True Combat: Elite
October 23rd, 2004 by CrusaderA reader fired in a link to the True Combat: Elite, an upcoming modification for Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. As ET is a free first-person shooter from id Software, True Combat: Elite will also be a free (gratis, not libre) game for Linux users. A public RC2 release is planned before the end of the month; a FAQ page is also up.

I know True Combat from its beginnings, and it’s always been one of the best and most ambitious mod projects out there.
However, it suffered horribly after Coroner left. The community went from friendly and cool to hostile and in-fighting, and the team grabbed up new members from the very same community. Over the next half year or so, the community lost pretty much everyone who was positive and contributed stuff such as maps, servers, etc.
It’s great to see Coroner back. He made TC, and after he left, it was pretty much dead.
