First Quake Rally, now this? The Navy Seals team has announced their Quake 3 mod Navy Seals: Covert Operations is finally being released after who knows how many years. They hope to release the mod between 11am and 12PM CST today (ok looks like it will be a little while longer, but who's counting hours at this point). Here's some of the features

- 21 new and unique real-life weapons. From the famous Ak47 to the S&W 629 revolver.
- Three all new player models featuring dozens of new animations.
- An realistic damage system with different damage locations and wound effects.
- Changed Player physics to increase the realism.
- PORC, an improved particle system for the many cool effects in NS-CO.
- Fifteen entirely different maps with varying objectives, sizes and themes.
- A highly customizable environment effect system for rain or snow.

An IRC release party is going on in #nsq3 on irc.enterthegame.com.

Update: Well, as most of you know, it's out now. Due to the delay in release we were unable to provide a mirror. You can find other locations for the 189mb file here.
