Steve Polge is back in this week’s Twitch Broadcast and is still wearing his vacation shorts no less. This edition is highly enjoyable with substantial discussion on various proposed aspects of the game.

I have to say I’ve been getting a little burned out in the forums lately but watching this video nicely hit the reset button and got me excited again!

Epic has also started a new blog for UT which looks like it will get substantial regular updates. I’ve added the new blog link in the UT section on the left hand side of the site.

It’s been a while since Wizd3m has fired up the ole’ review machine so it was a nice surprise to see his review of Stevelois’ DM-Valon map. An excellent map and an excellent review to go with it!  Check it out HERE.

TWD and Sir Brizz are at it again with their excellent podcast series. This time out, they take some swipes at UT3. Certainly this is valid for the early days of UT3 but not more recent days with the low poly maps.

Epic’s Twitch broadcast for this week focuses on art direction for the new UT. Cool to see them discussing the awesome community contributions so far!

ChongLee updated his DM-Deck-CLee map this week. I have to say, this is looking really fun. This will be a must-have map when it’s done.

So today we have our first real indication that Epic truly IS going to use community made designs in their development process. In addition, they will be giving a credit to the author in the game credits when it is released. This is really cool!

TimEh is the first community contributor to the new UT. Yay Tim! His work on building jump pads for the game was accepted by Epic into the current build of the game. To go along with this, Flak will be giving out “UT Contributor” tags in the forums for successful contributors. Very exciting and motivating stuff I’d say!

Epic has uploaded today’s Unreal Tournament Twitch broadcast to YouTube.  It’s long at 42 minutes but tons of good info from the team!
