my attitude towards UT2003 changed a bit when i got a slightly better comp, and i bet it'll be a decent game with a very good comp.
but i really do understand people with anything lower then 1800+ and GF4Ti that it'll be harsh to like a game that judders and doesn't run ...basically... at all
UT2004 will be a decent game, but i can't resist pointing to the obvious flaws i did before, first the name will raise expectations it can't fullfill because it's DIFFERENT, not better, not worse (okay prolly worse
) but it'll be different nonetheless
and i fear for the "community". Why do people play and stick with UT, because there's awesome people in it, and lots of em. Afaik UT2003 servers aren't halve as busy as UT still, and won't due to the key protection, and i doubt UT2004 will.. because you need: Lots of people, with DECENT comps (as in big-ass decent, else the game will run shite), that will be able to afford the game, and then play it...
i doubt there would be any community in AS, BR or DDOM (or whatever gamemod xept perhaps DM and CTF) halve as big as this one, perhaps in about 2/3 years...
let's see what the future has in store
edit: about the UT2004 review, has everyone ever seen a player invited to a beta-LAN that had the guts to write a totally devastating review?
