Well the engine hasn't changed - but PC specs have - you gotta push the envelope to the absolute maximum nowadays - even at the expense of gameplay in some instances - otherwise you will be stuck in a loop and never move forward - everyone will be too scared to go those extra polys in the name of gameplay and that is absolute bullsh*t

Stretching the engine a little is fine. But you can't give a 450 poly count the OK. If you want to make nicer maps then wait for the next engine. Maps have of course moved forward, mostly due to an increase in photo-realistic texture quality, better mappers, and an increase in poly counts but many ppl take the poly count too far IMO. I think 300 pushes the engine too far.

Why not just **** UT and start making **** in Max now? Then when U2 comes out you is all set?

Pushing then engine is fine, but it doesn't make the level very playable, and it will never be successful online.
