Introducing 'Gun Assault' for Call of Duty-United Offensive! VERSION FINAL
 
The long awaited UO update to 'Gun Assault' is here.  The map originally debuted in February 2004  Now you can help in the public beta testing of the map.  GA-UO supports two new UO game types, Capture the Flag and Base Assault and features the ever popular 'CONQUEST' game type.

'Gun Assault' is the prelude to 'Town Assault', setting the stage with the American troops having to drive the Germans back from the river and manor house, across the South and plowed fields, beyond the hotly contested ruins and the secured bunker system. 
 
Map/Mode components:
- CONQUEST mode (CNQ) Capture each objective IN order to advance your team spawns and push the enemy back onto their base.
- Intelligent switch hints. Approach a switch, it will display a 'hint' to you. For example: "Press [USE] to take control of the HOUSE and 
advance your team spawns."
- Scripting that tells everyone WHO/PLAYER name that flipped a switch.
- Bonus points to the player's team when an objective is captured.
- Special effects..smoking ruins in the distance, other nice additions for ambient feel.
- Enhanced defensive positions that promote teamwork and flanking attacks.
- Larger play area to allow for more dynamic battles..real flanks and tactical choices.
- Additional modes supported include: DM, TDM, BEL, BAS, CTF and HQ
- And more...
