Been putting the UTDMT (Unreal Tournament Deathmatch Titan) on CTF maps lately...

6 or 7 maps so far. Usually just 1 per team, a few get 2.

Haven't done a CTF4 one yet.

Here's a funny little thing I noticed in the Challenge Ladder of the single player tournament.
The idea behind the Lightning Deathmatch is that it goes by faster, so the human player has less time to react, meanwhile the bots (Literally robots in this case) can dominate the level.
However, the bots seem to be negatively effected by this too, for some reason. Or something else weird is going on. Because five minutes in (Plenty of time to beat a 15-kill game, even just a 1-on-1 game), the scoreboard looked like this:

They could just be falling off the level a lot, since this was on Morpheus. Not sure, though.

While the scoreboard is handy, it doesn't really address the issue. I'd suggest playing the map in spectator mode, hitting F5 to observe the game from each bot's perspective to see what's going on with them.

In other news...

Flag Impalement thread

Post by EvilGrins »

Almost immediately after the first versions of UT came out with Capture the Flag as a gametype, this became popular worldwide. People loved seeing players/bots with a flag sticking through them.

Recent chat on UT-memes caught my eye on this one point...

...so everybody that has them, post ONLY flag impalements here!

It was Lightning Deathmatch, something specific to the campaign, so I can't really do that.

What happens when you combine Monster Madness 3 and the flyby map from the original unreal?

That always happens when you drop from above. I had a picture of it somewhere, but why make a special thread for it if you have ss for fun thread?

So I may or may not be willing to share this map, largely to Hook's forum and Fuzzy's... as MEAT is on the latter and the Titans are named after them. Well, they were before I slightly renamed them to 'Hooks' & 'MEATy'.

Almost named 'Hooks' to 'Hooker' but constantly beating on 'MEATy' just seemed to be in really bad taste.

Some shots of the Titans fighting on the nearby Moon as bots play on the map:

Having a hard time tracking down the author of the original map. Knowing his name isn't the same as knowing his email address.

My only edits of this map was insertion of the Titans and the skins they're wearing.
