UT3 & Me...

So I got this game over the weekend and its produced one of the oddest bugs I think Ive ever seen or heard of in a game. After installing the game and rebooting as per usual my PC hangs on the OS selection screen. Now "if" I had a dual boot system this wouldnt be terribly odd, but since I have NEVER had this PC set up for such a thing all I can think is "WTF Mate?". :huh:

boot.ini here I come...

Other than that if you are into UT or have been at any time this is a very worthy succesor to the francise. The visuals are insane, and the new Necris vehicles are some of the most original and creepy-cool things Ive ever seen. They have replaced the Minigun with a new version of the old Unreal 1 Stinger. Primary fire is the standard high rof shards while alt fire is slower with the whole F.E.A.R/Painkiller Stake/Spike gun thing where you knockback or pin opponents to different objects in the map. So far its been very fun, and with new mutators coming out every day I wouldnt be supprised to see a TF style one soon. (If not someone needs to make one...) Only thing I can gripe about is they didnt include my favorite UT style game Assault, but there is enough outcry on the forums about this that I imagine it will be coming soon.

Peace!

Ohh, I also picked up SoF: Payback, which came with the original Q2 based SoF1 (Best looking Q2 game ever! And someone did a TF mod for it) for $30. Quite a bargain IMO, I would have paid that much for a new copy of SoF1! Payback is very gory and very beautiful, some of the most fantastic looking outdoor areas I have ever seen. Gameplay is realistic-ish if somewhat frustrating since most of the baddies are quite well camoflaged and hide in the bushes quite well.

As you progress you get upgrades and modifications for exsisting weapons and access to new ones. Been a real BLAST, literally!

I enjoyed playing UT back in the day. If UT3 is as good as you say it is, then I may have to check it out.

TF mod for Soldier of Fortune? Hmmm........

I did a google for it and unfortunatly the mod died as interest wasnt there. Back when I was playing SoF1 I was really excited about it then Q3F came out and I just forgot about it lol.

:(
