It's been a long time since the Urban Terror community has put together a proper jump related event. To remedy that, Sachka and Hugo are organizing the Battle Jump competition, hosted by Urban Zone, and everybody from beginner to skilled jumper is welcome to participate.
There will be three different divisions in which people with the same skill level compete against each other, on maps with matching complexity and difficulty level. The goal is to be the fastest in your bracket to finish the maps.
The tournament will span several weeks and multiple maps will be played in each division. To participate, it is necessary that you are using an Urban Terror account and that you are registered on the Urban Zone website.
For this first edition of the Battle Jump Tournament, the organizers offer 50 € to the winner of each division. In the next few days you will be able to access the rules as well as the official list of maps that will be played.
Good luck and lots of fun to all the participants!

It's been a long time since we announced this update but, with all our efforts being directed to Resurgence, it took us some time and dedication to leave the fancy Unreal Engine 4 development environment to push one of the last updates of the ioQuake editions of Urban Terror.
We hope that you will enjoy this small 2017 update in which we tried to fix the most important bugs known in 4.3 along with a few enhancements for the new GunGame and InstaGib modes.
Changelog

Before coming up with our end of year greetings, we have some last minute candy to share with you.
The old folks hanging around for some years can remember The Daily Nade webmagazine. Providing a global coverage of the games' news, it was also offering on a regular basis some tips and tricks for its players.
Some of you might also have heard about rapid`, a young German player known in Urban Terror's top eSports spheres for playing with Glory and Team Germany. In the Daily Nade's spirit, he decided to dive into the big ocean of gaming tutorials and delivers us today his very first piece.
For this number one episode, the focus will be the game's most popular sidearm: the Desert Eagle.
Enjoy and maybe learn something! As glory.rapid` likes to say train or keep crying!
It has been 10 months now since Team France won for the 5th time the prestigious NationsCup, positioning themselves 2nd behind Team Portugal in the all time Nations' Rankings.
The very first NationsCup on Urban Terror 4.3 calls for us and can't wait for the action to kick off! Those of you who would like to live again last year's matches can head straight away to the Urban Zone YouTube channel, sit comfortably in your chair and just listen to Seven, Jehar, Ikslorin and Maku's voice.

Captain Votes
We will be going through the captain designation process in the UrbanZone forums in a few days. Note that players are still in time and free to apply to become the captain of their country, but competition experience is, of course, expected. The NC staff is also looking for people ready to help them in the organization (GTV cameraman, newswriter, etc). So please step up if you want to help!
If you want to be the captain of your nation or region send your written application by mail to nationscup@urban-zone.org by midnight of December 18th. Add the following elements to the application: UrT auth, country, age, clan, and other relevant information which may help voters decide whether you're the right person to be their nation's captain.
We hope you've got your guns polished and your minds sharp because Urban Zone is back with season 29/22/13 of their CTF, TS and BOMB leagues. Signups are now open so head over to the Urban Zone Website to sign your team up.
Some might have expected, as the tweaked UZ logo can suggest, the upcoming competition should be played on the fresh Urban Terror 4.3 new version.
The UZ staff is always willing to lend a hand and answer any questions that you may have, they can be reached via PM on the site or now on Discord !
Signups close on October 31st, so make sure your team is enrolled and ready to play!
The Kernwaffe Team wishes you all a merry christmas time!
Away from the joyful things which the pre-christmas time might bring us, on KW1 there will be running the much-loved and extremely appreciated and multiply desired ChristmasMod. From St.Nicholas Day (6.12) on until the New Years Day (1.1). You will find handpicked & well-chosen Christmas Maps in accompany with a full atmosphere of first class christmassy sound snippets.
!lastchristmas we gave you our hearts, this year there will be a Tännchen (!attention) - !hohoho
In case some of you don´t like all this X-Mas hustle and bustle for various reasons, join like-minded people on KW2 for a collective (un-XMassy) fragging - without ChristmasMod! KW2 has the same settings and the same campaign like KW1 in this time.
In any way ... ... we wish you a merry time & nice play!
Thanks to your incredible feedback after the 4.3 release, we have identified and fixed the FPS drops issues which were affecting a vast number of players.
We promptly decided to release a 4.3.1 HotFix to address them. This release also includes some engine optimizations for the Windows users as well as the fix for Mac OSX 10.12 Sierra users who couldn't launch the game.
Have fun!
Urban Terror 4.3.1 Changelog
• Fixed the FPS drops / lag issue #334
• Slightly improved engine performances on Windows
• Fixed Ghosttown, Paris, Mykonos appearing as 3rd party maps in the server browser #296
We have an issue with servers that seem to lag after being online for a little while. This issue has been seen previously, and even though i can't confirm at this time, I think that server admins should try the 32 bit binaries.
The 32Bit Server Binaries are located in the .zip download.
FrozenSand is delighted to announce the release of Urban Terror 4.3: 'Still Dying' !
This important update from 4.2 brings with it numerous changes and additions, based on internal testing and community suggestions. The 4.3 series will be the very last version on the Quake 3 engine, as we move our development focus to UE4 Urban Terror: Resurgence.
Before going over the big features this update offers, we want to thank the many community members who have done an incredible job in helping us out regarding the menus, engine, updater and maps. Namely: Iye, Kronik, Mr.Yeah, karnute, Clatoo, PapyRunny, MajkiFajki, Thomas Brierley, ryan-sg, Fenix, Mickael9, clearskies, t3slider, and last but not least, the JrandomNoob. We also would like to thank former QA testers for the two years of testing, the community members and 4.3 pre-releases testers for their feedback.
Information: This is an update of the Urban Terror 4 version on Quake 3's engine, and it is not to be confused with Urban Terror: Resurgence which will run on the Unreal Engine.
Modes
A brand new game type has found its way into Urban Terror - Gun Game. It challenges you to kill your opponents in a free-for-all style fight, using weapons dictated by the game. Each time you kill someone, you gain a level and switch to a new weapon. The first player to earn a knife kill (the highest level weapon), wins the game!
Instagib has been an all time favourite mode in Quake 3, and is finally available in Urban Terror! Watch a sadistic smile spread across your face, as you instantly kill players with a single bullet from the instagib-exclusive weapon: the TOD50. In this mode, stamina can be unlimited, booting can be done with the TOD in your hands, its bullets can ricochet on certain surfaces, and rumour has it, you could even kill multiple players with one bullet! Instagib is available in any gamemode (excluding jump and Gun Game).
Weapons
In Still Dying, we've revised the (long awaited) Groin & Butt hit location damages, as well as adjusted other damage values based on community suggestions. Additionally, we're proud to announce that the Benelli M4 Super 90, MAS FR-F1, FN Herstal P90 and .44 Magnum Revolver found their way into the the family of Urban Terror weapons. The Benelli will join the lonely SPAS in the shotguns category; the FRF1 will please the fastest and sharpest long range shooters; the P90 will serve as a secondary alternative, while the Magnum is a devastating but slow sidearm.
Maps
Some maps have received small updates, like Kingdom, and we are welcoming two new maps to the game: Mykonos and Paris. Feast your eyes on the teaser below, then check them out fully in game.
HUD & UI
We have made some adjustments to the HUD and user interface. Improvements have been made to the chat and console designs, better option settings, and an improved server browser. A brand new UI and menu is also almost complete, which you can look forward to in the 4.3.1 update.
UrTUpdater
Along with many other improvements, our Urban Terror Updater now provides full OS X support, statically linked builds, OS specific updates and a brand new UI with download options as well as an improved progress bar.

Five months ago Urban Zone held its first one-day 2vs2 tournament. It was a great success with the community pooling its resources and creating a €119,69 prize pool. To mark the release of Urban Terror 4.3 UZ are organizing the second edition of this tournament which can best be described as a one-day marathon session of Urban Terror.
To boost this edition's prize pool, FrozenSand generously donated €20 for the event, and will put in an extra €2 for every competing team. Several other devs and community members have donated considerable amounts, and the prize pool is about to reach the triple digits! Find additional details regarding the donator rewards on the Urban Zone website.
Signups are limited to 16 teams, they open on Wednesday 28th of September at 12:00 CEST.
