I havent played it in a loooong time, but I do indeed have it. And there's a native linux client, which is even more convienient :p

I've not played for ages! Assuming I can find my copy count me in.

What do you normally play? I always seem to end up on Instagib CTF.

I used to play ctf, dm, ons.... tried br but it was hard to get a good game. I have tried insta, which I normally did when I needed to sharpen up my lightning gun headshots.

Ive played UT a bit online but not much really. I'd be willing to be target practice for the rest of you though :D

Was cack at it anyway. :D

I've got a cough copy so doubt it'll work :/
Tbh I prefer original UT, just seems more fun :)

If I can find a cheap copy of UT2k4 though I'll join in.

Me too. I'm very good at sniping and running off the edges of stuff though - not very good at the whole turning and shooting at the same time thing! ;D

I think play.com have it for a tenner, Jen.

Haly

Cool, ordered then :)
I have a spooky feeling i bought it from play originally, ages back when it first came out I had it on pre-order through them, but sold it a few months later.

Edit: Play scares me.....it took 3 clicks and I'd ordered it, that's too simple :/

Burble

I've got UT2K7 on pre-order from Play and looking in my order history I have had since 3rd Jan. Current estimated shipping date is May 2007 :/

Haly
17-08-2006, 19:54
They might have to rename it to UT2k8 :eek:

Yep I've got it ordered from there too, ordered mine on the 28/12/2005 :shocked:
Last time I looked it had a September release date? :undecided:

It did until last week :/

:angry: Was looking forward to that. Aaaaah *small mountain of change drops* with Vista coming at the end of the year.... whats the betting its been pushed back so that its a vista only game?

Didn't realise we had so many players here.... a public server must be raided when we get back

I'm not the only one thinking it'll be a Vista only title then :/

We can either go for a public server or I can run a UT2K4 server on the same box that my Q4 server lives on.

Game's arrived while I was away.
Have to get it installed and a game going :)

I've got it! Another game I bought, installed, played for a bit and then forgot about.

Burble
22-08-2006, 17:44
I think my copy is in the office as I've got vague memories of taking it there when I knew I was going to have to be working late one night waiting for stuff to get done.

I'll have a look when I go there on Friday.

I've just recently started playing this.
Playing in single player mode until I get the hang of it.l

Is it normal to shout and swear at the monitor? only I found myself capturing the opposition flag and being faced by most of the opposing team and getting slaughtered - I was shouting at my imaginary team mates "FFS, wheres my back up you useless bastards?" - I just wondered if this was normal or not.

Gaming is the only thing that is guaranteed to make me swear like a trooper.
As many of you know, I don't tend to swear often in RL (and when i do it's usually because I've had a few :embarassed:) but gaming will always make me swear with frustration :D

Pebs
23-08-2006, 22:20
I get tourettes when playing this. I reckon I could make a docker blush with my language :D

Burble
23-08-2006, 22:22
I swear like a trooper when playing games. It was quite amusing to hear all the others on the Q4 server I run doing the same thing when I enabled voice chat. Good job we're all friends on there or it could have turned ugly :D

Stan_Lite
23-08-2006, 22:23
It's not just me then?

Even the "gentler sex" resort to profanities when things don't go according to plan :D

Edit: I posted this at the same time you did Burberry - obviously, I don't include you in the gentler sex category :D

I'm an equal oportunities cusser ;) Usually when I fall off something. Or when some gets the really big gun from under my nose. Or when I get sniped. Or pretty much any time really :)

Burble
23-08-2006, 22:36
I swear most when I've wiped myself out. In Q3 it was falling off ladders that did it, whereas in Q4 I'm an expert at flying off into space. If only that was the aim of the game!

Pebs

Is there anything in place yet for a group thingy? Although I need to practise a bit first.....forget I said anything.

My copy of UT2K4 has been found and will be coming home with me tonight :)

Pebs
25-08-2006, 21:11
W**K!

I cant find my copy, and even if I could my cd rom thingy doesnt seem to be working.

B*****KS!

You can all stop panicking and get a good nights sleep now. I've found the discs, and also some random CD thingy which has been plugged in a vacant hole and has lights on it! (thats good right?)

Sounds good to me, as long as there are lights, that's a good sign.

Having said that, if the lights flash and the thing still doesn't work, I'm stumped - if the lights work, the thingummyjig should work too - right?

Stan :)

Pebs
26-08-2006, 21:56
Well its all beside the poxy point anyway! I have it installed on my pc already (which I knew), and I dont need a cd key thing (which I didnt know) so I need neither cds or cd thingy with lights. GRRRRRR!!

I still suck at it too! :D

I'm playing single player just now and I've just heard the computer characters say pwnage -PMSL ;D

Out of interest what skill level do people put bots on when playing single player?

I had them on Average yesterday while doing some DM Instagib and they were quite easy. :)

I know what full online play can be like, I die quick :)

Lol.

I know what you mean. I'm a bit of a noob so I'm still on the easiest settings yet :embarassed:

I went online last night (slightly pissed) for a laugh and got killed about 20 times in a couple of minutes - I did manage to get 3 myself though.

Well it's Eve downtime so I'm installing this now. Spent ages looking for the box and finally found it on top of a damn pile. *sigh*
