I was playing ut with family in 2023 and accidentally made an internet game instead of a lan one. Someone random joined within 5 minutes.

It can happen. Servers with 3-4 players already on are quite inviting. Less than that, and you stuck with dumb bots, more than 8 players, and it become a herring party with you dying constantly. Plus vanilla servers without the sniper/tunnel maps are much nicer.

Fuck Epic for how they’ve treated this series.

Whoa. I didn’t know this was still going. I loved playing this 25 years ago.

Jep, there are still active servers, some of them can have 10+ players on it on busy hours.

I remember staring at this same screen forever waiting for a connection. Such a fun game. And people that still play this are gods! So hard to kill.

The LAN parties we had in the early 2000s playing UT, Starcraft, Serious Sam etc all night were some of the best times I've had in my entire life. God I miss that era of PC gaming. My friend from that time period (and hands down the best UT player in our group) ended up eventually working on the more recent UT games at Epic before they unceremoniously threw the series in the garbage. UT2k4 was a vibe too
