its after the rubber duckie demo

And not the best game I have ever seen...

Crytek > Epic

Ok, and now my non-silly comment. Hard to compare Crytecks nice demo, which while a little nicer than the UE3 engine demo from 2004, it is also 2006. UT2007 has not inspired me much so I am not the fairest observer, but the guy playing really sucks!

I am too poor to own a 360... therefor I play with paper statistics. The results of my indepth scientific anaylisis determined the most important benchmark is Pi. As in The Ring of Light.

The problem of UT2007 is that its all been done before.

2006-03-23 08:50:33

That's just a circular room with a few barrels in it; I'd hardly call it UT2007.
More like a playable weapons/movement demo, with a shitty framerate.

Oh well, I guess it's better than nothing.

Anyway, one shouldn't expect massive amounts of detail everywhere in a UT game, even if it is running on a badass engine (nor should one want all that detail... it just gets in the freakin' way).

Wow...the physics completely missed that part.

2006-03-23 19:08:01

Yeah, I saw that too Wuffy.

But as Plumb said, it really is not a demo. Just a room and a gun. I am not the biggest UT2007 art fan, but the engine is solid enough and Epic makes good UT games if you like that style. I would not worry much.

Quake 4 looks better than that demo, what's the point of showing it?

2006-03-23 22:53:19

I've seen some footage of UT2007 before and I think GOW is a much better looking game.
Most people would probably disagree with me though, especially the pc-fanboys.
But seeing this game just doesn't do anything for me, whereas GOW does....

2006-03-23 23:04:55

Well, you could call me a PC fanboy, Jato, but I'd have to agree with you on the graphics.

UT series (except for the first title) was never really about pushing visual boundaries.
The game is very focused on fast paced DM style combat, and you can't have all kinds of crazy shit happening in your field of vision, or geting in your way, because the style of play is already extremely fast and sometimes confusing.
The fact that each UT game has been among the best looking titles of their time though is really attributed to the fact that Epic make and update a great engine that is usually toward the forefront of technology.

The fans already had a field day with UT2003 and it's over-the-top use of static meshes and "snaggy" architecture... something Epic (mostly) remedied in UT2004.
This series is all about gameplay, even if it doubles as an engine showcase at times.

Gears is in a different league stylistically.
It's not a fair comparison.

Still, I wish they would have went ahead with UC3 for consoles... leave the UT's on PC's.
(maybe the project is so big they just wouldn't have room for developing 3 concurrent titles; would make sense)

2006-03-23 23:13:01

I know, but I mention this cause I've heard so many times that the next-gen graphics will start with UT2007. According to some pc fanboys I personally know, GOW doesn't even come near UT 2007 graphically.
And I just can't see that...

Anyone have sales numbers on UC2? I heard it did not sell well.

Still early days for the PS3 and it's games guys. I'm sure UT 2007 will look much better in 8 months

Someone clarify.

What were they running this demo on anyway? The PS3 people are saying its the actual PS3 hardware or something.

2006-03-24 16:24:15

Its a devkit I think. And the tech demo they showed at E3 was scripted, but realtime. When you have user interaction, things get hectic.
