UT3 Demo

What do you think of UT3?

The first things i noticed were the flak cannons having a very different flight path (so flak monkeys like me cant go all-out), sniper rifles are VERY easy to headshot on the vehicle CTF mode... the dark-walker in the deathmatch is sorta overpowered, the weapons all look very similar and its hard to tell what you have equipped (for now), and the big one...

WHERES MY TRANSLOCATOR??? when you get shot on the hoverboard you fall on your face for a few seconds, and you are a sitting duck. This is a big change to the translocator, which used to have more utility (even though i think bouncing over the map looked a little silly, you could actually USE a transloc in combat... unlike a hoverboard, which just makes you ridiculously vulnerable.

I dont like the way water slows you down so much (on the vehicle CTF map), and you cant draw a weapon... the knocked-down thing when falling from a height isnt that fun either. Also... vehicle steering (keys + mouse combined) feels very cartoon-ey and i *really really* hope they tune this to have semi-realistic physics, or a different P.O.V, or... or something. I am prepared to wait as long as it takes for them to tune it *perfectly*.

I DO like the start menu... looks amazing, i like shock combos, i like the new default weapon (compression hammer or something), and i love the 'edgy' feel of speed, its dynamic, and your trigger finger has to be PERFECT!
