ProTip 1: anybody using the phrase "I'm a True Fan and You're Not!" is an obnoxious, self-centered, egotistical, elitist, narcissist douchebag.
ProTip 2: anybody who uses the "Royal We" when making a demand wants to pass their own opinion as everyone else's.
ProTip 3: Only the people that do nothing but criticize don't make mistakes. Do things. Make mistakes. Learn from them. And screw those who do nothing but throw poison and criticize.
ProTip 4: If the Duke Nukem Forever fiasco wasn't enough of a lesson, perfectionism leads to nothing positive. Don't be afraid of releasing a buggy product. Even the most polished product has its flaws.

Wait, even ammo is? What about WarLords? Or even the Nali Weapons modifiers, sure no one can eat those!

Always have a towel, a bucket, and a roll of toilet paper. For no particular reason.

If you eat a Hot Pocket, make sure to eat the cold side first. Getting fragged on a cooldown is never fun!

Open a window, the increased airflow will make you game faster, bonus if you hyper-ventilate.

Keep your finger on that lag switch, even if it doesn't work.

Never play UT while sitting backwards, as it can lead to intense neck pain.

ABSOLUTELY NEVER...
...enhance the A.I. of the bots!

Because it's only a matter of time before some bot you've killed a ridiculous number of times gets enhanced, jacks into your WiFi, and rams a self-driving-car through your house.

However, if you do, for whatever depraved reason, decide that bots are worthy of sentience, notify the UT99.org Bureau of Ethical Considerations immediately so that we may devise a Code of Ethics on Sentient A.I. in Unreal Tournament.

All Unreal Tournament training manuals are written only in the original Skaarj dialect, and must never be read while playing.

Ever.

It would be bad.

A elan musk car will do the trick enhanched by google maps.A tesla.
Just hack the car with the wifi and everything will be alright.

In Monster Hunt, while in a warm up round if you stick an ASMD up a Skaarj's asshole you get a reward

depending of the monster you do it on you'll get a different reward, like a redeemer, all weapons, an Udamage, or infinite points!


This is only and exclusively available in the latest UTJMH version...

EDIT: someone asked how you stick a weapon on a monster
you do as usual, drop the weapon with Q whatever your hotkey is, then while it's dropping, tap any of the arrow keys and it will turn around 90 degrees like it's a tetris block, once it's aiming upwards you're done
wait until a monster runs past it and there you go, it's up its ass. Image

Never play UT while you have a plate of really hot food in front of you.

...because if it falls in your lap while you're playing...

Drinking egg-nog while playing UT is ill-advised.

If you can't parallel park in XV then you are not allowed to use it.
