Legions! Last weekend UT3 was up for free downloading via the Steam-Platform. Of course everybody tried to get it so the problem appeared: The Steam servers were way overloaded and not everyone of you was able to get the game and play. Here comes the good news:

The EMS has been over now for a couple of weeks already, but it took a while to get answers from a few people to get the results which were the best players of the UT3 Major Series, here are the results!

Due the inactivity and small size of the Unreal Tournament 3 scene we have decided to not run another season of ESL Major Series for the game. Season II will be the last time Unreal Tournament is included in the ESL Major Series unless maybe a new game is released.

Finally the final match of the UT3 ESL Major Series is coming on this Sunday at 20:00 CEST. H2k Gaming will challenge Team Dignitas, who are coming from the winner bracket. So H2k needs to win two match ups to get the crown of the UT3 ESL Major Series.

The third season of the ESL Major Series will feature UT3 1on1. 16 players will fight for 750€ prizemoney. Eight players will be invited and eight slots will be filled with players from qualifiers. The Season will start in early September 2008 and the qualifiers will take part a few days before the start of the season.

The second groupstage of the ESL UT3 Major Series is ready to rumble. 16 Teams will fight for the eight playoff slots and the chance for 1.500€ prize money and hardware prizes worth even more money. There will be four groups with each four teams and the best two teams will advance to the playoffs.

Only 2 days left until the end of Season 1 and still 31 teams are participating in the TDM League. On Monday we will see which eight teams will form the first Division of the second Season, while the next teams will be sorted into the second division. Nearly eight teams are still fighting for four slots in the first division.

Groupstage 1 with 30 teams is ready to roll and first matches will be played in two weeks. The groupstage consists of eight groups, six with four teams and two with three teams. All teams have one match a week and the matches are forced to different dates. They can only be rescheduled if both teams agree to do so.

A lot of teams requested it and here it is; the first Unreal Tournament 3 league. For this league we thought about a special system, because often teams drop during a league which takes over several weeks and we wanted to avoid that. So we will use a mixture of a Ladder, where teams can always leave and join and a premiership with fixed playdays. Each season of the league will last eight weeks and after eight weeks teams can drop to lower divisions or advance to higher divisions. There are no seedings at the beginning; all teams will be in one division for the first eight weeks.

This weekend the next of our Quick Cups is approaching, a 4on4 TDM cup. In preperation of the ESL Major Series we are going to run a 4on4 TDM Quick Cup with the EMS mappool on this Sunday, 17th February.
