Some features were cut from the PC version of UT3 and I'd really like them to be back. I Love playing UT3 splitscreen with friends, but I always have to open the console and type the commands to do so. Also, the interface is designed for the XBOX360 controller but they removed everything that looks like gamepad, but it's still not enjoyable with mouse. Here's a list of things i'd like to see in UT3. Ive been waiting for this since the release of Unreal Tournament 3. but they weren't added in the titan pack even if they are essential imo, since the splitscreen mode is the most fun part of the game. I noticed that the game is really designed for gamepad controls (unlike UT2004 which plays best with keyboard/mouse)
things to (re)add:
the ability to join the game by pushing the start button on the XBOX360 controller of the player who wants to join. Typing in the console is lame. Once a player joined the game, he should be automatically join any following game until he presses the start button again in the menu to log out (after conformation).
Gamepad buttons should be shown in the menu again just like any proper PC games like mirror's edge, ArmA 2, bioshock etc. does. Sometimes i have to get up from the sofa just to click something i cannot or dont know how to do with the gamepad since I don't see the button to press in the menu.
gamepad vibration should be back (I even played UT2004 with vibration once.).
the ability to login with multiple user accounts on the same PC just as it is possible on the 360. If that is not possible then i'd like to be able to edit player profiles ingame. This way, i could choose different character models for the other players and give them names which isn't possible yet. Currently, all players except player one are just named "player 256" oder something like that. There should be a list of all the players that have played on this PC and some rankings, statistics and awards etc.
the ability to toggle crouch by clicking the leeft thumbstick once
the ability to play against a certain number of bots, e.g. 3 players vs. 10 bots.
problems to solve:
It's only possible to configure the controls for player 0, but not the other splitscreen players
same with the player caracters and the name
it's impossible to join a online server with splitscreen enabled. I always get the message that "te server does not allow splitscree players" but as far as I know, it's not even possible to enable it in the server setup.
can't play the campaign in splitscreen mode.
I don't get achievements in splitscreen but idk if it's possible to enable splitscreen achievements, since they disable if mutators or mods are used.
if a player is pressing back to view the scoreboard, it occupies the entire screen which is blocking the sight for the other 3 players.
bugs to fix:
the sniper crosshair is too large in 2-player coop since it isn't cut off when player 2 is using alternate fire for the sniper rifle
the HUD is too large in two player multiplayer, and
in 2-player splitscreen, the weapon models are too far away.
It's so lame that epic games, to me one of the PCishest game developers was cutting features from a console game to make a bad PC version instead of making a good game like U2004 was. The Splitscreen mode is the biggest new major feature and the reason that i play UT3. Removing it from the PC version makes UT3 a UT2004 with better graphics etc.
idk how hard it would be to fix these problems, since i don't know how much mods can cange in UT3.
I just want to play this awesome game without the annoying bugs and problems
