OldUnreal (Engine)

Shouldn't Unreal II now be old, as UT3 was released? Or at least next year?

i do believe it is old, but if your asking if we should bring it to this site, in my opinion i would vote no :/... It isn't nearly as fun as the tournaments or U1.... and, well, you cant play it online, which is the only reason i play pc games

Wait a minute, you mean XMP, which was made mainly for playing online, doesn't work?
Not much is there to write about it anyway

Last time I had xmp installed it worked just fine. I even had it installed in UT2K4. Worked just fine, however there were'nt many servers.

No. UnrealII isn't cool enough to be on OldUnreal.

I played XMP when it first came out, it is a lot of fun, but the lack of coop is junk.

I have it now... Any tips on how to fix major bugs? It's nice but buggy...

hmm..... XMP huh? ima google that....

On the U2 subject, what do you think about it? Why don't you like it or why do you like it? I am thinking of making something like an Unreal II Revival project. Did you know that you can play Botmatch and even Capture the Flag in Unreal II? Would you like to have easier access to those games (if you own U2)? And anyone know UScript and want to help us make some mods for Unreal II?

generally its a good idea I think, but on the other side, someone needs to maintain it. To gather information, collect stuff, mods, downloads, maps...- to make the pages for it is easy, but the work around it- I hardly have the time to do anything new to update the unreal sections, not talking about UT.
It all takes a lot of time, which I currently don't have...

As far as I have googled, there is so few information that there is quite nothing to gather... There are like 4 mods, a few deathmatch maps, no CTF maps (temporarily), and all listing it needs is probably essential files and walkthrough...

Yes,theres virtually no support for u2.Alot of people hated it but I actually enjoyed it.It is different.XMP,when it finally came out was a big disappointment but the actual single player game was pretty sweet once you got used to it.If it had co-op I think it would have become popular.

Co-op? Hmm, there's no in-built gametype for that and server configuration is kinda hard to do, but... Maybe someone will make that gametype as well. Why would have become? Maybe it will be popular again when people will actually have something else to do other than playing the single player! Legend left many things unfinished or finished but not integrated, and some people say that there is 60% more things to be discovered if someone would actually work on it. And the worst thing about it is that there is not much of community there. XMP isn't very good only because it's very dependent on the internet connection and servers. Botmatches aren't, though it is also possible to make online play as Legend added that function just as well. If U2 had a tool to easier launch Deathmatch and Capture the Flag matches, it could become more popular and fun to play! Especially with a large selection of user-made maps and imports from UT99 and even U1.

And Unreal II has completely nothing to do with Unreal1. The only thing thats familiar is that youre going to fight the Skaarj again, but evens those don't evens look a bit like the Skaarj From Unreal1. I played the Sp version sometimes, its a nice game, but i don't think it fits in here either.

I assume that's just because they are of a slightly different breed. These guys operate in individual tribes rather than in an army, operated and housed by a mothership like in u1.

Mental, does UT have anything to do with U1? It doesn't even have Skaarj by default!

No, not only that, they ain't look the same as the Skaarj either, and the story is completely different. I think they had at least can make it a little bit more like Unreal.

Well Yea, your right about that differenses between U1 And Ut99, but its based on Unreal1, and if you ever downloaded Custom maps/mods, some of them have for example titans etc in it.

U2 is dead, the master server is dead, there are 2 or 4 XMP servers.

there are custom masterservers for xmp , last time i played it

Unreal is pure magic, simple and elegant.
Unreal 2 is just another game with a marine shooting everything in sight. The storyline is simply ridiculous and the character is so slow and clumsy that I fell asleep while playing several times.
Dialogs are stupidly useless and the game is ugly despite the use of myriads of effects.
It was one of my biggest disappointment ever in a game.
The game has no following which doesn't surprise me the least.

it was a horrible game.

no. i liked unreal II it was just short

Jackrabbit, everyone has their OWN opinion of things, did you know that? Stop acting like an ass every 3 seconds, please. It's not even right.

I liked Unreal 2 also, including the model converts for UT2004. U2 Marines!

Unreal II might have been a horrible game, but the engine it runs under is not.  I think there is still alot of "opprotunities" for people to experiment with this engine more. (expecially with terrain)

that is my opinion.  My opinion is its a horrible game.  Now please fuck off.

Unreal II XMP is a very nice game. Much more enjoyable than Capture the Flag bacause of the additional gameplay elements through energy management, cannons, vehicles and capturable spawn points.
