For some reason, onlt half of GTers show up for me... There are Nova, H-Bomb, Silas, you, one of the commandos (not me), PhantoM, and a few others, then there's Ki. That's the heros side, and hen the villains are the emperor, vader, the fetts, and maul. So, does that mean that the others are in CTF?

Yeah, I think he's going to change that once the map gets released.

Alpha_07: noticed what? the map?

Announcement:
Anyway guys, this map is aesthetically at the 'done' stage, except for the big easter egg (@Fingerfood: you know what this is....) and a few skins to be changed (ARC-170, a few clones, missiles).
However, the gameplay is still...annoying. Basically the map needs better pathing, less turrets, and more cover, for which I've added in some more rocks and small trees. I'm a bit of a perfectionist so release of 1.0 is a while off (don't ask for a release date. Within next two months at the very latest.)
To balance this out the beta is now going to be public. Meaning you won't have to sign up for it at all, there'll be a link in this thread when the beta is ready that anyone can use to get the beta version.
Beta version will have:
CW Conquest, GT Assault.
Won't have (but will be in version 1):
GT Conquest, CW Hunt, GT Hunt, CW Dogfight.
Won't have (may be in version 1, unlikely):
Deathmatch.

Anyway, beta release will try to be in less than a week, two weeks max.

Eh, lots of maps have been in production for far longer than this, this has just been a really popular topic.

Anyway, it looks sweet. I really like the premise of having ground fighting, atmospheric dogfights, and space dogfights all in the same map.
