That's a good news. Bad news - there's no a dedicated server release. Only demo. Good way to support on-line game, Epic.
UT3 Demo is OUT!
i've got to say, im not particularly impressed. Maybe b/c my card (7800GT) isn't fast enough, but I had a headache after playing. Graphics still look OK, but movement is completely different to Ut2004 and b/c the graphics didn't move as smooth as I would have liked i couldn't aim properly. ill give it some more time b4 making final judgement, but sadly, first impressions aint that good
Me likes it so far, I have the 8800GTX (AMD 4800 dual core, 2 gig ram) and the demo couldn't run any smoother... The game seems to me to be a cross between 99 and 2k4
It uses the Ageia Physics (software rendered) like MoH Airborne... I spose you could check and see if your card has a bios update for the newer shader 3.0 and the like... I just checked Nvidia's web site and on the 8 series cards these lines were writen in the tech specs:
"NVIDIA Quantum Effects™ Technology
Advanced shader processors architected for physics computation
Simulate and render physics effects on the graphics processor "
so I guess I wont be getting a physics card anytime soon
But I really do like the game, looking forwar to the final release...
I should have the LA server up in a few weeks, I'm just going to wait till the major bugs are worked out and a dedicated server is released for win 2k3 server
