Fingers crossed UT2004 will end up in the Archive eventually. I still boot it up to play occasionally because nothing else has scratched the arena shooter itch that well.
- hackernewds 2y agowhy not just buy it?
- flakes 2y agoWhy do you assume they didn't? > I still boot it up to play occasionally
- goosedragons 2y agoYou can't anymore besides used physical copies. Epic delisted all the Unreal games.
- jamesfinlayson 2y agoYes, I recently found that out. I bought Unreal on GOG a few years back and was wanting to get Unreal Tournament 2004 recently (I played a bit of the demo back in 2005 or 2006) but currently no digital options.
- Woshiwuja 2y agoSure, give me a link.
- deknos 2y agoi would buy instantly if it works on linux on 64 bit machines. all of them.
- all2 2y agoWith the vehicles? That game was nuts.
- pandemic_region 2y agoPancake !
- snarfy 2y agoUT2004 is on archive.org already, fully patched with some modern additions. I'm very hopeful this will get Epic's blessing too. What is strange is that they approve of the archive.org download, instead of say, OldUnreal hosting it themselves. The archive.org uploader could update it with malware. It would be nice if they allow OldUnreal to host.
- bayindirh 2y agoUT2004 shipped with its Linux binaries in the 3rd disc. I remember playing it a ton until migrating to 64bit system. Wish they GPL that one, too, so we can build a 64bit version of that.
- KETHERCORTEX 2y agoThere's a Flatpak package for UT2k4 on Flathub that launches on modern 64 bit systems. You just need to provide game assets and enter CD key.
- elbear 2y agoAnother UT2004 fan signing in. I haven't played it that much recently, but I still have it installed.
