I need to play it more but my first impresions:
- pretty good for a beta 1; the game is at least playable and fun
- not a fan of the new HUD
- a little crashy (only once, on a map change; my client crashed, not the server), a little laggy when spawning in
- like the new vehicle physics, but the Raptor (ie. XMP's "Scorpion" buggy) feels a little "heavy", but it feels SOO good to go boosting over ramps again
- sprint-dodge-jetjump feels exactly like the original = excellent!
- weapon graphics a little off (no tracer for sniper rifle that I've seen; tank doesn't have its flame thrower....yet)
- maps look great! I miss Freefall, but the new ones look like a lot of fun.
- not a fan of the hacking graphics or spawning graphics; liked the originals better, but this might be because of a limitation in the UT2004 engine (U2 might have had some custom alterations or something to create certain effects)
- ditto the shotgun's alt fire (phosphorus shells) but that might come in later version, just like flame thrower
All in all, an excellent first release. Hope to play some more before the week is out!
