Just a reminder, people. UT2k4 will be on the shelves TODAY.

Get this game, or get a T-shirt that says, "LAME" and wear it and your underwear and a pair of argyle socks and walk around town with your wrist held limply against your chest while trying to bite your ear.

It has a roughly 300 page strategy guide, the best physics engine on the common market and something like 100 maps.

It also has integral voice-chat that works well. Bonus.

The Electronics Boutiques on the East Coast will have it at 11am today, so you may also be able to get it. Now you know how to spend your lunch break!

L U D I C R O U S ! ! !

p.s. I'll be the guy constantly respawning.

Yea, I'll have to wear a T-Shirt saying "Lame" til Friday, cos Atari Europe are Nazis, and aren't letting shops in the UK or Europe sell it 'til then. However I've preordered it, so should get it Friday morning.

Apparently from EB US you can get UT2004 for the equivalent of like $10. There's a discount on it, plus the ut2003 rebate thing, and some other stuff.

5.5??? :jawdrop:

Okay, that's no problem, I got my 80 GB harddisc last week :D

But it's really B.I.G!

But it's UT2k3 + UT2k4 Files, so we can't do something. Here in Europe we just can buy the DVD version...

BTW: Stat guyde sux! Selfexperience 0wns! :bouncy:

But I got no money for it :tear:

You're right, experience owns any strategy guide.

However... When you're bored at work, or on your lunch break, the strat guide is pretty sweet.

No contest. BF wins.

Hey, BF:V is fine if you don't mind lack of realism and easy exploits.

Oh, and UT is realistic? You're right. shooting assorted lasers at opposing players (whom 1/2 of which are robots) is practically steping outside!
And the vechiles! --Pshh! I could go out into my driveway right now and grab my manta as it spawns! ;) [/sarcasm]

That hurts, bitches.

I'm thinking about getting it. I might go tonight, or maybe tomorrow. 5.5 Gigabytes better be worth it. I know it's got a lot of content but I got tired of the demo in less then a week. Will this be the same way?

I bought it. and it is worth it. there are TONS of maps. I still havent tried half of them. it never really gets old. even against bots its always fun, especially in assault and onslaught mode. some of the stuff was recycled from UT2003, but lots of new goods too.

It is worth it, I killed 10GB of Harddrive space between BFV and UT2004 (only because the mod files for BFV)

JetRaiden

mod files? already? where?

BFV comes with a map and mod editor.

same here.

xmp is better, although both are too blitzy and fast paced for my tastes. the only thing really great about 2004 is quite honestly... the manta. that's it. and I can run people over with that as much as I want with the demo. assault's ok I admit, but onslaught is the main draw and I think they blew it by making a node based capturing game (a combo of planetside and BF) wayyyyy too dumb and fast.
