Gunreal is a UT2004 mod, completely redoing UT2004's combat and game mechanics with its own weapons and pacing.

It currently features: 14 New Weapons - Weapon-Shopping - Dynamic Inventory Belt - Walk/Sprint Stamina - Dynamic Accuracy - Improved Player Size - New Blood & Gore - Hit Indicator - Smooth Weapon Drag - Grenades, Mines, and Deployable Teleporters

For those who are new to the mod, it essentially builds off UT2004 (though aiming to be its own thing entirely) to bring the weapons and combat to new levels of solidity, power, and feel of relentless destruction. Special care has been put into the explosions, effects, and especially sound design, with the specific intent (and challenge) of putting the feel of combat on a level higher than any other shooter in existence (but only you can tell us if we've succeeded or not).

Since this is NOT UT2004, however, pacing and gameplay is different. Movement is nearly identical to Half-Life 2 and Battlefield 2 (walk/sprint with stamina), and we use a completely original shopping/money system to add an almost RPG-like element of micromanagement and thought to the game. (see the trailer for details) Alongside all the violence and rage, we've put a great deal of thought into the strategy aspects of the game as well, in an attempt to cater to gamers of all play-styles and backgrounds.

- Also, much thanks for the support from fans so far. Reception has been phantasmagoric, and we're greatly motivated to roll forward. :)

So, without any further ado, you can either:
Download Gunreal Beta (homepage link)
or
Watch HD Trailer (this is actually the same link. So head-shot me)

The Gunreal Beta is going great, reception has been just fantastic, and we have a pile of new media on Moddb, including a sound demo MP3 showing off Gunreal's sound design, and our "How To Test" video.

Posted below is the trailer, for those who are new to Gunreal:


The Auto-Updater has been a huge success (it was very important that we got to test it), and with it we've been able to roll out patches the instant they're ready. Another large patch is on the way, and beta-testers will be delighted to know that these automatic updates will carry them seamlessly into the final release of Gunreal, with no extra downloads needed.

...you don't even have to be psychic to know when patches are released.

Notable recent updates:
- Huge FPS boost for high-detail players
- Improved weapon drop-and-swap abilities
- Bots' aim fixed (no longer too accurate)
- Bots shop and use Special Abilities like humans now
- Bots navigate maps much better, with ability to crouch through places that normally blocked them
- Tons of new sounds and effects for the Combat Glove
- Lots of misc online fixes

Updates just around the corner:

- Mac / Zip users will start getting ingame notification of updates (since they can't use the auto-updater)
- Mines will be able to be manually detonated
- Firing near Spam Charges will set them off
- The Destroyer will be updated
- There will be a new on-screen acid-damage bar
- The "Last Man Standing" game-mode will be optimized
- ...a bunch of other stuff

Well, happy fragging! Oh, and if you want, you can also take a look at some screenshots, art, etc.

Mine Spammer is Over-powered...is there a way you could maybe toggle the stamina bar on/off before matches? Its a pain to get around in Onslaught with that slow movement speed.

People pls, notice that this is the BETA release. So there are lots and lots of bugs and things to fix. Such as: Bot wearing a sniper, hmm...
And i found out that the shotgun is kinda tricky.
But anyway, very, VERY good job for beta. Im really looking forward to the fully fixed version.
