Zounds:
I really enjoy them cause it demonstrates that UT is not the fragging-only place ala "score or you are not good enough for this community". No, it says that you can also have fun with it, and I have to laugh everytime someone is bored enough to say "you *****" (this female voice prerecorded stuff) because he obviously likes that term or whatever ^^
I find it simply fascinating how many facets of weirdness are out there. For example: One guy loads a bunch of spidermines on the hud of his scorpion and afterwards drives like a crazyass into people. I mean, wtf
, this is the stuff I really care about; people who are bored enough to do things you never saw before!
Pros:
As a matter of fact I can't be one of them, cause I am limited to my natural given fraction-of-a-second-reactiontime. I see ppl killing me in instagib in the moment they dodge around the corner and I have really no explanation of how they do that. Its not a moment where I feel "love", its just a moment where I say to myself "this is ******* awesome".

I never found a quite good help for this game. The booklet was 35 pages long and left me with thousands of unanswered questions. But the fact is, that the people here (I don't want to make a list here, but everybody knows them) who are really willing to share their mostly self-trained knowledge with a.e. me, a guy how wants to know more about viewing demos, are one key to this game. The every week returning "Weekend Desktop Thread" for example, you can't beat him to death, but this is a part of this community, sharing knowledge and experience. And I tell you, I found some good looking women in there :up:
UT itself:
I can only speak for myself but when I hear "Headshot" or "multi kill" it is something you definitly want to hear again, cause it is
Such teasers or acoustical awards have a better not underestimated impact on me.
The manner how UT (as a MP-game) is designed in its usability is outstanding. Nearly everything is there, where you need it. You can nearly config everything you want to work so.
"Config the key "p" to change to shield gun, altfire to bottom so acting as a bumper in a jump, after releasing the key you change back to previous weapon".
I mean, is that a configuration of a key, or what ?
The things what you hear and see in-game are exactly what I want to hear and see, in a MP-game. Constantly informing me of the status. It could be better, but there has to be something left for improving the next version ^^
So for short:
- crazyness
- absolute magnificent moves (sadly only by others :noob: )
- a community who is willing getting involved into solving problems of others
- and fabulous nearly flawless design of the game
is for me the key in really loving this game!

I can only speak for Halo, cause I played that long enough before I discoverd 2k4 and in Halo is sharing hatred and jealousy obviously on the daily list of todos. Halo's design as a slow-paced shooter places it more into having chats than fighting against eachother. So the event is more chatting than playing with sideeffects you can imagine.
Puh, I guess I wouldn't read my own msg cause its so long, but that was all to say
