I'd like to understand what could "substitute" UT?

There are tonnes of alternative fast-paced arena based FPS games...

Let's name them, then. We already mentioned Quake.

 

[Vitamin-Carrot]

Half Life 1 can be fairly fast if its twitch your looking for

Pace yourself! Not so many at once.

Whatever else you'll go play, you'll end up craving for a shock combo.

Also, what Lostsoul said. :tup:

Cube, Nexuiz, and OpenArena come to mind. Others here, and those are just the free ones.

i find that Ms. Pac-man requires many of the same skills that UT does, such as quick decision-making, crafty map-running, and thoughtful evading/attacking of the enemies. Also, pill-chomping.

Euchre.

 

[Lethargy]

srsly guys, audiosurf

 

[recoiledsnake]

Solitaire. Minesweeper is a close second.

One word: Huxley.

I love Warsow, but the last time I saw anyone in a server for it was over a year and a half ago...

Then get together with Nereid, Zer0, and I and play it, we've been doing it for a while ;0

 

[Vitamin-Carrot]

DUNE 2!!!

 

[MonsOlympus]

Well I would like to think there is no substitue but if I ever stopped playing UT the withdrawls would be too much to handle

 

[Unknown Target]

Cube, Nexuiz, and OpenArena come to mind. Others here, and those are just the free ones.

I find it interesting that all of those and Warsow are basically just based off of Quake's gameplay.

If I recall, Warsow actually has the exact same damage values and spawn timings as Q3 promode does...

Not to mention that, having played both (aswell as painkiller, ut2kx, ut3) Q3 promode is by far the most fun imo.

I find it interesting that all of those and Warsow are basically just based off of Quake's gameplay.

Maybe because that's the genre we are discussing

 

[Vitamin-Carrot]

I cant remember but arent they built of that engine anyways?

 

[Vigil]

Some of them are. The link lists their engines ;-)

 

[Sir_Brizz]

Unfortunately, I just don't find any of the alternatives fun. I've tried Warsow, while it is "fast" I still end up finding it boring and ugly. Graphics aren't a huge deal, but we don't like in 1999 anymore.
