Point of Engagement is the first public mod to be made by (me) HeavyBlade. Based on an idea nearly two years old, it is a multiplayer dream, featuring nine fully detailed Player classes; Recon, Commando, Assault Troop, Heavy Support, Pyro, Combat Engineer, Medic, Demolitions Expert, and the Sniper. Each of these classes has their own movement speed, stamina, 4 weapons (one primary, two secondary, and grenades), along with the required clips, armor and health.
PoE, as it is called for short (not to be confused with the other Unreal Tournament 2003 mod with the same acronym, Protectors of Earth) also features a clip-based ammunition system, a stamina system, basic radar for all players, in-game class menu, custom HUD and game type along with a variety of cool weapons like the OICW and Auto cannon.
In Point of Engagement, the earth is overcrowded, and the government, desperate to maintain control over an alarming increase in population, pours millions into the space exploration project. The discovery of a new planet capable of supporting life appears like a ray of hope to the overcrowded, abused, and downtrodden. People of all classes, races, and jobs flock on board the Explorer to take them to the new land. Unfortunately, without the government's guiding hand, the new government the people form is far from ideal. More Totalitarian then Democratic, the corrupt and power hungry quickly sieze control and start a rain of terror over the populace. After several months, and government troops opening fire on demonstrators, the people have had enough. Armed with the stolen new technology enabling man to create matter from matter, the people slowly amass an army. In a war like this, there is no such thing as neutrality.

Point of Engagement is still alive! It's not dead! I'd say please don't leave me! but I'm not quite that desperate yet lol.
Work has been delayed for a while - will definitely start up again before June. We just finished a long move into a new house (very painful), and my computer is still packed. Unfortunately, we forgot to mark the computer box! So finding it may take some time... could be a day, could be a week, could be a month or two. I just wanted to make sure you knew.
I also wish to reconcil for the poor quality of the betas... while the content was there, I did not have time to properly test the installs before I released them - this created much stress on the part of both parties and for that I am sorry. The latest version, is of course, a masterpiece, and I fully intend not to make that d**n mistake again. God knows how many people it cost me.

thx guys!
I'd be honored to add you onto the list erm. Our team is certainly looking for people to find any and every bug in our work. If anyone wants to help beta test, please email me and let me know. Because it's a closed beta, not everyone will be accepted, but take strength in the fact that an Open Beta isn't far away.
Thanks,

I can help beta test? if you need a feature stress tested or broken am your man ( I seem to be good at breaking things)
Hey. I'm PoEHeavyBlade, the Project Leader of Point of Engagement. In response to Bunnys comments, We try to update the website as often as possible. Bl00dR4in, who is currently running admin for this mod, has been fairly busy trying to manage the webpage, modelling, and everything else I can give him >grin<. The first Public Beta will be a selective beta consisting of about 20-30 people. From this, we'll gather bugs and information in preparation for our first public beta. Are you checking the site? Anyway, I know half of you who read this won't believe it's me until I contact rain this afternoon and get him to add me to the Team Member section. Hopefully then I'll be able to update our profile more often.
Thanks for your support,
