Welcome back to another PoE news update. First off we have a brand new video to showcase of a map Jilted has been working on for a long time. The map, Olesko Castle, is an infantry guys dream with long corridors and lots of options for attacking or defending inside this vast castle. Illicitfilms has been working on this video he made with our testers and we hope you enjoy it.
Not only does this map have normal conquest mode but Seigman has produced a brand new game mode that can be mixed into regular rotation. Here is a brief description of our new game mode.
in•cur•sion - noun
raid: a brief, hostile, and usually sudden invasion of somebody's territory.
This is an incursion map. The attacking team must take and hold one of two flags within the allotted time or destroy the defending team. Defending team must guard both flags from attack or destroy the attacking team. You will only have one life per round.
We also want to thank all those who submitted Billboards for the PoE Alienware Billboard contest and all the fans who came out to vote. The billboards were creative, well done, and in some cases very amusing! Overall we were very impressed with the work that was done. While the fans picked the top 3, the Dev team picked from the remaining ones which was their favorite and that billboard will also get a spot in our next release. All winners will receive prizes from Alienware and inclusion in our next release!
We would also like to announce we have hit a major milestone in our next release. We will be compiling last minute information in the coming days and hope to give you something more to look at near the end of the week.
We are still in need of 3Dmax coders, modelers, and skinners. If you have what it takes, please Apply Here.
Great video! Love the map too! Rick Slick billboard was hillarious.
That wallpaper, is just pure class, emotive yet peaceful, hints of the storm ahead with the calmness of the corn/tall-grass. I still use the original wallpaper of this from the old site on my PC.
