The latest incarnation of the Nexuiz franchise has been released! From the official announcement:

Quote:
Almost a year of hard work, 3000 single changes, new developers and players, a few tourneys and lots of matches have passed since the last release.

Today the Alientrap team is proud to bring you a new and improved Nexuiz! Still trying to achieve this fine balance between fun and a challenge, you will notice lots of small additions that will make playing even more fun.

Some larger changes like the new guns and particle effects will make you want to dive into the great and friendly Nexuiz community, while the large additions including the race game mode, some new maps and improved netcode will take away lots of hours of your free time.

Do you dare to take a look and see for yourself what a totally free and open source game can be?

Our Nexuiz server, Nexican, will be upgraded to the new version this weekend. Take a moment to upgrade the game or you'll be left out.

If you haven't played Nexuiz yet, what are you waiting for? If you love Halo and Quake3, Nexuiz will come natural to you. But its speed will blow your mind! Check out our Nexuiz page here - http://gameboom.net/games/nexuiz

See you in game Nexicans!

Update: Ubuntu/Debian users can get the Nexuiz 2.5 binary package at getdeb - http://www.getdeb.net/search.php?keywords=nexuiz

  • some people have been experiencing some glitches when upgrading from Nexuiz 2.4.2 to 2.5. The workaround is to delete everything in your "dlcache" folder. This seems to fix most glitches.

  • I tried to play it last night, but the whole map was blacked out. Could only see the people. I wasn't the only one, few other specs weren't playing because of the same issue.
