Unreal II Patch & Demo News [Feb 13, 2003, 10:01 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A post to the Infogrames Forums
by Legend's Glen Dahlgren (thanks Jim Canuel) has word on plans for both a patch
for Unreal II, and definitive word on plans for a demo, something that was up in
the air prior to this point (story). Here's the update:
I wanted to give you all a quick update about what's happening on the home front. While we Legend guys haven't been posting here as much as we'd like (things are still pretty crazy here), I assure you we have been reading your comments and concerns, and we take them all very seriously.Update: This Infogrames Support Page (thanks Shacknews) has a new mini-patch that hopefully addresses crashing issues with EAX sound cards.
As you may have read in the forum already, we're planning on releasing a patch sometime soon. It should address a number of the issues that people have raised in these forums. As well, we're going to be releasing a demo, especially targeted at those of you who want to 'try before you buy'. It should be a great benchmark to see how the game runs on your particular system.
In a later post, I'll try to get you some specifics about both of these, but it shouldn't be too long until you've actually got them in your hands.
Thanks to everyone for your support.
Since i was introduced to Doom as my first shooter then that's the game i have fond memories of. Before that i only experienced what the Atari 800 offered 
If i played wolf then i guess Doom would have been only an incremental step up in graphics (z axis movement) better textures,models etc.. Unreal 2 certainly didn't capture the "spirit" of the first one. One issue that bothers me is the total lack of new shooters ala Hexen and Heretic and Wheel of Time. I like shooting machine guns as much as the next person but it's a cool feeling when you can place spells on baddies or your friends by turning them into sheep or the ability to fly for a certain duration
I like old dusty castles and creatures with strange abilities. Unreal 1 had castles AND space textures but still managed to intrigue simply cuz the graphics were so good. Generally, the two locales don't mix very well in single player. I really liked RTCW, the castles didn't seem to be out of place, in fact, i feel it added to the atmosphere.
