Unreal Tounament 3

alright for all of you that have played unreal before this one is a tad bit different as far as abilities and guns go... first off the old way of obtaining power ups like berserker and speed and what not has changed to your typical fps power up pick up scheme... boring IMO but whatever it works...

secondly some of the weapons functions and abilities have changed... if you recall the impact hammer the alternate fire has changed into an EMP punch thing (due to the addition of vehicles, but im getting there), next the pistol is now able to be dual wielded, so combine that with the semi-automatic fire and its GG... bio-rifle is the same, chain gun is the same for the most part only with the alternate fire you can now pin people against walls and it has a knockback... rocket launcher is the same, shockrifle is the same, sniper = same... hmmm im pretty sure the rest of the weapons are the same...

the other huge addition to this game were the vehicles... this allows the game to have a whole other aspect and almost gives it a halo sort of feel (but much faster paced)... vehicles include your typical tank type, low armor apc, a compact hoverboard (in exchange for the translocator in certain game types) and a few others....

the game also includes the engine modifier, so players can also design models and maps, and even complete modifications of games style.

the only issues ive come into contact with so far are the need for a powerful machine to play the game... my specs are

2.04ghz core duo 2
geforce 7600gtx go
2gb ddr2
10krpm 80gb hdd
vista

im forced to run the game at a medium to low rez with medium texture settings to have it run smoothly without hardware lag

the other issue im hoping will be resolved with this patch im downloading but online play has been gimped due to some extreme server lag when it comes to game play (communication doesnt lag for some reason)... sooo hopefully 1.1 will fix this shast so i can play online

Intro

alright figure i'd pop something on here for an intro to myself and what not...

im Myke Czumak aka Myke, Coozmak, Coozy and various other derivatives from my last name


i am not originally from south carolina, but was born in new york and moved to charleston when i was 5. from there i moved to boston when i was 11 and then to greenville, sc when i was 15.

my interests are a broad topic... i have interests that typically clash with one another... say sports and hobby games for instance... lol... i'd go to football practice and come home and build tables for various hobby games i played...

im also an avid gamer... pc/xbox/wii... pretty much anything... game genres include just about everything but favorites are any sort of RPG (online included), adventure and FPS... im currently juggling WoW (i hate the fucking game, yet i play... go figure), call of duty 4, and now unreal tournament 3...

in addition to sports and gaming, i also do photography, film, and music... most notable work i have done with film was work some camera assistant and camera for a few scenes in the feature film Elizabeth Gunness ... it was a film my teacher shot immediately following my graduation in '04... as for music i currently play guitar and bass, and im learning violin...

i suppose this is decent enough for an intro... enjoi
