for those who remember The Petition, which was made so that Bani would kindly help us with our current ET situation, I'm very happy to tell you that Bani has now made it official.

- etpro team does not explicitly endorse anti3 at this time

however...

- etpro won't prevent anti3 distribution
- anti3 distribution must be clearly labeled as 'not an official etpro distribution'
- anti3 users use anti3 'at their own risk', etpro cannot provide support for anti3 users.

if anti3 proves resistant to attacks (and proves it is trustworthy) we may investigate directly integrating into etpro in the future.

So what does this mean? It means ET-Ace can go forward and publish a mod with ETPro features and their own AntiCheat! And if things go really well, we basically have etpro equipped with anticheat while both of them get updates every now and then.
Let's all have our thumbs up for quad and chaplja and wish them success with this project that might very well save ET!

CDC4 and CGS LAN winners fnatic have just announced some serious teamchanges, just days after a dissapointing performance at the Multiplay i34 in Warwickshire. With a 7-8th, 4th and 9-12th placing at the three major LAN events this summer, things had taken a turn for the worse with tidde stating "that over the weeks we've been splitting up as a team and divided into groups."


According to fnatic General Manager Joe Miller "the teams recent slumps at AEF, TEX and i34 meant it was time for a change in Fnatic". The Swedish team is expected to announce their two new recruits in the coming weeks and are currently left with the following three players:

"We are letting mintR and zEm go. We've been feeling that over the weeks we've been splitting up as a team and divided into groups. Both zEm and mintR are extremly talented but neverthereless we had to make a hard decission to let them go. Me and the guys wish them best of luck in the future and I hope they will find there way to another team."

"I've been asked to leave Fnatic and I'm going to do so. These last six months have by far been the best of my gaming months but unfortunately now they are over. I've met alot of nice people through out these past few years and I've been in alot of teams tournaments and finals, to name a few WHO crew, x6, serious-gaming, dignitas, svea Royale and I've been the captain for most of them. When I had the chance to join the ranks of Fnatic with my team I finally made it to one of the best organizations out there. Now when ever things are going great people are happy, when things go bad how ever some one has to be responsible and this time it was me. The others in the team have the ability to move forward and I'm going to step aside and let them do so. I wish those who stay behind and those who come in the best of luck. Thanks to the whole of Fnatic and thanks for a great time."

The team will be looking for 2 new replacements in the upcomming weeks.

i34 is over, Low Land Lions have won the Call of Duty in an epic 2 map final and defeated Evil Geniuses in the final. The benelux side lost on Backlot but a phenominal come back on crash gave them 6000 euro and their first major tournament victory in CoD4. It was also good news for Qwerty who on the graphic below won the QTOUR.

Having finished the group stage phase of the tournament, the next segment of the nationscup will begin. With potential cup winners Team NL coming second in their group after a forfeit loss to Chile, Latvia not making the playoffs despite a strong place in the previous nationscup, and France's exit from the cup, we've by no means been short of any surprises. We've also received an excellent spectacle from our non-European peers, Australia, Chile, Japan and USA who've all made the playoff stages, proving their place amongst the competitors of Europe.

For those of you who've missed anything gamestv and our dearest pedro have left nothing missing, providing heaps of coverage. Match reports can be found here, whilst ETTVoD is also available here. Results tables from the group phase can be found here.

After issues with France potentially having cheated, the responsibility to take further action against cheats was taken, and as a result of this, thanks to chaplja & quad, anti3 will soon be available for the remaining matches in the cup. Any questions about anti3 can be asked to chaplja in #crossfire.nc.

As for the playoffs, the eager amongst you will be glad to know that they'll be beginning very shortly, the first match week Monday 11th August to Sunday 17th August. A preview will be available very soon, including details such as which teams have been playing especially well, predictions, and previews of the upcoming games. Details about the cup can be read below:

In the following days Clanbase will be implying a new rule, about Enemy Territory's GUID system. To reduce any guidspoofing and other excuses, since ETPro guids are totally unreliable nowadays, we urge you to stop changing your PBGUID (this is done by manually deleting your etkey in your etmain folder) Clanmembers / members with PBGuids newer than 2 weeks (not confirmed yet) will NOT be allowed to compete in any cup , or any ladder after this rules takes effect.


People that will not comply with this rule due to reason's like:
- Format
- HD crash
- my brother

will not be accepted unless solid proof of this is given (HD crash ONLY) if you format its your fault.... the date of the guid is the day they register it at CB (or Yawn, or ss of when your etkey was created)

Being back from my holiday in since 4 days now I present you the release of Sw Battery Beta 3. The changes that took place make the map much more playable and even for both teams. But without too much talking I will show off the major changes & fixxes that took place from beta1 on, with some pictures and of course the downloadlink.

(picture) The beachdoor placed at the old Bunker MG should already be old & known since the first releases of sw_battery. It can be destroyed by allies dynamite and gives an extra entrance to the bunker flag.

In a surprising course of events, Team France has withdrawn from the Crossfire Nations Cup after discovering they had played their group stage games with a cheater.

After captain milit decided that fellow Team France player keeji was doubtlessly cheating, he chose to withdraw his team from the cup, also resulting in all other teams gaining forfeits against them. The action is a first in ET's history, where a team captain takes full responsibility for letting a cheater play under his command. So far, milit has been applauded for having the courage to apologize on behalf of his team to the community and withdrawing their results, despite some of his teammates disputing this.

This means that Malta are now second in the group and will progress to playoffs.

Info regarding keeji can be seen in the following threads by our beloved Killerboy:
