It's really too bad I've lost interest in Unreal 2 :( I originally thought it was a genuine sequel to Unreal 1, but now I know it is not a sequel in any way. This is more like a single-player tactical team game with bots (commanding bots around). At least that is what I was told. Someone please tell me I'm wrong and that this is really a sequel, even though I know it's not.

my feeling is that Unreal 2 will get better reviews from the critics then UT2003, will look better visually, have more depth then most FPS games, and will sell terrible, if it comes out before Christmas it is too close to other games that have mp like NOLF2, UT2003, Breed, and BF1942, if it comes out after Christmas it has to deal with Doom 3 and Kreed. :(

Does anyone actually buy single player games? I mean what is the point? I usually just borrow my friends copy, solve it in a weeked or so and give it back.

So this uses different technology than ut2k3? What's different about Unreal 2? Just more poly's?

but the real question we have to ask following this statement is this: does it seem odd to anyone else that Infogrames would release both Unreal Tournament 2003 and Unreal II in the US almost side by side? Will gamers be prepared to fork out for both in such a short space of time when they could potentially get a comparable single- and multiplayer experience by purchasing only one competing title?

Um, what comparable single and multiplayer experience?

DNF will now use the UT2003 engine but don't worry it will just "port" right over shouldn't add but a week or 2 to dev time.

This is what they said about going from Q2 engine to Unreal engine.

Gorgeous looking game (forgive the strong adjective) ~ I suspect that it should run at a similar rate as the UT2k3 demo, unless the outdoor environments are massive and complex (which I guess they will be). Hopefully, my Radeon 8500 will hang in there for awhile longer, can't beat the image quality, at least.....

I meant to say in a thread by itself...

I think it's safe to assume that the Unreal 2 Engine is more or less "ready".

The only thing that could hold up something like Unreal 2 itself is the time it takes to develop all of the maps, textures and some of the models specific to Unreal 2. That, and maybe fleshing out the storyline of Unreal 2.

Not sure if the same thing could be said for Duke Nuke'Em Forever.. unless their codebase for the engine is 90%-99% in sync with the engine for Unreal 2, or they're willing to stick with the Unreal 1 engine. It's always very time-consuming to switch engine, especially as new "cool" features are added into newer versions of the engines.

I would say, just stick to it, and get the job done by Christmas 2002 or Christmas 2003.
