Holy Shit..Unreal Tournament 2004
 

Played the UT 2004 demo last night. What an awesome freakin' game. The onslaught mode was fan-fucking-tastic...can't wait until this game hits the shelves. Anyone else play it?

I don't really like the Unreal 2004 series, but I'll download the demo and see for myself.

Is it anything like 2003?
Cuz 2003 sucked a bit compared to the original...

Played it for a few days.. It was a pretty fun game.. I mean the same onslaught level over and over and over again kind of got tedious, but was wicked fun..

Yeah, I've been playing it a bit here and there, it's pretty good. I wouldn't say it's the best i've ever seen, but it definitely gets some good bonus points on the fun factor.

I didn't play 2003 so I don't know..but if 2003 sucked, then no way, it's not like 2004 at all. The modes are CTF, Assault, Onslaught, Team Deathmatch, Deathmatch and one other one that's like football but I forget the name.

The onslaught mode is awesome. The object is to destroy the opponents "power core". There are about five "power nodes" on each map and they connect to each other or the main "power core". like this:

O----o----o-----o-----o------O
blue team power core ----nodes -----red team power core

To attack the opponent's power core, you must first capture a node that connects to their core, otherwise you can't attack the core. There are some awesome vehicles (flying and driving), awesome weapons, maps and the gameplay is fast and furious.

On the demo you can play one map from each game type..Assault and Onslaught are the best but deathmatch is pretty cool and CTF is always solid. I didn't really like the football related one.

This game seriously rocks. It's been a long time since I played a demo that made me want to buy the game...oh, Painkiller is another cool game that I played last night...not as much fun as UT 2004 but still pretty cool.

pretty much the same crap but with vehicules and a new game mode.

there is a Redeemer gun on top of the tower in the middle of the map :winkwink:

Hrm, reminds me of Unreal Tournament XMP ... The game was good, but just got old after awhile.

I agree with you on that, I didn't really care for 2003 :( After buying that, I still played the original more :) I don't see why they changed domination mode like they did in 2003, the original was the best.

Other than Assault mode, I think it's pretty much a revamp of 2003.

Personally, I wasn't all that impressed. I'm sticking to Medal of Honor and Call of Duty.

are the graphics better? i'd imagine so w/ all the other next generation graphical games coming out

I think it was awesome. Goals are implemented well and you get to drive cool vehicles. It's awesome when you see a surface to air missile coming right towards the cockpit of your plane and you out maneuver it.

Yeah it must all Unreal tournaments games are great can't wait to try it.

download the demp from gamespy...unreal 2004 is addictive like crack:BangBang:

without reading everyones response ill add that this 2004 blows 2003 out the fucking water 2003 sucked was very unbalanced and with 4 or 5 patches it was a little betetr but not much ive heard that 2004 will be 6 cds or 1 dvd so the pirates will have fun wit this one :winkwink: plus im sure will have t d direct connect only until a patch si released like with the others anyways this game may be worth buying and onslaught fucking rules :thumbsup

I can't wait!:thumbsup

Still waiting for Duke Nukem Forever.
