Still playing UT2k4?

[BeastmodeBenji]

I'm looking to get my fill of twitch shooters and I'm trying to decide which to play (UT3 / 2k4). I'm obviously wanting to play the more active of the two. Anyone have any insight?

Last time I checked, UT2004 was more actively played. But then you can play both

And if not for multiplayer, get it for singleplayer! Because for UT2004 there are tons and tons of custom content: total conversion mods, lots of extra weapons, skins in abundance, lots of maps, custom gametypes - in short, it's a game that potentially never gets boring!

Thanks for the replies! I actually just picked it up off Steam for $7.49 so I'm happy. Installing atm! :] I can't remember, but is there a working friends list in-game?

you need to check out some of these mods

http://www.moddb.com/games/unreal-tournament-2004/mods

and then after that, open the unreal editor and start mapping

Yup, there is. It's in Multiplayer, there you have a friend tab and can add their ingame nicknames.

I spent more time in UT2004 (but less of someone) than UT3.
there are always a friend, or a mate, or people which i know, which are playing ut2004.
For UT 3, it's not the same story.
The multiplayer is the only issu of this game.

I stopped playing it actively, but as it's an amazing game. I play it every now and then (mostly offline) due to modding/mapping.

I love to play online, though it's hard on a 3G connection.

Thanks for all the replies everyone! Is there an active dueling community for 2k4? :]

UT2004 is the best choice, and quite possibly the best game ever made IMHO!

Oh jeez...Been a while I since touched this game (maybe close to a year ever since) since some modding activity slowed down, interest in other games, and/or due to RL. Maybe I have not visited this part of the forums(and RuneStorm's page) very often, but after installing UT2004 (after playing UT a lot again), I sort of went back to playing it. It is nice that this place remains alive. O.o

UT2k4 ftw.

Such a good game, miss it.

I've just noticed a nice UK based DM server recently. It seems to be set up really nicely:

UK's House of Fraggin' - ut2004://173.199.74.191:7777

10 slot,
UTComp,
Good map rotation,
50 frag limit.

It just needs some more regulars. Be sure to join and add to your favourites.
