While speaking on what went right with the recently released Unreal Tournament 3, Epic Games President Mike Capps revealed a sentiment not at all unfamiliar to long-time UT gamers: "Unreal Tournament 2003 was a misstep."

I love UT3 and since I got the game i've been trying to sell COD4. I don't think I will stop playing UT3 until UT4 comes out.

I prefer call of duty 4. Just because I'm a realism nut. Also I've met alot of really cool people on there. :)

They said UT 2003 not UT3, 2003 did suck. Except I liked bombing run.

UT 2003 was a misstep. Unoptimized and just not fun. UT 2004 was fun, and it ran better on my computer than UT 2003.

Lightning gun did piss me off alittle bit.. But Unreal is STILL the greatest Multiplayer shooter in MY opinion

8 - External Team?
"Other than attributing the issue to the fact that the title was created mostly "by an external team," Capps diplomatically avoided specifics on what exactly went wrong. "

This is complete crud imo, DE was there since day one of Unreal. Who do they think they are?

The main problem with UT2003 was, that it simply was an unfinished version. Kinda like an UT2004 beta. considering that UT2004 came shortly after and that it was feature complete it was a bit like a ripoff. Cause i bought 2k3 naturally for modding on the engine, and voila 2k4 creeping to the light a mere year after. Boy that got me angry.
