New Unreal Tournament 3 details emerge

Over at the Beyond Unreal forums, Doc Shock translated a German gaming magazine's interview with Jeff Morris about Unreal Tournament 3. From the translation and follow up by TeamXbox we learn that Unreal Tournament 3 will include a co-op option for the campaign, similar to how Gears of War works. They are also implementing voice commands where you'll be able to give a bot simple instructions to carry out, like navigating a vehicle or protecting a base. Morris also confirms that there will be 12 weapons, 15 vehicles, and 30 plus maps to enjoy. And as always, we'll be playing Unreal Tournament 3 on our Xbox 360s "when it's done" ... because that's how Epic rolls.

[Thanks, DjDATZ]

1. Wow this is awesome. I hope the weapons are all fun unlike some games where people only use like two or three. and an addition of 30 maps is awesome. i cant wait 'till this game

2. GUH? 12 weapons and 15 vehicles, that seems odd.
Why would there be more cars than guns?

Either way, I'm still pumped.

3. I want this game so badly.

4. Sounds like they're taking cues from Rainbow Six.

Niiiiice.

5. @4, if you're talking about voice commands for bots, Unreal did it before in UT2K4.

6. I'm sorry, but "roles"?

7. I guess we'd better be ready for PS fans saying that they can't fit 30 levels on a dvd. lol

8. Curious to see this game on the PS3. it is coming to the PS3, isn't it?

Posted at 9:07PM on Feb 28th 2007 by RogueStorm

9. Co-op campaign? So this means there will be an actual campaign mode in UT3? Not just a bunch of tournament matches like in the previous games?

Posted at 9:10PM on Feb 28th 2007 by Seroth

10. @8...Yes it is coming to the Ps3. What will it look like, well it's pretty safe to say it's going to look exactly like the 360 version, seeing that both systems graphically are equal in one way or another.

Posted at 9:58PM on Feb 28th 2007 by Killer

11. @10 Exactly the same? Epic have implied that the PS3 doesn't have enough RAM available for graphics to match the 360:

"Preston was also asked if the PlayStation 3 will be able to handle the game, but presumably he dodged the question, but still implied that the answer was no."
http://news.softpedia.com/news/PlayStation3-Too-Low-Tech-For-Gears-of-Wars-38877.shtml

It's so funny how long Sony managed to keep people believing that the PS3 was going to be a massive leap up from the 360. Now PS3 owners have to be content with graphics that are "almost as good".

16. @14 scott...you have any sources to confirm this?

Posted at 11:04PM on Feb 28th 2007 by DjDATZ

17. Why is there so many insane games coming out? Unreal 3, Halo 3, Half-Life 2. there goes all my money.

19. Final Light...i submitted it...but credited it all to you.

for next time...the middle "column" of any page here at X360F has a subsection called Resources under which you have a link to "Send us News Tips" that takes you to http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/tips/ where you can submit news tips. if the crew here at x360f...thinks its relevant...they will write up about it...and credit you. (as they did with me with this news item)

20. "2. GUH? 12 weapons and 15 vehicles, that seems odd.
Why would there be more cars than guns?"

My Opinion: Five special Weapons per team, vastly different, and each team will have a two weapon default loadout.

Fifteen Vehicles, err...this is probably vehicles that are related to only certain terrains or maps, and then there are probably some that only one team can occupy and so on and so forth.

...like i said, though, its just an opinion.

i can't wait for the mass destruction to begin!!!!
