Upcoming Release 6.0 - MadNad - 13th Nov 2007 21:15
Teaser shots and game information.
Though most do not know it, Kinetic Studios has continued development since the release of version 5.0 back in November of 2004. The size of the team has decreased, but the overall quality and experience of the MOD has not. There have been so many changes since version 5.0, that Troopers plays and feels like a new game. The resulting overall experience is a highly polished objective based gameplay packed full of action. Be sure to check out the screenshots section. More will be added.
We are proud to finally announce a release date November 16, 2007, this upcoming Friday. If you were looking for a reason to keep UT2004 installed, this is it!
Here are a few bullet points for the upcoming release:
All existing maps have been updated. Dawn of Endor, Endor Assault, Dagaboh, Carbon Freeze, Bespin Pads and Massassi Temple have been converted to the Troopers Objective gametype. Deathmatch and Capture the Flag gametypes have been removed.
The overhead map system has been heavily modified to allow for dynamic zooming of more detailed overheads.
Ironsights replace crosshairs for Trooper weapons.
Scouts can call in Y-Wing or Tie Bomber Air Strikes using their binoculars.
All weapons and arm models and animations have been either completely redone, or heavily modified.
New weapons have been added, including the Merr-Sonn PLX, portable rocket launcher, the E-Web heavy repeating blaster, and medic weapons that can be set for stun.
Two new maps have been added: SpaceStation ( a space fighter map ) and Rebels seize control of an Imperial Star Destroyer in ISD-Incursion.
A squad system has been implemented. Working together as a squad will benefit everyone in the squad. Scouts increase stamina and speed, Troopers increase armor ratings, Medics aura heal over time, Engineers improve hacking and capturing objective times, and Gunners increase damage dealt from blasters.
New Space Fighters have been added: A-Wing, Y-Wing and Tie Bombers. The X-Wing was completely remodeled.
Full bot support for all maps, including space fighter support.
