Beta Testing is underway! - The team are pleased to announce that beta testing has begun. We have currently released BETA1 to a small number of inital testers, for gameplay and stability testing. Everything is going very well and the playtests are becoming increasingly larger as we take Forsaken to the next level of development.

Don't worry if you didn't make BETA1, we will be having at least 5 stages of testing, inviting more and more testers as we go. If you'd like to help out as a Beta-tester for Forsaken and be considered for the next stage of testing, Apply here.

Media Update - We've added a brand new map Angel, the Civilian HQ ( 5 shots ). We have also added two in-game screenshots, with the first peak of our weapon models in-game and our HUD system - more to follow soon! including action shots from some of our alpha playtests. Check everything out over at our media page.

* We are also currently looking for some additional talented mappers, modellers, texture artists and coders (preferably with shader experience), so if you are interested apply here.

Media Update - We've added two new previously unannounced weapons, a fully skinned Remington 870 pump-action shotgun and a M84 Stun grenade.

Well it's that time of year again, it's our 2nd birthday and we are pleased to announce even though things have been quiet around here we have been making some good progress behind the scenes. So keep your eyes on our front page because over the next few weeks (starting later this week) we will be releasing new media updates and new developments on the Mod.

Progress behind the scenes is going well, so well in fact that we have improved the game play concepts dramatically, we've managed to push ahead and we are now going for the complete "Territory War" that we had planned where you battle across maps in an epic struggle to control territory and resources.
