oh..nearly forgot...the PERSPECTIVE is good...2003 failed for me cos the levels were not that big, but they LOOKED big..as players ran away, they shrunk too fast.....to give it a sense of scale..and it failed...
on this one...when someone smipes at you from a long way away, they ARE a long way away.....blumin miles away.

the electric gun IS a long range sniper rifle...
hence the sniper scope on it...
Exactly, and if you know the dodge and wall dodge moves you can avoid snipers most of the time anyway.
PHP Code:$s = new signature();
$s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
AND you can see where the shot come from.
The LG is easy to avoid. Use your shield to absorb the shot, before giving them one back !
or get in a tank and blast the ****er
actually prefer sending them a redeemer.....
Another thing- how slow is the redeemer now
Dodge? You mean double tap sideways?
Anyone explain the Link Gun to me? Iused it to keep our power base thingy charged whiel it was being pounded by the bad guys.....right click on mouse and aim at thebase....but can you link up 3 guys and shoot from one? Mega power kinda thing?
makes it less of an infinitely powerful weapon. rocket-type weapons like the redemmer & avril can be shot out of the air if people try. fire a redeemer at an enemy node, they can either turn & shoot, or loose the node - but in the meanwhile, your team can send them to hell while they aim at your redeemer, and they die & lose the node anyway
there's a whole lot of strategy in 2004
Yup - right click and aim at yer man whilst he's charging the link. You can also use it repair vehicles
only the guy at the end of a link uses any real amounts of ammo - so if you have a chain 4 long, things get built VERY fast, but only one guy is using up his ammo. if you break the chain, or have a forked chain, then everyone who is at _AN_ end of the link uses lots of ammo.
3 or 4 person links = teh win
what a depth of play
Hats gottacome off to them for this game.....and it IS a game..it felt like fun, even when getting whooped.
The interior structures are divine...and the idea of hitting M or N to get a "phantom coloured cloud" to lead you home to base is perfection.
Its gonna be SO BIG, and it deserves all the success
that was the key to UT - the fun came in playing, not neccessarily winning.
I think i better remind a few people of this:
Hmm, just downloaded it.. installed.. runs ok on my aged system in 1280x960.
But.. it just didn't do anything for me.
OK, they added vehicles in, but the gameplay remained the same for me. Within 15 mins I'd seen enough and dumped it. Won't be buying this one - made that mistake with UT2k3...
