    Hehe... but I hear you, I've though about getting a UT tat for years, I should actually just do it already. I spent so much time in UT it's unbelievable.
    Pffffffft UT. Please.

    i am such a quake fan, i've thought of getting a quake 1 tattoo.... Getting more and more serious about doing it to. Quake is part of my gaming dna.
    But, i enjoy ut very much as well, i mean i own physical copies of all unreal en ut games, even ut2k3.

    Got in some game time this morning, played TDM and some DM.

    Good:
    QUAKE IS BACK!
    Renditions of older maps, feel and play so well now.
    Free to play.
    Customisation is simply cosmetic.
    Little voice lines after re-spawning are pretty nice, specially since many of them refer back to older Quake titles**
    Class based system is nice, with HP/Armor/Speed stats*

    Bad: *Class based system is a little 'iffy' at the moment, sometime champions can tank way more damage or boost damage to make one shot deadly..
    **Some voice lines can be annoying after hearing them 10 times in a row.
    System specs meet the low requirements, still lags in some places (It's a BETA)
    Zoom damage, can be deadly in long passages.

    Ugly: No Local Data centre means anything above 100 is painful to play.
    LAG is going to be the cause of 99% of your WTF Just happened deaths. I was dying in so many strange ways, simply because I was lagging too much.

    Final opinion: If we had local servers, 10/10! No servers makes it not worth getting, sadly.

    *edit* Browsed around the web a bit and it seems the Netcode is problematic.

    I played a couple of matches where my ping was around 20-30ms... Is it server based or peer to peer?

    I realised I am just too slow in my reactions to be good at twitch shooters. The gameplay is SUPER fast, and I struggle to keep up. After a while of playing I got better, but was exhausted! :P

    How did you get 20-30ms ping? I was constantly at 180-200ms. It's server based from what I can tell since it asks which server you want to connect to when it starts.

    These are the server options available to me:

    I tried the game out during last weeks Closed beta - I got 170ms +- Average while playing, didn't get a chance to play again during this new beta window. I found the duel mode to be really fun, the TDM and FFA was a bit crazy to get used to again in the few games I played.


    I may have a spare beta key if anyone is keen. I'll have to check.
