Well, I caved in and bought the Unreal 2004 Special Edition. For $40 with a free headset, I figured I couldn't go wrong.

The new additions sound really great (vehicles!).

Who else will be playing this? Maybe we can get together.

assuming i get a good video card soon ..hopefully ill get it

You know I'm there, Cheapy.

Admit it, I convinced you to get this before you convinced me to get Tribes and a network adaptor. Ha-ha.

If my GeForce 3 Ti200/XP2000+ can handle it, and my wedding budget doesn't suck up all of my money, I am so there!

Ah, another one....when is your date? I'm in June.

I have a GeForce4 MX something or other with 64MB...its came with my Dell...I hope its good enough.

I'm getting married April 24th on a Caribbean Island during a Disney Cruise. Pretty exciting stuff I must say. That pretty much sums up where my money is going although I manage to get in on the occassional $10 or $20 deal here and there.

I hear on VG talk that in store they are going to be having a trade in deal where you trade in UT2K3 and get it for free after rebates. (UT2K3 purchase gives you a 10 dollar UT2K4 rebate)

on top of this there is supposed to be a 10 dollar trade in credit and a 20 dollar EB mail in rebate

You do know the demo is now out.... :wink:

I have it on preorder, along with doom 3 and half-life 2. Should have new computer within a month.

The demo of this is so freaking awesome. It's way better then 2K3.
I'd rate thet UT games in this order:
UT2K4 (from whatI've played) > UT1 > UT2K3

I'm definately buying the final version of this game.

I just upgraded my PC, and my old video card was not compatible with my new motherboard. So I'm temporarily using my friend's Geforce 2 MX400 32MB until I can afford my own video card. Although I can't set the details too high, the demo is playable and I'm enjoying it.

According to the game manual that came with the demo, here are the system requirements:

Operating system: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/Linux
Processor: Pentium III 1.0 GHz or AMD Athlon 1.0 GHz (1.2 GHz or faster recommended)
Memory: 128 MB minimum, 256 MB recommended
Hard disk space: 5.5 GB free (damn that's a lot)
CD-ROM Drive: 8x speed (DVD-ROM required for DVD Special Edition)
Video: 32 MB Windows 98/ME/2000/XP-compatible video card (64 MB NVIDIA GeForce 2 or ATI Radeon Hardware T&L card recommended, DirectX 9.0b compatible)
Sound: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP-compatible sound card
DirectX: DirectX version 9.0b (included) or higher
Modem: 33.6 Kbps modem for LAN/internet play (Broadband recommended)

Yeah, the demo IS freaking awesome. I love playing assault and just defending, man, nothing can get through me. And all those new vehicles on Onslaught? Amazing. I once had like, 5 people on the Humvee(at least i call it that), even though only 3 people are suppose to ride on it, you can just let people hop on the top. Must get this game..

Oh yeah, I have a GeForce2 32mbs, and the game is working..decently. Sure it has it downtimes, but for the most parts, its a-ok, just turn down the quality settings. I'm planning on getting a new gfx card though.

One more thing, I always play whenever I'm at my friends house, and I go there often, so if you ever see someone named "IceCreamMan", yeah, thats me baby. 8)

This means I need a new Hard Drive and a new DVD Drive. Hopefully I can talk my parents into paying for all this over Spring Break

I played the demo, and it feels like they butchered the HUD and menus. They look much more primitive than 2003. Other than that... over a hundred maps, I've heard spanning ten gametypes. Cool beans. Any word on the discount for UT2k3 owners?

Anyone up for a demo game tonight, maybe around 7pm EST?

im up for it ill be on in an hour and a half what name for the server? i just have to get the demo.
Edit:the demo doesnt user mic does it

No, the mic isn't required.
