BU Poll! Epic's Next Unreal Game?

[GUPraeToriaN]

Oh shush you. They still haven't finished Gears either. Unreal 3 better be next.

being that UT3 is the main game i would say it's next on the list...though i see UT3 a more "heavy hitter" then GOW.after all...if it wasn't fot UT series games GOW would never exist. though if they did make another UT i want it to have ALL the features of UT2004 combined with UT3 such as a camera on the trans disc and the adrenaline..

yes they should concentrate on an unreal3 sp.
its for sure many unreal fans are awaiting this.
though how to know about the marketing strategies and calculations of a company?
in the case of an unreal3: the characters in unreal2 were looking beautyfull ...exept of the skaarj
i wish more "living atmosphere" like in movies..5th element,starwars..scenarios come to mind.wonderful landscapes.i would not mind to stop and explore arround.
dont need a huge arsenal of weapons.they just should be unique.
new alien races.also maybe surprises...like characters fom previous sequels?
imo no need of to much gametypes.dm,ctf,ons should be enough as addition.
plus Epic should start a "make something unreal" competition again.
and include the winning mod on the cd.
for ex.: if i would buy the next unreal i would like to have a nice different gametype/mod like unWheel on it.

Unreal 2

Because they haven't made it yet

i'd like unreal 3, of course. a real sequel to the original game. something that shuts out unreal 2 like they decided to shut out ut2003. unreal 2 wasn't a bad game imo but it surely was no unreal game. it's a bit of a shame it wasn't just called unreal - the awakening cause that would have kept the door open for a real unreal 2. and if they should decide to do unreal 3 i think they should also include a multiplayer part and maybe even bring back darkmatch
imo unreal's mp was very different from unreal tournament so this might be a really cool thing.

on the other hand - i wouldn't mind something completely new, either. i imagine it might actually be harder to continue an already established franchise and please the greatest part of the fans than to try something new.

UT4. Set at a tropical island in WW2 against zee germanz

 

[Apathy.]

I don't mind the big armored dudes, but seriously, give me back my ****ing Hitscan game.

Heh, I hated the hitscan dominance in UT2004.

 

[Fuzzle]

What I'd like to see would be an unreal based on the original one (be it prequel, sequel, whatever) while ignoring U2 alltogether. I'm an unreal fanboy but U2 bored me so much that I never even finished it. I think I've tried 3 times.
I loved the sense of being alone and isolated in an unfamiliar place in unreal 1, something which wasn't there at all in U2.

Though I'm more inclined to believe GoW 2 will be up before anything else, and am assuming they've been hard at work on it for a while already.

Whatever the case, it needs coop. I can't stress enough how much coop adds to a singleplayer game. One of the aspects I like most about it is that you can play with your friend regardless of skill levels.
I also approve of the current strategy where they have one game focused on singleplayer and one for multiplayer. Sure, GoW has decent multiplayer and UT3 has.. "a" singleplayer, but they didn't sacrifice any of the game's primary focus for them, and that's how it should be.

 

[Juguard]

None, really. Because they are just going to make it for consoles, and just stamp PC logo on it. They are just ruining the name Unreal.

 

[GTD-Carthage]

Unreal 3 MINUS the stupid crap like "FLaGs" or "respawners". I'd like an Unreal 3 that felt like Unreal 1 - back on Na Pali fighting the Skaarj. And because that's unlikely to happen, I didn't choose anything just to make sure any Unreal 3 won't become noobcrap like U2. I'd rather not play Unreal 3 if it'll be another sequel Epic turns into a letdown. U1 was just too good for that.

 

[ZerO*KooL]

I vote neither.

They should first develop and release a UT3 extension/bonus pack that also fixes all the issues that UT3 (PC) had before anything else!

Selling out (releasing incomplete game) on the PC/Modding fan base is still hurting that part of community imo. And it was this part of the community that made Epic what they are today! Least we forget!! :/

 

[Kantham]

Heh, I hated the hitscan dominance in UT2004.

Hey, so did I. At least it required more skills than just random projectile spam in cramped levels.

 

[Sirius]

Whatever they come out with if we get a PC version it will just be a crappy console port.

It's plain to see what direction Epic is heading. :tdown:

 

[Alhanalem]

I don't mind the big armored dudes, but seriously, give me back my ****ing Hitscan game where Rockets and Flaks were harder to handle and so were your enemies.

You're like, the first person I've ever seen say "bring back the hitscan dominance!"

 

[IceCreamYou]

Epic has already said there will be a UT4, and they've practically confirmed a GoW2.

There will be no U3. GoW is their singleplayer title now.

And Jazz is long dead.

 

[Wowbagger]

To be honest i dont associate Epic with high quality releases anymore
ATM i hope they dont make Unreal3.
They can ruin GoW2 instead, not that i didnt like GoW but its not as close to my heart as Unreal.

 

[Sir_Brizz]

I'd like to see Epic try out some new ideas in an Unreal 3. Make a good single player campaign. Follow the formula of other insanely popular games this generation by moving away from the Tournament game and adding things like unlockables, achievements, leveling, etc. I think an excellent Sci Fi series would fit that formula really well.

Part of UT3's biggest problem is that current generation tournament style games are just not in style right now. You can't be competitive enough at 12fps when there is an exclusive group of people who are getting 200fps. These types of gamers almost crave last generation technology because their several year old machine can run it well. There is nothing wrong with that, but that's how I see things going right now.

[Carth]

As awesome as Jazz Jackrabbit was, I voted for UT4. Hope it will come soon and be popular, like UT2004 after UT2003.

 

[Alhanalem]

4 is IV, not IIII. You could take the original logo and have the stripes come together at the bottom instead of stay parallel. lol

 

[Masakari]

First they need to fix Gears PC, then they need to complete UT3 for PC, then they can think about a new game.
