Unreal Tournament 2007

I feel that the conquest mode will probably be better handled through clan scirms and matches, rather than public server play. Now that I think of it, public server will probably be real chaotic. Fans of this future game mode will probably be more interested in joining gaming clans for there playing pleasure.

ue3 and dual enforcers, yes it is....nerdvana

Didn't say anything about keeping INV, Hope they just dont toss that Game Type.

Actually I hope they DO toss it out. That way someone from the community like Obscenery can come in and write something better from the ground up.
If any of you havent played around with Obscenery's MonsterManager mutator and it's Extreme Invasion gametype then you are missing what truly can be done with good invasion code rather than the code thats been left unchanged for almost two years at least.

I say either Epic recodes Invasion right this time or leave it to the community who can do better.

It says the double jump is back. Isn't double tapping the space bar the same thing?

It also mentioned Assault, Bombing Run, and Domination won't be in 2007. Does that mean it'll be taken out of the single player part of the game? I kindof enjoyed Bombing Run on the ladder.

And I'm guessing Conquest is player against player on teams. It wouldn't be player against alien on teams?

Obviously, I really have no clue what to compare this to. I've never even seen the original.

Yeah, it means no more bombing run, no more assault (boo!!!), and no more domination.

which means that unless they change their minds, some of the funnest game types will be lost.

I checked on the official forums for UT2007, and there it was stated that Invasion will be gone.

As far as Conquest in concerned, I have no idea what the point or objective of the game mode is, except to prove how huge a map they can build, and how many people they can cram into it.

It doesn't sound that appealing to me.

In spite of the return of the enforcer, I may have to withdraw my Uber Woot! comment.

No invasion either?!?!?!?!?!?! that tanks. i take authority to remove your UBER WOOT!!!! taco, and replace it with STICK WITH 2K4 EVERYONE!!!!!

Before you get too worked up about the gametypes they are removing, dont forget that any coder that makes gametypes could easily recreate the types they leave out.

I fully expect to see someone pick up the project to code Invasion for UT2007, and if there was enough requests they could do DOM and BR. The reason Epic is leaving them out is because they are the least played online.

Invasion is played by soooo many people. But you are right about the requests and redoing the coding, I was just a little bit hot headed at that moment.

Yeah the decision to dump invasion is strange considering how popular it is. My first choice would be to have Epic sit down with Mysterial and Obscenery and remake the whole thing. But since that wont happen, Id rather have them dump it so someone else can do it right rather than leave the same stale code and just include it again.

And my comment about the least played types being dumped was more about DOM and BR. I personally like BR since its like playing football but it is right down there with DOM for least number of servers online.

I am fully overwhelmed by what I read in the 1up article. I'm a designer junkie, and the notes about the level design make me think this is going to be an awesome incarnation of the UT series. I understand that there is a deal of animosity towards altering some aspects of the current version, but then again, a lot changed between the original UT and UT2k3/2004, so I welcome whatever Epic will throw at me. I'm sure it will be a quality product.

Few extra notes here.
