So, who's getting it?

I've preordered it on http://www.play.com

I'm definitely getting it, but not pre-ordering. UT04 was so much fun, UT3 is going to be awesome.

I might get it, but I don't have limitless cash unlike everyone else. . .

No-one has limitless cash. I have a bit when I want it cos I rarely spend anything! xP

I have a lot when I want it, and also not a lot when I want it, because I spend it on things I want, rather than on bills like I used to. I spend my money on 30 inch monitors and quad-core processors, yip.

DAMN YOU! Anyway, I thought you weren't getting the quad core?

Maybe, maybe not. I really can't decide.

Ah yes, I forgot you never make your mind up.

I bought this game today... for some reason.

I got it for Christmas, was kinda disappointed, only played it for a couple of hours and haven't played it since. The multiplayer was really screwed up (not working) and the player count was too low for UT (16 max, WTF).

You didn't try some of the other game modes then? They have a higher player limit. It's also been 5 months since Christmas!

I'm currently downloading through Steam on my girlfriend's computer with 2 hours remaining.

I'd swear even the new Onslaught mode had a max of 16, which just sucked.

I might play it with you sometime.

Though I'd like to think I was fairly good at 2004 and the earlier games, I really suck at UT3, which is the main reason I've not been playing it that much, the new Onslaught is just too hard and all about one or two super vehicles to be fun any more...

Yeah, I've actually uninstalled it now to make space for Mass Effect, lol. Never played it much anyway, whereas I got myself addicted to 04 at one point.

Hmm , UT3 is pretty good i never actually had 04 , or the previous game's i skipped ahead to ut3 the games alright sitll prefer quake series in my opinion, it's quiet laggy at times but most games are at one point.

such a good game. Im infact going install it now =) I used to always use Cheats on UT... god mode.. full ammo xD ghost. Was fun for a while.. then it just gets boring.

I used to do Super Beserk Vampire mode on UT04 - that was awesome (crazy weapons and health leeching), but you can't do it on UT3. I really think it has lost it's touch. Quite a buggy release too, which annoyed me and made me lose interest really quickly. Might give it another go Soon(TM).

Worzt thing about ti in my opinion was the menu interface, which annyoed the hell out of me, everything about it was clunky and just bad, and the lobby, though not as bad, which still bloody annoying to look through!

Necro time!

YAY, STEAM!

EDIT:
This is worth a read (also, you may need to unset read only on the UT3 folder)

Currently installing on Steam, it keeps jumping really fast, and saves me 9hours of downloading 8GB or whatever it is.

The upcoming patch sounds very good

I think I'll actually finally play this. Maybe I can persuade Si to set us up a server for some testing, too!

Yeh, told wolf about this, he will be installing tonight

I'm considering this game: I used to be a UT addict playing it all the time against Godlike bots and occasionally doing ok online.
Let me know how the patches are etc, Skillers.

Working on a server...

Awesomeness, I'm up for testing that

YAY!

I've been playing this today & its epic fun!

I'd definitely be up for testing a server. (I think jH have/had a test server on UT3).

Some custom maps would be nice as well if you got it working.

Not to my knowledge

Custom maps would be fun, but there are plenty of regular maps, and I/we haven't actually played them yet, lol.
