Playing the game

Two of the most popular here are Freon and Berserk vCTF. You may find that these servers are full.
Freon
[edit | edit source]
This is a freeze-tag game-type. There's more information about how to play it on this link. We run the game at 1.1 speed, so things happen a little faster than on some other servers.
You may find that some of the players on this server are really tough to frag. Some of them have been playing this game every day for 20 years - so don't worry about that. Enjoy the teamwork, and someone from your team is likely to be along very shortly to defrost you when you get frozen. Remember: You can be an extremely valuable member of your team by finding and thawing your teammates by being close to them even if you find it hard to hit any enemy players!
There are a number of videos on YouTube of game play on this server. If you want to see what it's like there, have a look here.
Berserk vCTF
[edit | edit source]This is a "Capture the Flag" game-type, with a mix of custom vehicles. All players have "berserk" active all the time, which means there are shots flying everywhere. It gets hectic! When there are a lot of players it can get a little laggy as there is so much going on in a small amount of space. Embrace the spam :)

Playing the game on a Pi?
[edit | edit source]You can run UT2004 on a Raspberry Pi!
We appreciate that the Raspberry Pi isn't as powerful as a modern gaming PC - but you can still have fun playing the game on it. We've set up a game server specifically for people using a Pi to try out new maps and game types where only other people on a Pi are likely to join. Unlike on other servers online it's most likely the people playing will have similar frame-rates to you.
See here for details of the server IP address.
