Urgent Fury Presents UF: POW II for Call of Duty Black Ops 2 on PlayStation 3

February 4, 2013

Guest


It's the return of what Urgent Fury is best known for, our Scenario Based TacMap Tournament. POW II brings back one of the most popular scenarios Urgent Fury has ever offered along with new twists and turns. We also bring back the need to eliminate all other Clans to take home the win. No more 4 clan tournament, if your clan is dominating the event, then you can eliminate all others and take home the gold, but if your clan gets that second win, then you can bring on the ultimate strategy to take back control and win it all.We have opened the POW II Information Center with all of the information needed including Rules, timelines and an open forum to ask questions. But let us give you some of the initial deadlines:

Applications Close February 20th, 2013
Matches will be broadcast live on www.twitch.tv/urgentfury as much as possible. Thursday Nights will include the Neutral City Territory matches which are up to 5 teams playing hard point multi team.

Face it we know that clans have been struggling to find that game that works well and we have designed the event to be flexible based on clan participation. We will start with a minimum of 8 clans with a 20 clan max. It has been quite a while since we have gone full force into a TacMap and we want to make it inviting as possible for the clans that are hesitant to get their feet wet.In a recent blog post, Shane lined out some of the details of the event including the 5 territory types and our new Stalemate Provision allowing us to go to an open ended schedule. We also touch on the new Interactive TacMap, we will reveal this after the initial Pics.Listed below is a link to each Territory Set up, this is one of the first times we have actually revealed how the territories will be set up. These are not your typical COD Mode Setups either. This is a TacMap, so the typical COD Style is out the window. Keep in mind the majority Territory type will be War Zones, so we have chosen Search & Destroy as the primary game mode. This means one life per round ladies and gents, you can't be a suicidal hero, this requires strategy and teamwork!

POW Camp
HeliPort
War Zone
Neutral
Head Quarters

Now get your asses in gear soldiers, its time to take it to the battlefield.
There is No Escape.

Urgent Fury welcomes StarHawk

February 4, 2012

Guest


In the past seven years Urgent Fury has used Socom as its staple in tournament design, later games like Call of Duty and other shooters have seen their acceptance into the community. But early last year we caught word of a new third person shooter coming to the scene. Now we have never strayed that far from the military path in shooters but this one takes us to the final frontier.
 
Urgent Fury is proud to welcome StarHawk to our 2012 tournament season. The Starhawk universe is set in the distant future, out in the far reaches of space where factions battle over a rare and dangerous resource known as Rift Energy. In this galaxy, colonies of humans, called Rifters, explore a scattering of planets, known as the Frontier, in attempt to mine this energy to make an honest living, but find their way of life threatened by the Outcast, a ruthless species of humans who have mutated into psychotic monsters due to exposure to this very same Rift Energy.
 
Starhawk’s features a host of weaponry and a multitude of vehicles for high-speed, extreme combat combined with intense vehicular warfare on both land and air. The game’s innovative Build & Battle system lets players alter the moment to moment action by giving them the ability to change the dynamic of the battlefield instantly with a selection of base structures at their disposal, all while in the midst of the fight. By the touch of a button players can violently deploy a number of buildings, vehicles, or artillery to strategically complete mission objectives and defeat enemies. Through the sophisticated architecture of the PS3 system, the instantaneous customization that Build & Battle provides, as well as the breadth of game play that spans multiple modes, is made possible.
 
With the release scheduled for May 8th, 2012, expect this summer to ignite with intense battles as Urgent Fury seeks to find the 2012 Championship Clan. Does your clan have what it takes? Well get started by introducing your clan to our community by clicking here.
