So anyone finished Unreal Tournament - mode ?

[PeTe]

Well i just got the game and have completed the DM, Domination and CTF ( 13,9 and 9 wins ) but with 4 trys i havent passed the last mission-type map 6. ( from the boat to the fortress with a BIG GUN. =)

So anyone have a good plan to complete this map ? ( Other that Orders-Attack-All. =) Im prettty sure that i will get it right soon, but still... =) Of course i will destroy the gun but the bots destroy it FASTER. =(

Well its a great game, so i dont mind trying.. all the other maps were quite easy.

Is there a diffuculty level to the tournament or is it that EASY ? If i play practise mode against the bots i have the setting in Skilled or the next one.

Do you meen the map ASOverload? It is easily conquered under the minute! If you like to know how i do it you can send a mail to burre.burrito@telia.com and ask me, and i will give you a few good tips. I dont have time to give them now, but if you mail me i'll reply asap.

Ah. Overlord. I love playing that map. However, I hate the @#!%%$@ mortars, and have a hard time breaking through the boiler room unless I manage to get a different weapon by taking out a defender.

After you finish Assault, there is one more ladder to climb, and it get harder there. I'm stuck on the very last map Been trying to complete it for ages.

Any one got some hints??

Xian is very, very hard to beat

Jazza,

Yeah, i got the Overlord right.. the attack went REALLY slow, but i managed to hold the fort for 5 minutes. =)

Just tried the first map in the final round and the bots REALLY kicked my ass. So you have won 3 of those, WOW. I had nothing going on the first map.. got something like 5-6 frags when the winner got 15. And thats the map that was in the UTDemo... =) What difficulty level do you use ?

assault maps are all about speed. (at least against bots, against humans, its all about teamwork, distract and tag'em from behind...). overlord, the usual trick with the mortar is to wait for one of the bots to go in ahead of you, since there is a recycle time on the mortar firing (or seems to be). don't forget to strafe on your way to the tunnel. once there, its simply a race to the next checkpoint before the defenders can pull back to defend it.

[mikebridge]

also, defending this map is very simple, because of the choke point of the entrance tunnel. minigun, RL, and sniper rifle rock in those tunnels. better yet, get a guy in the tower on the opposite side of the beach as the gun emplacement with a sniper rifle, get a guy just down in the tunnel with a minigun, and a guy near the boiler room with a rocket launcher. dead beef.

[PeTe]

Just forgot when i wrote my message that there is a difficulty-setting in the start of tournament.. =)

Yeah the Overlord, Nice GUN. =) Havent played UT now, but maybe tonight ill pass it. =)

Is there a map after that one ? Or do i just get another trophy ? =(

PeTe,

I'm using the default setting, what ever that is.

Yep, that first level is hard. Took a bit of time for me to complete that. In fact, I didn't do it. I'd told a friend how hard it was, he came over and did it on his third go. I was a bit gutted, as I wanted to complete it I guess I should go back and do it myself, but I managed to complete the next 2 by myself.

If you complete it, let me know how you did it

What I usually do to defend (in bot-play)
is I tell them to defend. They do a purdy good job at that. THen I snag me a Sniper Rifle and head out to the entrance of the tunnel. If you set your sights at the lead-up path, you can get numerous "Head Shots" (I love the voice, btw). You can practically prevent any breach of the base this way. (This is with experienced+ levels)

In team play, (avg 6-9 people i can get)
We do a similar setup:
2 people in the towers with sniper rifles
2 at the tunnel entrance (1 sniper[thats me], 1 flak cannon)
usually 2 at the bottom of the tunnel (RL/Minigun/Choice)

And whoever else is with us we usually improvise. (or stick them on the assaulting team. 8-)

[Wombat]

I also like to go to the tunnel entrance with a sniper rifle and a flak cannon. Should anyone make it through the two towers, and past the mortars, you can lob a shell right at them. If it doesn't kill them, it gives the snipers more time to play with them, and (more likely) they're stuck in the mortar's kill zone.
Sniper rifle is good, flak is better when you have 3 or 4 bots coming up.

What a women !

Jazza,

Well tried again tonight, first played a practise session with skilled bots, won that and tried the map again.. and got 14 when the winner got 15.. next game was quite easy, got 15 when the best bot got 7-8. =)

I just "worked" in the area where you can get that rocket launcher, but watch out for fire from the upper levels, some of those bots like to camp there. =)

Won the next 2 maps on the first try and got my ass kicked by XAN..

So now im in the same position you are. =(

Just have to learn the map relly well.. maybe someday i will get it right. =)
