Hey there, I'm sort of new to unreal scripting and before I attempt a pretty large project I would like to know if it is possible to combine unrealscript with a database. The goal is to have a bot learn from other players and store his 'learned patterns' in a database so that the next time he loads he has learned new ways to play.

Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
You can also use Pogamut platform (http://pogamut.cuni.cz). It is a middleware that enables to control the UT2004 bots through simple API that uses Sockets in UT2004. The advantage is that your code your bots in Java - no problem to add any database or etc. The disadvantage is that you don't have direct control of the bot, but you have to use the defined API.
I would say that the question is what do you want to do. If you want to create your own UT2004 mod with better AI, then Pogamut is not a good choice. But if you want to do some example AI based on UT2004 that uses database then yes, Pogamut can be used. There was already someone who used it to create a bot with database - more info here: http://aigamedev.com/open/articles/sqlite-bot/
