Torrent for the demo. it's about 750 megs
I have no idea what's in the demo, i'm on my last 10 minutes for the download. Maybe some of that Onslaught-style mode, deathmatch?

The demo features 3 maps and 2 game modes. Info posted from beyondunreal.com

DM-HeatRay is planned to be in the demo. It is the destroyed urban environment that features a lone DarkWalker which is dropped in at specified times during the match. The level strongly conveys a UT-like city setting (complete with the occasional train running on an overhead track) is pretty stunning.

VCTF-Suspense is the second demo map. Set on an immense suspension bridge, this level is set up with Axon vs Axon vehicles and the action takes place in three planes: on platforms high above the bridge, as well as on and under the bridge. It has a nice mix of open sniping areas and tight corridors. There's a little water there too if you care to take a dip.

The final demo map may be DM-ShangriLa. This one has been seen in some of the videos before. It features buildings with Asian-themed architecture and the action takes place around a courtyard.

I've got both a PS3 and 360, so I've got options.

Any idea what would cause the graphics to be really blurry and fuzzy? The game otherwise runs fine (great framerate on my admittedly mediocre computer), but the ingame graphics are really blurred (menues etc. are fine).

Otherwise I liked it, would definately consider buying if I can clear up the graphical issues first.

under advanced video options change res (which is at 50 right now) to 100 and fiddle around with texture and world detail for better results


Posted by Spirit5 on Oct-14-2007 17:47:

Also see if you can get into either your graphics card or the Unreal3.int or User.int (whatever it is) and try to adjust the anistrophic filtering. Make sure it's at least at 4.

Does anybody know if Epic will include the editor with U3?? Ive been scouring this whole morning for info but cant find any straight answers.... =(

This game was too fucking good. I'm hooked on the demo.


Posted by BTG on Oct-15-2007 03:39:

my computer sucks now.

i can get a good framerate, but it looks like its being recorded off a shitty webcam.

Which would you say is best for FPS games?

In this situation, it really just comes down to which controller do you prefer. Its basically a comparison between having your thumbs side by side (dual shock PS3) or having your left thumb higher than your right (360). With all the Halo playing Ive done in the past, I've become more accustomed to the 360 controller for FPS games...

But, rumors are saying that the PS3 version may be the only console version of the game that can work with the map editor. Due to Live being a closed system run strictly by Microsoft (vs. the PSN where Sony leaves it as an open platform), the 360 version may not get custom content. Pros and cons to both sides of the equation, but I do think the 360 controller is best for FPS games. Ill throw in, however, that the dual shock is my preference for any other genre.

thanks dude for the link can't for this to come out


Posted by SuspicionVandit on Oct-15-2007 21:03:

doesn't one console have official support for Keyboard+Mouse?


and I like the game so far. I'm going to have to look up console commands for network though.


Posted by Zild on Oct-15-2007 21:27:

I think the PS3 has usb ports so you can hook up a mouse and keyboard. Not sure about the Xbox, but that would be ideal if you don't have a PC.

It's a beta, so remember it's bound to have bugs.


Posted by RaverSpike on Oct-16-2007 23:42:

i ran it yesterday i have the minimum requirements i.e the viedo card, takes ages to load into the game ie the splash screen, played it for bit but then it frozze up, so can't wait to play the full game.

It's very playable on my system with an Intel QX6700 running at the default speed of 2.66 ghz (i'll probably bump it up to 2.93 ghz when I get the full version) with a GeForce 8800 Ultra. I run it fine at 1600 x 1200 with 8x Anistrophic Filtering and 16x Anti-Aliasing. Probably like 60 - 80 fps. It does drag slightly at 1920 x 120 (it might bring it down to around 50fps), but if I bring down the AA and AF it will probably run quite well at that resolution. I boosted the details to 5 as well.

So far, so good...It will probably run at 100 fps if I brought down alot of the graphical features like details and lowered the resolution even more, but around 60fps is fine with me. I play most games at 1600 x 1200 anyways. Though the older games look better at that resolution IMO. These newer ones are just screaming for super high resolutions (probably ones my monitor can't even handle, the highest it goes is 1920 x 1200).
