Depends on the map. On Sentinel, yeah, it can easily turn into a landslide.
And also my previous statement was only in regards to DM/TDM. It's even sillier when you factor in CTF.

yea so someone got the PSTripple version today
"So far, so good. I've spent tons of time in Resistance (far too much, really) and do agree it is fantastic online. Right now, everything looks great. There's an in-game buddy list, which is ace. There is voice chat! Stability will come with time, and I'm sure we'll find out in a few days when thousands go online."

unfortunately, no splitscreen

anyone know when we will hear numbers for the PC version? it almost sounds unreal but is it possible this game only sold 2000-3000 copies so far? considering there are 500-1000 people online at peak times and if half of the people that buy the game don't go online then that=2000 copies sold total 
?

"It ships today and is in stores tomorrow. How are people supposed to play a game that's not really out yet?"
PC version.
PC version.
No, it takes a lot of horsepower to run a game splitscreen when it looks as good as UT3.
btw, PC patch is out. seems like they fixed the "console" UI and other bugs

anyone know if those WASD centered half keyboard things work on the PS3? im talking about the things that are like a small circle of square with WASD in the middle and ment for "hardcore" pc gamers.
I would never buy one of those for PC, but for my console set up, they would work really well.

UT3 talk on EGM Live. haven't heard it, I just hope to god it's not Shoe

Judging by the leaderboards, there's been at least 55k copies sold. And that's just because I see one of my friend's position.

no real information at all aside from saying the PS3 version looks really nice and runs butter smooth.

Damn really?
Nah that can't be true, its madness! UT has a good fanbase (well Epic) so that alone should sell. Same team who did gears should sell. Console isn't even out yet (in socal its not) and i dont recall seeing the PC version anywhere except for a couple of few places that sold early.

Ah, I misunderstood, it's 4 player co-op, but they're going the Halo 3 route, with only 2 players per screen.
They had said this in OXM a few months ago:

Regardless, I'm still getting it for PS3, I suppose there's always Haze for my splitscreen fix.

Status report on server populations ASAP. I am picking this up today as well but I am concerned about the fractured userbase splitting between kb.m and sixaxis and the lack of PR. 4 on 4 in UT3 would not be fun.Aeon712 said:Just called the store I work at and we have it, Now to shower and go pick it up

1 on 1 was always fun in the UT series. obviously not every map is suitable for every number of players, but 4 on 4 is absolutely fun at least in the last three games in the series.DenogginizerOS said:

It can be fun. That is true. But ideally, I think UT3 is designed with full rooms in mind.plagiarize said:

Aeon, im picking it up now. Message me on PSN when you get it and lets duke it out!
Edit:
I'm really excited to get mods on this, so heres a couple of questions for the PC folks.
Are there significant mods up yet? and how do you download them/transfer them to PS3? I don't have it on PC, but my friend does and i'm probably going to his house today to check it out.
Still, that bad? I was tempted to pick it up as a side track from WoW or TF2...but with those sales I don't know if its even worth it.Teknopathetic said:"anyone know when we will hear numbers for the PC version? it almost sounds unreal but is it possible this game only sold 2000-3000 copies so far? considering there are 500-1000 people online at peak times and if half of the people that buy the game don't go online then that=2000 copies sold total

How long will it take before they even get decent mod support at this point?

Depends on how fast Epic starts a Make Something Unreal contest. That really spurred mod creation.

It's crazy that the PS3 version will likely sell more than the PC version. Never thought I'd see that day. Thirty percent slower gameplay is probably a good thing. The PC version seemed almost TOO fast IMO. It sucks that when the X360 verison comes out it will outsell the PS3 version like 3-1 at minimal.
