My favourite game of all time and still my favourite is unreal tournament instagib mutator.
When i first got ut3, i didnt like it at all because it didnt feel the same as the previous ut's. I perservered for a couple of weeks but gave up in the end. Then a friend of mine emailed me a config file for the game with a few minor tweaks. I swapped my config file for his one, WOW it feels just like ut again, a slightly speeded up version of 2k4, but still slower than ut99.
So again im addicted 2 this one game, this one game that keeps me away from playing and completing a back catalogue of ps3, pc, wii and 360 games that is getting larger cos i love these games but not as much as UT. I wish there was like 4 hours more chill time of an evening, so i could get my daily ut dose then play my other games.
However in my opinion there are a 3 BIG flaws:
1. Game feels strange/broken (as in the aiming aspect) without multiple .cfg changes. (Could be total crap, but i think this could be something to do with the game being made for both pc and console, where the aiming apparatus is different. Maybe the deveolpers just found a middle ground that works good on both mouse and controller, but not top notch on either).
2. Previous ut's had loads of different crosshairs to choose from, this one gives you two. I have become acustomed to using the triad(3) style ccrosshair for the last 7 years and now cannot choose it. Even though i have been using the provided ut3 crosshairs for about 5 months now i still wish i could use the triad.
3. The community is DEAD, there are periods of time in the day when i cant find a game of insta being played anywhere. This may be different in the states, but here in the uk it can be difficult. (Again probably me talking crap again but, maybe this has something to do with the game feeling broken with unmodified .cfg's, im thinking maybe there were lots of people who made the transition from 2k4 to ut3 and gave up on it like me because it felt so diff to the point of ultimate fustration. Never to come back because theyve picked up cod4 or some other great games that are out bout the same time, or never knew to change certain lines in their .cfg to make it feel "right" again.
