ok.. so im probably talking to myelf here as i have no idea who has this and who doesnt.
so anyway, with the wealth of mods and maps already out for UT3 i thought i would start a thread up where we can discuss and ask questions about new mods and maps.. maybe even help each other out.
im no expert, but so far i have downloaded every mod and DM map out there, so if theres anything i can help with, just post and i'll help where i can.
i shall start this with my fav map, there are just so many new user maps, where do i start..?
i would say FLATWARS is possibly my favourite map at the moment. we've all played BEDROOM etc etc on HalfLife, SOF, Red Faction.. in fact any game where you could make up DM maps, someone has made their bedroom, lol.
FLATWARS is no different, its a sitting room and kitchenette. but its MASSIVE! reminds me of a lot of maps because of the open space, but i have never seen a map that you could be up sooo high and see lil tiny weeny people running around and to be able to get down to floor level and kick arse (or get kicked)... theres a lot of sniper rifles in this one, and its a well chosen wep for it, amazing sniper places.. some truely magic.
and theres even the Redeemer to contend with, tho a cheap shot but funny one at that.
one of the funny aspects of the map is the humour.. theres an 360 console showing the 360 logo on the massive LCD, which is funny.
tho might be close to the bone as most are saying UT3 maps and mods wont be coming to the 360 due to LIVE restrictions.. but anyways, its a great great map.
dont get me wrong.. theres loads of great user maps there, some are every bit as good as the official ones.
as for MODS (mutators).. i find myself using the new JETPACK mod a lot, as well as inf ammo when im playing bots, but unfortunatly you cannot drop the redeemer if you have that mod on.. so prepare to jump off something high when you get bored of nuking everything.
another mod that im very fond of is the GIBALICIOUS its fun. Just blows you up in bits more than before.. if thats possible!
lastly an interesting mod is the 3rd person mod.. Gears of war anyone?? i do like that view, but i like to stick to FPS...
anyway, post if you find anything cool.. and il just post when something good comes up..
