Unreal Tournament 2004 is a multiplayer first person shooter that combines the kill-or-be-killed experience of gladiatorial combat with cutting-edge technology. Ten game modes - both team-based and "every man for himself" -- provide even the most hardcore gamer with palm-sweating challenges through unbelievably detailed indoor arenas and vast outdoor environments. As the ultimate techno-gladiator of the future, players will take their fates into their hands, battling against up to 32 other players online in action-packed, frag-filled arenas.

holy s***, when you maxed out your voodoo 2/3 :smiley:
DRM: Other DRM - So not a Steam key? Will it still use the same multiplayer servers as the Steam version so everyone can play together?
Nothing will beat the feeling of playing UT99 for the first time - I never understood how people could prefer Quake III - or the gritty tone of the original game, but UT2004 really was the pinnacle of the series. I remember being really impressed with the new engine in UT2003 but the game itself was a bit of a misstep - then they fixed everything with UT2004, responding to community feedback like no other developer I've ever seen, even incorporating fan made maps into official map packs. I lost many hours to this game back in the day - and I just bought Rocket League last week after becoming addicted to it over the free weekend and was not surprised to find out that its developer, Psyonix, also worked on UT2004.
TNT2 FTW! I actually still have my 32mb one somewhere - although, trust me, it will not run this. I think I was rocking a GeForce 4 Ti 4600 by the time UT2004 came out.

Excellent price for this game, I remember buying this for £20 off Play when it was on offer.
Although it felt a bit flat for me compared to UT99, which the new UT Beta seems to have rekindled that spirit that made the original so great.

Ut99 was the best game ever for me, made some really good friends on there. Heated for price but not my favourite in the series

Not natively.
But using this would work. You'll need a Windows license too, but if you PM me I'll tell you where you can get one for around £10.

This is a serious bargain, despite the fact this game has been going for over 12 years, there's still plenty of online action with people still authoring brand new maps and vehicles.
There's several game types, deathmatch, capture the flag, onslaught, invasion, freon, +more
You can play individually or as part of a team, on foot or in vehicles
Highly recommended, well l would I've been playing it since the start ! :sunglasses:
Mmmmmmm monster kill :laughing:

I had an Radeon 9600 XT back in 2003/2004. Mostly because it included Half Life 2 in the box, little did we know it wouldn't actually come out for another full year!
I do not miss how loud gaming rigs used to be back then.

Fun fact - Psyonix worked on the vehicles for UT2004 as you know. I was an active part of one of the most popular UT2004 mods made - Carball.
Take a look at Carball and tell me what you think it looks like :wink:

I really really really loved playing onslaught in ut2k4 and wish I could get a similar experience in something modern without all the loadouts. Are there still onslaught games going in 2k4?

Yes loads, I play this, the most popular server is in America - omnipotents, it's very well used
Great game, although I was always a QIII fan, but enjoyed this. Added benefit that you don't need a monster PC to run. Have some retro heat :sunglasses:

I actually just learned about this last week - got addicted to Rocket League over the free weekend, bought it and have been playing it with a couple of friends almost every night since. Went to look up Psyonix to see what else they had made and saw they worked on UT2004 and immediately thought 'Oh, that makes sense, they must have done the vehicles!'

CTF-Face classic is still the best CTF map for me. I'm so glad they bought it back into the beta!

Bought it when it first came out... lost the CDkey 6 years a go and haven't played since... until now!! thanks OP :smiley:

Absolutely; but a massive cowinkydink that RL is pretty much identical to Carball. They deny having any knowledge of Carball, however they actively played Deathball (a competitor to Carball and both communities knew of each other) and created the vehicles. Likely story.
Not that I'm bitter or anything :stuck_out_tongue:

The Australian version of this came with an excellent DVD course on how to use the level editor.

The original '99 UT was the best one. They seemingly haven't been able to recreate it.
