UT2003 Gold [Sep 20, 2002, 08:24 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
After a sprinkling of false rumors yesterday, a post to the Infogrames, Inc. Forums
by Epic's Mark Rein (thanks JP) has word that Unreal Tournament 2003 has
gone gold as of 5:00 AM EDT this morning, and the game is expected in stores by
the end of the month. He describes the contents of the three CD distribution,
which will include the game and its over 35 levels, tools including Maya
Personal Learning Edition from Alias|Wavefront, The Karma Authoring Tool, a mod
"starter kit," the game's Linux support (which is not mentioned in the
packaging), including the client and the server. He also mentions plans for
future related releases such as a stand-alone server which will not require
ownership of the game, the UDE (Unreal Development Environment), a customized
version of Gmax, and other cool features for a bonus pack. In a
later post (thanks Unreality),
Mark also lists the names of the 37 maps the game will ship with.
1) Destructable terrain.
No not in, not worthwhile to me.
2) Destructable environment.
There will be exploding items and such. Can do it in Uscript.
3) Environmental effects: day/night, fog, rain...
Some levels have rain, fog, or snow.
4) Adding more weapons: create new weapons or re-incarnate some of those best weapons from other games....maybe a weak gun with a secondary fixed range teleport, flame-throwers, ice weapons
Yeah, shoulda been some new weapon ideas, the current ones are kinda run of the mill.
5) Player choices that can impact the game: armor that slows you down, encumberance for carrying massive loads of weapons/ammo.
This will happen in single player.
6) Different shielding systems : maybe something that protects against high energy, another protects against mechanical etc...but only one can be used at a time.
One shield ins enough IMO.
7) More items that you can pick up that can impact the play. Again, perhaps inspiration from other games can be sought....
Not in this type of game, supposed to be sport like, and that would make the playing field not level.
I think a lot of the cooler stuff will be in the final game.
Too bad the motherfuckers sold out to the CPL, and made the game gold before they fixed a lot of the problems! I would rather see the problems fixed than have crap like what you're mentioning in the game!
