It has ragdoll effects, yes.
There are several airborne vehicals - controling is easy
32 players is the max. I think the engine in its current state can support upto 64 though.

[Pete]

cool thanks buddy
can not wait to play 2004 then everyone i know seemed to think 2003 was terrible i thought it was amazing so is 2004 jsut 2003 with new weapons and vehicles + new game modes
why do u think they didnt include assualt in 2003 that was one of the best game modes

Are you sure its the 2DVD version ?

Thats the SE (special edition). I can almost say with certaintly it wont be 18 quid.

[Rave]

It says that the headset isn't included, so I guess there's going to be 2 DVD editions, one SE and the other not?

Rich :¬)

[CrapshoT]

you dont get the headset or any of the se stuff

Looks like it, although ATARI have only announced one at the moment

[dpm]

Is the SE set even going to be released in Britain?

No one really knows

ATARI wont make a statement about it, and a lot of people are getting pissed at them over at the official forums.

[dpm]

dammit. thats the impression i got, but i was hoping i was wrong.

Hope they announce soon, or the pre-release offers will start to look too tempting

LOL I always wait a day or two when grabbing demo's - all the hypes gone and the bandwidth can easy max my lovely 260 K/s downloads

Hmmm supposed I have valve to thank for that - trying to get HL and CS updates for CS when it was pre-steam was a nightmare ...

anyways, this game looks f**kin' awesome and I've just reserved myself a copy at my local Game store

Just been playing the demo, glad to see the return of Assault, and the Onslaught mode is fantastic, especially slicing people in a Mantra! Much better than UT2003, which was, in my opinion, just unreal tournament with pretty graphics. Which wouldn't run on my (old) PC.
