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.
WAY back in Spring of 99 I was a pretty good Q2 player but never used the railgun cause I had only 56k. I was strictly a chain and rockets man, if you know what I mean. Well, while switching mods I started to play on a custom map server and was insulted many times for having no skills. So I decided to go only rail because that week I got cable modem (albiet Analog, all that was available here, but it cut my pings from 300 to 180). Well I used only railgun in the Weapons of Destruction mod (where chainguns fire shotgun shells, MG's fire rockets, rockets fire napalm rockets, etc), and in about 10 weeks achieved a 40percent rate of fire and ranked as one of the top players in the mod. I will say that at first it was VERY tough, I spent a lot of time hiding. I learned, too, to appreciate my shots and not miss any that I could help it with. In time my rail was feared on every server I played on and I could kill 6 or 8 other players with 10 shots, even in close.
So give the hitscan time, you will appreciate the skills.
