Overview:- Well Unreal Tournament doesn't really have a story line,its a kind of do this level and go onto the next level,till u gradually work through it.One simple thing aboutgame.But this is the database of all the great Unreal Tournament Mods.

Levels+Textures:- Over 50 levels come with the game,all of these nice mixed textures and interesting level design,but ursally only one or two of these will be ur favorite.the level you like the most will also depend what game type you like to play,there are Assault,Deathmatch,Team Deathmatch,Capture the flag,Domination. Assault is doing missions and destroying or getting to objectives,Capture the flag(take a flag from the enemy base and bring it to ur flag)Deathmatch(all against all) Team Deathmatch(death match but ur on teams) Domination(run around trying to take capture points).Also there are upto 1000 levels that you can download from various places on the internet,made by players like you and me.Unreal Tournament comes with a free level editor,it is a professional job,in the way u have to set AI and scripts as well as build the levels using shapes like cubes.This is perhaps to complicated for most of us.

The textures are very interesting in the levels that came with UT,although most of the extra levels are nothing like as good as the ones that came with the game(I did say only Most) but some are perhaps better than those that came with the game,an example of this is Cold Steel an assault map,which immediately after getting into it I thought now where have I seen this type of level and I thought Soldier of Fortune thatz where.(you can e-mail my mate to confirmed this,but pls don't be that sad).

Realism:-Not very,maybe more realistic in a few years time.

The game is a case of running around on killing sprees,but when I say this the script says right then so its a case of best weapon wins,so just get the rocket launcher and shoot things,you then click back and look at another website.But actually the the weapons are nicely balanced and thought out,each weapon has an advantage and disadvantage,for example,an enforcer is quite fast firing butgot no power,but with 2 of them(one in each hand) charge up to an enemy and hammer him with bullets"he be dead".While the rocket launcher is powerful but slow firing,the sniper rifle is a one hit kill affair but is slow firing,the minigun is fast firing but not very powerful,the redeemer is a mini nuke,but you only have a single shot,also its more of a secret weapon as u have to look hard for it.

A.I:- I am not sure the AI know the definition of team work,but they do know how to carry out and obey orders,Also the programmers have done an interesting little idea that spreads the war across the whole level,which is that each AI has a favorite gun which they work there way up to getting and because the weapons are spread about the level it spreads the action about.The AI doesn't get stuck and can maneuver around the levels pretty smoothly.also they use the weapons advantages/disadvantages to get the upper hand on the opponent,this is especially noticeable on the later difficulty levels,these difficulty levels range from Novice-Godlike.This makes it open to more people that are new to the fast paced FPS genre.
