I've been playing it for two days straight now. The game is absolute genius. I've had a few bugs here or there, but I'm going to forgive it for the time being because of how damn good the game is.
I dont think the demo is a good enough representation of how insane the new maps are.
Face3 is insanity. You have to see it to believe it. Same with magma. Plunge, basically Morpheus2, makes the original look like a joke. I think it is going to be a long time before the amateur mappers can come even close to the crazy stuff they pulled off in this game. The background on the mars base puts any skybox to shame.
Gameplay is different enough, yet similar enough. I prefer it to the old UT for sure.
And considering the gfx, the engine runs at a damn fast speed. No other game can even come close to this. You might need to upgrade for it, but its damn worth it.
There may be a slight lack of originality for gameplay modes, after all its still DM, CTF, DOM and the new bombing run (which is damn fun). But what you get is perfection, not originality.
