this tool gives you resume etc, its what i use and im on 56k, my advice is to make your internet dial whenever con is not present and set it to auto resume and leave it overnight=)

All downloaded :D

yes, yes.. very realistic...

- Ugly skins, but great animations

- Realistic looking maps ( i suppose ), but crappy textures and poor poly counts

- Extremely good sounds that sound less like static, and more diverse, like something out of a good action movie

Once I get some buy binds sorted maybe i'll think about playing it again

The only "realism" i get from the game are guns that have real names and your character goes down in a hit or 2. Oh and the fact that people arent bunnyhopping around the maps... I like that. But then I see the water effects, the skins, THE RADAR?? and the absolute lack of atmosphere and say...

No thanks. Granted it must of been revolutionary in August 99 but If you love this game enough to not even look at Tactical Ops for UT then fine. But imo your missing out on a brilliantly atmospheric, easily run, extremely low pinged ( compared to CS ) game which has superbly decorated skins and maps.

I still sweat buckets when im the last on my team in TO... When I was last on my CS team I just didnt care. Especially when some of the maps has colour schemes like disneyworld.

Players in the last 31 days:

Tactical Ops - 190,583 players
Counter Strike - 8,568,113 players

Oh and yes when UT2k3 becomes released... Tactical Ops will release a mod to play with that engine, you can stick to your HL engine ( and didnt that come from Quake? )

I think it was from a Broken down Moped, made in 1932.. that's only source of power is when it rolls down a hill..
