Epic Games invites you to check out Unreal Tournament 3 Black, completely free of charge starting tomorrow, and on till Sunday. Now why are they doing this? Well, Epic Games say, "Thursday, September 17, marks the 10-year anniversary of the original Unreal Tournament demo release, and to celebrate Epic will kick off a long weekend in which anyone can log onto Valve’s Steam digital distribution service ([url]www.steamgames.com[/url]), download Unreal Tournament 3 Black and play the game through the weekend free of charge. Preload for the Free Weekend begins today." This is great news for Unreal Tournament Fans (such as myself), to try out the new game, and see if you like it before you buy it. So remember to go to [url]www.steamgames.com[/url], and download the game before the weekend is up! [url=http://www.blpgaming.com][source][/url]

Not gonna post that "You Are Late" video. Even though you deserve it

Fuck that; they're discounting the Unreal Deal pack by 60% and the original UT will cost $1.99 this weekend. UT99 alone is worth it.

[QUOTE=Beau Phos;17349892]Not gonna post that "You Are Late" video. Even though you deserve it[/QUOTE] How is this late? They just posted this on the News Releases this morning...like at 12am..

Oh you must be new here. Welcome to Facepunch, don't be even a minute late in posting anything and you'll do just fine! Personally, unless someone's posting something where a thread already exists in that section or posting say, month-old news, I think the whole "late" rating is bullshit. I just ignore ratings altogether.

Again a free weekend? If they continue this, they might as well make it completely free :buttertroll:

There is always new mods for games. :bang:

You said something about new mods? Well? Where's the list?

[QUOTE=The_Marine;17351719]You said something about new mods? Well? Where's the list?[/QUOTE] Oh crap, thanks for reminding me xD I added it to the article on BLPGaming. It was like 1:30 in the morning when I made this, so yeah xP

So, uh, can I install The Haunted and that C&C remake mod and play those?

Yes on The Haunted and no on Renegade X since it's not even out yet, afaik.

Gonna try Sanctum and maybe SteamRacers, I've got UT3 on steam :dance:

Even though I've got UT3 Black it's still cheaper for me to buy the pack than to buy all the remaining games on the pack by themselves.

Valve did the internet a great service in making Steam. It shall continue to thrive for many years to come.

might re-install UT3, haven't played in ages

It isn't any good and is run by 17 year olds.

That reminds me, I need to check if the new Angels Fall First RC has been released.

bought that piece of shit 3 months ago for about 10$... not even worth that money... i looooooved ut2k3/4 but this is shit.

[QUOTE=BloodYScar;17356658]bought that piece of shit 3 months ago for about 10$... not even worth that money... i looooooved ut2k3/4 but this is shit.[/QUOTE] I agree that it wasn't as good as ut2003/2004, but it wasn't shit

[QUOTE=BloodYScar;17356658]bought that piece of shit 3 months ago for about 10$... not even worth that money... i looooooved ut2k3/4 but this is shit.[/QUOTE] hey stop whining i paid 55 euros on it on release day expecting it to be as good as UT2004 FML

I just bought UT3. :saddowns: Well, live and learn, I suppose.

Another free weekend comes and goes, it's not like it'll add do anything for UT3's community. I've lost all faith in that lifeless game :(

I bought it a few months ago, it's not bad. I'd prolly keep playing it if more people played online or if there were any good mods with a good playerbase.

The servers are constantly too busy to download it.

Play the mods for it. There are a couple of threads I made knocking around this section but you can find them via my profile. The Haunted is a 4-man zombie survival co-op (No, it does not fucking rip-off Left4Dead), you get to do kung-fu and rolls and shit like a crazy motherfucker. Zombies are pretty strong, the generic ones take 3+ shots from the starting pistol to kill, and the rest all have special abilites of some kind. You gain weapons and ammo by killing X number of zombies, although there are specials to be found here and there (Nitrogen gun, freezes them and you can cause them to shatter, and remote detonated dynamite sticks). Angels Fall First is sort of like Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. Pretty generic in terms of weapons and vehicles, but it's still fun as fuck. The next release (Or current, I've yet to check) has done A LOT of balancing and bugfixing, and I think there's more content too. There are two types of map, one where it's a land battle and one team defends against the other, trying to prevent the taking/destroying of objectives. The second type is space combat. The players spawn inside capital ships, and can choose to captain it or use one of the turrets, or they can take fighters/bombers from the hangars. You can also spawn aboard one of the boarding craft (They have interiors too, but nowhere near as vast as the capitals. A pilot's seat, two gunners and a large cargo/passenger bay), and attempt to latch on to a hostile capital and invade it, destroying its core.

Efff, I have Ut2004, but I'm thinking about buying the pack anyways, because I want MOAR games in my steam account.

It's kinda funny how it's called Unreal Tournament 3 since there never really was a real UT2. Only UT2003 and UT2004, but that was 2 games so if those count then UT3 would really be UT4. But I guess they're trying to cover up the failure of UT2003 :v: [editline]01:56AM[/editline] Unless they count from the Unreal series. Unreal, Unreal 2: The awakening, Unreal Tournament 3. But that would just be silly and confusing.
