How did UT3 for 360 get shafted Alan?

 

[heynivek]

me, **** chang, and some friends are in the process of finding our schools's activities board so we can find out how we can rent out the space somewhere on campus. If successful, we could gain access to campus tvs, air conditioned rooms, big and small. In addition I am aware there is an emerging base of competitive smashers growing locally within CMU, giving us a stable attendance base.

Potential drawbacks would be not being able to directly set up a cash pot, but these can be dealt with through gift visa cards, etc.

$10 MM anyone?

The 360 version is launching far later than the PS3 and PC, and there's no announced support for user content, the Unreal Editor, or keyboards and mice, despite all these features being readily available on the PS3 and obviously PC.

Besides, Unreal has always been prided on its unprecedented optimization, so no radical system overhaul should be necessary for the game.

I'll do it after a $90 GH MM.

Before you gripe, let's consider the stats here. Presumably, I'd be making $80 in that deal as I'd be completely hopeless to succeed in your chosen activity; however, I'm offering you an oppertunity to add $90 to your already guaranteed 10.

That's a 1000% increase. The stats are clearly in your favor. I suck at Guitar Hero. MM.

Nah, im not confident enough in Halo 2 to throw money around. Actually, i downright suck at it.

Wow Kevin, you are truly totally awesome if you get this done. I'm sure we could get around the no cash involved thing, it is a very minor detail if you can come through with this.


HeyNivek FTW.



Alan, what are the system requirements for UT3 and where can I find them? Looks like I'm purchasing a new video card and another 1 Gig of RAM.

There are no definite specs released yet; however, an estimation from Epic says that technology around the level of Nvidia 7800 g-cards is pretty middle-ground for the game. UT is always very well optimized and wildly customizable in level of detail in various areas, so unless your hardware is long out-dated, you should be good.

All that is apparently confirmed:
Minimum of 512MB card memory / around 2GB system memory
DirectX10 is provided with the game but not required
DirectX9 users probably won't be able to use FSAA at all

hello

lets play smash today and/or tomm.

i have 1 class early tomm, its my freest day....

 

[pockyD]

i'd play today

 

[D20]

I'm done with class by 2, so I'm game.

 

[SwiftBass]

i must work on my new 4 stock strategy\

ive concluded that falco ideally is better against marth than fox.

 

[pockyD]

what is it, pick poke floats and run away and shoot lasers?

 

[A-Laon]

Marth is Falco's worst match-up. Fox is a cakewalk in comparison.

 

[SwiftBass]

nah its better than pokefloats...

 

[A-Laon]

But not better than Mute City or Brinstar...

...or Battlefield / FD.

 

[xyt]

I'm is not game = /

 

[Na!l]

Termina bay?

 

[Renth]

i disagree Tim i think fox does much better against marth than falco does especially watching col bol 4 stock marth mains all over the place

 

[pockyD]

marth vs spacies is very stage dependent

in general i'd rather fight falco as marth than fox but i don't really play marth that much so what do i know

edit where/when today?

also i'm free after 330 tomorrow

 

[SwiftBass]

i know fox does better but plz lemme try to convince myself that i can deal 700-800% with lazers in one game(200 per stock) and have an easier time

 

[ReadySetGo]

Allow me to quote Alan in regards to the Falco v Marth match up.


"Falco gets knocked off the edge, then he dies [a very gay death]."




Marth's edge guard is more along the lines of edge **** or edge gay.

 

[Nakamaru]

i know fox does better but plz lemme try to convince myself that i can deal 700-800% with lazers in one game(200 per stock) and have an easier time

Dont become another reik. -.-

 

[A-Laon]

"Falco gets knocked off the edge, then he dies [a very gay death]."

Falco's recovery sucks balls.

 

[ReadySetGo]

Ah yes there is another good one, Alan is king of the Falco recovery Johns.

 

[A-Laon]

Ah yes there is another good one, Alan is king of the Falco recovery Johns.

No point in awarding me the title. If johns dictate one's standing, Falco's recovery alone is enough to make anyone royalty.

 

[Renth]

Falco's recovery sucks balls.

[heynivek]

@sweetTooth: I am the yoshi player you were teaming with last friday. good times, i particularly liked your samus and zelda, but you played everyone pretty well.

as a marth player, i don't really prefer fox or falco significantly more, falco is easier to kill, but lazers are annoying as hell. down air also has way too much effing priority.

in the spirit of everyone changing their team names, me and **** chang are also considering changing ours.

 

[pockyD]

marth ***** fox's recovery almost as easily as he ***** falco's

also falco is slightly heavier and has a slightly higher double jump (which are the more important moves to getting around marth's gimping)

fox still has a slightly easier time getting back IMO just due to sheer distance but to me crappier recovery is a nonfactor in that matchup (space animal vs marth)

 

[Nakamaru]

I say fox has an easier time with marth just on the sheer fact that he has many more options to kill marth than falco does.

 

[pockyD]

at any rate, if anyone wants to play at or near (my house) cmu tomorrow anytime after 3:30, give me a call

[sweetooth]

o ok. cool nevik. I thought so, i just wasn't sure. and also, now that im getting back in the swing of things... I just realized everyone has a team but me

 

[takieddine]

not everyone really has a team... you should team with Harm or TSK for double Samus hotness
