found this IRC Q & A chat about UT3, enjoy

http://www.beyondunreal.com/content/articles/203_1.php

some of my favorites

• Underscore: What kind of mutators will come with the game? Are there any particularly interesting ones you can tell us about?
[Epic]stuman: Instagib is definitely in, of course
[Epic]Checker: i was too late with the Hugh Jazz mutator, so you will have to do with Big head :p
[EPIC]WarTourist: Low grav

• [BU]Raffi_B: on another note, how does the game feel in terms of things like eye height and run speed?
[Epic]IctusBrucks: in terms of height and speed I think it feels more like UT99
[Epic]DrSiN: Raffi the game feels a lot like UT99
[Epic]Checker: Eye height and run speeds feel great, very UT99ish

• The_Marauder: Is rocket jumping still a valid tactic with the new gravity and movement settings? I know you have tried to make UT3 less "floaty" but will that reduce the effectiveness of rocket jumps as well
[EPIC]Mysterial: we have mostly focused on making sure the impact jumps are set up correctly. We haven't really devoted much to rocket jumps - that's why we have an impact hammer

• Jackal: Can you elborate more about this seamless level loading? Is it directly when the map ends, a new one is ready? No break in between?
[EPIC]Mysterial: it's basically a loading screen but you still get the scoreboard, can view player info, can chat, and you don't have to re-establish connection

• Trailboss: Have Epic decided whether UT3 is going to be the last in the series or are they thinking of another one?
[Epic]DrSiN: UT will live forever.

sounds to me like this is gonna be pretty damn good, not another 2k4 flop imo. but still cant and wont ever beat UT99 in terms of gameplay i dont think. still, its time to try something new no matter how much it may or may not suck LONG LIVE UT

Awesome. I can't wait.

ill stick to ut99

actually no. have you even read over the Q & A? its not even gonna be close to 2K4.

i mean seriously. everyone complained that 2k4 was lacking that UT99 feel. well now it supposedly has that UT99 feel, they brought back piston and 6 rox alt fire grenades. the requirements arent even that high. what more can you want?

the only reason people will knock it and keep playing UT99 is cause they cant bring thier aimbots to UT3 or they have gotten so good at UT99 that they refuse to re-learn how to play a new game for fear of not being one of the elite in a game thats been played for almost 10 years. ....old.

P.S. I'm not directing that rant fully at you dede, HUGS im just tired of people categorizing the game as a 2k4 knockoff.

people still play UT99?

dont matter I'm done gaming after ut99 anyway

weak.

..dont have any more time..and i still like ut99....so why change?

I'll get it as soon as I get a new computer. My computer is old
