Epic says UT3 looks better than Gears

"So, Unreal Tournament 3 is the latest and greatest from Unreal Engine 3, right? Gears of War, we thought, looked pretty good, we were happy with what we did, but this is a year later. So, if you take a look at the game, it's just gorgeous, the environments are completely over the top, we're blowing away what we did last year in terms of complexity of graphics and materials."

-Mike Capps, president of Epic Games

Plus, new game footage!

Well, a year after Gears I'd hope that they could figure out how to get more out of UE 3.

Yay progress!

UTIII > Crysis

In graphics at least, either way, theyve been reiterating this for AGES, UTIII will make Gears look like poop

anyone with eyes, could have seen that obvious fact ages ago redfingers.

You'd really be surprised.

Awesome.

I don't like the UT games. Too fast. I hope they tune UT3 to be more console friendly. If they do, then I'm all over it.

You'd really be surprised.

Indeed. Not too long ago, prior to the release of Gears, there were plenty of Lemmings who'd tell you without question that Gears looked better. I found it amusing.

Man, you just sound like a .... No wonder PC gamers laugh at console gamers.

It does. I mean if they stopped at gears of war I would be sad. Now I expect Gears 2 to look better than UT3.

thank you captain obvious...

Anyway UT3 is my most anticipated game coming out. Only game that makes me wish I had a PS3.

It looks fantastic.

but I don't like theultra fast gameplay.

Yeah Glad were getting that as well next year..

But I still have to play through Halo 3, Bioshock, Mass Effect COD4 etc etc etc :D

It looks fantastic.

but I don't like theultra fast gameplay.

UT3 is not for the weak. haha. I love the ultra fast game play and I have no problem playing it with a gamepad despite what some of the nubs on here think.:)

This was obviously back before it was confirmed for the 360.

I am a PC gamer. And I do not laugh at myself. I just don't like the UT games because of the speed.

I don't either.

I like having to use skill and stratagy.

not just skill and dumb luck.

Oh please.

Come back when you've played UT's gametypes, kid.

The pace of the UT franchise has nothing to do with the amount of strategy involved, especially in the game's team-oriented gametypes. If anything that faster pace amplifies the amount of skill and strategy involved, since you have to carry out the same types of strategic thought processes, just at a MUCH faster rate. Of course that means it has a much steeper learning curve, which turns people such as yourself away.

It's looked better from the very beginning. Even many early UT3 shots look better compared to final Gears shots.Velocitas8

The pace of the UT franchise has nothing to do with the amount of strategy involved, especially in the game's team-oriented gametypes. If anything it amplifies everything about it, since you have to carry out the same types of strategic thought processes, just at a MUCH faster rate. Of course that means it has a much steeper learning curve, which turns people such as yourself away.

He is talking about the mechanics of actually getting a kill, not the strategy involved in holding a node or capping etc.

Running around a map while holding the fire button down and racking up 5 kills before you know it is not very fun. Those kills certainly do not feel earned at all, and luck definitely plays too big of a part in it.

Rainbow 6's gameplay feels much more satisfying then any UT game I have ever played.

Grats on making PC gamers sound like elitists.

From what I played it was

Shoot.

kill.

Die.

Respond

every 2 min (probably less)

No team speak.

no incentive to stay alive.

Just mind numming action.

Barely even a sense of competitiveness.

This is all IMO, you may be having a different experience.

Do you mean that Gears 2 is going to look better then UT3! :o

erm any game on PC has teamspeak its a matter of knowing how to use it, UT has stretegy attached to it, speccialy on those new game modes i forgot their names, and its fast paced game play is what makes the game so much fun.

its respawn, and if you die each 2 minutes , i belive you never made to god like or made an ultra kill? thats part of what makes ut so fun tryng to stay alive and building up your streak, not to mention that a CTF match can be insanely fun

i dont think there will be a cross-play Pc-consoles but i see no reason why the ps3 and the 360 coudnt share the servers

I doubt that is ever going to happen since MS and Sony hates each other.

Why would Epic say that their newer game coming out a year after GeOW wouldn't look better?Heil68

The real question is, how much of a graphical gap will there be between the console versions and teh PC version?DrinkDuff

probly around the same as bioshock maybe a little more noticeble, since they arent optmazing the game for pc, but i could be wrong and the diference might turn out to be bigger then some might think
