Ok,, what's the deal with UT2004? The programmers are still dealing with a demo for 2003 for Mac,, Quit wasting your time with the mac users and hurry up with 2004!!

Amen to that, if the mac users want the games, get a PC, and use your mac for other purposes besides games.

11/18/03 + (2 weeks * infinity) = When it's done!

Two weeks.

Are there plans to release a demo before the game is shipped? I'm doubting they have plans for a demo, since the change from 2k3 to 2k4 isn't really that drastic. ..?..

We all know that silly!
But the point of having a demo is so that we can do:

The Wait! 2k4!!!!!!

Give feed back to Epic and DE

eXpendabLe · 07-22-2003, 06:28 PM

All you guys in the UT2004 War Room, keep up the good work!

That was a serious question actually. (followed by my guess at the answer)

Has Epic or Atari said anything regarding a 2k4 demo?

07-22-2003, 09:52 PM

I'd expect a demo around Nov. 16 with the game going gold Nov. 17 and then being shipped on Nov. 18 with orange manuals assuming that ETA is correct.

Don't forget paper packaging.

Speaking of which, I wonder if Epic will reinstate CD Protection. It's a bummer if they do, CD protection only hurts the end *legitimate* user. People who steal the game don't care either way, its just another patch to apply.

The Mac Full Game went gold almost 2 months ago and has been available. Nice catch though.

God forbid they want to finish the Mac version and try to get MORE people into the community. WE LOVE ALL THE SERVERS EMPTY.

Nothing to do with Epic, that's Atari's business...

I guarantee UT2k4 will start off with CD Protection, these big publishers just can't be bothered to spend the money to build better copy protection measures.

Folks,

There will be a UT2004 demo.

Mac development doesn't affect 2004 in any way.

How many people actually use a MAC to play UT 2003? 3 or 4 at the most.

Besides why spend so much time working on the MAC version when MAC's only make up about 3-4 % marketshare?

Thank God!!

How about a DVD instead of CD's?

I miss all the hullabaloo around here when the demo for UT2K3 was about to be released, especially the 'Give us Teh Dem0' thread. Fun stuff. Here's what I posted last time:
