well guys,
Was just thinking which one of these is better. i Personally hate CS. and am the biggest fan of UT.
enter your votes which game is more liked by the digit gamers.

if this thread was created before i am sorry for the trouble?

thanks

graphics:
definitely UT. The CS engine is too old to compete

weapons:
UT again. the UT arsenal is better and more diverse than that of any other FPS. CS has a lot of wepons but theres not much difference between one rifle or 5 others.

bot AI :
UT hands down. CS bots have major pathfinding issues

level design:
Tie

multiplayer:
CS. although UT has some truly awesome modes like assault, CS is simply much more fun to play.

overall i give UT the nod

Gameplay wise nothin can beat CS in multiplayer .
IMHO gfx and stuff really dont matter in multiplayer ,all that matters is how fun is it play ,and CS is wht i enjoy the most on lan

what's the point of voting if u havent played either game??? u r just biasing the poll....

@Serial_Killer: i agree that graphics don't matter much when it comes 2 multiplayer gaming....but UT is certainly a lot of fun 2 play....instagib CTF absolutely rocks!!! also, the thread wasnt started with the intention of voting 4 the best multiplayer game....

I vote UT2004, even when it comes to best multiplayer. That game has EVERYTHING. Amazing graphics, incredibly detailed worlds, and a spanking pace. Just when you thought UT couldn't get better with DOM and BR, they bring in gametypes and mutators like Mutant, Invasion, InstaGib, the ever popular AS and the mother of them all - ONS. UT has since migrated from a twitch style shooter to a game that needs extreme coordination and great strategy to win, especially when it comes to the newer CTF, BR, AS and ONS. In fact, it combines the best of both worlds - the frantic pace of Q3A with the brilliant strategy/teamplay of CS. This is one game I can play forever and then some more.

uhhh...huuuhhh.....and at what dificulty do ya play with the BOts.....try playing with difficulty level above 15 and they'll just tear ur limbs apart.....Btw i got Sniped even before i re-spawned to play (uh-oh i guess too much Hyperbole but u get the point right)....the thing is CS needs a lotta Tricky Sh!t to frag up ur oppnents and its the best at Lan play if u have an A$$ whoopin clan....btw Me i am definetly gonna stick to that Fast Shootin No lookin Ut2k4 style of action....so Ut Has a big score here too....Plus Play the Single Player Mode With Bots In UT2k4 with God-Like Diffuculty and see ur screen drool with blood and nothin but blood and Guts everywhere :lol: :lol:

Thank guys, :idea:

thank you all for making me realize that i am a normal gamer. in gujarat every one seems to like only one multiplayer game (C.S). where i only like UT. it seemed like i am from a different planet.

thanks again.

yes yes yes.. UT RULEZ.. music - ULTRA cool.. graphics.. stil one the best for an game out there (forget doom n hl.. :D) .. gameplay ( the modes) - KILLER .... the AI.. stil one the BEST BOT AI to date... awesome voiceovers , TAUNTS!! (these are really cool). n last but not the least - the MAPS!!!... so damn balanced.... there is no place u can camp if u r up against a good UT player (like me....:cool: :D ;-)) n the weapons.. OMG... the list is endless...

CS has one adv - very good gameplay.. team play... all that... n kinda addictive cuz each round gets over really fast n u want one more round!!

But UT is BEST!!!!

@allwyndlima: While playing with the bots is great fun in UT2k4 (I usually play at Godlike setting, nothing else will do) you have GOT to play against human players for maximum fun, especially ONS. Some things the bots don't even think of. :D

When it comes to maps, MY favorite DM maps are DM-IceTomb and DM-CBP2-Summit, obviously in InstaGib mode. Man, death can come by so fast in those two. DM-Serpentine is good but not that tough compared to Summit or IceTomb in my opinion.

When it comes to adrenaline combos, my personal favorite is always the Booster. This way, you can rake up frags by the dozen, especially if the map is smaller and increase your adrenaline with kills and awards and you can literally win the round in mere seconds, if you time it right. :D

@bharathbala: It will work on your system, all right, but its illegal, plus its CS for Pete's sakes man, its so cheap now. Get a legal copy.

My fav map is DM-DE-Ironic n DM-1on1-Roughinery... have played serpentine.. its pretty cool... no rockets there!!.. jus flak n lightning!!

play wit masterful bots only... but i can easily beat ppl who can get godlike bots 33-0 n all.. i cant play well against comp.. but wen it comes to multiplayer.. its a diff flak-ball game!! :D (against these guys, my score is usually 17-0 n mite come down to max o 9-5 n all.. have been beaten by these godlike-beaters only a few times :D

allwyndlima said:
Also whats ur Fav Arenaline combo move???

i don use the adrenaline... i play WCG style.. always with "no adrenaline" mutator.... its so much more balanced that way...

my fav weapons are flak, shock (esp the combo) n the lightnin.. ahh.. i love the "headshot" annoucement!! :D

@bala....i suppose its the retail version of CS Source Ripped By Someone called EmPorio and Made it as a stand alone version to download via torrent cause obviously as far as i know the CS 1.6 retail was just 358MB in size or somewhere near it.....but trust me The M64 aint enough to play the source man as the textures and engine has been enhanced over its previous versions and will require a decent Gfx card for a smooth gameplay...Plus As enoo said try for a legal copy but it will cost ya heavily as if u need the Source then u'll have to buy the Whole Hl2 Licenced copy which has Hl2 deathmatch and Source bundled with it :wink:

@enoo....man God-Like mode hmmm....just one question whats ur kills or rather what are ur deaths out in that mode :lol: :lol: cause when i tired on playin on that mode i either end up pressing the escape key and quitting the game in frustration or reducing the level to Adept which i usually play on :wink:

@fnatic@play.....guess u are after all more than die hard dude....but anyways good for ya....nice to see u are a pro at this game....might as well like to get some tips on gameplay outta u sometime buddy....but until then i'll keep practising with my good ol bots and fry thier A$$e$ for a while....Muhhhhaaaahhh :lol:

My vote goes to UT2004. I had enough of playing only the age old CS. All the people here in my town also play CS only, that too badly. Only me and one of my pals here play UT2004. The awesome UT Bots are my only opponents thereby and dont disappoint me. My favorite map.....hmmm....,
bah, i like many maps and its hard to decide my fav one. My favorite weapons are the rocket launcher and the shock rifle. My fav adrenaline combos-
Speed in CTF
Berserk in Deathmatches(Splendid combination with double damage)
Booster works well for almost all modes(Not much in Onslaught)

@Allwyn: Guess Bala was talking about the old CS 1.6 rather than CS:S. Must ask Bala what exactly was he talking about. He just mentioned Counter Strike Retail Version. My guess is its the old CS but then the file size is bigger as you pointed it out.

@allwyn: Deaths to Kills? I guess its around 1 to 7 or something along that ratio. Of course, me and my friends like committing suicide a bit when we're in our drunk-on-craziness mode, so I average a fair bit of suicides too. We also like taking some female skins and going to the Morpheus or the Summit maps, jump off and go "Jack! I'm flying! Jack!" :lol:

@achacko: Condition Zero is coming out soon? :? Then what have I been playing for over a year now along with the Deleted Scenes and the official CS bot? :lol:

BTW, there's something I should recommend for UT2004 fans who also like CS, like yours truly. Check out the TC for UT2004 called Frag.Ops here:
*www.frag-ops.com/

Man, I am never going back to CS or CS:S again in my life. It was the main reason I quit CS and switched totally to UT2004 some time back. Maybe Digit should give it on the DVD for the others to try. It still needs a lot of touches but if its gonna continue this way, its totally gonna 0\/\/|\| CS. :lol:

@cody....hmmm now i wondered at first wether bala was talkin about CS 1.6 but then again BT has now mostly collections of Sources Ripped stand alone version more and some of em are either named Retail or Final depending on the Uploader.....btw yup the size at first was my concern for the judgement as the last time i downloaded CS retial 1.6 was about 358MB and darn thing showed up with a Unzipping error......but anyways let him try if he wants to :p

@prof.....well first off i aint on broadband but a 64k leased line and the conn sucks as far as online Multiplayer action is concerned so i guess will have to do with it for a while.....btw Grt man ur deaths are very less compared to mine....i get the big gees kicked outta me at tha level but bahhh will get those Bots someday....and they better be ready for that day :twisted:

@acako....CS condition zero has been out long back man....where have ya been....and the game sucks as well....lame storyline and lame AI....total waste of time :twisted:

@allwyndlima: Well, if you've played with the original UT at a higher difficulty setting, and pretty much concentrated extensively on Morpheus, Hyperblast or anything in the Lightning DM rounds, UT2003 and UT2004 are a piece of cake. :lol: I got my first introduction to UT on software rendering mode on a Celeron 400, and I haven't looked back since.
BTW, you definitely want to check out the Frag.Ops TC. Trust me on this one! :D

And oh, the one great thing about CS:CZ at the time was that they were bundling a HL2 preview CD with all the 10 gameplay videos that were released at that time. :lol: One of the major influences for me getting that game.

@prof.....well i have played the original Ut and tell ya was really good at it...not grt but good at it....plus i had the utmost pleasure of playin the game in god-like mode then and The DM_Turbine's Soundtrack just fired me up for it....but UT2K4 was a total different ball game all in all.....but will check out the frag-ops Mod....:wink:

Oh by the way the lure for CS:CZ was grt but seriously the game wasnt and believe me my friend paid for it and was in for a Bad game and me for a good treat as i was borrowin for free from him....Muhaaahhaahh :twisted:

Lemme see. How many serious gamers are there in India? The guys you talk about are'nt serious gamers, and play games for relaxation. They would have got introduced for the gaming world by games such as CS or Warcraft. They liked it and play only them. They dont care to know about the other good games available and stick with the popoulars, i.e., CS and Warcraft. So, the people who voted for UT are probably Serious gamers or gamers who are exposed to a much variety of games.
