MooN: About official release dates, we know that the game will be released in USA before than in Europe. But we don´t know the exact release date for Europe. What´s the official release date for the release of UT2003 in Europe?
Tim: We are aiming for simultaneous release in Europe and North America.
Tim: You´ll get good performance on any 1 + GHz PC with a GeForce2, Radeon 7500, or later video card. The game will be playable on even earlier PC´s, but not at performance levels that competitive gamers will expect.
Tim: Hardware that runs UT2003 at a steady 60 fps hasn´t shipped yet. Unreal Tournament 2003´s polygon counts are around 100X higher than Unreal Tournament´s polygon counts. Remember, when Unreal Tournament shipped, it ran at 30 fps on the average PC, and around 45 fps on the then top-of-the-line PC´s available. This trend will continue with UT2003, shipping a game that´s quite leading-edge at the time of its release, realizing that in a year most new PC´s will run it at 60 fps.
