That new version of the MilitaryFort map was just released recently. Make sure you have the correct version :)

And so continues the raping of T2A's harddrive...

Hooray for Waisten!

In any case, I'm still wondering what the big deal is about VCTF. All the maps I've seen are boringly lackluster and only mildly fun because spam is only mildly fun. I mean, the only one in the list here I see that's worth half a s**t is Military Fort. Battle Line is just spam, spam, spam, spam, spam. Same with Blood Gulch since the scale is all wrong. It needs to be at least twice as big. I feel like a damn giant running around in there. :rolleyes:

Turns, I agree with you on Bloodgulch. But, the thing is that several people (at least 10) wanted these VCTF maps, so we thought it was about time to give them what they wanted.

Off course
I kinda like BattleLine. In the game I played, all 3 routes (bridge, footwalk below the bridge, scorpion side route) were heavily used and each flag was in constant danger. I admit the bridge is spammy, with the tanks facing each other, but with decent backup from the raptor, AVRiLLer's and the scorpion, a team can force their position into the other base.
I also argued that Bloodgulch is too small and had too many vehicles, but I heard that it's a fun map nevertheless...

And talking about size: I just reïnstalled UT2004 for the very first time since I got it (release date), and only installed the maps I need for fragBU. The folder size is 7.68 G...2.24 G more than an 'official-only' install :eek:

Up my ass
I should actually be able to join this time. I was on a role for a while with making it to FragBU, but the last few weeks I haven't attended, I feel so dirty.

I'm taking my wife to homecoming at my school. And tomorrow my best friend is getting married.

Busy weekend.
