Rogue15 Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 I need to either upgrade my video card or buy a new computer. it won't even start the loading sequence for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Got it, playing it, and it's good (if you like that sort of thing ). It's a bit different from the original, and some of the differences I like, and some I don't. Assault mode is missing, and should be brought back, IMO. So should local stats. It feels a bit Quakeified, which doesn't suit my particular taste, but the maps are good, the graphics are great, the physics add spice. I'd say try the demo first if you haven't already, because it does play somewhat differently from UT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorganfloss Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Its too bad they dont have those handguns anymore. It was cool having two at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckcsaber Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Damn! No more enforcers! I loved going around blasting away with 2 handguns John Woo style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormHammer Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Originally posted by gorganfloss Its too bad they dont have those handguns anymore. It was cool having two at a time. I absolutely agree with you there. Nothing like pumping 4-5 rounds into the head of your opponent to get a kill...or just getting in close and letting rip with secondary fire. I'm not fussed on the new sniper rifle, either. I'd have preferred the Shockrifle with a zoom, rather than a lightning gun. The absence of the Ripper? Hmmm....undecided on that one. It was a spammy weapon...and I didn't like secondary fire...but it was also nice for getting headshots. I just hope someone does an explosive ammo mutator...heh.

Boba Rhett Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 It moves to fast like Quake. Other than that, I'm pretty happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorganfloss Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 The best part about UT2k3 is dying. Its hilarious seeing yourself hit numerous ledges while hearing the crack of bones. Then having your self land on your head and bounce around. Its great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TiE23 Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I have the Demo and it rocks! I like making suicide scores on bombing run because when you fall, you hit bars and you tumble and flip! Ragdoll is soo cool, I wish I could get the full version but I don't have the money right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceElf Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 I'll be getting it, but broke now. Excuse me for lameness and stupidity but what did you mean by h-p? Edit: just rembered Hermes-Palace.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockV1.89 Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 HP probably means hit points. Old RPG term. I plan on getting it soon, as soon as I finish xmas shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrSk8er Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 isnt there like vehicles that if you shoot a certain part, like a wheel, it'll go flat and stuff like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clem Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 not that ive seen skater im still forming an opinion on this game the ion painter ..... ROCKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Simpson Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 Eh, didn't care for it much. It's too fast for me, I'd like the slower UT pace back please. I'd actually rather play Quake 3 than UT 2003. Graphics are purdy though, and the Math engine physics are awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C'jais Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 I think H-P means Hermes Place (the oh so fabled server), but why do you want to start a clan like that in ut2k3? It's probably alright with Jah, but I don't see the point unless you have a "hermes place"-server in that game as well.... And the tag just won't be the same without the colors Speaking of which, can you do colored names in that game as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clem Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 im gonna force jah to make the HP server UT2k3 instead i wish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShockV1.89 Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 The basic instructions and commands for vehicles are there, and theres a little demo vehicle in it, but no actual vehicles that shipped with the game. They're either gonna let the community do that (there's insstructions on them, I think), or they'll ship some vehicle based maps with a bonus pack (there will be one).

FatalStrike Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 The game is great, it is a little to fast but you get used to it. I like the adren powers that they have now, speed rocks in Bombing run! Speaking of Bombing run, Why TF didn't Raven thing of this game type. It ownz! The levels rock, the weapons were made less spammable which makes the rockets feel weak but in the long run its better for the on-line game. The lightening gun was added so that snipers could still kill from a distance but they would be spotted easily, so as to prevent the annoying super campers of UT.

C'jais Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Just tried the demo last night: Great game over all, I'm thinking of bying it tomorrow. A little too fast compared to the original I feel, but a quake clone isn't that bad IMHO. I've thought about a football like mod for First Person Shooters for a long, long time, a shame it's only now that it's recognized.... Graphics are great too, I hope they include the ragdoll effect for the "real game" - Unreal 2. The shock rifle is ugly, they could have made it look better. The bio rifle doesn't tie in well with the style of the other weapons at all - downright disgusting. The sniper is okay, but they could have made the beam look like it belonged to a pinpoint accuracy weapon (it looks way too random). Why do the corpses dissappear after 3 friggin' seconds??? It would be way too cool to have them stay around and get blasted to oblivion by nearby firefights.... Speaking of which: Why can't you blow up them corpses like in the prequel? They've already shown they can detach limbs, why not have it done on corpses as well??? The grenade launcher on the rifle needs a lot more "oomph", you barely notice or hear the grenade being launched. The water is excellent, but it doesn't react to objects like the water in Outcast did - now *that* game had über l33t water! Yeah, I know I'm nitpicking extremes here, because it truly is a good game.... Way to follow up on UT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
