Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

TheFeniX had the idea of using the community events server for some Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion action.

What is Invasion?

Picture wave after wave of progressively difficult aliens swarming on your position. Your goal? Stay alive to the next round.

It requires teamwork, knowledge of which end of a Rocket Launcher goes boom, and a properly patched up copy of UT2k4 to play.

So who is interested?

UT2k4 is getting real cheap, so for those of you that don't have it yet, "wattsa matta wit yu?"

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

Damnit! I'm in on this but I can't find the game.

GameStop has none, no new shipments arriving.
CompUSA has none, no new shipments arriving.

Checking BestBuy...

BestBuy FTW!

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

To add, this isn't anything serious. This is merely another venue to get together, BS, and have some fun. There's nothing like rooting for the last man standing. Who knows, we may even beat all the waves.... yea right.

Anyways, the more the merrier, but I'd like to get as many people as possible in on this. I'm out on weekdays, but could swing a late night game or weekends.

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

What does this game cost now? Is this what I need to play Alien Swarm?

Unreal Tournament 2004 is required for either Alien Swarm (which is a seperate mod), or Invasion (Which is a game type).

Amazon has it for $19.99 in either CD:

Or Dvd:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...games&n=507846

For a little more, you can get the Editor's Choice version, which has a ton of maps and mods on it as well as the basic game.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...games&n=507846

Gogamer.com has the basic CD set for $17.90

Yea, tell me about it. I had the same deal with HL2 and Doom 3. Seriously, what kind of person would have the specs required to play these games and not have a DVD player? I only bought the CD version because Best Buy was out of DVDs when I went.

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

I can't figure out how to get the server into Invasion mode.

I see:
Bombing Run
Capture the Flag
Deathmatch
Double Domination
Onslaught
Assault
Team Deathmatch
It's not Onslaught or Assault, I doubt it would be either of the deathmatch options, what about this double domination? Am I missing something here?

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

Im not voting as I'm interested, but am saving for bf2, but may also save for ut2004. However, if I buy ut2004 I would also be able to download Nightblade.

Cancel this. I ended up configuring it using the Unreal Web Admin interface rather than the Cortex interface that was on the server. It proved to be considerably easier.

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

I made a general topic! Checkit! Also, is there any way at all we could configure it so that you can play it with the demo? I know that the demo has a ton of stuff, just its missing mutators for most maps, it has few maps, and it cant be modded.

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

Does anyone know how to check the current version of my installation of ut2004? I can't remember if I patched it since I upgraded my system. TIA!

Re: Unreal Tournament 2004 Invasion Night

So we got 5 people so far. We'll need to start looking into setting up a good time.
