They reintroduced the sniper rifle, but the 'Lightning Gun' was still their favourite sniper weapon to place on maps.

To be honest, I think they were trying to stop snipers in Facing Worlds - but totally screwed the guns for everything else, too...

Half the fun on Facing Worlds was getting the tactics right to take down the snipers :)

Have the still got the Redeemer in the new games?

The Unreal3 Engine is supposed to run very well on lower and mid level systems according to Epic. Also, remember that this is still a DX9 engine.

Epics games have always ran well on my systems in the past, and I have faith in them. I plan to build a new system in December anyways, but I think most people without top-of-the-line systems will see great performance.

Yeah. Facing Worlds 3 is one very pretty looking map. :)

I might have to install UT2004 (i did buy it very cheap from play.com a few months ago, but never got round to actually playing it!) to have a look ;).

I just recently started playing UT2004 again, and it's a blast! Always have to play on 120% speed though, or it's just too slow. ;)

Or rather, according to Epic, "When it's done".

At least when Epic says "When it's done" it actually does eventually get done, unlike a certain other company ;).

*cough*3D Realms!*cough*

:D

At least its better than EA's policy of releasing games, if theyre done or not!

Sadly this is true. I'd rather have no game than buy a beta.

the game may be renamed to Unreal Tournament III
