Unreal Tournament 2004 Changelog Partial List

[Juguard]

It's a start.

I hope in a future patch they remove the need to have the gameplay CD in the drive.

I can garantee they will. They always have removed it, after a few patches.

The fix list looks good, they always make good patches.

 

[Juguard]

oh, so when is the scheduled release date?

 

[Agent_5]

probably two weeks.

It was delivered by the mod & server mailing lists.

The BU folks are just lazy.

I am not on the mod and server mailing list, but you can be sure I will be. Something like this is of general interest (witness) and doesn't belong on just a server/mod list.

I was just kidding in that comment btw in case u misinterpreted the smiley

Please tell me they will fix the UT2004 "teleporting" bug. This happens to me in Onslaught when I'm on foot walking forward and over time to time I seem to instantly teleport a few steps further (the screen is jumpy). This is really annoying when I wish to walk up to a ledge and stop there just to get teleported over it and fall into lava.

It sux so FIX IT NOW!
It sux so FIX IT NOW!
It sux so FIX IT NOW!
It sux so FIX IT NOW!

The wall dodge trick was just nice, i think.
But i'm sure someone will make a mutator to allow it
Nice to hear that the DIVx bug and mem leak are corrected

Ever thought your PC is just not capable of Onslaught 1337 Newbie? The amount of system resources that onslaught chews up is massive compared to the usual DM or CTF. You say your screen is Jumpy, this insinuates that your PC can't cope with it very well. Default detail setting on lower power PC's tend to be incorrect so just by turning down the details you might get enough free resources to run the ONS levels smoother

I'm waiting for that no CD thing.

BTW, Any plans of a bonus pack? UT2K4 really needs some new official characters and some, uh, special series of maps like the 1-on-1 series. Also, there should be a sorter, which lets you choose wether the maplist should be sorted as 1-on-1, normal,4player. 3 player, futuristic, medieval etc. etc.

 

[1337 Newbie]

Then why does it happen only on certain servers and not on others with the same map?

Damn, they didnt include the only ones I wanted:

Display picture of next map while loading.
Display progress bar while loading.
Display a cancel button while loading.

OR

Load faster.

(ps yes I know about turning off preload player skins)

 

[Bazzi]

OR

Get a faster PC

no-cd?

if you want no-cd, then get linux and install the linux-version (it is on the DVD, too)

with linux you dont need the cd/dvd anymore

Actually, I think he makes a good point. Thankfully I've got a decent computer which loads the maps pretty quickly, but a nice, informative loading screen really oozes quality in a game. I've actually taken screenshots from the singleplayer ladder loading screens.

1337 Newbie:

LAG, perhaps? Check your connection and the server's connection. If the ping is too high, you'll get that effect every now and then.
Also, I'm pretty sure that LAG and low memory effects can be stacked on top of each other.



Something I'd like to see added to that list is the ability to land a raptor on top of a hellbender/scorpion/leviathan, get out, board the wheeled vehicle and transport it away.
I mean, we have highly-interactive bodies in there, why did they forget the friction?


Also, something that bothers me a LOT is that bot manned vehicle turrets tend to shoot at nowhere for extended periods of time. Also, when in the leviathan, the turrets can hit the leviathan itself, and before you say "turn the freakin' friendly fire off", I'm talking about how annoying is to be hearing yourself saying all day "SAME TEAM!"

And to conclude, I really hate it when any vehicle gets stuck against a wall (specially corners)

But what the heck, I guess it's a very good start

And as an added bonus, you get a crash-to-desktop every 10 minutes or so! Sigh...
