This weekend on Steam.
Nice find! :D
Think this is the Steam link (steam://run/13210)
Keeps erroring with "The Steam servers are busy..try again in a few minutes.."
Great fun playing CTF in UT3. :yahoo:
Anyone one fancy a game of it tonight for old times sake :D
Hopefully this will encourage more people to pick this game up. It's a great LAN game. I've never go into the online play properly. I'm too much of a fan of the steam browser that anything else seems too much work.
For £8.39 it's very good value for money. I can't think of a non-valve game that packs such good graphics and gameplay at such a cheap price.
Still getting the Steam server too busy error :doh:

It's mainly geared towards a single player frantic deathmatch style of play - not our scene man.
And before I get shot down in flames I am aware that there are team based game types in there too.

I figured that. Which is why I said it's more of a lan game.

Still good fun though, having a frantic fragfest? :D

Indeed. And as Lee has said a great blast at the LAN. Unfortunately there's no spare time slots to fit it in officially at the LAN anymore but there has been the odd adhoc game going in the past ... usually very early in the morning :D
It is unfortunate that some only have that view of UT. The teambased side of UT requires advanced tactics and teamplay. Try playing a clan match in TDM and you would see it.
It as at least as Team based as COD 4 is, just a little quicker......:norty:
Maybe we're a little too old for this faster game type? :taz:
Jabbs keep a civil tounge in your head mate!!! Love this game and it is a shame we dont but I understand why. Well up for a couple of rounds at the LAN though!!

Lol I should speak for myself I guess :g:
Downloading finally, but at 51KB/s 1% after an hour or so :sideways:
'Epic' Fail.
They really should have announced the FREE weekend a couple of weeks ago to give us a chance to download it! :doh:

Agreed. I gave up yesterday. Its a shame really as those who are downloading the game for the free weekend surely are adversely impacting on the steam servers bandwidth for paid users. Maybe its time for them to do some upgrading and put more time and money into their distribution network.
Nice try from Steam but ultimately a fail!!!
Only just been able to get decent download speeds, mind you I haven't been trying that hard to get it after reading others posts on the steam forums!!
satrted the dload friday --- it finished this morning along with the offer :doh: its now £9 :lmfao:
