God I miss Unreal Tournament, why can't we have multiplayer games like this again? Just a silly fun multiplayer shooter with lots of options on how to play and no greedy shit on top.

There's plenty games that're like that, just not as popular as other shooters around right now.
You like to name some?
But still with more players than there ever were on Unreal Tournament.
Edited my comment to make that clear for you.
I understood your comment without the edit.
Because Fortnight. Epic cancelled development on everything else except fortnight.

I played that beta. I played that Early Access. UT4 was fun and I was stoked for it. I was shit at it, but I was having a blast when I played it. Now it's dead. All Hail Fortnight!
Don't even remind me of UT4, I was there day one and was absolutely furious when they cancelled it. Seriously, fuck Epic.
Multiplayer games with some form of progression are much more popular. Games like you describe still exist, they are just less popular relative to others.

well we do it is called xonotic and it has the best rocket launcher in any game hands down, it comes out of the quake lineage tho
One of the beste games i've ever played.
I remember that I played at 2x Gamespeed, lowgrav and Instagib for so many nights. Thanks for the good memories
It was so great to have those options. Games could do that now but most don't.
Was just thinking the same. A happy trip down memory lane. We used to do quad jump + low gravity + instagib. There was some capture the flag map that was great with these mods. I can't remember the name now though.
Maybe CTF-Face? With the two huge towers?
But there were many maps extra made for this. And even whole servers runnig this gamemod 24/7.
Yup. That's it.
Instagib deathmatch with low gravity was so much fun :)
[The map] Morpheus with those settings was a riot.
