hi all,
does any body still play ut99 online?
i was talked back into playing it online again about 3 months ago after not playing it for around 3 years.i love it,its just so well balanced gameplay.thats exactly what i like and personally i still think that graphically it still looks so good after almost 10 years of being released.
cheers spunky

UT03 was always a favourite, with UT04 coming a close second!

facing worlds IIRC was one of the best maps. Takes me back a long time to LAN parties.

never played it b4 i was about 6 when it came out lol

I've got a LAN party coming up at the end of May, but I think we'll be playing L4D.

BOOOOOOOOM!

<creaky old voice> bah kids today!!<shuffles off>

The good old days of Counterstrike 0.7 <goes all teary eyed>, playing magestorm
No Lan parties nowdays. But thanks to broadband and people moving all over the country we can just connect up on a private server and have fun.

These LAN parties include, a [LIFTED] load of alcohol and no food. Hahah

2k4 is classic

We had it (year away from uni) on the games lab at uni on about 20 machines so would play it over lunch on massive games like Onslaught

Which Lan Party doesn't? (Only food can be nibbles or BBQ food)

Why '03 over '04?

UT:GOTY Edition, played it almost religiously for the first year at college, well, that and Halo, how we passed the first year I don't know....

2K4 in LMS mode is a classic, I wasted so much of my life playing that. Got to number 7 on the Epic LMS leader board though since then I seem to have lost my skills. Perhaps its to do with the fact I don't play 6 hours a day any more.....

Hobgob.

I actually agree with Fin for once. We used to do that in the IT suite at break times, lunch and after school. Twas epic.

And yes, UT99 is still a bloody brilliant game. Graphics look good even now, and it still plays like a modern game.

x404 UT99 Gamers Night, anyone?

^^

I cut my teeth on UT Classic. My mate had just bought a Voodoo 3 which won't mean anyfing to the yoof, but it looked awesome.
It inspired me to go out and get my very first nVidia card - a TNT2!

Superb game, I have the GOTY edition and still play and I happen to love facing worlds. Although morpheus was always the level that my friend Al and I practiced on. We set the 6 bots to average, a frag limit of 10 and a time limit of 2 minutes and challenged each other to continually improve our performance! I think my best was about 50 seconds to spare, but that was a long time ago.

The new generations of the game were never the same and they also brought the "sit-at-home-all-day-in-your-pants-getting-annoyingly-unbeatable" generation which made online play tedious for me as I actually had a life and couldn't perfect my game like these people.

Kels, your idea of a LAN party is very similar to mine Except we used to have haribo and maoam as well as alcohol! Oh and we'd usually start out with a pizza or two early on. My first multiplayer experience was Starcraft and that was right after computing A-level at college where we would take over the lab and 8 of us would rock awesome 3hr long games. That inspired a few of us to carry on the tradition long after we left college!
