Anyone playing UT2K4 here?

Just wondering while endlesly trying to bring traffic here.

I play the demo.

Well, Torlan is the best map.

Primeval is just boring though.

I find it odd that such an excellent game has so few players online.

It sometimes seems there are more mods for it than actual players.

What's the next Unreal game for the PC?

[Shiroko]

Should be Unreal Tournament 2006 which should be using the Unreal 3.0 engine. But there might be a singleplayer Unreal 3 game.

A little bit late, but since I'm following the Unreal-engine for it's great work on Deus Ex, I'll give you what I know (if you haven't found out by yourself yet).

1. Yes, the next generation of Unreal-engine is kown as Unreal-Engine 3.0.

2. Yes, there will be another Unreal Tournament - and it is called Unreal Tournament 2007. As it's name reveals, the game will be released in 2007.

3. Nobody knows if a "Unreal 3" will be released. This could very well be the case since previous generations of the Unreal-engine first released a "Unreal" single-player game, shortly followed by a "Tournament" game. If so, the earliest date I could give you is late 2006 for U3, and early 2007 for UT2007.

4. For Deus Ex-fans, since previous DX-games have been made on the Unreal-engine, it is possible that Eidos now awaits the Unreal-engine 3.0 to be finished before adapting the engine to the third game. If a DX3 is to be made is unknown.

Hey, by the way, is there anyone here who uses the UT2004 map editor - and if so, is it difficult to use?
