Not much else to say. Judging by the demo, this will be unquestionably the best deathmatch game ever. I'm gonna pick mine up in the next few days probably.

Snow doesn't say UT2004. How was I supposed to know. Whatever, the game is definitely good enough to warrant 2 threads.

And Tass, the millions of people who are going to buy this game care.

After seeing that the min harddrive space needed is 5.5 gigs (OMFG!!) I've given up any thoughts of trying to download the thing and I'm just gonna go pick it up.

I'm not a fan of deathmatch, I prefer team-based and objective based FPS games, such as America's Army, or like a good single-player mode, like Doom, but I just downloaded the demo. Gotta check it out. I remember wanting the original UT in 1999, but never got it .

I'm smart, that demo I downloaded was UT2003. Oh well, that one looked interesting too.

Thanks alva - I'll go look up more about the game.

Solver... you'd like UT2004 then... it's got hella different game modes... Onslaught is similar to BF1942 where you secure waypoints... there's an assault mode where you have to complete unique objectives... and there's like 7-10 more modes that I haven't even tried yet.

Poked around with the demo, liked the CTF mode - as I often do. From what I read, onslaught sounds good, as does assault. I love systems similar to BF1942, or Wolf:Enemy Territory.

	Full PM-box? Change here!

Is it like MoH or BF42 where you choose what weapon(s) to use before you spawn, or do you run around and pick them up a la Halo?

How's the combat? Typical run-jump-shoot or are tactics, planning, and team work neccisary?

In deathmatch it's pretty much standard jump around and kill still. CTF is still pretty basic, too. Onslaught mode is where it gets cool. Just jumping and shooting alot will ensure you just lose.

Well onslaught is fun for a few games, but not much more than that. If you want to play competitively (heck it's simply totally different gameplay) then you simply have to play deathmatch. CTF in UT is so-so, but deathmatch and team deathmatch is where UT2k4 will be great at.

I must say ut2k4 has improved hugely since ut2k3, with better movement, better weapons balance (for example the biorifle in ut2k3 was useless, whereas it's now pretty deadly if you handle it correctly), etcetera

All in all it's just better, and of course, that demomap rankin is simply very very very well made. Actually I know the person who made it, it's a Belgian . He kicks ass!

depends on the type of game you are playing... the weapons have to be picked up, but sometimes there are weapon lockers (like in Onslaught) where you get like all the weapons.

There are also weapon turrets in some of the maps too.

For a communist (who wants the masses to run his life) that is a very strange attitude to take. Contradictory, at the very least.

I've been playing the demo, it is definitely fun, but I don't know if I'd play $50 for it. Seems like I'd be paying a lot, in part for the priviledge of being insulted and degraded by a bunch of middle schoolers who find it cool to misspell words.

Is there really $50 more of stuff in the retail version as opposed to the demo? What is the single player game? Is it just the same multiplayer stuff, but with bots? (Personally, I have no problem with that... bots tend to demonstrate fewer antisocial personality traits.)

Well, the retail version comes with over 100 levels and some game modes that aren't in the demo (mutant is fun). And it should be $40 not $50. I did manage to pick mine up for free though .

As far as single player goes, I haven't really played much of it yet. I do know that it's got kind of a storyline with unlockable stuff. It seems good at a glance.

$39.99 at most stores

The single player game is great... I've played it more than MP so far. There is Assault (Mission driven scenarios), there's onslaught (a capture and control type game with drivable vehicles), there's a basketball type game where you carry a ball and try to put it through the enemies' "hoop", and there's the normal FPS modes with bots (CTF, DM, TeamDM).

It is definitely worth the money. And this is coming from the mad warez king.

I can totally understand that. I rarely play anything online anymore, because it's just awful to be on a team of retards. I've only played UT2004 single player and LAN so far and I still think it's worth it (lots o LAN play ).

I hated that demo-map... and everybody I know who have tried the demo also hated that map... it's just a basic UT2k3/4 map... I wish there were more maps from the original UT game in the game. Those maps were defently much better than the maps in UT2k3/4


I wish they have done something for the "Last man standing" game-mode... I love the idea in LMS where you have to avoid getting killed, but the fact that you start with ALL weapons kills the point... and then the fact that you'll be able to win if you keep hiding


The onslaught mode is more interesting. I also like that you're able to edit the 'links' yourself... makes it possible to make some interesting (unlogical) maps
