Um.. ok.

Flak shell's got pretty crap splash damage these days, compared to UT99 anyway. If you want the effect of a close up flak kill slightly farther away, then do a ballistic shot with the flak #2 and hurt 'em bad.

Also usable to smack about their feet, put them in the air, or generally just spam.

Well, the splash damage the primary fire did in UT... people complained about it right?
So, they had to eh tone it down, right?

The UT flak is a meanie :B

Well i dont know if anyone has mentioned this, so sorry if they have.

If you have g4tv (we finally got it in mississippi of all places :lol: :D ) then you might've seen a segment they did on the Unreal games. The people they interviewed from epic mentioned that they felt, overall, that UT2k3/4 were both failures, and that their next generation of the game was going to aim more towards what the game was like when it was first released.

Overall, i think the game looks spectacular, and i personally, cant wait. I really wanna run into someone in my scorpion and blow it up in their face.

Sits fine with me. I still fire up UT every so often - did it last night and just might do it again tonight.

UT99 is playing football in your back yard where everybody can play and the only rule is no kicking in the gonads.
Let me guess: You never played UT'99 on clan level, right? It was as you described in 99 and maybe 2000, but later you had to read through 3 pages of official and unofficial rules before a match. :mad:

True, but most of that legalese was converted to UT200x 1:1 :)
