Each map has a fly-through tutorial (a kind of voiced walkthrough) for complete newcomers, while bloody great arrows point you in the right direction during the game. 'But without losing a sense of focus.'A host of new devices have also been introduced to make Assault as accessible as possible. 'We’ve worked hard to make Assault play longer and cooler.' says Jay. In some maps you can create forward spawn points, as in Enemy Territory. It allows the attacking team to float in through air-ducts as well as streaming down the catwalks, and a stack of conveniently placed crates starts to drift around as well.

'There were 37 maps in UT2003' enthuses Epic vice president Mark Rein.Įach of the levels also has one or more secondary objectives. There’s depth and girth here to make any pomstar proud.We met up with Epic Games this month to play the new game and chat with the lads, who were extremely excited about their big new package.

Game modes now take in Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, CTF, Domination, Bombing Run, Mutant, Last Man Standing, Assault and the new Onslaught, along with countless mutators, variations and fan-created mods. Add to this all the existing content from UT2003 and the various upgrade packs, and suddenly you have an all-you-can-eat FPS buffet of extraordinary proportions.

At the same time, the game bolsters its support for all the established fan favourites, offering a shedload of new maps, character models, skins and gameplay tweaks.

UT2004 is hoping to outgun the likes of Battlefield 1942 and PlanetSide and ride the trend of large-scale teambased gaming. Extending its remit to include vehicles and new teamplay modes. UT2004 is set to be the most complete multiplayer shooter package ever assembled.
