Oh, I like this one. Thanks for sharing!

Very interesting read and some details that I was unaware. Unreal really did shine back then.
Thanks for posting those scans.

But yeah, I've asked a few people about this (Some relatives played Unreal when I was little ) and none of them beta tested it

Thanks for posting this Leo, but I've the feeling someone has done this before (a couple of years ago).

Unreal Review

Found those from my archive. Unfortunately I don't remeber the original source of those scans. Could be they were posted here a while ago.

That's PC gamer review and that is rather terrible scan...if I had scanner i would scan even the czech magazine reviews, they included some beta shots as well and were interesting too. I have them still.

Quality really isn't the best. Could be they're scanned somewhere in same timeframe the magazine became available

Yeah, well I am reading that review, it is rather inacurrate at times, it mentions flak cannon but has stinger instead and say that "kraal" can pull out a shielf or something like that, oh joy.

But anyway that czech magazine I mentioned, it was called score and it has few pics that i have never seen anywhere else, including a pic of beta queenend which had skaarjlords as guards in it.

Holy ****, Dispersion Pistol against a Warlord.

Anyway thank you guys for these. Those times were the best.

"Some monsters do 'ave 'em"

Hehe...

 

[Creavion]

Interesting, the Flak Cannon looks like the Stinger.

 

[UBerserker]

Minigun "extremely useful". Maybe true if he's referring to MP!

It is the beta dispersionpistol (look at the impact effect, no that is not a flare from his rocket lol) and it is not impossible to kill warlord with it anyway.

 

[UBerserker]

Just hard, but in Demonlord's Lair you'd want to resort to hitscan guns or the stalactite. Dodging missiles in there is a pain in the ass. Even more if the Warlord is the assholish beta one.

Not taking in consideration the old Amplifier obviously.

Where's a decent xloc when you need one?

In beta was one, although its script needed fixing to work, also you needed to find first the transloc module and source and in the game itself there was only module, in the aztec map...

 

[UBerserker]

Beta Xloc had awesome 1st person animations.

If they are the same as in the 227 remake, then no, that's terrible
