Why does EA suck so much? Epic is releasing an expansion pack for UT2003 for free.

Those bastards did the same thing for the MOHAA expansion pack. You've already shelled out a bunch of cash for the game, you shouldn't have to spend more for some new maps and weapons/vehicles.

Die, EA, Die!

:rolleyes: HeeHeeHee, planes make people go boom!

Thank god they put more anti tank weapons in, now I might be able to actually stop my friend who likes to go on tank rampages :) FthrJack, how often do you play online, and what game types do you favor?

I'm looking forward to the RtR expansion, but I am a bit worried that the addition of more vehicles will make it even harder on folks like me that enjoy playing assault troops.

I think I may spend a few days honing my flying skills...

my strongest point is flak, especially from allied carrier on coral sea, take out cheaters in the tower and the snipers who land on the tower with it too.

then planes.

tanks.

infantry im not bad with, prefer being engineer most of the time and sniping people and laying traps etc with him... not in the thick of battle with the engie, unless im in a tank of course :)

i cant wait for RTR either... the anti tank artillery looks great, we still need jeep mounted machine guns and mobile AA tho. hope they start releasing extra models and more maps like they did with coral sea (but no bugs next time dammit)
