Some of you may know of The Haunted mod for UT3.
v3.0 has just been released and it will be the last release before the mod is ported to the UDK and made a standalone game. That's right, it will be its own separate and free standalone game for everyone to download and play.
For those of you who don't know here's the features list of the game:
[quote]
The Haunted is a fast paced thirdperson horror-action game with focus on a intense multiplayer experience that is all about making a stand and liberating cursed places from the minions of evil. The game features several multiplayer modes such as coop or demons .vs. humans where enemies are spawned and controlled by players. The outstanding visuals lay a perfect tone for the gameplay.
* Playing as human is action focused survival gameplay with a huge arsenal of weapons and melee attacks in the vein of Resident Evil, but with total freedom in movement and more intense, direct combat.
* Undead humanoid monsters come in many variations and approach from everywhere to give you the feeling of a real fight for your life. There is no place to hide, together or alone. In addition to that, watch out for dangerous traps and environmental hazards.
* Some multiplayer modes can have players taking control of vicious demon masters. Here you can spawn monsters and play them by yourself, or place traps and trigger the environmental hazards to create a unpredictable threat for the humans.
* The locations feature an almost mystical atmosphere, provided by awesome graphics and effects. Damage is shown on the characters with blood splatter, dirt and scars along with post processing effects and physical hit animations.
* Solo Mode: The singleplayer mode pits one human against the forces of evil.
* Coop Mode: Up to 4 human players have to make a stand against the undead.
Send as much as possible back to hell and redeem the souls of fallen comrades.
* Battle Mode: 4 Human players against 4 demons.
* Demonizer: Similar to coop, but each dead human will turn into a demon until no one is left.

Also, apparently many of the servers running in the mod are using these custom maps. You'll want to get them.

fuck YES finally i was wondering if it was going to go standalone just as Prometheus did
This looks epic and a very good Resident Evil 4/Killing Floor Mix I would buy it if it were to not be free

Buy UT3 and download the current version then.
Looks good
How are animations?
[QUOTE=gReplay;18270614]Buy UT3 and download the current version then.[/QUOTE]
Why? I can just wait for the standalone version.
[QUOTE=Factory;18270641]Looks good

To be honest, most are decent but some are just HORRIBLE. Like the ladder climbing one, for instance.
[QUOTE=DeandreT;18270663]Why? I can just wait for the standalone version.[/QUOTE]
You can play other UT3 mods.
All of which are playerless.
UT3 is a waste of money, no reason to buy it now since all of the mods for it are going to be standalone soon enough.
Trailer music?
Lul, it was a decent mod but there was barely any players and it wasn't anything special, being a (slight) clone of L4D but in an more arcade style.
Notice all these mods going standalone money games.
Modding isn't an artform now, it's just another business.
:(
All these "zombies" remind me of killing floor style
i remember this mod, it war very fun.
Now i want the Angels Fall First mod to be ported to standalone.
Is it also for the PS3? I'd love to play this.

Two points, The PS3 edition has a size cap, it might be possible but I'm unsure (models certainly work, and some are really good)
You'd have to ask the Develpoers.
Secondly, it's almost stand alone, unless you have a PC from the stone age (even i had a Stone age PC and it worked for me.) you might as well get it for PC.
hell yeah, i liked it. wasted 10€ on UT3 just to play this. Never found any server though...
[QUOTE=BloodYScar;18282161]hell yeah, i liked it. wasted 10€ on UT3 just to play this. Never found any server though...[/QUOTE]
That was always my issue with it too, never any servers.
I can't wait. Now I don't have to borrow UT3 just for mods. :smile:
Fuck yes! Great news for my friend who doesn't have UT3!

Yeah I agree. But, I just don't even play UT3 that much. Maybe if they had that 10 dollar deal thing again. But until then I can wait..
This has great potential if the devs keep updating it. I've got the UT3 mod but I'll wait for standalone since I assume that'll get way more players.
Sounds awesome
UT2004 has always been an ugly spamfest. All mods to it looks like shite, this is no exception.
Wow just from watching that video I can see:
-Terrible terrible animations
-Really shitty ragdolls
-Pathetic excuses for particle effects
-Maps that are not all that detailed
I wouldn't play this shit for free

Ragdolls and particle effects ruin the entire game :rolleyes:
I was going to download this sometime, but now I'm just going to wait for the standalone.

Why do they look like midgets?
The video just shouts "ut3 mod!" to me. It uses the standard graphics engine and shaders so it looks like a custom map for ut3 with playermodel changes.
