Since the feature set of patch 1.3 has been frozen, request features for the 4th PC patch in this thread. This thread is for technical issues only and not for requests for maps or other additional content. Personally I want a quick patch that patches a few critical issues instead of a big patch that takes months to make.

Dear Epic,
We have some wishes we would like to see in future versions of Unreal Tournament III.

Please do not post bugs, only requests/wishes!
If you have bugs, then post it in the UT3 bug list thread, please.

Thanks!
01. Add a reply function for incoming messages
When a message comes, you can only read it.
If you want to write back, you have to go to the friends menu and send a new message.
02. A server information of your friend's server
Currently, you can only "Follow" your friends, without to know on which server they are.
So you only can hope it is a nice server or map.
Detailed information (what kind of game mode, which map, if mutators are used and so on) would be fine.
03. Shuffle teams at end of the round
If there is winning team, the players are always together.
Some fair players change the team but often they stay in the same team.
The teams were shuffled in UT 2004.
04. Camera change for vehicles
There is only 1 view when you are in a vehicle.
Some players prefer other cameras like it was in UT 2004.
05. Add a button to get from an active player to a spectator
You can join the game as spectator and easily become an active player.
However, you can't get back to a spectator.
I also think it would be fair if a spectator can't spectate a flag carrier in CTF and V-CTF.
A player could simply switch to spectator and search the flag carrier (or just click the mouse button).
After this it is no more secret where the enemy flag carrier is and this would be unfair.
06. Easier 1st person view and crosshair while spectating
A spectator usually sees the players from the 3rd person view.
With the console command behindview you can see the player from behind.
An option would be the better way.
Why not adding a crosshair, too?
07. Copy and paste in console
Would be nice if we could copy a text from the console.
If you want to copy something what another player wrote.
08. More CTF- and V-CTF maps
There are currently many DM/TDM/Duel and Warfare maps.
1 or 2 more CTF and V-CTF maps won't be bad.
09. Option to turn off taunts
Some people really "spam" with their taunts.
So it would be good if there is an option to turn them off.
10. Possiblility to change the announcer type
There are some important announces like "Red Core is critical" and some other which aren't that important.
An option to adjust the announcer would be good.
11. Ability to access the server browser while connected
When you play on a server you can't access the server browser if you want to change the server.
You always have to disconnect and go to the browser.
12. Saving of Instant Action settings
The settings are always the same, even if you change them.
After leaving the game and starting it again, all settings are default.
13. Create specific teams in Instant Action
For example 1 player and 3 bots in team blue and 10 bots in team red.
Via console command or in menu.
14. Saving binding commands
You now can set some key bindings in console.
Example: setbind h "say hello" and it works.
However, if you leave the game and start it again, it does not work anymore.
15. Increase the Field of View (FoV)
More than 100 would be effective because many of us have a widescreen monitor.
16. Make it possible to throw away weapons
Sometimes you kill an enemy and pick up his weapon by mistake.
If the weapon only has 1 shot (for example Avril) and there is no ammo in the map, you got a problem.
I think it would be fair if you only can throw away enemy's weapons.
17. Option to disable the dynamic music
It could annoy some players if the map music is played a long time.
So it would be good to include an option in audio options.
18. Make Mantas and Vipers louder
They are way too quiet and players often get killed because they did not hear them and had no chance.
19. Show player names when aiming at enemies
Sometimes you see an enemy and don't know who he is (especially if the demo bug happened).
If you aim him around 1 sec, you should see his name.
20. Custom hud
It should be possible that we can customize our own hud.
Settings transparency of the mini map and so on.
21. A way to add a server to favourites while playing on it
When you follow a friend or you are just on an unknown server, maybe you like it and want to add it to your favourites.
An option for that would be good.
Looking in history and searching it is not the best way.
22. Add a votekick option
If there is an undisciplined player (flamer, glitcher, cheater) the players should have the chance to kick him.
(There is not always an admin online.)
23. Stay lying down after fall from hoverboard
Sometimes a player moves with his hoverboard and gets shot.
In some cases it would be better if the player stays lying down instead of getting up.
An example would be to press the key for feign death if he won't get up.
24. Automatically disable hoverboard tricks when grapple something
Quote:
Its really annoying trying to grapple but instead pulling a useless trick that makes you ragdoll. - Flylikeamouse
25. Add the player number in scoreboard
When you are on a server and watch the stats, you don't see the number of players.
That means you have to count it (if you want to check how uneven the teams are).
26. Auto team balance
It is possible to play for example 2 vs 7.
There should be a server option to activate auto team balancing.
(Maybe after a player dies, he could become swapped).
27. First person view on hoverboard
It should be possible, too.
Sometimes the player could see in 1st person view some things better than in 3rd person view.
28. Let users be able to play on a server while downloading a map from another one
It was possible in UT99, UT2003 and UT2004 that you play on server A while downloading a map from server B.
Better than just watching a screen with %.
29. Remove the vote timer if you are the only one on a server
Sometimes you are alone with bots on a server and wait for some real players.
If you are alone until the end of the map, then there is no need for a vote time because no one except you can vote.
