It's to the point where I get angry every time i play warfare. break time.

20fps in loaded servers, frequent lockups (we're talking reset button), poorly designed vehicles, crappy noob-friendly bottlenecking spam maps... I've tried my best to have an optimistic attitude toward this game, even posting about the good qualities it has... truth is though, overall the game (namely warfare) seems rushed, buggy, imbalanced... just cheap! I still felt annoyed even when i won matches tonight... ??

I've had to spend hours tweaking every possible setting in the INI files just so my computer that is less than a year old can play it with the lowest settings possible (uglier than 2k4) at 2

Unless there is some miracle patch that makes this game likeable, or some seriously aweseome maps come out, I'm probably going to keep this game in garage in my yardsale box.

Sorry to be a grouch about it, but this game wasn't ready for retail sale and it almost seems like a crime to release something so bad and call it "unreal". Then again, the only unreal i ever played was 2k4 and didn't care a lot for the others.. maybe i never belonged

I've had one disconnect (server-side) and about 10 lockups, but I went the new Nvidia drivers with a modded INF for my laptop and that fixed the lockups entirely.

Sounds like yours is connection tho!

Might be a good idea to have a links thread for new info that comes out, downloads for maps, stuff like that.

 

For those of you like me who DIDNT buy the special edition of UT3, we can watch some tutorial vids for map making here:

There ya go wentz!

 

Primeval (Beta)

Thanks for this post, excellent videos. Map in progress...

I play for at least a couple rounds every night

Looks cool I'm gonna make one too.. I used to make quake maps but the editors weren't nearly as cool as the ut3 editor

lets play the map

Perhaps b/c i patched the game before I removed the disk? I'm going to submit this story to dateline and see if they are interested in investigating it further so i can clear my name and once again be respected as a loyal software consumer.

give him your work and play CSS, tell him he's faster than you and giving him your work would make the company more profitable

I believe these are questions that can be answered in the practice server over the weekend

Primus, where is shadow.

Oh man just when you thought all the noob trackballers had gone and switched to mahjong!

WB Chip thought you got eaten by an owl

nah I had just never played the game without the CD in the drive took it out last night to install something

had to change this post since flitter fixed his.. ignore

UT3 asked me for my CD key today?

kewl haven't seen these b4

if only I could stop locking up midgame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then it would be over 90% fun

lol @ flitter

It gets better, wait until you find out your girlfriend is pregnant.

Done and done. Bush, I blame you for the wait! I also blame you for my back being sore, my guitar battery dying and the fact that I only have one light in my room. Thanks a lot, Bush.

 

Bushwack? More like Bushruinsmylife.

lololol

we aren't talking about competing yet, just forming.. this IS to learn the maps and weapons

I agree that there are still issues.. but i think it's just a matter of getting used to it. We're starting up a team and I'm sure the majority of the early practices are going to be sharing information with each other, much like we did with 2k4. Keep in mind... All of us have learned from each other in the past which got us to the level we were at in 2k4. We haven't had a single meeting in UT3 yet . Furthermore, ANY new game, regardless of being a continuation of a "series" is going to feel entirely different. New engine, new textures, new models, new weapons, new everything! I mean just because you hold a weapon called a flak cannon doesn't mean you know how to use it.. because regardless of the "name" of the weapon, you've never used it before ut3 came out .......

As for the console thing.. I disagree there. PC play is fast paced and keyboard / mouse support for the ps3 is to offset the crappiness of a console controller in a PC game otherwise why support it?

Come practice with us, help your bros and learn from them as well.. and remember fun first competition second

Learn to have fun losing before you learn to win, and you can't lose. Wentzquote of the day.

blame bushwack for the wait

Who's up for forming a team and practicing say once a week and forming some strats? We could spend the first few practices sharing tips/tricks and learning the vehicles a little better.

PS: Can we get a private forum for this?

got it thx
