ahh nice stuff Skjalg, I'll make sure to download it this time

looks fun

Arrrrrrrrrr!!! Finally the battle can go on.

[Skjalg]

most of the focus for the mappers for this release has been to polish the existing maps a hell of a lot more to reduce fps issues. I feel I've accomplished that a lot

[Mazy]

I tried the first release and actually had some good fun for a few hours. Doesn't really look like there is that much new though, apart from that new map.

Might check it out if I get the time~

[Skjalg]

tsk!

We've redone the whole combat system and how it registers hits, plus doubled the amount of classes!

not that much new pfff!!!

Awesome, glad to see a new release of this as it was very entertaining for a few lunch hours. I'll definately give it another try. New classes look like fun, the new maps (or map) look rather sexy, and if it's undergone other general polish I've no doubt it'll be a really solid release.

What the hell was that "The release that will change the face of modding" bullshit in the video though? Ill advised...

Looks like great fun!

haha it was a pun on all the other mods that take themselves waaaaaay to seriously

Innstaller is ready and set, now we're just waiting for the date to get here : - )

next time, upload it for Stage6 as well, just in case people are interested in seeing a version with slightly more quality! (instead of downloading the video file)

Nevertheless, this mod is looking ace! Great job

Thank christ for that Might have been wise to have a follow up message that made it clear it was a joke though, as to me it just read as the ridiculous PR bullshit that you were actually trying to mock. But then maybe I'm just slow Looking forward to playing it on Thursday!
