Unreal Tournament 2004 has been preserved for free and with a handy community patch by a fan community called OldUnreal.
Its cool that they didn’t neglect the Linux versions, installed all three titles on my steam deck
Did it need anything to run on modern PCs? I fire up UT2k4 at LANs once every couple of years generally and have never had problems.
Never really played this other than a few times at a friends place back in the day. I was a Halo fan but always thought the vehicles in UT 2004 looked like cooler versions of the Halo vehicles (the UNSC oness mainly but some are similar to covenant vehicles too). Especially the Scorpion, it’s like a sleeker warthog with fucking mantis blades, that’s just objectively super cool.
Me to my mom: Mom you can’t just download .exe files from websites nobody’s ever heard of before, that’s how you get viruses.
Me right now: OH FUCK YEAH GIMME THAT .EXE FILE WHOEVER YOU PEOPLE ARE.
You could always run it on Linux through Proton/Wine
That doesn’t make it (much) safer.
You could always run another virtual linux in your linux to make it safer.
Online play on Dreamcast is up too ;)
Oh man, that takes me back. I was once in the top 50 of Dreamcast players globally. Must have been mid 2001.
