» Models! All weapon models have been retextured for a more unified and modern look.
» New Gametype! Added the class-based ‘Capture the Flag: Tactics’ gametype.
» Music! A brandnew full soundtrack by jihnsius. 6 in-game songs and 2 new menu soundtracks for you to enjoy while browsing for servers.
» Prettier! Engine updates for improved and more realistic lighting.
» Better performance! Higher framerates due to greatly improved engine performance. Lower latency due to better netcode.

big thx guys!!!! keep up the good...i mean excellent work, quake live can only suck balls now compared to this
OH YEAH!
can you guys atleast allow for RocketJumps im quite dissapoint at that!
rocketjumps are perfectly possible. Aim down, fire and press jump at the same time should get you a long way. You can even rocketjump with walljumps for crazy fast 180s :)!
Man, this game is so fast - if u think Quake series is hard...dont even try warsow ;p
Amazing style! I loved the map design, and the weapons are sexy too! No public servers though, or is it just me?
Hmm... there are plenty of active servers running 0.6 already. It may be you.
Dear Santa,
this year I don't have any wishes.
My only one wish was a new version of Warsow and the devs gave it me.
Ehhm but if you have some place for me in your bag, then please donate me a new headset.
