RDZArena

First released in 2007, RDZArena is a multiplayer arena based on When the Freedom Slips Away and in which much of the technology of This Wreckage was developed and refined. Despite being an 8-player map, the game includes bot AI that takes over all empty or computer-assigned slots for an optimal singleplayer experience.

Gather points for yourself and your team by killing enemy heroes and creeps, capturing flags, holding the Hill and more — the first team to reach the target wins (the target is adjusted for the number of human players).

If you really enjoyed the map, maybe you’d like to…

RDZArena includes a crazy chat system, and there are a number of secret commands that you can use to spice up your game. These can be entered by any player, but don’t be a hater and abuse them if it ruins everybody else’s fun! Naturally, these are to be used at your own risk.

• -nowin: disables the score limit so you can play forever!
• -gameover: immediately triggers the game end — whichever team has the most points, wins
• -whoops: causes your hero to commit suicide
• -bottage: gives AI control to your hero so you can sit back and relax
• -xantomere: swaps your hero for Xan from Unreal Tournament!
• -chaos: immediately forces a Chaos Round (I don’t know why either, presumably for testing)
• -me starts a fire: starts raging infernos all across the Arena!
