Rein: PS3 *DOES NOT* have enough resources for all UT3 maps

Mark Rein said that they are shooting for a November release and did say that the PS3 version would have "most" of the content that would be found in its PC brother. He said that there would be a couple of maps that would be left out of the PS3 version simply because the system didn't have the resources to produce a smooth gameplay experience.IGN

Hmmmm.....lack of RAM much? :lol:

Well...I wouldn't expect it to be lack of CPU power. Ram is probably a likely candidate. I wonder what will happen to the 360 version? :?

bu..bu..but UT3 better on PS3 :cry:

bu..bu..but UT3 comes later on 360 :cry:

I told you this game will be downgraded on PS3.

That doesn't matter to cow though because they can always INSTALL 5-10GB on to their HDD to increase the loading time. :lol:

I would agree it is most likely ram. For the 360 (& PS3 as well) dl maps?

i have been saying that since the beginning. the ps3 has severe ram limitations. i knew it would come into play heavily is user made content. that the ps3 cant even handel the content on the pc dvd9 retail disk is a bit worse than i expected tho. what really suprised me was the last paragraph. the cows have been bragging about being able to play user made maps and mods just like the pc. while i knew it would be like the pc because they would be able to play damned few of them, i didn't know they were going to have to pay for them. they have to buy what is free on the pc.

"Rein even told us that there were plans to allow for players to release mods for sale on the Playstation Network and that the most popular mods and maps would be compiled and sold in an updated Unreal Tournament 3 package later down the line. We'll have much more on Unreal Tournament 3 as its holiday release date draws closer."

by the way that "updated package down the line" would be the 360 version. the content will be free on the pc and 360 it seems while the cows get milked.

UT3 will be great on the 360 and will be the game I'm expecting considering the 360's only limitation. Cows on the other hand have been bragging for months that the PS3 version will be identicle (some said even better) to the PC version simply because it supports KB/M and they honestly feel that the PS3 is more powerful than top tier PC's..

unreal tournament 3 on xbox360 will have more maps hahahaha

You're assuming that the 360 has enough free ram to get the job done here (presuming video ram is the issue). It may not either.

In the article it says some UT3 maps willl not be included on the PS3 version. Seriously do you really think EPIC will iclude the 64 player maps for the PS3 when they know PS3 doesnt support? Simple Logic.

UT3 will be best on 360.AscendancyTR

HEEEEEEELL NO!.

PC >>>>>>>>>> PS3 and 360.

UT3 will be best on 360.AscendancyTR

Ummm, OK. That article was not commenting on the 360 version. Also, if the PS3 lacks resources, don't you think it will also apply to the 360? Maybe not the same resources, but both consoles are within the same "resource band". PCs, on the other hand, are assured at having the best version.

Because the console market is where the money is...theres very little piracy, and the industry is simple with the consoles compared to the PC...

Casuals dontbuy PC games anymore, they buy a Wii, or a slightly bigger casual will get a 360 or PS3....

PC gaming is having its last run as far as being all "EXCLUSIVE" with great games and such, games are now PC/360, and that sucks for hermits but thats the way its going to be

R-Dot-Yung

WAIT WHAT?! the ps3 has less resources than the computors?! surely you kid!! but what in the hell are lems doing in this thread? there is no 'ownage' for you here! shoo with you! if this article actually mention f'all about the 360 version you could all rub your groinswithdelight and shout "PAWNAGE" at the mountains, fanboy style!shivaskunk9mm

you just don't get it, do you? As lemmings, we've accepted that there would be a few games where the DVD9 limitation would deliver a serious blow to SOME developers. Cows on the other hand refuse to believe that there could be ANYTHING that could be considered a limitation with the PS3. This is MASSIVE COW OWNAGE and only the cows will deny it. This is just the begining of games having to be downgraded for the PS3 simply because Sony didn't give devs enough RAM to work with.

I'm asking you where you read that it was the 64-player maps that they're not including. You are specific in your accusation that it's the 64-player maps. Where did you read that? It doesn't say that in the article.

Furthermore, yes it is reasonable to include even large-scale maps. Have you ever played a UT game? rooms are almost NEVER full. Doesn't make any maps less playable; just makes them roomier. :)

xbox360 has unified 512 mb

ps3 has split 256 + 256 mb sticks

xbox360 gives devs more free to use ram where they need it.

Damage control? Thats just specualtion, the same as how somehow Killzone 2 was pre-pre alpha yet playable... Except the Killzone 2 thing didnt even make sense http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle

Not oing to engage in a cost of gaming discussion. Simple fact is you can spend about $900 on a PC and be set to play UT3, Crysis and others. Only a couple hundred more.

PC gaming is not $2000 dollars.

Dunno. I'm not a dev, my friend. If it is ram, perhaps both consoles will be limited in this way.

rdo

What are you talking about? They always sold the top mods in a compilation pack. dont try to talk about something you don't know about. A pc can have a lot more ram than a xbox 360 and a ps3. I have 4gbs of ram on my pc my xbox 360 only has 512...its not gonna be able to run a lot of mods either smart guy.

You cant pirate hardware...unless you physically steal the things from warehouses

Casuals go to Pogo or that crap, they arent purchasing nVidia's brand new video card from newegg to play UT3 and dont even argue that they are...

World in Conflict, while best on PC, is also on the 360...

Microsoft whips out the cash, the devs cough it up and develop PC/360 games, thats how its gonna be, i dont expect to see many PC exclusive games this gen

I KNEW it all along.

limited 256 texture ram am cry:cry:

Low l2 cache bottlenecked Cel am Cry:cry:

True. Very true.

How long before we get the "Epic are lazy devs because they cant program for the ps3" threads?kevy619

No i think this is the one that Cows will give up and not fight. They know this was the PS3 flagship and now the PS3 is ahh Struggling. They want to leave this alone i bet. Becuase if the 360 version comes out and is better it's XX2 OWNAGE on the Cows. So they will run from this one and hope it is sweep under the rug

Dreams Visions, I'm disappointed in you. First, you post an article without a direct quote from the dev. Does it make it false, not exactly. But it sure doesn't put a whole lot a validity in it either. Second, you post this article without knowing any of the details. What's being left out? Why?

Come on, dude. You know better than this.
