I wish you could turn dodging off, never liked it!

Dodging is the best thing EVER in UT imo, you can double jump but a forwards dodge (dodge sideways BUT quickly mouse look forwards so in effect you're dodging sideways BUT going forwards, much better than the standard double forward dodge) is so much better you get more distance and can jump great distances! I'll do a video demonstrating what you with the dodge move as it's such a nice feature to use when you're in a tight pinch and need somewhere to quickly vanish to where you enemy cannot follow so easily.

Double dodge rocks, it was a very important thing that you needed to use in UT2004 instagib CTF to be even good, I dont think it'll be any diffo in UT3, damn I hope my copy comes today, its probs friday or thursday I'll get it.
 
Played all night yesterday. It's UT alright! I think 8/10 is a fair score atm, but if they patch up the interface, graphics bugs and AI it might be worth a nine :) It seems faster than UT2004, am I wrong?
 
Well in ut2k4 you could double tap a key and then jump just before you hit the ground and you do another strafe jump. You can't do that in ut3. Wall jumps are still there though.

I think it's better, not that I played ut2k4 much.
 
Takes a bit of getting used to and skill, but once you're good at it it's great fun trying to move around the map as fast as posible and dodging rockets etc.

It wouldn't be UT without it. :p
 
So how do I do this dodge? Double-tap direction key then jump?

Yes. You get a massive bound this way in 2k4.

Also, try wall jumping but parallel to the wall (jump forwards then mid-jump, turn at least 135 degrees so you are almost facing the way you jumped, double tap left or right away from wall depending on if the wall is to your left or right, and when you boost off the wall turn back to face the original direction - this will make you do a wall hugging jump).
 
Bought this game yesturday after hearing its decent reviews etc. However, my pc spec isn't the greatest but i was hoping that it would run slightly better than it does (AMD64 3700+ @ 2.8ghz, 2GB RAM, x1950 pro 512mb, clean XP)

Got the post filtering on the lowest, 1280x1024, 75% screen rendering, and the two graphics options below set to 2 out of 5. No aa or af using cat 7.11. The game runs at around 35fps most of the time, but stutters like mad at the start. The game also looks so awful at low settings. It looks worst than UT2003 did on the same settings!

Any suggestions as to tips or tweaks? At the moment its pretty much unplayable. :mad:
 
It was same in UT2004 for me as it is un UT3, Double jump, Double dodge.


Dodge jumping has been taken out, you cannot dodge jump in UT3, you can however strafe jump -> big difference in the movement in UT3 and 04.
If it's the same as in 04 for you, you never mastered 04's movement ;)
 
Just a double tap in direction should do.

I never got on with it though as it always seems to dodge when I don't want it to, often making me fall into the goop!


Yeah it can be a bit twitchy to say the least. Maybe it depends on what sort/quality keyboard you have, but I seem to double strafe when I don't need to.
 
Hi, just got this game. I played for 10 mins and out of a sudden the game locks up and had to reboot pc. Any idea? Other games are fine, just UT3.
