Same.
Would definitely have hype if this was a new (non-f2p) UT for PC and consoles. My heart tells me that ain't happening though.
So it'd be UT2k4, except that I'd have to pay for maps and mods and there probably wouldn't be offline bot support? Forgive me if I'm less than excited.
No. It's really simple. Just the entire MP experience + cosmetics/special character models.
Not every F2P game is a microtransaction hell, and there are plenty of shooters out now that prove it.

"No, not Unreal Tournament 3..."
UT3 is a mechanically fine game, better than 2K4 if we're being real. It's everything else about it that they fucked up.

Maybe it started in this thread?

"Best get off that sauce. Making you say crazy shit"
If all you do is play on iG CTF servers you'd probably not care either way, but 2K4's weapon balance is much worse in comparison to 99 or 3.

sniper freeze tag is where it's at
He's right though.

I had so much fun with UT, almost played it as much as CS
In terms of how it felt to play, UT3 was a lot better than most people seem to give it credit for. If you really want dire, look no further than UT 2003.

F2P straight remake of UT in UE4?

I briefly went trough it, saw only a beginning of something.
That 4 pages thread in no way can be related to the big announcement, right ?
Any way I hope it's not F2P, and it will be more like UT2K4. And not UT3.
Oh yeah I love when my arena shooters are slowed down so console players can aim with their analog sticks.
I dont know, 4 sites is pretty much on the Unreal engine forum xD
edit: this thread has the most Replies of ALL threads in general discussion.

I played a hell of a lot of UT2k4 and when I tried to play UT3 and any time I try to play UT3 I hate it. The movement feels clunky, everything seems far too big due (the models, the guns, everything is far too clunky as it was designed to run on a console) and everything feels just so much slower and that's not a good thing.
I realise that's just my opinion, but I don't think anyone could change that now.

I will be excited after I have a chance to play it. Thanks for that, UT3.
This could be really awesome. That being said, I don't know how I would feel about a f2p model for these games. Guess I would have to see how they make it work before passing judgement. Would love for an Unreal Tournament 4 though. Might even be a game that got me to upgrade my PC. MAYBE!

Maybe some free to play hybrid of the series. Maybe something like Quake Live.

This is your chance Epic, do it right. Unreal shouldnt be left to die out.
Umm, no. UT2003 was glorious. The movement and instagib was perfection.
Of course they "wrecked" that flow in UT2004, but it was still a fun game.

Playing UT2004 with a controller sounds horrible.
Um, no.
That flying trapeze trickjumping acrobat bullshit was just that, bullshit. (Yeah, I know, opinions and all that. But personally, I hated the movement in UT2003, and couldn't've been happier that they gave that stuff the axe going into 2k4.)DodgyGeezerFella

Yup. Just needed to drop the unified art style (and story) and let map makers go mental with their own ideas like old UT's and it would have been spot on. Also bring back Assault officially.

Did Cliffy get re-hired by Epic?
Quake Live inspired UT would be pretty awesome though.

A bit worried about the Unreal Engine 4 considering how the elemental demo runs on my pc... Anyways, I'm still in on the hype but I'm bracing myself for disappointment.

This.
For those interested in getting a basic idea of what Unreal Tournament 4 might look like on the new engine, feel free to download the UE4 shooter demo that was released:

Please don't play like UT3, please don't play like UT3.
What! for me, 99 > UT2k3 > UT3

IF it's great = fantastic!
If it's mediocre = go back to playing UT 2k4
All is good

For me, it'd probably be UT>UT3>UT2k4>>>>>>>>>>>UT2003.
Player scaling finally felt right again in UT3, for the first time since the original UT, and I'm partial to the feel of the weapons. Playing UT3 on the HOLP maps was some of the most fun I had with UT since '99. But hey, like I said before, it's all opinions, man.

Damn, that's ridiculously pretty. Looks more like a concept painting than a screenshot.

I've been saying they should release another UT on consoles and PC for awhile. Console gamers were still getting used to fps controls when they came out last. Now everyone should be ready for UT. I'm thinking a gorgeous UT remake with the new engine to test the waters and then a new UT if it succeeds. I loved the first UT so much. Would love to play on ps4 or xbone. Hell even a new PC only one might get me back into PC gaming.
