What's going on? UT3 doesn't have a countdown timer anymore. It's just 100% Ready like all my bought games.

Is Valve extending it or is it just a bug. Anybody else got this?

The game vanished from my view all games list. I think it has to do with people who bought it not being able to register it though.

No idea with the countdown. Hope they extend it.

It's like gears of war but only in first person without the cover system.

It's not like that at all. You can't even jump in gears and UT is all about bunnyhopping perfectly to feint your opponent into missing.

That's a hideous comparison considering Unreal Tournament and Quake have two of the greatest 'heritages' of any PC shooting game, and Gears of War in relation is a boring repetitive shitfest.

Yeah Unreal Tournament and Gears of War are about as different as you can get. Gears is slow, limited, and ultimately boring. It also singlehandedly destroyed Epic as far as I can tell.

Well the Free weekend was supposed to have ended almost an hour ago and I still can play.

Maybe Epic/Valve did extend it.

game by the way, I'd spend $12 on it.

Looks like the free weekend is over.  It says preloaded now.  Well I got to played for about  one hour.  Graphics are great, good fast pace action.  Sale ends March 15 I may have to purchase.
I wonder how many people play this still.  All of the servers I found had about 5 people in them.

To anyone who had UT3 before the update, do you feel hitscan is a little off now? It doesn't seem to predict hitscan guns anymore and updates after you fire (so you see the shock rifle fire a tiny bit after you actually fire). Anyone else finding hitscan guns like this since the update?

I noticed that even in my few games during last weekend. You had to shoot ahead with the shock rifle. Very off-putting.

Lol if they manage to fuck up hitscan gameplay in an update that's supposed to regenerate the floating duck...

Then it's bye-bye UT3, the competitive community will all mass-quit, and they were the only guys keeping it alive in the first place.
