Quoting: tweakedenigmaA permanent Urban Terror server might be the way to go. have a couple of extra machines kicking around at home, so when I have the chance I will see about setting this up.

wow, that would be awesome!
maybe nexuiz would be better


Nexuiz is the best FOSS Arena shooter IMO, but since the developers sold the community I wonder how it's successor Xenotic is doing, anyone tried that yet ?


I honestly had forgotten that it had been sold. guess thats another one for my List of things to check out.

I don't get it, Nexuiz was free and OpenSource soft, who and why bought it?

The Nexuiz code maintainers sold the Nexuiz brand (now the free Nexuiz is no longer allowed to be named Nexuiz) and it's source code to another company.
Sure the already released source code is still free, but the other company won't contribute a thing to the free project.
The "new" Nexuiz will not support Linux and is produced for the consoles.

Many people didn't like it and formed a new game project based on the Nexuiz GPLed sources, but this time the license will no permit re-branding and selling the sources to other company.
