They should have made a Team Fortress style variation using the weapons from Unreal2.

I'm sorta looking foward to it. I love BF42 but I've always felt that its good but fucking slow (running around as infantry is a fucking chore...the game is great when you're playing with the nifty toys like the vehicles, the flak turrets, etc). A game with the vehicles and nifty stuff that BF42 had (and the cap and hold mode that BF42 did so well as it actually encourages teamplay) with a faster pace (specifically faster infantry) and less realism sounds nice to me. So I think this could be cool if done right (especially if the rebate thing for people with UT2k3 works out). It could also suck. HaloPC could also fulfill this desire I have, or some HL2 mod could.

Ah, the curse of a game designer. They have to make a game that gamers like, but gamers don't even know what they like. There are to many gamers that like different things. So, they make what they like and what they think gamers like. Then what they like isn't what they like anymore and in the end, no ones sure what it is. So, what to do? Put it out, hope, and pray.

RPG-style character enhancements in UT2K4 would be a neat addition. I never felt like the team you created in UT2K3 was full realized by just swapping one player for another. It would be cool to start with a selection of basic warriors, and be able to enhance their stats / look / whatever as the game progressed, as you won matches.

...Every win gives you a few experience points to toss around, like in an RPG. Nothing too indepth. The people that play UT are not looking for an RPG. But it would be neat if you could, say, alter their "jumping" or "aiming" or "speed" stats. And you could create a team of really fast players, or mix it up.

I'm looking at those shots....the last one in particular with the ship or whatever, in that article... and I wonder "where is the cool lighting?" . Shouldn't that place be a mix of blue and yellow light on the walls? -- Lighting can make or break level design.
