New UT2k4 patch - still allowing old clients?

  • 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.

Unreal Tournament 2004 Patch 5 Release notes.

This patch is completely compatible with the retail version - servers and clients of any flavor can connect with each other.

So, I guess I don't understand why Epic is still allowing original unpatched clients to connect to patched servers? Some of the exploits are totally client-based and will not be prevented simply by running against a patched server.
