Anyone know when UT2 is being released? Can't find it in the stores yet and my online store has a preorder set until the end of July! I can't wait that long for DX8 goodness!!

Need... better... graphics... (wheeze...)

from what i've seen ther is going to be a release of UT 2003 this fall then next year you'l see UT 2.

I'm looking forward to Elite Force II and Doom III. :D

Sorry all for the confusion. I know that they changed the name to UT 2003, but for some reason that fact didn't make it to my post. Oops!

Well shoot, I was hoping it would be here before late July, but alas perhaps this is for the best. I really should cut back on my game spending. ;) Oh well, back to playing the original UT...

UT2 will now be released in August:(

I take a delay in game releases as a good sign that the producers want to make sure they release a quality product instead of rushing an unpolished product to the market, Project IGI case in point:mad:

Well, at least this gives me more time to save up for that new graphics card! :D I read an AnandTech article recently about 19 different graphics chipsets and how they performed with the Unreal Warfare engine. Suffice to say that, with my current card, I can expect to get good performance, with 16-bit color and all the details set to medium or lower at 800 x 600! :mad: I'm far too used to playing games with 32-bit color at 1280 x 1024, I guess, so it's off to Newegg's site!

Project IGI case in point:mad:
Yeah, I heard that game really blowed big time! They're trying again and the second one has gotten better press. I think after the first IGI got bashed by just about everyone they figured they should do it better and let everyone know!

A lot of the particular UT community that I hang in has gone on hiatus til the UT2K3 release....our ladders are still cooking...just not as busy as was :(

Several of the clans have plans for migration to the new stuff...and some of us are even hopeful to keep the original going ;)

Good luck on that video card hunt...whip out the wallet! I'm gonna have to do a little upgrading on my end as well...the GF2 MX 400 32MB aint gonna cut it...LOL

Yep, I just saw that on another website. Why must they torture us so? They have now pushed it back a full two and a half months since I've been tracking it! :( All I can say is that it better be rock solid with no multiplayer/network problems. And I hope they improved the .ini & console commands to allow us to have more control over dedicated server mode (for testing maps and such).

Ah well, back to the first UT...

I think the latest release date is pretty firm.There was suppose to be a demo of the game released before then,but it hasn't appeared above ground yet either.Sept. isn't too far off.Everyone have their new video cards installed? This one is crying out for a GeForce 4 TI. :D
