Part 1..
Hello there, so, recently I have played Unreal Tournament III, my brother had asked me to, so I did.. 2 days have I played it, my 2 days that I had break. I have got to say, this is one kick-a** game...

The Game Unreal Tournament III starts in a time of Warfare and slaughter. In the far future of space travel and biologic advancement. Starting on Earth, you are part of this elite specials ops. team. Sadly you, (Reaper) have gotten your parents killed and their village burned by Akasha, a Necris leader.

So you and the Ronin team, which are the special ops. go to headquarters of the alliance, kind of, and you speak with Malcolm, he is a M***** F***** you don't know why yet, because you haven't finished the campaign, but I have...

So you embark your journey from several training sessions to major wars..

Part 2
Anyways, this game is a first person shooter, using the highest quality Unreal Engine 3, with8 amazing dynamics, beating oblivion, like over a million single polygons in a creature, and amazing views overall.

Unreal Engine III

Intensely real gameplay, you move as normal, and have a list of weapons..

1.) Rocketlauncher - Pretty fricking amazing gun, it is what it is.. does what it is meant to do, major splash, damage, and cause hell.

It has a normal fire of 1 missile, secondary fire of a constant charge of up to 3 missles in either normal shot, locked to enemy shot, spiral shot, or bomb shot.

2.) Flak Cannon - My favorite gun, this gun shoot like 10 firecrackers that basically explode your enemy, they bounce of walls, and ground, but when close range to an enemy, boom, they explode one shot one kill.

First fire shots 10 flaks, secondary shoots a bomb that explodes into 10.

These are just some of the weapons.. there are much more.. like the bio-rifle, stinger, enforcer, impact hammer, link gun.. Redeemer...

Now comes to types of play.

Well, there are 6 for now, though they have promised more as they patch the game soon.

Deathmatch - Just a free for, all shoot off, with as many players as you want.
Featuring all guns, and no vehicles.

Team Deathmatch - Same, but you play team on team.

Capture the Flag - Basically like what the normal game is, but you dont win by killing, but by getting the enemy flag to your flag.
Features the translocator, a gun which allows you to teleport distances.

Vehicle Capture the Flag - Same, but with vehicles (ill tell you some later..)
Feathers the translocator, and the Hoverboard, a fast instant hovering skate board that lets you move faster... much faster..

Warfare - A gameplay with extra weapons and vehicles. Here you have a core, in your central base of operations, this core usually is surrounded by nodes, they connect to your core, you go on them, you get them, and the vehicles that come with them in thier small little base. If you get a node that is linked or connected to your enemies core, you may attack it, in other words, kill it, to win.

Features all. Vehicles, guns, hover board, translocator...

Duel Mode - The last mode out, this is just a death match one on one.

Some future modes...

Assualt - this mode will be like a mission your team has to do. it will be one team offense, one defense, and then you will have to activate something, maybe drop a bridge...

Part 3
Vehicular Manslaughter!

There are 2 teams as you know, the good and the bad.
Well with these 2 teams there are 2 sets of vehicles..
The Necris, and the Axon.


Some Axon Vehicles, are the manta, a small super fast reliable mount. It shoots small laser energy balls at enemies, and has 2 massive fans hovering it over the ground. My favorite and cheapest vehicle.

Some Necris... The Scavenger.. A ball of energy with legs, which can fire a beam which leaves nothing in its path. It can turn into a battle droid sort of ball and squish enemy units just like that.

This game has some amazing additions, and a all new character customization looks. You can fully customize your battle suit as you play.

Enjoy, But I rate this game 10/10, and make sure you have a good system, because you will lag to H*** if you have even a medium system o_O...

Unreal Tournaments were always fantastic games. Especially the very first one. I am so disappointed that it no longer runs on my computer (it hates WinXP or s/t).

This game is amazing, sorry for the delay, but i do not visit too often.. :)

You can get his game at you nearest Bestbuy, or Gamestop for PC. Otherwise, they are making a PS3 version I believe. Known to come early next year.

This game is remarkable if you use all its capabilities like characterization and weapon system, and personalize your keys and everything, but make sure that you don't think that all that there is currently is it. They are promising us constant updates with many more game modes like Assualt, and countless new weapons and Vehicles, and charactes you can play with.

And also, if you are starting, don't start on easy please, that ruins all the fun. So.. be a man and stand up for hard..! -Xapphire :<3:)<3

It is an interesting feature that they completely replaced Artificial Intelligence with Artificial Stupidity.
I like to play in single player and I have to say these are the worst bots I have ever seen. Seriously, in one campaign mission you have to control a node for 60 seconds in order to receive Leviathan, the most kickass vehicle in the game. Holding it for 60 seconds proven to be extremely difficult when all your teammates are out wandering instead of helping you. When I finally managed to defend the node and get a Leviathan everyone suddenly popped up there out of nowhere and I didn't get to be the driver.
Now the worst part...after about 10 seconds of driving the driver bot crashed and turned it upside down. :eek:
The second time I managed to get it I was the driver, but nobody was there to join me so it almost got destroyed in the end.
Other examples include trying to drive a Goliath through a wall, camping in the enemy base (WTH) instead of trying to defend the flag carrier, splitting up when teamwork is essential...

Well, apart from this, the game is just pure awesome, but the lack of a (good) AI is quite enough to ruin one's gaming experience.

I was playing on Normal, setting it to Hard didn't change much - the enemy just became more accurate.
My team remained stupid - a teammate tried to ran over me when I was carrying the flag, didn't do damage, but he drove me away from our base and let the enemy hit me. He then picked up the flag and started running into a wall right outside the base. :eek:
The fact I won that one was just pure luck. They also never made any attempt to take the Goliath in the middle, who even needs that thing, why not just let the enemy go on a rampage? :rolleyes:

I mainly play muiltiplayer, real player's are a lot more fun to play against. Also, they make more mistakes.

I didn't see any grave AI mistakes, dunno why. Maybe a patch will improve the AI.

Well, they make it so you dun rely on ur team, which is kinda smart on skill, but not for tactics I guess, still, i guess you can get fun out of it.

The ending sucks like hell though.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    I think we need to add something to the bottom of the front page that shows the Headline News forum that has a link to go to the News Forum Index so people can see there is more news. Do you guys see what I am saying, lets say you read all the articles on the front page and you get to the end and it just ends, no kind of link for MOAR!
