NEW WALLPAPER.
**** YEAH. BIORIFLE BIORIFLE BIORIFLE.
did i mention that i like the biorifle?
Not really arguing that the design/art influence isn't from UT. Just a general trend of 'sameness' in games using a particular engine.
I'd be surprised if another UE3 game didn't look very similar in terms of color scheme and mechanical/ruined world environment. I suppose you could say that a lot of the similar looking games in question are staged in similar settings, but even so it seems to be that there's a lack of effort to distinctly differentiate each game visually.

i don't know. it's only really the outside screenshot whatever that's from (possibly assualt gameplay, but most likely just intro stuff). the second shot looks totally like unreal tournament to me, and that's the one showing the stuff i expect to be seeing most of the time.Neo_ZX said:

My biggest issue with (hate of) UE3 is that here is such a huge disparity between the poly-count of the in-game models and the poly count of the source models for the normal-maps used that it makes my eyes bleed.Neo_ZX said:
All that it does is highlight the shittiest parts of the model for me.
FiRez said:
Sure but with UT3 you have huge maps with tons of players running around shooting each other, using vehicles, capturing flags/bases/whatever etc. whereas with gears the scope is pretty limited
I HOPE it looks that good on the 360 though, as my PC blows and I doubt I'll be upgrading anytime soon

So did any one of you guys actually watch the video clip? PS3 FPS online gaming might start with me if they include invites in the game.

Wow, I can't wait. The unreal series on the PC has been one of my favorite PC shooters.
Good thing that I can play it on both my PC and 360.

There's a very high res version of the top image, looks ingame to me. The admin who posted the shots on BU said it was too.
They also have a hands-on preview of the game:

Does that sound more like your UT?

Looks like Real-Time screenshots, with a little PhotoShop touch up. Although Epic has already proved itself with GOW, so I wouldn't be surprised if turns out looking better upon release. Regardless, I wonder if the 360 verison (possible even on the PS3 counterpart), will offer some the extensive UT3 features that have come standard in the PC incarnations (like Unreal Engine 3.0). Would be awesome to be able to download/upload customized characters, levels, games, etc on LIVE ya know.

It's the 360 Tim Sweeney was only ever a little hesitant about in that regard, actually. PS3's platform is apparently that little bit more open in terms of user-created content etc, but I wouldn't be surprised if Epic and MS have finally sorted something out in that regard.

I'll tell you when I made my shieldgun-boostjumps up slopes on my favorite Bombing Run Maps. That won't happen. So no. Doesn't sound like what I love about UT.BadAss84 said:
On another level; a reasonable Competition Mode, finally good Demorecording, Shield stacking that makes sense and better original Maps is what should be the dominant improvements in a new UT. Not aliens and shiny graphics to sell the engine. Do that with Unreal 3. But okay. Epic wants to make money, dumbs and slows down the gameplay to make it compatible to consoles.
That's what it looks like to me now. Someone convince me it's different. But I don't think anyone will.

How exactly is the gameplay "dumbed down?"

Ah so many stupid people say this. It was not dumbed down for consoles, period. They are going back to a more UT feel to make the game actually popular again, and try to re-unite the UT community as a whole. Whether you like the UT style or 2kx style more, you can't deny that the UT style was more popular and is still more popular today, so this is what EPIC are going for to get more people to play the game. I personally like both styles, so i'll take either if it means a bigger community, and i think the way they are taking this game is a positive step towards that.
If you like the 2kx movment that much, keep playing 2k4

How could this game not be dumbed down in general when it is coming to consoles under the same name and not as a port later on? I can't even think of a gamepad configuration for doing the stuff I did in UT2k3/4 for 3 years. Starts with the constant quick mouse movements you NEED to do to move across the map quickly via Dodgejumps and ends with weaponselection. (no, not per mousewheel). Dodging alone. You need to doublepress a direction key to perform it. And in a normal game, you do this propably every 6-10 seconds. Now with an analogstick? Add a jump, selecting a weapon, aim and shoot at the same time. But with making dodging less important it's easier for new players and gamepad users. yay.BadAss84 said:Ah so many stupid people say this. It was not dumbed down for consoles, period.

And UT wasn't popular for its graphics (they were already meh compared to Q3) but for its fast and skillful gameplay. Yeah, I liked 2kx more because of the added movement possibilities. And I'll buy UT3 on the first day and hope I find my fun in it. But at the moment it looks more like Unreal 3 than UT3.
Oh and if anyone cares (if just for the music and style :Þ), I just uploaded my noobish Bombing Run Trickjumpvideo from 2003 to youtube:

Seriously though, that looks really awesome! I pray they can some how come close to those visuals on the consoles.

So you don't have any actual statements of the game being dumbed down besides Epic's admission that they're wanting to go back to their roots?

Because the ps3 version will have kb/m support so there will be no problem playing with pc players. If you don't use kb/m, you won't be able to do that im sure. Same with the 360 version, if it doesn't use kb/m then im sure they will only play with 360 players.
The pc version won't be affected by consoles, they've even stated this before too.
:Motorbass said:
I didn't say it was. It was popular because it was fast and skillfull as you said, but also because it was very fun and more accessible to new players. This is what UT3 seems to be aiming for again.
:Motorbass said:
How does it look like Unreal rather than UT? Just because they have cutscenes in SP now? That's a silly comment. Look at the gameplay bits in the trailer, and the older gameplay vids, and read the preview/info i posted earlier, it clearly looks like a UT game and it sounds and looks a lot more like UT(99) than the 2kx series did.
I can't wait for the game
@ motorbass
The movement on PS3 and X360 should be even more precise than on the PC due to the analog sticks. I can understand your concern about aiming on consoles (don't know how that has any influence on the PC version though), but analog movement is superior to digital 8 direction movement. You have a greater sense of control over your speed, you can dodge by slowing down for a couple of seconds.
The vehicles should control better in the console versions too.
There is no dumbing down on either platform.
