Hey lookie lookie http://www.computerandvideogames.com/ar ... ?id=145534 Yes i know it doesn't say that it will be for UT2k7 but really what else could it be for? Get ready to work your ares off RS cause the MSUC will surely be amazing and i'm sure that (cause theirs no doubt that it will be for UT2k7) they'l accept mods like yours that are game altering and aren't full TCs. |

It'd be a good idea, because they have a damn good chance of winning one million dollars.
Or is the winning price different this time? |

well thats the debate, Nvidia sponsored it last time with the million so if they sponsor it again it could be a million or more. Good to know you guys will enter. |

![]() Or is the winning price different this time? According to the article the actual prize was $50,000 in cash plus a "£350,000" Unreal Engine 2 license. So I'm guessing this time around it ain't gonna be a million either, but $50,000 isn't too bad, and if you use the license to make a truly kick-ass standalone game, you can certainly make craploads of money. Hell, even if they don't win all the publicity will practically guarantee some kind of sweet deal.
If there were such a thing as RS shares, now would be a good time to buy them!

Um. . .yeah. They haven't said that it'll be UT2007, but they HAVE said it'll be UE3. Just to clarify. Though they MIGHT let BW compete anyways. . . |

Since UT2004 uses UE2.5, they will need to port the mod before being able to enter the competition right? |

The money would be nice, but I think that license would be a biggie for RS, cause then they can really get down to making their game they want to do and then of course make even more money
But yes, it will be seriously looked at by RS, and if allowed BW will be entered, or maybe make something else

I think BW should enter, since it has been evolving for a while, it has more of a chance than a brand new mod. |

uhm.. concern: we have 2 team members!! how the F**K are we supposed to make a game with 2 members?? we can do some stuff, but we'd need members.. maybe publisher funding.. |

You can distribute through Steam, but I don't know what that would cost to get a Steam license. But you guys could make a game, it'd just be shitload of work and would take many many years. |

Hmm. . .maybe you should start recruiting. Maybe some of us should start developing skills so we CAN be recruited. Or maybe we should just throw money at you guys so you can afford to do it all yourselves. |

No offense, but I don't think money alone would cut it. Thats still only two guys. (Although I'm sure the money would help )
But, it would be freakin' awesome to see this win MSU! |

Shouldn't be a big problem...steam is a very viable distribution system these days, just look at the games you can get on steam now, at VERY good costs. I personaly think steam is a very good thing (yes, it has it's bad points) and will be the way of future games distribution...the only thing that bothers me is, where is everyone else?? none of the other distributors have something similar! I suppose it is a matter of time... |

yeah... we can do stuff, but it would take time to makea the game we wanna.. BE is starting maps and are looking better.. other problem is we are in f**king Africa!! no such industry exists down here.. hi-speed interent is out of reach, so how are we supposed to contact the rest of the world, especially with other members in other contries? will definetly try getting into MSUC tho..

Currently I think so! But you don't have to use only steam

Only in some areas (mainly the big cities), and very costly, which puts it out of reach of the average joe soap
