In these mission-like games, one team has to attempt to accomplish a set of goals (take out the gun tower, open the prison door, etc.) while the other team tries to stop them. This is a high stress game where teamwork and knowledge of the map really pays off.Īssault - Our favorite option here at IGNPC were the assault maps. When a predetermined amount of points has been reached the game ends. You capture a symbol simply by touching it, and for every second you hold it (keep the enemy from touching it) you get a point. Basically there are several symbols spread around the level that you must capture and hold.
Loads of fun.ĭomination - I got addicted to this type of game in Tribes, but it works even better here. If your flag isn't there (it's been stolen by the enemy) then you can't score until one of your team recovers it. The goal is to steal the enemy's flag and bring it back to your own. You have a base with a flag, so does the enemy. Most of these different modifiers are available for every type of gameplay, and when used in conjunction with one another, offer a nearly endless source of gameplay types.Ĭapture the Flag - Another old standby, Capture the Flag is just like the game you used to play as a kid, only this time everybody's armed to the teeth. This means that really bad players get harder and harder to hit while really good players get to be easier and easier targets. Every time he kills someone else, he gets a little bigger. In Fatboy, every time a player gets shot he gets a little skinnier. There's also a final mutator, Fatboy, which is a brilliant option that has become very popular with our crew.
In addition to the six different weapon specific Arena options that can be selected (Chainsaw Melee, Flak Arena, Pulse Arena, Rocket Launcher Arena, Shock Arena and Sniper Arena) in which players are limited to one weapon type, there are also a number of other options including InstaGib (a one-shot, one-kill mode that will make you very nervy), Instant Rockets (which disallows the grouping of rockets (I'll cover this later)), JumpMatch (where every player has GravBoots that never wear off), Low Gravity (kind of like the previous match but you fall slowly as well), No Powerups (no Damage Amplifiers here), No Redeemer ('nuff said), and stealth (all players are invisible - very weird). Since this is such a basic category, this is also an excellent place to chat for a second about all of the cool 'Mutators' that can be turned on for every game. You can either set things up so that it's every man for himself, or you can split the players up into teams and duke things out that way. Let's take a quick look at how each game works and what makes each one so much fun to play.ĭeathMatch - Okay, you should really know this one by now. The four basic games included are DeathMatch (which also includes Team DeathMatch), Domination, Capture the Flag, and Assault.
UNREAL TOURNAMENT 2018 RELEASE DATE MODS
Where most other first-person shooters release with a handful of standard deathmatch selections and ask players to start whipping out the mods themselves, UT ships with a number of cool play options each more entertaining than the next. What really makes Unreal Tournament stand out is its tremendous number of game options. Next week Tal and I will get together and put together a head-to-head comparison of the two games (after his Quake III review has gone up). I realize that this isn't going to be the most popular stance with those of you out there who are die-hard Quake fans, so let me warn you right off the bat that this is a review of Unreal Tournament, and not a comparison piece. With it's incredible game options, fantastic weapons, and matchless performance, this is the first person shooter for the next few years. Unreal Tournament is the closest thing to a flawless game I have ever played. Now, after two weeks of almost uninterrupted play (if someone figures out a way to get food delivered directly to their computer, please drop me a line) I think I may have been excited about the wrong game.
I was looking forward to Unreal Tournament, but only because I thought that it would hold me over until Quake 3's release.
