Unreal Tournament GOTY - Die, bitch! - Games

Here's a screenshot I took of the flak cannon in-game [thumb]http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/531760829086743579/7976EDAA47DBF87ABBA5A9C1C0DE34958EC2ADA7/[/thumb] It looks so good, it's like the UT99 flak cannon I have always loved but more modernised.

It's almost like how they tried to emulate the classic look of the flak cannon in UT2k3 but with a new design. Except this i think is more successful because it gets the bulk right

Thanks to the engine being free I booted up the pre-alpha they got and I can see some promise but I do have some concerns. For example, why are there timers on spawn items? I thought it was fine when you didn't know when they were coming back. Also the redeemers current design is...strange. Not sure I like it.

half the stuff is placeholder the redeemer is literally the UT3 redeemer without the mechanism to launch it from, it's the warhead model.

The new UT4 update is pretty amazing, they added 2 new character models, an entire map completely filled with meshes and awesome ambience, and its just amazing you guys gotta check it out.

Man the effects are great (blood needs some work though) [t]http://i.imgur.com/ikqj0VL.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/4vIKLf0.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/4vfpTj1.jpg[/t] I got a really good feeling about UT4

It's pre-alpha after all. Though I didn't play UT3 enough to know that was the redeemer. I mean I did play it, but I guess the redeemer didn't leave any kind of lasting effect on me.

redeeming value*

[QUOTE=Xubs;47248095]if only more games these days had mutators and we could bask in the warm glow of the stupid mode[/QUOTE] there are people out there who say no one uses mutators i beg to differ [sp]also id love to add mutators into any game i make if i felt they could be added in any meaningful ways[/sp]

Man low grav is amazing with unlimited wall jumping UT4 has. Even in the air you can be a viable combat force as long as you have some nearby walls Also dual enforcers master race. Gangsta firemode when epic

Anyone else having problems getting bots to spawn? I try creating an offline game, setting number of combatants and selecting bots, but it does bugger all.

God the new player influx from those videos has killed their servers - so many people trying to get in a game but all lobbies just fail to load.

Does UT have an active player base? Though most games like that actual dead?

[QUOTE=aehm ?;47255051]Does UT have an active player base? Though most games like that actual dead?[/QUOTE] You can always find a couple of full servers in 99 and at least one full server in 2004. Not that great but not terrible either

Hope games like Toxikk or Reflex will bring people back to games like that, someone tested UT4 Alpha ?

[QUOTE=aehm ?;47255056]someone tested UT4 Alpha ?[/QUOTE] Yes it's very good.[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jEKw7EBf6Y[/url]

[QUOTE=Kaelazun;47255153]Yes it's very good.[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jEKw7EBf6Y[/url][/QUOTE] I will try it today too. Hope some servers are up.

[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;47261678]Am I allowed to talk about UT Alpha in here? Also obligatory quote. My house![/QUOTE] The op may only talk about UT99 but your really allowed to talk about any ut here.

And yet still, on the forums people are bitching about movement, some people are like HOO IT DOESN'T HAVE 2k4 DOUBLE JUMP GAME IS NOT UT /UNINSTALL and they are completely serious I literally have not played instagib in years It's so damn fun [video=youtube;FXu2iwdSVt4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXu2iwdSVt4[/video]

I hope they add music stages, like in tribes ascend.

Is it normal for sound to stutter on the main menu while the sound in actual gameplay acts normal?

They can make a mutator to add it instead of being lazy bums. That's the joy of a game that's actually moddable again.

Someone is apparently taking that UE4 tech demo shit and using the assets to make it into a UT4 map [video=youtube;VfxeolE-_p8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfxeolE-_p8[/video]

I feel like it kinda looks off graphically too like it doesn't look like the demo at all despite using the assets

I'm thinking of downloading the UT4 Alpha, but I'm just wondering, can it be played with bots on in offline?

[QUOTE=Badballer;47268426]I'm thinking of downloading the UT4 Alpha, but I'm just wondering, can it be played with bots on in offline?[/QUOTE] Yes.

[QUOTE=Badballer;47268426]I'm thinking of downloading the UT4 Alpha, but I'm just wondering, can it be played with bots on in offline?[/QUOTE]Make sure to let it through your firewall (i let all the executables through just to be sure), as it seems that bots don't spawn unless you do, for some bizarre reason.

Cheers guys!

So apparently 6gb is too low for UE4. I can make a UT mod, but if i try to share it the packaging process uses up all my ram and locks my computer. Time to upgrade i guess, finally
