What will it take?

What do you all think it will take to make this game popular and get more people to play it?

Re: What will it take?

I don't even know why very little people are playing it. The graphics are great, the gameplay is solid and I've found absolutely no bugs whatsoever. It's a good game and doesn't feel like a console port as some people claim. I find it really fun but I usually have to end up playing on European servers and get like 200+ ping but I don't notice lag so it works for me. I really like playing on that 64 slot server that usually has 40+ players. I wish they'd rotate more maps, but whatever. The ping is low, too. :) Playing against the bots works for me if no one is online because they can get quite hard depending on the settings.

I'm gradually seeing the playing count go up, but without knowing why people don't play it's kinda hard to figure out what to do to make them play.

COD4 killed it. Crysis killed it.

Only thing, it's not worth losing such an amazing game to Crysis.

Totally agree. I don't know why either. Maybe a more realistic mod will bring people in.

Re: What will it take?

I think people who got the demo couldn't play it on all high. So I guess they stayed with 04 which is still great

Re: What will it take?

I think people didnt get it cause it has high requirements and they couldnt run it on high

Re: What will it take?

CoD4's requirements are a tiny bit higher than UT3's, so I don't see how not having a capable PC is an excuse for UT3's low numbers

Re: What will it take?

well then i would be able to play it on high then, but UT gameplay is kind of bad to me. so im not wastin any money on it

Re: What will it take?

I played the demo and really enjoyed it. A friend of mine bought it but he told me he didn't have fun with it, I just said: "Are you crazy?". So he gave it to me, I played 30min and then I uninstalled it.

I think I just played too much Q3 and UT...

Re: What will it take?

UT3, imo, doesn`t feel like a real UT game. Can`t put my finger on it, but it just doesn`t. that, and the UI and the lack of options suck complete balls. I still play it from time to time though.
