xx Ragnarok Arena Remastered Beta 2 Released
April 10, 2009, 03:23:26 AM by Ackart
I Tell you what, I'm a bit of an impatient nerd. If things had gone my way, you all would have the latest version of Ragnarok Arena Remastered. Unfortunately, the version I uploaded had a small bug (Every time you shot someone, the server crashed) that would have probably been overlooked by the general public, but the team just demanded that I fix it.

This has all happened before and will happen again, and again.





Fortunately, I listened to the voice of reason and the new beta is being released in the time frame of now. What'd we add? Well, I can summarize the list with a few simple words: A few things.

Quote from: Changelist

    * Moved to the latest Orange Box SDK, thus implementing proper third person animations
    * Proper teamplay added with identifiable teams
    * Weapon Added: Sawed Off Shotgun
    * Older weapons balanced and tweaked
    * Six new player models (PMC models by Kaffi of the Facepunch Forums) for the new teams
    * Five new maps, three old maps tweaked
    * Numerical health value re-added, image based health bar nixed
    * Loadout menu added, most weapon pickups removed from maps
    * Plus a handful and a half of bug fixes

Now, I know what you're saying to yourself RIGHT NOW. "Damn it, the original release was okay, but it had no servers." Fortunately, we have that covered with at least three dedicated, stable servers running right now with a new dedicated server archive released alongside the mod.


Now, a special treat for those of you who enjoy social contact while playing your game. I'll be holding a Skype conference with the team and anyone who wishes to drop by while playing the mod throughout all afternoon on Friday, April 10th. Look for us around 4PM Central Standard Time and extending off late into the night.

To get in on such prestigious wastes of bandwith, simply send the Skype username "RagnarokArenaSuperFriendsClub" a friend invite. Don't have Skype? You can find it here. It's free to use and all sorts of fun stuff. And remember, if you're not there.... you're probably someone who has something better to do with a Friday evening.

ps. While reading through the old Dev Blog, I realized that I said the patch would be out before Battlestar Galactica started up again. Hooo was I wrong. The show's finale was like, three weeks ago ferchristsakes.

Also opened up a Custom Content section. And for it's maiden voyage I have uploaded a new crosshair that is easier to see.

Mod is live. Go download and play it.

Download Ragnarok Arena Remastered Beta 1 Here


We've also opened a bug reporting forum for people to post about any bugs they find while playing.  There's also a guide for setting up a dedicated server here.

Enjoy. The dev team will also be bouncing around in the servers periodically, so we look forward to seeing you there.

Alright, the Developer blog is up. Also, media for you guys!



There's more media in the Gallery, of course.

Also want to point something out. In holding with the Ragnarok Arena tradition, we've included a few player models from various popular mods so you may run them together and beat the snot out of each other while playing as your favorite dude. I'm gonna lay out what they are right now to avoid any future misconceptions.

James Bond - Goldeneye Source
Crusader Model - Age of Chivalry
American and Coalition Models - Plan of Attack
NGF Marine - Eternal Silence
USS Agent - Resident Evil Cold Blood

Plus a few guest stars from Counter Strike and Day of Defeat. Collect them all.
