IMO...
4.2 could be a very nice upgrade, provided (and once) they fix the worst of the bugs. Some have greater effect for players, other for server admins, and yet others for all involved in match play, especially if that match-type play does not conform to configs/cvar settings (choices) that are in sync with what FS has shown preference for. Setting aside some time to visit the UrT website would be a great idea; start on the front page, look for the start of a list of things FS is aware of, and continue on to the forums.

That said, FSK405 does have an active 4.2 server up (IP= 72.5.195.142:27960), and I HIGHLY suggest taking time to try 4.2 out. It is not so buggy as to make that a worthless experience; quite the contrary, I think it is an incredibly valuable experience. But, visit the site first so as to be aware of what you might expect, so as to not coat your first day of playing with the distaste produced by those bugs. Create a new folder for UrT 4.2, and unzip your new install there. You might be able to use your autoexec.cfg with 4.2; copy it over and try it out. I recommend NOT copying your 3rd party maps from 4.1 over, as some of them have conflicts with 4.2 content. I have updated several maps already for use (specifically) with 4.2.

The new 4.2 install has an updater utility; simply run it occasionally to grab any new/fixed content.

Any questions, feel free to ask in TS3. And all of this is only IMO.

Oh- BTW-
Our pub server (/connect fsk405.com) is currently running 4.1 (with B3), as is our Scrim Server. This is due to several cvar issues with 4.2, and the periodic crashing that many servers seem to be experiencing (we did during the first, and only, Sun Scrim we tried with 4.2). We are not running B3 on our 4.2 server (yet), as we are attempting to isolate some bugs.

We have also kept our Superman, Jumps, and SR8 servers 4.1 for the time being. If you attempt to join a server and get an error reporting a wrong version.. 4.1=68, 4.2=70.. disconnect, quit UrT, and rejoin using the correct client. Both installs (4.1 and 4.2) can coexist on the same system, but you MUST have separate folders for each game. Further, if on a Windows 7 system, please do NOT install Urban Terror 4.1 or 4.2 in your Program Files folder(s). Instead, create a new folder to place both games in (name it Games, UrT, BubblesInTheBathtub, etc.. whatever you want)

It's starting to get a lot better now, and I'm starting to like it. They made the models a lot better and I enjoy the new hits.
