Ut2k4 is so fantastic, I still have a scar on my forehead from the first time I played the demo on a CRT sitting on a chair and my friend tackled me into it to "save me from a sniper". I would get up at 4am because I had a bedtime but no wakeup time and play 4 hours of CTF-Face instagib before school. Q3DM17 also holds a special place in my heart, I'm getting a tattoo of the "Impressive" emblem in a few weeks!
Not a day goes by that I don't pine for turn of the century FPS gameplay. (and maybe my turn of the century reflexes)
- orthecreedence 2y agoInstagib was the only way I'd ever play. And the bots in the game were actually (adjustingly) capable so I could play for hours just by myself.
- paulryanrogers 2y agoUT's bots really helped at smaller LAN parties and get togethers. They weren't as competitive as professional players, yet could actually play the different modes and fill out the teams. Before that point bots seemed only capable of team death match.
- cdaringe 2y agoHaha this is incredible! I had a gap in my gaming years—I only enjoyed UT GOTY (a 2000 release?)—and sounds like the series carried the same kill streak sound bites over. Impressive is prob a safer tatt than HEAD SHOT!
- cbull 2y agoIf you have a copy of the game there's still playable servers using Openspy ( http://beta.openspy.net/en/server-list/ut2004 http://beta.openspy.net/en/server-list/ut2004 ). I play regularly and the couple of servers I play on get full to the point nobody else can join...
- NateEag 2y agoI was pining for oldschool UT recently, and found that Xonotic (https://xonotic.org/ https://xonotic.org/) has done a decent job of filling that void. The player base is small, and the skill ceiling is extremely high, but it's a shockingly solid piece of work for a free, open source game.
