Today is your lucky day z4taN!
We started the cast by taking a look at UT4 and a special look at CTF-Azcanize.
The scaling is awesome and it feels great. We are all excited to try out this map in a proper play test.
We then followed it up with some UT4 Pubbing. THEINCREDIBLEPACO walked away with the W and no one was surprised. Apologies for the clickedy clacking of my obnoxious keyboard however greatness has a cost. I'll look into improving this for future casts.
The UT99 Duel or Die tournament was formally announced. 8 invites were issued and the format of the tournament was explained.

viewtopic.php?f=33&t=199Since we were announcing the weapons tourney, we decided to do some show matches. One game was not highlighted to spare snkypoo the embarrassment however if people are quick, they can catch it on Twitch. The first real match of the day was Sonic vs sLY on Terra (keyword: real match.. step yo game up snky).
The new Terra looks awesome. Excited to see it played when the games actually count. sLY eked out a win vs Sonic and put his running shoes on in the dying minutes of the game.
The next two matches of the night were duels between DaSnaksta and sLY on Turbine and Phobos. Turbine came down to a belt battle in overtime however Phobos was dominated by sLY. These are still exhibition games however the players are a lot less rusty than they were a few weeks ago.
To conclude the show, we decided to take a look at CTF-Adonis, a map that is being developed by Swiftshade. The map is beautiful and the potential is through the roof. What we learned from the test is that it is currently too difficult to defend and there are too many walls to lose the opposition (most of them) behind. Swiftshade has already made some adjustments and we are looking forward to getting the map some additional play tests.
