GGs everybody, that was much fun. Today was the first time I played UT3 in a couple of months. Not a bad change of pace, but I still like UT2k4 better :^D
i tried UT3. didn't like it much. i prefer UT2k4. if we do a 2k4 game, i'm so in.
UT3 gets spammy so damned quick. I like UT2k4 with 6 or fewer players, and UT3 with 4 or fewer. In reality the most fun I've had in UT3 has been with 1v1s.
The whole UT3 thing was kind of a kick in the balls. I was burning out a bit on UT2k4, and was really looking forward to customizing a new avatar, and just seeing some new sights. I knew they were making gameplay changes I didn't agree with, but I figured I'd still have fun with some new taunts, and just clowning around on the server. Well, the game was a failure in just about all respects. They improved a couple of weapons, and ruined some others. The gui is abysmal, and Gamespy can kiss my ass. I'm sure the PS3 players are enjoying having a decent FPS for a change, but for PC gamers(or at least me) it's a huge letdown in configurability, and general usability.
I have fun with it on occasion, but that has more to do with playing with friends, and not the game itself. I'd love to see Epic release a UT3.5 ala UT2k3-UT2k4, but I'm not holding my breath :^/
