Epic Announces "Major" UT3 Expansion

  • 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.

I doubt it will be a purchasable expansion.

i dont think it will be free content though.


They will probably release it like UT2004. Hopefully there's a mail in rebate for UT3 owners, but I wont be cheap enough to bitch about it.

But then it wouldn't be an expansion, would it. It'd be a sequel.

Also please keep the Ripper well away from my UT3. If you want to use the ripper play UT or use the mod one. Yes, I no fan of the Ripper.
Also, I'm not too fussed seeing the Scaarj again. There are a ton of other things more important than adding an obsolete weapon and old character model.

eff yeah! bring it!

if they manage to:
-get rid of the most bugs
-GUI
-linux server
-demostuff

i think that would push it alot in the european tdm scene.

I'm going to wait and see what "In fact, we're working together on a major expansion to Unreal Tournament 3" actually turns out to be before I even consider getting excited.

It's also going to have to be something pretty special for me re-install let alone part with any more money on UT3.

I think there's poor communication then.
They have a track record doing it that way and its worked well for them.

Unreal>Ut
UT03>UT04

I don't think an expansion will create that many new players, a purchasable one or otherwise.

We will see, but my money is on similar similar to UT04

I agree with Mozi/Autopsy on the return of the Ripper. I miss it, one of the most unique and entertaining weapons of Unreal.

About the characters... honestly it's just a waste of time doing new ones (same thing about bringing the oldies), aside Malcolm since he's probably already in the works now.

Guess Malcolm was already done since somewhere 2005 if you've seen tech demos. They'll just have to release his model.

How about some decent maps like we see released in the community, a few good characters (rather than just lots of huge armour on everything)

Few new theme packs would be nice.

Get rid of the god damn horrible UI.

I hope they do a good job with this, but we shall see.
