Unreal Tournament 3 Expansion

[roliver306]

With the new Titan Pack less than 2 weeks away, I would like to get some support for Epic to continue the single player story mode in an upcoming expansion. While the story was pretty much "cookie-cutter", I did enjoy runnign through all the chapters. Plus, the ending was a semi "cliffhanger" that lead you to believe there would be more.

Anyway, does anybody else agree?

no need story,just need fight with Human。

[cdiddy]

the story is worthless. it is just a bunch of instant action matches. i would prefer the old style of o tournament

[Gunwing]

How about add the older style with a story mode extension as well? That way we all get something out of it.

I'd love an old style tournament mode, and extension to the story would be all but pointless. It wouldn't attract new people or bring old people back. It'd only serve to please a small minority of the players who actually played the story mode and want more. It's time that could be better spent giving up a few new maps/models.

Which is a bunch of instant action matches.

The return of the tournament is a must imo.
They can add the story if they want, but giving priority to the tournament. I think they should try the formula that most succesful racing games have. Think about games like nfs underground, toca race driver 3, grid or even a not so racing game like gta 2.
That tipical guy with no money, no fame, no glory but a lot of wants to be the best. Add a retired tournament veteran wishing to revive his golden days and a hotty sponsor with some money that want to take you to the peak, and you have your cliche-that-never-get-old story.
You will start from the bottom and will need to earn money to buy teammates and stuff. As you progress, your command center will become from a moldy dog house to a cool headquarter. The more you earn fame, the more the audience and your opponents will respect you, so you'll receive more proposals and challenges. Of course, your headquarter will be equipped with a trophy room. You'll be able to enter at any time to check your achievements and feel proud.
This formula gives a lot of motivation to the player from the beginning and it success has been proven by tons of games.
Would be cool having something like this in a UT game

I've never really thought about a tournament mode with all those features implemented from the post above. That actually sounds really good and, having played the NFS games, it seems logical because those actually keep you engaged without having to smear too much story in your face.

OK, UT3's storyline is fine as it is

[Xandros]

Seems kind of logical if you ask me; with the war over Malcom goes back into the tournaments to keep his claim to fame going, while Reaper after somehow miraculously surviving the outcome of UT3 joins the Tournaments too in a bid to win and take Malcom's glory and also blow the living snot out of him (two birds with one rocket).

Dude, that's kinda ungrateful considering the amount of content and replay value Epic is adding to the game.

Set up a series of matches and add your own narration and then you have your expansion. Enjoy.

Cant wait to play this map, lol doom3 got me liking darkmaps.

Dark Match (Deathmatch)
In preparation for the assault on Oxida Nova, Izanagi bombers targeted supply lines and other sites of important infrastructure. This power station was one of the first to be hit, and is now left to defend itself while running only on auxiliary reserves. Attack forces have moved in, and the facility's lights haven't even been restored. This level provides a unique twist on deathmatch in a darkened laboratory lit intermittently by a particle accelerator and emergency lights, and by muzzle flashes and explosions

[8800gtrox]

They all sound great the maps, descriptions of them on www.planetunreal.com

there's Ocean Relic (Deathmatch)

reminds me of oceanic from unreal tournament 2003, that was pretty cool small map, im sure new one will deliver also.

my favorite ocean/lab based map though has to be aquamortis from unreal championship 1# this maps not on ut2k3 or ut2k4, that map kicked ass though.

Yeah it's better, I had a laugh that he managed to come up with such a cheesy storyline

[rhiridflaidd]

That formula sounds perfect......

....but without the vetran and mega sponsorship......because every online player can't get a vetran and a mega sponsor......

.....or hold up, perhaps vetran players could be rewarded for taking newbies under your wing......

....Because, to me, online is the way it has to go.

Offline is all welll and good, but the real thought is about how you bring in a string of disparate matches, and build it into something that's a lot bigger and online.....

THe most, most important thing though is to realise that it has to be about self improvement. One player should nopt be able to twist the outcome of a full 32 player battle, but should have his own goals within that battle that he is tasked to achieve.

Another vote for the traditional tournament mode. How could they take the "Tournament" out of "Unreal Tournament"?

[Eew]

Story mode works in GeOW, not in UT3. Epic shouldn't waste energy on it, I only want online multiplayer.
