UT2004. Do you have yours?

This morning i went into one of the bestbuy stores that released the game early. I got there 10 min before the store opened and there were about 15 people that came early to get the sepcial edition of the game. i was luck and got in first. when i went to the shelf, there were only regular edition copies. i talked to the guy working and he said that the shippment had not come in. so i got a raincheck on it and i'm just waiting for the shipment to come in.

Now on to my question. Have you gotten it yet and what do you think about it? I've been hooked on the demo and i can't stop playing.

I liked the demo too. Especially the minigame where you have to capture the missles. I play that one once a day afterschool .

I got obssesed with the demo, and I hardly run it properly. I don't see the 'special edition' being worth anything. It just comes with a few pointless extras and instead of the normal cd version, its on a dvd. But I guess its all in preference there. I also think Best Buy was giving away a logitec headset with the SE. But why get the se when u can get teh 'goty' in a few months with all the updates........ah how it pays to be patient.

the SE has a headset, dvd on making maps, and a dvd with all the game and extra levels. the SE costs as much as the regular too. i think it's worth paying $30 and then sending off a $10 rebate to atari. $20 is how much ut2003 goes for now.

well i'm back off to the demo. goodbye

I got the game, I just love it, a major improvement over the previous games, mmm, I love the Assault Mode and Onslaught is just lovely.

Now I can't afford Far Cry tho! BUuhuu!

*Takes out the Redeemer and nukes the blues power-core to hell!*

The graphics are lovely too, I can run the game with all settings on high and 1600x1200 without any major inflict of problems on the framerate(and I'm on a sucky P4 2.6 with a Radeon 9700 Pro XD)

UT2004 will definitly be in many game sites GOTY list this year I think

PS, I didn't get the SE edition, just the normal one, I suck at mapping anyway tho :P

I ordered the "Limted edition"

That one comes in an Aluminum box with a headset, 2 DVD's with....stuff, and some stickers

I'll get in next week, but I have the demo to go for so far

Do you mean that It does take less resources than UT2003? I have that one and I must say that that game takes A LOT of resources specially if you are online. I only have 256 on ram.

No, unfortunately. My computer is a piece of crap from 3 and a half years ago that won't run any recent games.

Same here. After EB had taken more pre orders than they could fill i got my 5 dolar deposit back, walked around the corner and got the last copy at another store. If you don't have the SE yet you probably won't be getting it. My only complaint with it is that the headset is just standard 1/8 inch connectors when it should have just been usb. It would have been wicked if it were set up like socom on the PS@ where all voice com comes through the usb headset and all team voice stuff through the headset.

The one I went to only had 10 copies ordered. 10?! Can you believe that? So I went somewhere else...and I jacked a salesperson's copy...the last one in the store. I wouldn't have been so mean, except that I called like 30 min beforehand to make sure they were in stock, and he was like, "Yeah, tons of them."

When I got there, I saw his mistake...there were craploads of UT 2K3. No UT2K4. His mistake led to his colleague's pain.

Yeah, I know...I went to install on my C drive, and it told me I had 4.5 GB available, so I'm thinking ok, cool...then it's like, "you do not have enough space!" That sucker's HUGE.
