Coop or Die for Quake2 progress during recent months

The coopordie website and the WorldServer have been merged with the new phpBB forum since February 14. The result is a more united community and an increasing number of games played, particularly games with three or four players.

I have also enhanced some game features related to the challenge mode. A new inventory per team system has been added, and a dedicated web page has been created for reporting challenger's progression. The result was an increasing number of champions in teams of two, and the first victory of a three-player team. As yet, no four-player team has won the entire campaign without dying, but the race has already started...

Finally, while waiting for the next DLL release planned for the end of the summer, I have added a teleporter in the StartMap for a new mission pack. The "Premonition of Angron" from Jonas N.P. Lindstrom was chosen for its high quality and great fun for co-operative play.
