Former UT99 veteran introduces himself - Megas X - 02-19-2020 Guys, I have to say, this game is not like Unreal Tournament. This is Unreal Tournament! Really, it's a great game! I remember the very first game "Unreal" from 1998 and when 1999 "Unreal Tournament" was released, I played like in a trance. So many hours were invested in it, but it was more than worth it. At that time I was the clan leader and webmaster of CoD (Company of Death) 21 years ago. We were quite successful, maybe here is someone who still knows this clan ![]() At that time, ICQ was the means of communication and MS FrontPage was used for web design ![]() Looking back, those were the best years with Unreal Tournament. And our community was not comparable to the current time. This cohesion was unique. I came across the game "Xonotic" by chance. Google helped me ![]() I also play Toxikk. Great game too. Unfortunately there are more bots at work than real people ![]() I have been looking for a game that has the same character as Unreal Tournament for a long time. And this game really convinced me and it's even free! Also detailed statistics about Players and Matches are recorded here, which I think is really great ![]() I don't care if the community here is not as big as the hyped mainstream games. I prefer communities where everyone supports and exchanges rather than Fortnite or PUBG, which only generates a bunch of brainless Players. Glad to be here! ![]() RE: Former UT99 veteran introduces himself - RazorDodger - 02-19-2020 Hello there! Welcome to the community. Unfortunately, Xonotic like you mentioned doesn't have the biggest player base, but the community is very welcoming and friendly. I don't know what region/country you are from, but you'll have the most success in finding servers with players on it in the evening between 20:00 and 0:00 CET. I also don't know what modes/game types you're into, but the most popular vanilla servers are wtwrp votable 1 and wtwrp votable 2 where clan arena and capture the flag are mostly played. If you'd like to have a chat and some good banter with the community, consider joining the Xonotic discord here or join us on IRC: #xonotic and #xonotic.pickup on quakenet.org. Enjoy your stay here ^^ RE: Former UT99 veteran introduces himself - Halogene - 02-19-2020 What a nice introduction! Judging by that you've come to the right place :o) Welcome to the forums and enjoy your stay - looking forward to meeting you online!

I am Greek, but I come from Germany - that means 20:00 and 0:00 CET can be set up ![]() In UT99 I preferred the game modes Assault, CTF and Domination. I think I will mostly let off steam here in CTF. Discord is always good ![]() Thanks again - looking forward to meeting you online RE: Former UT99 veteran introduces himself - DarkFox - 02-19-2020 Hello, good man! Welcome to the forums. It's always nice to see new players. Have a nice time! RE: Former UT99 veteran introduces himself - SpiKe - 02-19-2020 Hi Megas X, and welcome to Xonotic! I also played Unreal Tournament before discovering Xonotic, though it was UT2004. The Xonotic community is indeed not big, but it's a very nice and friendly community ![]() |
