Huh, I'm surprised, I would have thought more people would be interested in this lol.

People are probably too flabbergasted to post.

I'm not really big into shooters, but this game does look interesting. Too bad my PC is complete ass.

I laughed at the "No free to play" screen at the end. It isn't an advertising point at all.

I loved all the points they made...though that UT Redeemer style super weapon at the end caught my interest, especially since whoever was using it got a massive amount of kills according to the kill recorder thingy on the upper left before the fade-out. I do love super weapons....mostly cause I tend to have no regard for my own safety and have no qualms about firing them point blank, makes people very cautious around me.

This should hopefully smash bad games like CoD back down into the waste bin though. I mean this, UT4, and I think maybe Blue Streak(not sure how or what it'll be yet but it sounds good-ish)?....should be enough to bring back much faster paced shooting. None of that cross platform crap, PC only, faster paced, etc.

LOL too true.

But in all seriousness, it's fine to have one or two war-themed shooters but that's LITERALLY all the market is anymore, all this aimdownsight bullshit and cross-platform for EVERY shooter means there is no more PC Master Race exclusives for twitch and skill shooting. No more days of gods with a Railgun or Shock Rifle, speed of movement, strafe jumping, rocket jumping, dodging, wall jumping, mutators, and heavily community driven designs are all gone in favor of expensive pre-made content by developers like Activision who force crappy "map packs" on people who are in the millions and so dumb they willingly churn their money out because if they don't then there won't be anyone to play with as people then play only the new maps.

And don't forget the terrible matchmaking systems like in CoD..I much rather (as would many PC players) see a whole lobby list like back in Unreal Tournament 2004 or in even something as overthetop silly as Team Fortress 2. Sure matchmaking can still exist but it's nice to just look at a list and say "I want to play THIS" and then go do it....not be another "omg this map again" because of random selection or retard voting.

And that's another thing. UT2004 came with level editor, map making tools, and the ability to make entirely new games, skins, models, textures, music implementation, and so much more, RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX...leaving the creative people in the community able to make so much custom content that was FREE to download when you went to join their lobby / server. Hell some of my favorite maps on UT were vehicle maps that were custom made, parkour before it was ever a thing mainstream but with vehicles and it was FUN. Or the often ignored Invasion game mode modified with mods for RPG stats like more health, more armor, faster firing, etc and waves of increasingly difficult mobs that eventually were custom creatures...I'll never forget the Queen mob waves or the final 3 on the server I played on Disturber Nali (fired small black-hole like projectiles), Super Shock Rifle Nali (need I say more?) and wave 25...Redeemer Nali...oh there were so many explosions ...

But that's the joy of Arena Shooters...custom content by the community, UT4 is doing this right now hell my best friend made a map and screen shared it with me on skype last night, hes trying to do a CPMA version of UT for promode playing, and I suspect Toxikk most likely will have some form of community creations as that's a big attraction.

But yeah if you wanna boil it down to "TL;DR- FILTHY CALL OF DUTY CONSOLE CASUALS, HOW DARE YOU ENJOY A DIFFERENT STYLE OF GAME FROM ME YOU FUCKING PLEBIANS. " then so be it, fuck those casuals right in their gouged out eyesockets as I out strafe and out shoot them in a real game of skill, even if Toxikk fails somehow to live up to it's promises there's still UT4 on the horizon, and with such a heavy amount of community support from the Quake 3 / UT fanbases who ensured the success of the past, I cannot see it failing.
