The new UT2004 demo has all the fixes and updates in the latest full version of UT2004, and also includes two additional maps, ONS-Primeval and CTF-FaceClassic, as well as the Instagib CTF game type. In addition, new demo servers are compatible with full version clients, so if you run a demo server, anyone can join it. The windows version is 282Mb, and the linux version is 77.2Mb." Update: Looks like the site is wrong, the linux client is 275 megs.

  1. Re:Cool except ONS-Primeval is WORST MAP EVAR by News+for+nerds · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think I love Torlan and its compact tactics as possible, and like to play demo as it's faster in loading textures and skins than retail (the retail version takes 30 - 60 seconds loading time for each ONS play because of its fat textures and more complicated online coordination)

    But Primeval is not bad IMHO. It's kind of brain-less team death match with some vehicles, just killing each other, it's simple and intensive fight to last very long if teams are even. Sure it often brings lag since many ppl are packed in a small map, nevertheless condensed all-out war is very exciting in itself. In larger maps such as Red Planet you have to run alone very long distance to see your first enemy which is boring sometimes.
