UT3 Free-to-Play Weekend
Category: Specific Game -
Post Date: Mar 5, 2009
In what can only be described as and incredibly brilliant marketing ploy, Unreal Tournament 3 will be free to download and play for this weekend only (after the weekend is over, you will have to pay for it). Even after this weekend is over though, the game will stay only 12 dollars until March 15th. Quite an incredible deal, and this will probably spur sales quite a bit. So if everyone can get this, we'll have loads of NR people with the same game for once, and so we want to organize a big NR frag fest this weekend. If you want to play, either tell me in a comment here, message me, or (preferably) come into Napalm Chat and talk to us about this.For the story you can click this button.
Oh, and btw, it was ɤFyrel that found this on the web, and came up with the big NR gamer night, so go thank him.

Valve's servers are buckling under the massive downloads!
It's been sitting at 2% for a while, and that was AFTER the 15 retries it took to get past the "server busy" error messages.

Yeah, i'm stuck at 27%. I guess we'll just have to suck it up and look forward to saturday or sunday when we can get everyone on and have a massive party.

Not to mention they released the "Titan Pack" yesterday, basically version 2.0 of UT3. Read on: http://www.beyondunreal.c…ticles/titan-pack-reveal/

Yeah, that might also account for the horrible issues people are having downloading it...

Yeah, I read about that. Makes no sense though, as you download the Titan Pack from a completely different server.
