Shooting your friends online was never this much fun.
Capitalizing on the growing popularity of the online gaming community, Epic set forth to create what would become Unreal Tournament, an FPS geared towards online combat. This multiplayer action game spelled out what an online fragfest is all about – explosive action, balanced weaponry, dynamic teamplay, cool levels and a terrific artificial intelligence.
CTF-Face in all its glory.
Unreal Tournament (UT99) is a sequel to Epic’s Unreal, a technically imposing FPS from 1998 that served to lay the ground works for this game. UT is powered by an enhanced Unreal Engine, one that looks better, is more stable and allows for a greater amount of third party customization. This game is alive and kicking thanks to it’s huge fanbase turning in countless maps and mods even today. Best of all, UT still supports out-of-the-box online action – simply start the game, find a suitable server, connect (the program downloads all necessary third-party files) and start playing against other people.
UT isn’t solely centered on online gaming of course. There’s a solo campaign and practice modes, both played against bots. In campaign mode you work down the arena ladder and play against increasingly tougher opponents, while practice lets you play whatever you want at any time. You have many map types on offer in both modes – Deathmatch (DM), Capture the Flag (CTF), Domination (DOM), and Assault (AS).
