Ut2k4?

N1ghtw0lf · June 6th, 2003

I was searching for some files on 3dgamers tonight and dicovered these...though it doesnt look like a whole new game...it looks more like an expansion...

Gamer1 · June 6th, 2003

yea, it's going to be more like bf1942.

N1ghtw0lf · June 6th, 2003

will it be a whole new game?

**DarkAurora** · June 6th, 2003

I plan on purchasing UT2k3 soon, so I really hope UT2k4 is just an expansion to UT2k3.

The first screens of Digital Extremes' Unreal Tournament 2004 have some features that are not all that interesting -- the backgrounds and characters, which look much like those of the last installment in the series -- and some features that are very interesting -- the drivable vehicles, including a flying fighter and an armed dune buggy. Vehicular combat is becoming a more and more common feature of online first-person shooters, but it will nevertheless be interesting to see the Unreal take on the concept.

nothing more than logical;
new games are ultra-super-duper complex, and take a long time to develop. especially the engine and then you have to come up with all the designs, etc.
So a trend you see is when a new big game is released, the life of all the work put in it gets extended by making relatively simple to make add-ons/sequels. That also helps making money on it.

I just got UT2003 also so I'll have to see what this addon will be like

N1ghtw0lf · June 6th, 2003

well it might not e an addon but all the characters and weapons look the same...kinda odd...guess we'll just have to wait and see...

Gamer1 · June 6th, 2003

ut2k4 is an expansion of ut2k3, digital extremes said it themselves. i forgot where i read it, but i'll post the link as soon as i could find it.

N1ghtw0lf · June 6th, 2003

awesome...UT Never had expansions really...besides return to na pali but that was more of an expansion for Unreal...It just happened to work on UT...if it's an expansion I'll definately get it and at least check it out...but my UT dirrector is already 5 gigs...

Adair · June 6th, 2003

A reliable friend of mine was telling me that UT2k4 will include the complete UT2k3 game and will be adding stuff in such as the vehicles and new game types. All the UT2k3 weapons will be included and probably a couple of new weapons.

That same friend got to see an early build of UT2k3 and UC(Xbox) at E3 2 years ago and he told me that they had vehicles and some other stuff that actually didn't make it into UC or UT2k3. So it seems to me like UT2k4 is going to be adding in all the things that were originally planned for UT2k3 and UC.

I watched a short video(from E3 2003) that showed the vehicles in action and I was not impressed. They seemed to move very fast which may make the game more chaotic rather than fun, but of coarse I'll give it a chance when the game is released. Hopefully they'll release a vehicle demo in the future.

I hope they make a cheaper version that doesn't include the original game and a more expensive version that does.

Dark Diablo · June 21st, 2003

I do hope it is like UT 2003 but still better graphics, weapons and levels.

I saw some screenies somewhere...

N1ghtw0lf · July 2nd, 2003

as far as i know they aren't puttin better graphics...adding 2 game modes with vehicles to make it more like Battlefield 1942...and then of course you can play the classic game modes that came with ut2k3

RF · July 2nd, 2003

Looks more of a halo type to me, I wont buy it tho.

N1ghtw0lf · July 2nd, 2003

I'll tell you if its any good...i cant not buy any unreal games...dunno why...
