lol at all the people who think they know what they are talking about, and lol even more at the people who were offended by war tourist telling them they dont.
Please, please, call me WarTourist .
I can only speak about my own opinion, and I don't think so. It's #1 purpose was to run the tech through it's paces before mastering, which it did magnificently (aka there were big problems). Without it, the retail version would have shared many of the demo's issues.
All games have bugs of many shapes and sizes when they ship. There is no such thing as a bugless game, and there never will be. In my opionion, if the bugs don't bother you, then the game "was ready", if they do it "wasn't ready".
That sounds like a repeating problem with this game.Performancewise, the main problem is the algorithm they used to determine settings to apply to the game. It wasn't polished enough
But he's not. The only reason why they're probably doing the XPANSION is for sales of the original game, not to please the complainers on forums. The only reason why they did GoW 2 is because it was such a good seller. Profit is the onl motivation I can see for an industry like Gaming. Sad but true.Im really hope youre wrong Brizz.
Calling half the community clueless will certainly help you in your little discussion here.
If Epic doesnt listen to all the complaints about UT3 and make sure they dont repeat them for UT4whateverish, it WILL fail again.

Well, i think the demo caused alot of negative "word of mouth" but whats even worse is that almost all the bugs from the demo was still in retail and the first patch didnt come until, a Month later?
Of course they listened.
I just wish we heard more things such as this from the dev. team. Give the community something new (good) to talk about, you know?
Neverminding the other BS
I just find it silly that you'd like to not have UT3 and give your money to someone who made a mod for UT3. Doesn't make a lot of sense now, does it?
If you love the game as much as you claim and want to be in touch with the better people in the community, why is it that you've never shown interest in joining us for FragBU?
Well if they can take the plaudits they should be able to accept the brickbats, I honestly think if they'd communicated more on development stages allowing real community input for as little as half an hour a week the game wouldn't have emerged with the issues it did( my ,no **** Sherlock! insight there- hehe)
They have to be one of the quietest, timid groups ever to enter game development. Either that or everyone there is scared of being overuled by smug superiors? Too many chiefs, & not enough Indians at Epic Wartourist?
Speculation is fun!
Join us tonight, it's a new year and a new beginning for FragBU. Let's make it a good one.I should!
What other kind of expectations would fit quite as well?unrealistic expectations
love this thread
all this time WarTourist you banned pll that say a bad word about ut3
still dont get what the point of that was
still play this game it great game lets hope that the exspion will make the game better
Again, in my opinion this boils down to how hostile a handful of folks on these forums have made them. I personally CAN'T get insulted by complete strangers, but not everyone is like that.
Who knows how the future will play out and I'll most definitely refrain from prognosticating about the what's in store for UT, but as long as BUF has the rep it does, what motivation do devs have to post? They get the critical information from insult-less sources, and as evidenced by the flames I've endured this week, dev interaction that doesn't conform to some unrealistic expectations about game/retail experiences results in disparagement.
In no way did the handful of hostile posters on BUF hurt (or help) the game, but if interacting with the developers was their goal, insulting them and their work every chance they get is a funny way to go about it . (not necessarily talking about you wunder)
I already knew your position. Whether that was what you intended to sound like or not is a moot point, UT3 costs money, it's not free. And someone that did something that accounts for a small percentage of the work done on UT3 should somehow get all of the money for the game? I guess I really just don't understand the logic behind your argument at all.Where are you deriving this from? You're not only way off base, you're not even remotely in the ballpark. You are not making sense at all & totally ripping out of context what I said. I'll spell it out for you.
I never said anything about "liking to not have UT3". Where the hell are you getting that from? I said "the $100.00 that I spent for 2 copies of UT3 should be taken away from Epic and given to Sinx". That is not even remotely suggesting anything about "liking to not have UT3". It means exactly what it says -- that I feel that the money I spent for UT3 deserves to go to Sinx, because, for me, he did breath some life into the game.
If I didn't want UT3, the following would have occurred:
1) I wouldn't have bought it in the first place.
2) I would've given it away or thrown it out shortly after getting it due to finding the quality of it not as good as advertised. I kept it however as the potential was there and have waited for over a year with the hope of it being fulfilled -- same as you & anyone else still playing UT3.
3) I certainly wouldn't have bought it as gift for a friend off of Steam less than a week ago.
Does that clarify things for you? If not, then don't bother posting a response. In fact, don't bother posting a response anyway, because mostly all I've seen
is you rip things way out of context, and I'm not likely to see what response that you post anyway.
