Jazz3: Ultimate Vengeance in DEV?!?!?
 

Hey all,
I found this newspost on Planetunreal

So there you go. Its in development. And it will obviously use the UT2003/4 engine.


Hooray!

Jazz3 in development
 

Hi all

I had to point you to this post in the other forum

http://www.jazz2online.com/jcf/showt...761#post167761

:D:D

Ditto.

Whaaat? O____________o

We saw this comming. No surprises.

still nice to have confirmation from cliffy

he could have just been leading us on a wild chase all this time, but alas, tis true.

hooray for epic and whatever dev has the honours of doing it.

If this is a hoax, I shall run amok.


If not:

*stares blankly* You are kidding right...it's completly illogical to make a 3rd because the 2nd did so poorly...

JJ3!!! Aaaahhh! It's alive! AAAAHHHH!!!!!

I thought Xion was the hoax crazed person? ;)

Either way... this is awesome. Well.. I hope it will be, anyway. :)

I'm not hoax-crazed, I'm just cautious. XP

Whew. Hell just froze over.

Ultimate Vengence? Groan.

Oh well. I hope the game will be better than the title. Great news, anyway.

Only in the USm, which was because of GoD. It did okay in Europe.

w00t. I hope it uses the UT2K4 engine....It is much more stable and allows the use of *good* vehicles. One problem is that it would likely take a very beefy PC to run if it uses UT2K4 engine..

Level editing also gets very hard. All those movers! All those static meshes! All those actors! *overloads and explodes*

No UT engine! >_<
Level-editing would be impossible for someone who can't program or construct 3D stuff or such... I don't like only shooting around either.
MAKE IT AN RPG AS BEFORE!
YOU HEAR ME? YOU HEAR ME, SCREEN? XP

So far I have tried designing some levels on UT2003 and guess what! It ain't easy. After the level designing, modeling and illuminating comes the UnrealScript which is another maze!

UnrealEd is the easiest thing ever. Here is a map I'm working on-

Its just a matter of basic BSP and static meshes, man I would love to be an SM designer for jazz3.

This deserves a big YaY. It was kind of expected though. I can't really describe my happiness. YaYaYaY.

Lol, calm down. It's best to stay calm about stuff like this. I wonder if the game will still be rated E.

Oh yeah, this also means that JJ3 will be for PC if it uses the Unreal engine.

Well it will definitely. The UT engine is epics greatest achievement.

whether it will be rated E or not is a good question...not that the original JJ3 was too violent or anything, but it was certainly more violent than JJ1 or JJ2.

Ultimate Vengeance sounds VERY UT-ish. But I love UT so if it is, that's fine. I guess.

If it uses the Unreal engine, that is great news for multiplayer. Bots will finally be usable! However, online play will be a nightmare for some of the people who play JJ2.

...>.>

Why?

So now they'll have jazz act as a sniper killing all these drug dealing turtles with big machines? They think us kids will play anything.

And nobody does anything to prove otherwise.

You know BR, I strongly doubt if the use of the Unreal engine means the use of the Unreal storyline (if there is such a thing.)

heh, too bad it won't use valves source engine YAY HALF-LIFE 2!!!!!!!!1111111!!1111!1!!111

I really hate to destroy your hopes, but...

did anyone actually read the article? It contains no reference whatsoever to Jazz 3.
Methinks the PlanetUnreal comment was just a bit of creative writing. What's worse, it looks a lot like we are now viewed as a joke by the people at GameSpy.

I find it interesting how i went to PlanetUnreal and then read the actual article and it talks NOTHING about ANY Jazz3, as Toxic Bunny said. And I figured it was a hoax anyway. PlanetUnreal's "news" is about as accurate as stuff from The National Enquirer.

Yeah, I noticed. But the context the news post was in implied former notice. And Gamespy sucks anyway, although I question the basis of your last statement?

*burns his YAY-pictures and flames Planetunreal with them*

Well, nice to know things have cooled down now. And one can definately say it was a joke of the PU staff. ;)
If you haven't noticed by now, this ain't the first time they've bashed JJ over at PU. "So let it hereby be known that we, the Jazz Jackrabbit-playing community, declare war upon all that is PlanetUnreal!"... nah! :P

Still, gotta give them credit for the original title. Let's just hope that whom ever is working on JJ3 (if so) will take this "wicked sick" title. Makes for a nice "in-joke". :)

*slips on a pair of hulk hands and lurches around the PU office randomly smashing things and yelling at passer-bys*

I think I'll spam thier forums, just for fun. :P

(I'm serious about this one. I registered an account there a couple of minutes ago (I am AlienBob :P.) I think I'll leave the wrongdoing for later.

Never hear of PU but I think I hate it already. I hate anything that knocks Jazz. Jazz is 'da best and Unreal aint' on my faverouite games list. Really I find it boring.

Actually, I'm relieved that it was a hoax. If Epic was going to turn Jazz into a Max Payne clone, I would personally vomit into a box and mail it to their doorstep. Then I'd go back to playing the right and good Jazz Jackrabbit 2.

Max Payne is fun and all. I had a good time with it, but that isn't our bunny.... JJGBA *shudder*

I say we DO declare war on PlanetUnreal. Some of us JJ2ers certainly play Unreal games. We will develop new cheats and destroy the Unreal community forever! And they can't fight back because JJ2 isnt in stores ;p
