ShootMania : Centralized News about the game.

i love warfare in UT3 and I would love to see a mode like this of like conquest in Battlefield. Of course i know that it will not be exactly like the way these games work but a mode where you have to destroy your opponents powercore, flag, or whatever by capturing bases in a line would be awesome. it would also be cool to see something like the flags in BZFlag where when you pick one up it give you a special ability until you drop it or are shot.

I want to play to UT99 now

I really like UT3 but it's slower than UT99 and more importantly, it lacks the Assault mode :/

yes not to take any hype away from the TM2 Canyon release, but i am still very excited for this game and waiting for more screenshots. many times news articles have tried to describe the gameplay but all they say is stuff like, "its not like anything made before." what does that mean? I would just like to know some more information about this because i keep telling my friend about shootmania but i dont know anything past, "you make your own maps." I know that the TM2 release is probably making things a little crazy over there at NADEO HQ but after the release i am going to be looking forward to the next addition to maniaplanet: SM storm.

There's a little inconsistency in what different magazines write about Shootmania.
Some sources say that in Shootmania will be only one weapon available that shoots some sort of energy puffs and has no gunmodel.
Others say that in Shootmania the author of the map can decide which weapon the player will get in specific areas like shotgun in narrow tunnels. If this is right and there is no gun model, how does the player know he has now an other weapon?
Does anybody know which is right or at least what is not true here?
