How come I suck so bad?!?!

[TokeyTheDragon]

Hello, UT3 is awesome and runs smooth as silk on my rig (C2D@2.14Ghz, 3GB ram, 640MB 8800GTS, XP 32bit), but I suck donkey balls at it. How long does it take to get good at this game? Is it worth the time, and does everybody always die every 25 seconds?

You will recognize me in-game, as I will be that splatter of blood on the wall!! See ya out there!!

[Woulfe]

Aw. Hopefully you'll get better
I don't know how good I'll do yet, since it crashes 5 seconds after loading >_<

I think it's easy to learn UT in general. UT3 should be even easier. There are always novice bots to train against. And I propose using the flak canon or the rocket launcher as your weapons of choice. Always keep moving (and jumping).

Yes. Everybody sucks really hard at UT/UT2004 for a while. Once you stop thinking of it as 'dying' and 'game over', it gets fun. Like a game of tic-tac-toe, you can't REALLY lose at UT. You just draw a new board and play again until you and your friends are too drunk to play anymore.

Here's a tip: When you're new, play against novice bots.
Here's another tip: I only play against people I know (usually at LAN parties).
And a third: You're worse at UT when you're drunk, but it is more fun.

+1 on that!

Lan for sure! It's what made me play ut99 over quakeII/III back in the day.

PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE

lol tamaria.... dont drink and UT!! I suck *** at it too, basicly just gonna take dedication, like 48hrs non stop playing dedication.... and then follow that by weeks and weeks of non stop play.... once you get used to the controls, how everything fires, the general tactics, you'll be fine!

You can disable mouse acceleration! that could be your prob!!^^

go to documents/my games/ unreal tournament 3 Demo/UTGame/config/UTInput.txt

search for

bViewAccelerationEnabled

and set it to

FALSE
