*Unreal Tournament III*Thread :o) Game Pics & Performance.

imo:

  • Flak Cannon fires too slow maybe, seems all right to me
  • Scorpion primary fire damages the manta too easily manta outruns scorpion easily, balance is fine and it's quite easy to avoid if you know it's there
  • The map "biohazard" needs making bigger imo, too small and it leads to being smashed apart by impact hammers constantly no comment, except I like the impact hammer :p
  • Goliath needs to be strengthened, its far to weak and can be easily taken down goliath is already strong enough... yesterday I spawned directly into the goliath's line of fire 4 times and in a row and died every time. There's already very little you can do if it's in a good location.
  • Skitching on hoverboard with fast vehicles needs to be improved, you either fall straight off or loose health from bashing into things you know you have to steer yourself too? It is too easy to fall off of a fury when there are two people but otherwise fine. The main problem is with drivers who don't drive carefully enough and slam you into the ground :(
  • Improved loading times between matches yep
 
I was on about the goliaths armour, agreed its attack ability is great but its armour is weak and a few missile hits and boom its gone.

I know you can steer while skitching but it does it to slow and i agree, you get soem idiot drivers who pretend you not holding on for dear life at the back.
 
I'm so ****** off. Last year I invested loads on my PC and the games were crap. Then I bought a stupid laptop for Uni which can't run anything. Gears Of War, COD4, UT3, Crysis... all have been sold straight on via the MM or eBay. GRRRRR
 
Does anybody have a Prelude 7.1 who is using the latest Dolby Live driver.



and got it to work with UT3 without cracking/popping/screeching all over the place!
 
This game is a complete piece of ****. Wont even start on my system even at stock levels. Tried 5 reinstalls already and all I ever get is UT3.exe has encountered an error blah blah blah. Really unhappy with this seen as every other game works flawlessly. I have the latest drivers for everything, max fan speeds on everything and fail safe options but nooo, still doesnt work.
 
i wanna know how ppl get so good at the 'warfare' gametype in ut3 its so onnoying i keep getting pwned everytime i come 'withing seein range' of the point i need to be getting to Grrrrr :( i seem to be ok at deathmatchs n ctf now iv gotten used to it, i can finish within the top 5 of the scorechart in most matchs i play, i struggle with the larger more 'open' maps really.
 
one thing i also wonder is... why does it always have to be Capture the Flag, thats so boring now, cant we be taking something more interesting??? maybe they could make 'Capture the Q6600' :D i beleive this would help motivate me more when playing this gametype :p

who agrees??? (feel free to post other suggestions) :D

For some reason I don't even find these kinds of games fun....I like the good ole deathmatch.

I think you're looking for TF2, That has capture the Intel. We can assume it's an Intel Q6600 :p

With regards to warfare I try to avoid joining servers with more than 24 players as they tend to be quite laggy / spammy. 24 or less is a good number for warfare imo, preferably more like 16, as long as people know what they're doing.
warfare is very tactical and it's quite satisfying when you know your team couldn't have won without you... that sounds quite self-centred :p but there have been quite a few games where, for example, the core is down to a few health and I've triggered the avalanche on the enemy prime and we've gone on to win (okay that's only happened once, but similar things like that). One time I went all the way to the enemy barricade before realising they'd already destroyed it, went all the way back to our own and got killed... heh.

Knowing the maps / how the orb works etc is the best way to win. Unfortunately sometimes there will be people who don't know what they're doing, pick up the orb because they've been told to, and then get in a turret at the core :(. Getting the orb to the right place at the start of the round really matters, specially on maps like serenity where the orb spawns in an annoyingly distant place unless you have the centre node. On avalanche it's best take the orb straight to the centre node at the start imo, otherwise you need to take the orb all the way back from the core to the centre node, which is just a waste of time when it can be constructed normally in that time. Similar situation on downtown although not as important as the orb respawns at prime node.

Anyway.. best way to get points in warfare is to orb run, you can set your mode (dunno what you call it) to orb runner in the f2 menu, but it often still spawns you seemingly as far away as possible from the orb. Also repair / build nodes where possible.

dunno where this post is going so I'll end it here for now :p

Its a pigeon ;)



Downloaded the demo yesterday, was mildly dissapointed. I was expecting one of the new warfare maps in it, like 2k4 had two onslaught maps in it. Instead, there's just the usual deathmathc, 1v1 and V-CTF.
I wanted to see how good the Warfare mode is, since I loved the Onslaught in 2k4 :(
