Mark Rein confirms mods will be coming to Unreal Tournament 3 on 360
186
Talking to OXM at the Midway Gamers Day in Las Vegas, Epic president Mark Rein confirmed that the best mods will be available to players of the Xbox 360 version of Unreal Tournament 3, although details are still being worked out. "We know some of these great mods are going to play a role on Xbox 360, even if we have to get some people and bring them over ourselves," he said. "We'll figure it out."

1.1 - err firstly i got vf5 brilliant game. Playing online is immense .
so smooth just like doa4 only a few occasions have i experience lag when playing people in japan. I hope tekken 6 will be as good exp online.
Secondly this is great news i was so hoping that mods would be announced. Well done epic for coming up with a solution and not forsaking your fans that own 360's.
Split screen and mods who would have thought it? sweet.

1.2 - Probably not full-blown open mod support like PS3...
I kinda wonder what will be the extent of the selection mods that will be distributed through XBL. Could just be a couple of the major mods that don't violate any copyright regulations. I guess it would be a no-go and a big no-no to Microsoft/Epic to being able to play as Solid Snake or MC or any other unnofficial game character in the 360 version, or whatever mods that contain copyrighted stuff.

Not probably statix. No mod support period. Their plan is to track down the best mods and make it available thru xbox live. I wonder if they will charge for them i truly hope not. Anyways the mods won't be as much as ps3 since it is not real mod support but it is better than nothing.
Sorry to sound so negative guys but this still isn't mod support but great job on epics part though for making those mods available. Already have it on ps3 so this news doesn't really affect me. Great job on epics part though. Lets just wait and see how much mod support 360 version will get

Mark is using the 360 fanboys to help sell his game.
Pulling their little strings with comments like....it's gonna look a little better, we promise. Now it's, ummm...yeah, were going to try to put mods up...somehow. Even though it impossible to keep up with the scene considering all the red tape (ie certification and such) they have to go through for any type of addon pack.
He'll saying anything to get them worked up and its sad that allot of them will fall for it.

People just do not get it. The 360 won't get most of the mods at all. Mark says they are coming but they are still trying to work the issue with MS. They haven't had a lot of luck there.
Remember when CliffyB said he wanted the Gears map pack to be free. Was it? Yes...after what, 6 months or so. You paid to get it when it mattered. If I were people I would save this page so you can remember some of the comments certain people here were stupid enough to make. It is going to come back and bite them in their dumb ass.
I read a comment by theMart, er, I mean Jason360 that said he could make mods and upload them to his 360. NO YOU CAN'T.
We read the article. You just do not know how mod support works. You can't upload mods to your 360 from your PC. You are going to have to get them over Live. MS isn't going to allow you to do what PS3 and PC owners can do. What part of that simple equation can you not grasp? Mod support isn't truly in the 360 version. What you are getting is no different than anything else you download as an add on for a 360 title...like Horse Armor.
Mod support is about free architecture and the 360 isn't getting that.

Well, these mods won't come with the game. Becuase then you'd be paying for it. And that would be illegal.
It sounds like they are actually goign to hire soem of the mod creators to help them, becuase then he says "even if we have to get some people and bring them over ourselves".

the fact that Epic are using this as a solution is commendable. I am cynical as well as to how they will manage to update this regularly as the mod scene progresses. I suppose we will see how it goes

And the support of MS is damnable. Microsoft touted user created content before the 360 launch. I have over 70 maps on the PS3. This is 360 owners getting less than they should. Far less.

2.10 - @Jason 360
No one knows the extent of the "mod support" in the 360 version, but I highly doubt it will be the same as the open architecture and system as the PS3 version, where anyone can download and install any mod they want. The mods have to be officially approved, sanctioned, and processed/reprogrammed by both Epic AND Microsoft's certification process before they can be distributed through XBL, which means you can say goodbye to playing with copyrighted assets/alternate game characters, or goodbye to some of the smaller, more obscure mods.
This is definitely not full-blown mod support like the PS3, for sure. This is more like Epic doing a favor to the disadvantaged 360 fans by porting a couple of the more major, popular mods that exist out there.
EDIT: And don't phantom-disagree with me just because I actually read the article, put up an informed, corroborated argument, and proved you wrong. You know who you are.

Seriously, the inconsistency is ridiculous. I could quote that UTIII "sucks" or "we'll be playing gears 2 instead" back when it first came out on the PS3. But now it comes out on the 360 all I see is "Yay, we have mods, splitscreen, and better graphics!"
I thought no one cared about UT III? I thought mods didn't matter? I thought all that was wanted was "5 official epic made" maps?"

So it took them 8 months to get the feature...and whats your point again? Mark Rein is just trying give 360 owners a reason to buy a game PS3 owners have enjoyed months ago.

5 - On the Mod issue, I wrote earlier
Now I understand Unreal with Mod support has been sweet because
of the "open" architecture of the PC and now the PS3, but sheesh, when you look at it, every "shooter" could implement Mod support if they wanted to, but we still buy other shooters, that have "limited Maps", as well as "DLC maps" so "not worth buying" is ludicrous. You can still enjoy the game, just as any other shooter.
Does that mean if it had Mod support, PS3 fans would be praising it? Knowing it will look more polished + Mods? I doubt it, there would be some other sh^t to whine about or downplay.
So why does it matter, really, PS3 fans already have and played this game. Well I heard, hardly anyone playing it much online though.
I hear it all the time, if this game was to debut on the 360 first and the PC, we would of heard the "I'm getting it for PC, as it will be the best version". I rarely see 360 fans that said, "I'm getting it on the PC instead", when it came out for the PS3 and PC platform. There is always a reason why one would pick the PS3 version of a multi-plat game, even if the 360 version was superior in any way.
Perfect Example: Vip3r 2.3 - But no keyboard and mouse support. :)
Personally, I've taken a break from shooters. Been playing XBL + PSN games and RPG's. Waiting for fighters and probably NG2.

Thing is, at is core UT is really a pretty shallow game experience. It's the mods that give it longevity and life. I'm not sure what you guys think are capable with mods, its not just maps or new cheats. It really is limitless, in theory, if you were good enough (say as good as Epic o_O), you could create Gears of War from the SDK.

main fault with your argument is: hardly any "exclusive" games for the PS3 release on PC, ever.
Compared to most of the Xbox360 "exclusives" like Gears of war and Halo or Bioshock which released on PC shortly after their console debut or at the same time so far... That reduces the incentive to buy the system cause you can get the games on the PC you already have anyways.
Compared to the way exclusives are KEPT exclusive to the Playstation you will just have to buy the PS3 to play these games. You won't get FinalFantasy 13 on PC, you won't get MetalGearSolid4 on PC, you did not get Singstar on the PC, neither Resistance or Ratchet and Clank or Uncharted.
PS3 exclusives are real exclusive, you have to buy the system to get them, not only 'first' but at all.
And the typical fanboy point following that would be: but but but they are "timed exclusive" or "console exclusive" while both are laughable at best. Something is either EXCLUSIVE, or it is not. And if its on PC and xbox or PC and PS3 its not exclusive, its multiplatform :p There is no "little bit exclusive" like there is no "a little bit pregnant"
PS: that does not say that multiplatform games can't be good, quite contrary Gears of War was pretty good as was prolly Halo2 and Mass Effect (have not played either so i won't make any judgments here but people say they are good and reviews do, too). Its just that these fail as "system sellers" cause you don't need the system to play them ;)
And i wouldn't say people would buy the PC version over the console version if they own the console, but if they don't they neither need to buy the system to play, thats the point ...

GTA is probably trying to be as realistic as possible. So stuff like low gravity or space weapons shouldn't exist... not even in mods.

I'm just talking about this game, don't give a hoot about other PS3 Exclusitivty. That's another Topic.
I'm not gonna analyze every situation and every game. The PS3 doe snot share the same Architecture as the PC and Sony is not pushing Games for Windows Live initiative. We know this.
I guess this is one of the Exceptions, where it hits the PC and PS3, so thats that.

6.1 - Good question.
That's probably a difficult answer. Common sense says yes, from past experience with Gears maps Epic wanted to make free. They started at a Fee, but went free later. If MS could force the hand and make us pay for a map pack that Epic made, would Sony follow suit? Or would Epic say "Well, they have to pay for it, so you do too PSN"? Then the PC would be the only choice for free mods from Epic.

6.2 - I see what you're saying but...
At the moment, the PSN offers an open network where user created mods are free just as they are on the PC and due to MS's closed network, they have the power to force developers to charge for DLC. It seems to be a way for MS to make the buck even if the developer keeps the price low and refuses a profit at the expense of their fan base. I do wonder if it is the closed network that forces this and that we see how the open network of the PSN allows for more generous devs to keep the extra content free. In reality, the PSN doesn't have much to do with the mods for the PS3 version as they are all able to be downloaded on your PC then uploaded to your PS3 circumventing the network all together. No need to download them through the Sony PSN so no work on Sony's part thus they are free.

I guess what I was referring to was the downloaded pack released 3 weeks ago (or so). Epic remade some of their old maps and released them free on PSN. If they do this on Live, would it be free there too? If not, would Epic start to charge for their own content, not the user generated content.

Exactly Scott. These idiots do not realize they will not get an inkling of what is available. They are so stupid they have not bothered to look at how the mods work, or considered the fact they are at the whim of someone else.
It's laughable and just another case of MS screwing customers while some of those custoers laugh and smile and ask MS to keep shafting them.

You're delusional. Putting these mods on the Xbox 360 isnt a technical problem. Every word on the matter has always been "we need to work out how, because we want to maintain high reliability and security for the consoles and LIVE".
They dont want rampant cheating and security threats -- AND NEITHER DO I.
It would be *TRIVIALLY* easy to write a mod that launched a DDoS (or other disaster) to some kind of trigger. How about writing random garbage to your EEPROMS?
I dont want that junk on my console. I have the ability to restatge my PC, so I'm not worried about such things on my PC, but a console is *not* a PC.
All that said -- MS isnt screwing anyone. They're using their heads, Sony is going to get kicked in the balls for this and when they do, I expect *YOU* back here saying how MS was right all along.

Don't worry Pain. The bots are the same morons that were slobbering to get MGS4 on the 360. When common sense and repeated slapping by the facts began to make them understand it wasn't happening, they start attacking that game.
Now they are getting a title they once attacked when it came out. Funny how their tune changes. Talk about being two faced. They also understand nothing about PS3 security. They are immediately spooked by anything some MS rep has to say. ESPECIALLY WHEN THAT BS EXCUSE IS FOR NOT DOING SOMETHING THEY PROMISED BEFORE THE 360 EVER LAUNCHED.
One of the reasons I picked up a launch 360 was to get this wonderful feature MS was bragging about. User created content. Has it happend? No. Now what will they get. A few maps and mutators that MS selects for them? That isn't a piss in the bucket compared to what we run now on the PS3. We have so many maps we do not even play the ones that came boxed with the game. And you can forget about skins that MS deems to be not to their liking either. The mutators we use most often didn't come with the game either.

1.11 - THERE ARE NO MODS!!!
For the very last time, THERE ARE NO MODS IN THE XB360 VERSION. If you would actually READ what Mark Rein is saying, and read the damn article, you'd realize that what he meant by "mods" is that they couldn't get Microsoft to allow the XB360 owners to freely install any mods they download, so they're doing a favor to the 360 fans by personally PORTING a COUPLE of the more popular mods themselves, by hand, and distributing them through XBL as downloadable add-ons (possibly for a price).
You people just DON'T GET IT: There are NO MODS FOR THE 360 version. What you'll basically end up getting, according to the words of Mark Rein, is probably around 5-6 extra game modes or so, and a couple new maps. This is compared to the 2000+ mods, maps, and characters that are available for free to the PS3 version of the game.
THERE ARE NO MODS ON THE 360 VERSION. Sorry to break it to the dyslexic 360 fans out there.

Not really. PS3 owners get to make their own and there are already tons of maps and characters available for free. 360 owners have to wait to see what epic decides to release. Not the same at all. You can also kiss any new characters goodbye because they wouldn't be allowed to release copy-righted characters through live.

You guys are funny as hell :)
Either you didnt read it, or didnt understand it. You do not get mod support, you'll get a few popular mods that MS approve and then place on Live (hopefully still for free). You will not be able to DL any of the thousands of MoDs online at your preference.
I'm sure I even remember some of you writing "who cares about UT anyway" back when it was released on PC/PS, strange that.

Its kinda funny you two refuse to recognize what you just read.
Epic has just told you, "We know some of these great mods are going to play a role on Xbox 360, even if we have to get some people and bring them over ourselves," he said. "We'll figure it out."
So, it looks like Epic (and/or Midway and the LIVE people) will be providing the compiled Mods.
I think Xbox 360 owners will be *VERY* happy to know that their is some kind of security/quality control -- and they'll be happy to get the top X% of worthwhile mods.
In actuality, the Xbox 360 owners are getting the *BETTER* mod support. The PS3 owner is left to wonder about what kind of security risk or possible danger to his PS3 he's getting from some random mod.
While the Xbox 360 owner will be getting professional quality / security control distribution channel for his mods. Epic/Midway could set-up a nice Forge-Halo 3 bungie.net portal for Xbox 360 owners to review the mods, perhaps allowing for Download from the Web. Or, they could just deliver them in-game via the regular DLC method. Very nice, very elegant - no BS. Clean, quick, good.
In fact UT3 PS3 mods is a mis-mash mess of cruft, and the Xbox 360 will be getting the worthwhile mods with confidence for their security/quality.
PS3 UT3 mods < Xbox 360 UT3 mods.
PS3 UT3 "out of the box" < Xbox 360 UT3 "out of the box".

...NEVER had nothing to do with GTA4. Get it into you heads lemmings, your SECOND CLASS TRASH!
I've had all the UT versions (PC and Xbox) since 1999 and now I WILL be pre-ordering this one!
@those that are saying we aren't getting FULL mod support, there are no shortages of FPS on the Xbox360, SOME are better then NONE, we will be getting the best ones, and M$ will make sure they are SAFE and WORKING PROPERLY! The very fact that we ARE getting user made mods is a BIG WIN! we can all make maps on our pc's. Now Back to my TIMED EXCLUSIVE COD4 NEW MAPS!!! -Snitches!

How do you like Virtua Fighter 5 Online? Oh, you dont. How about the Oblivion Expansions? Oh, did you know the last one was free for Xbox 360 owners? There are *dozens* of other instances. Ace Combat 6? Eternal Sonata? Fcuk, those last two are _Japanese_ games!
By the time PS3 gets up to speed and is remotely worthwhile to own, they'll be giving out BluRay players free with cellphone purchases.
Face it, you guys got snookered for Sony's MPAA division. Sony doesnt care about games, they care about preserving their DVD-sales revenue.

YOU ARENT GETTING ANY MOD SUPPORT. YOU ARE GETTING A FEW POPULAR MODS AS A DIRECT DOWNLOAD BY EPIC.
There is a big difference between the two.
PS3 has a shiatlod of MODS at the moment. You are getting a few out of that shiatload. DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW, RETARDED XBOT.

They want to take Mark Riens word that it looks better then the PS3 version. What they dont realize is this dude is just trying to sell his game. He knows the small market share MS has really bites hard on "are game looks better" talking points

"He knows the small market share MS has really bites hard on "are game looks better"
Wow, what colour is the sky on Planet Stupid?
Last time I checked, 10M PS3s was much less than 18M Xbox 360s.
*AND* As for marketshare, well, the Xbox 360 has the HIGHEST ATTACH RATE in HISTORY.
You know how many copies of UT3 Epic sold on PS3? 410,000. Can you imagine that?
UT3 on PS3 is 30th on the list of top selling PS3 games, with 410,000 copies.
If a Game sold 410k on Xbox 360, it would be *82nd* in the sales list.
Turok, F.E.A.R., Scene It?, Condemned, The Darkness, EA NBA 08 LIVE **ALL OUTSOLD*** UT3 on PS3.
What does that tell you about "marketshare".
The fact is that the PS3 is SOLIDLY in last place the world over, and the games just arent selling.
There are more people paying for the premier Online Service Xbox LIVE than there are PS3s on the planet FFS.
IN NO WAY can PS3 be considered a leader in the marketplace. When this generation is over, the PS3 is going to become a cast-study in failure. From 1st straight to last. Utter failure.

Mark Rein: "We know SOME of these great mods are going to play a role on Xbox 360, even IF WE have to get some people and bring them over ourselves," he said. "We'll figure it out."
So where did it say you can make a mod on your PC and port it over to the 360? On the contrary my stupid xbot friend. Rein pretty much confirms here that there is no mod support and that EPIC is uploading some of these mods on XBOX LIVE so you stupid xbots can enjoy 1/10th of the game us PS3 owners have been enjoying since december.

Here let me use some pop up books, and some finger paints to paint you a picture.
"So where did it say you can make a mod on your PC and port it over to the 360?"
How else are the mods going to get to the 360 or PS3, other than using PC? Can we magically sh!t mods from our asses, then get them on a console? What if we use fairy dust and sprinkle the mods on the console? Better yet lets teleport the mods there, or use a black hole generator or gravity gun. No......? well then I guess I'll just have to use a PC.
"even IF WE have to get some people and bring them over ourselves"
That means they will get the mods on the marketplace for people to download and play using the copy of UT3 they purchased, "somehow".
I even used the quote you put up, thats right "you" put it there and you still don't f*cking get it.
