So me and Matt were talking about a week ago, and we decided to release Ocean Tel.
Partly because it's Blother's birthday. And he's a champ.
Also because most of the people who pissed me off aren't even in the community, though I'm sure they'll pop back up.
Also because we've been playing it with just us three for a while, and I made a bunch of 6 player maps-- so it'd be nice to get a chance to actually use them with some real folks.
Also we're releasing OT so that Dok and Addy stop sycophanting about and pretending to 'see things my way'. Because it's very unsubtle and awkward to read. So... I guess nice job, guys?
Furthermore today I got my 187th personal message on these forums, so. That makes in auspicious.
187 is a good number.
This time we've got a proper EULA-- obviously not much of a barrier, but it makes things absolutely plain. We're not cool with folks taking our models, if you have somehow, up until this moment, failed to grasp that.
I also stress that this is a work in progress-- not fully polished yet, several little things we're not happy with-- mostly things I can't do until I go back home and get the improved files. Importantly, note that the balance probably isn't perfect-- well, definitely isn't. We balanced it so it was fun for us, and that was really all we could do; hence the beta. If you've got any suggestions, let us know, we'll do what we can.
I'd also ask that folks refrain from posting the download link everywhere, as this thread will be updated as regularly as OT is, and will be more convenient for mod discussion.
So, without further ado:

Current version: 2.01.
Go nuts. Furthermore, here's a map pack.

Installer should work just fine. I figure it's easier than teaching each individual new fellow how to extract...
