I always try to play unreal gold but find it boring compared to Doom/Quake. It tries to be like Half-Life and explaining the story through the environments, but the characters are so bullet-spongy and the weapons from what I played were pretty boring. Not sure if it's worth a playthrough.

Not even half. You can make custom bots with max stats who never miss a shot, dodge anything that isn't hitscan or have a big AOE, and lock onto you as soon as they have LOS, even if they're not looking at you.

Difficulty wise, they're fucking broken.

For me, Unreal is the best combo of old and new. Just enough abstract mapping to make things interesting and give mappers freedom, while at the same time just realistic enough so you could make out what each location supposed to be.

Enemies feel much less bulletspongy once you get to know how to dispose of them and expand your arsenal enough.

Also visuals are consistantly gorgeous throughout the game. HL may have more detailed environments, but Unreal just had much better visual design.

Also dont ever use HD textures. I dunno how they managed it, but it makes everything look uglier. HD textures and low-polu environments just dont mix I guess. Oh and it ruins detail texturing, so it ends up being less detailed up close (picrelated is how it works in Unreal gold by default)

HD textures makes every game uglier, which is why modern graphics are so fucking terrible, they try to squeeze in these fucking 5000GB megatexture bullshit into every square inch of the game.

But aside from all that shit -

Here's a question for y'all.

Would you rather have UT4 be the final Unreal game with a guarantee that the gameplay/characters/environments/music are all as great as 99 and 2004, with a long lasting community?

Or would you chance UT4's quality for the possibility of an Unreal 3 that's much like the original with some added features?

So I picked up Unreal again and so far I don't like how the people you're trying to save are either always in your line of fire when dealing with enemies or are standing next to explosive barrels. That beginning part with the guy that shoots those two plasma attacks at you in the dark was really a nice part to the game. The intro level was also handled nicely, even if you don't kill anyone.

It's hard to get back to UT since 2004 is basically superior in every way and a straight upgrade. You can even play with the old mechanics, just with the added bonus of everything not looking like a dark mess.
But then, 2004 servers are completely dead and the original has a bunch of players. Is it just because the MP has no real piracy protection?

Newnet is modification for servers that compensates for lag with a few additions. Instead of having delayed shots like with the Sniper or Pistol, the hit-scan is on point. Here's the link http://www.unrealadmin.org/forums/showthread.php?t=31425

Is it being /thatguy/ to have loved those giant-world, low-grav maps? Like the one where you're about roach-sized jumping around in a massive backyard or a bedroom or kitchen or whatever. Something about just floating around, a hundred shock cannon blasts going off around a map that conceivably resembled reality, just so comfy. I remember one bathroom level that had scans of Playboy magazines pasted on the floor near a toilet, and I would often jump over them and "sneakily" glance at them when playing with my brothers so no one would notice. Unreal and all the custom skins was my true intro to masturbation and pornography to be honest.

For what it's worth, we used to play it on DC a lot as teens. I'd always annihilate my friends when complaing on PC, even when they were "secretly" going 2vs1 on my me. On Dreamcast it evened things a little and made for more fair match.

The game was prone to lag but I really enjoyed the exclusive maps. I even pretty much "stole" the layout of one of them to make a Duke Nukem 3D deathmatch map.

Akimbo instagib is fun, but it tends to bug out and have you spawn without any weapons once you change maps.

Excessive Unreal 2 for crazy shit.

Excessive Unreal Tournament (different from excessive Unreal 2) for hilariously OP vanilla weapons.

Carry The Flag to prevent stalemates in CTF games and for a more exciting flag return process.

OldSkool Amp's for Unreal 1 weapons in UT99.

Arena Match so you can play with only weapon in a map with any weapon you choose.

Rockets UT for fun rocket launchers.

Who pushed me? so that people you push off the edge count as kills for you, not suicides for them. A little buggy, but very useful for DM and TDM.

Unreal 4 Ever for crazy weapons.

Singe-player campaign is pretty good, I actually enjoyed the story. The implication of other corporations dealing with Liandri was a nice touch to the ominous atmosphere around the game.

The game adds some new things to the gameplay such as characters having their own abilities, a melee system and finishing moves that are difficult to pull off. Also Raiden from MK is an unlockable character.

Play both of their single-player campaigns to familiarize yourself with the maps and the weapons. UT99 compared to Q3, the campaign is very lengthy.

You're not alone. I used to be obsessed with those maps, in particular the Bathroom and living room one in Dawns DMP. Preferably no mods and regular weapons but some of the servers were pretty cool having guns like the basically full auto bin slayer sniper. Assault, CTF Face, Deck 16, ZP Instagib at donut house/turbo, the list of enjoyments I've had from this game is almost endless. Favorite multiplayer game ever and CTF Coret Facility with ZP instagib mod is my all time favorite settings. Oddly enough even the demo for this game stayed busy for years and years.

Am I the only one who fucking loved VCTF maps in 2k4? Something about booby trapping vehicles and flags with the Grenade launcher or the Minelayer was always so satisfying. I think it might have been the fact that some players just never learn. They see an open flag, and gun for it never realizing that there are spider mines near by. That, or they run straight for a manta loaded with grenades.

Anonymous Sun Aug 21 18:36:02 2016 No.3443601

Unreal 1 before the Tournament was a great concept that was poorly executed.

When you've played a game like Doom (the weapons do nasty damage to your enemies and your enemies do nasty damage to you right back,) Unreal 1 is a huge let down.

I don't like "begging permission" to kill an enemy that is programmed to jump out of the way every time a rocket loads or locks on. That feels very mechanical and takes me out of the playing experience.

Doom was also thick with enemies on Ultra Violence and Nightmare. The weaponry you had was up to the task of taking on that many foes as long as you didn't waste ammo.

Unreal is lonely and sparse and your foes are almost tanks (probably to make up for the lack of them. The game engine must not have been up to the task.)

If a First Person Shooter ever has an engine that can handle a sniper rifle or machine gun ripping up the unarmored targets that get shot with it, it will be a hit.

Arena shooters are faster and simpler, with larger arrays of weapons that can all be carried at the same time. They tend to be very straightforward and the skill ceiling is based heavily on your aiming ability and reading opponents.

Modern shooters tend to have larger arrays of weapons and equipment, but only a few can be used at any given time. They tend to have far larger maps (often with dynamic elements) and somewhat higher lethality. The skill ceiling is based heavily on properly using the map elements and team-wide tactics.

Yeah, I did. Best 40 bucks I've ever spent. Must've put hundreds of hours back in the day. Does UT99 still have that in the GOTY steam edition?

Also, does anyone remember the name of a 2k4 VCTF map where you have 2 subway trains each over a pair of bridges, and in each side there are these platforms that rotate and move back and forth to both red and blue teams' base. Also, the flag is in front of a waterfall and high above them there is a redeemer. Also, you can also move behind the waterfalls via a tunnel.

I can add more details, but fuck me the name of the map escapes me, and as cheesy as it was, it was one of the most fun maps I've ever played.

They basically function with aimbot/wallhack enabled on Inhuman and above difficulty. Masterful is the hardest "legit" difficulty. Keep in mind that a real player is tougher, but can't cheat like the computer does.

pretty sure bots function with an aimbot on any difficulty, just with more or less rounding and delays to give the illusion of imprecision

as for wallhacks, bots don't use some kind of visual analysis so they don't need to "see" though walls. they will rather take your position straight from the game's data. and either ignore or not the fact that the path between you and them is blocked by a wall

Fine, it "knows" where you are but doesn't use that information unless you are within a direct line of sight and within a realistic viewing distance.

I don't see either. I just know where everything is, my eyes just choose to ignore it until it's in front of me.

I got the game in 2001 when I was 9... I'm so stupidly attached to it, it's pathetic. Just listening to the soundtrack makes me incredibly emotional. I spent so much fucking time playing with bots, and downloading all the maps, mods and mutators I could with my shitty 56kb modem. And when I found StuffSwapper, Unreal4Ever, ChaosUT? Made all the crazy combinations I could think of. I was really sad when NaliCity disappeared and never came back until a few months ago.

Playing online for the first time when I was like 13 was a shocker, I was awful at the game even after nolifing it for so long. Only got any decent at FPS games very recently.

it's funny, when I was a kid I mostly sought after maps that were good for Invasion, or had some kind of fun gimmick or just looked cool.

I have a late 90s PC with 2 slot-1 CPU slots that I use as a server. I think I'll give it 2 1GHz Pentium III, the Voodoo 3 3000 that's idling in a drawer and make it an Unreal Tournament & Quake III arena machine when I'll get a better server machine like those used Sunblade servers with multiple UltraSPARC III CPUs and 16GB of RAM.

Hey anons I need help finding a UT99 CTF map from my childhood. It was a symmetrical castle-style map that had two canals with moving boats to get to the other side of the map. I think the bases might have been cathedrals or something because i think i remember there being pews for cover.

I was being somewhat facetious (though I do actually like the way software render looks). But what do you mean by that? I didn't have a PC with an after-market accelerator until the year 2000 and played games just fine.

A friend installed his old one for me after he upgraded and the first game I played with it was Carmageddon 2. It looked sick.

But Unreal does have a particularly good software mode. So does Quake.

The point is that software rendering, at equivalent resolutions, is slower than using an accelerator.

When you say that you didn't use an aftermarket accelerator do you mean you used integrated graphics? Intel i810 did an ok job of Unreal at 640x480.

If you need kills, the bots usually converge near the bottom or middle of the giant room in the center of the map.

The Shock Rifle is godly in this map. It can blast enemies that are away from you with ease and its alt-fire mode is effective in close quarters (thoguh a Rocket Launcher or Flak Cannon are still better). The Minigun or Sniper Rifle also work.

Remember you can kill enemies at the bottom from the top. Mortaring the bottom with Flak Cannon grenades is always fun.

Half of the domination maps don't work too well with bots. Maps such as Gharden, Sesmar and Gearbolt have capture points that bots don't try to capture as often as they should and are too easy to camp, like in this screenshot.

I think Cinder is probably the domination map with the best botplay. Playing that map with 4 teams is a hell of an experience.

With Gharden, its because the middle and top points are too close together, making the bots converge around them and let the top point rot. Hell, I ususally run laps between middle and bottom because of how close they are to each other.

With Gearbolt, the top point is just too far away for most bots to care.

Sesmar, I'll give you that. Defending the side points is piss easy because bots will rarely go to them. Then again, Sesmar isn't too hot of a level. (I still like it)

Also, are you using the "enhanced Team AI" option? I've found it makes the bots play Domination better.

The default orders tend to be find most of the time in CTF. I usually set the bot that follows you by default as either offence or defense, depending on the role I'm taking.

It's weird. Everything aside from direct input and mouselook is off, but it still feels like there's acceleration going on and flicking with the mouse definitely has a lag to it. Using the Direct3d rendering, software almost feels better, regarding the aiming.

Weirdly, I'm having similar issues with UT2004; is it because I'm used to CS and quake/reflex having instant turning with absolutely no lag?

I did all the usual things.
Anyways, I think that it's running "as intended" and I'm just being picky. The aiming in counterstrike and Reflex feels 100% responsive and "right" to me, Unreal and UT2004 just seem to be a bit laggy.

Anyways, since gamespy is dead, how do you peeps play Unreal MP?

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 22:07:51 2016 No.3545612 >>3545154 >>3545556 Is that from the normal "find multiplayer games" in the menu? It still works for me and I can still see many servers online.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 22:11:47 2016 No.3545619 >>3545612 Yes, find multiplayer games. This is the Unreal Gold GoG version that I've installed today.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 22:19:41 2016 No.3545630 >>3545628 Update your game.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 22:31:36 2016 No.3545647 >>3545630 nice, mouse works like a treat with 227 installed. this helped with the masterserver issue: http://www.oldunreal.com/wiki/index.php?title=Masterserver_Guide now to wait for some people to get up so I can get pwnd thoroughly.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 22:34:59 2016 No.3545651 >>3545647 The latest version is 451.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 22:37:15 2016 No.3545657 >>3545651 I'm talking about Unreal, not UT. From what I've gathered, 227i for Unreal was released on [11.11.2012].

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 22:41:31 2016 No.3545664 >>3545657 I thought it was UT.

>>	Anonymous Fri Oct 7 13:54:32 2016 No.3546587 I'm glad we managed to get a UT thread to the post limit.

>>	Anonymous Fri Oct 7 15:51:46 2016 No.3546829 >>3546587 speaking of which, is there some kind of afps general somewhere? I know that dirty bomb and overmeme have theirs, but it's a bummer that quakers, xonotic, reflex, unreal players etc. don't have a place for discussion.

>>	Anonymous Fri Oct 7 19:03:56 2016 No.3547157 >>3545154 Use the updated openGL renderer for all unreal engine games.

>>	Anonymous Fri Oct 7 20:20:04 2016 No.3547294 >>3546829 The Doom thread is supposed to be for other classic FPS games, but 99% of it is Doombabies jerking each other off.
