Unreal Tournament 2004

UT2004 is pretty "performance hungry" for a mobile computer 'cause of its long view distance. Here is my test.

I was pleasantly surprised when i tryied UT2004 on my mobile computer. I was able to run it at a pretty good setting with too much performace loss. Look at the screenshots. The game is far from ugly. In deathmatch mode, fps was between 30 and 50 without slowing down. In onslaught mode, fps was at 20 which is the limit to be playable.

Game Settings
Screen Resolution: 1280x800 - full screen - 32bit color
Texture Quality: Normal
Model Quality: Normal
World detail: Normal
Physics: Normal
Shadow Quality: Low
More Detailed Textures: Off
Trilinear Filtering: Off
Weather: On
View Distance: 70%

Minimum FPS
19 fps
Maximum FPS
75 fps
Average FPS
30 to 50 fps (depending on the game mode)

Note: If you're able to play UT2004, you'll be able to play UT and UT2003 with better performances.

Verdict:
Good playability!
