It comes down to this:

At around 4 pm U.S. EST I counted 804 players playing UT99 online for all game types. Has UT3 ever, ever had that many people playing it at once online? I don't think so.
Sure. In Europe :)

What's so funny about that, dude? As much as I love UT and any other Unreal game, I must admit I (still) enjoy Quake3 (a lot) more than UT.

I don't think that's this thread's issue, but you carry on laughing your ass off if that pleases you so much.

Yeah but the total amount of active players is still disappointingly low, I'm sure.
Yes, but then you don't have "critical mass". For the sake of example, let's say there are 400 players x 3 platforms. That's not enough and then lots of guys and gals don't pick UT3 because "nobody is playing". With 1200 on the same platform or with cross-platform gaming that wouldn't happen and there would be 1500 or 2000.

Can't we all get along without the whole "Unreal game XY is the best" -thing?

It really doesn't achieve anything.

I think UT3 is pretty close to UT as far as gameplay goes. It doesn't have the same techno futuristic sports vibe but other than that it's as close as it can be without being a remake.

Hmm, I wanna add my lulz post too!

Also nobody's played the new (Free to play) Nexuiz? It KILLS Quake III (PC and DC versions).

Yes a ton of people have played it but they go back to Q3 because it's a much more solid feeling game.

People who go "xxx>xxx" are usually bad at the games anyway so :]
