesting. Keep in mind that both the map and vehicles are not complete as they take you on a quick ride in the dreaded trench!
