Well this certainly came out of nowhere. Epic Games has today released the first official bonus pack for Unreal Tournament 3, featuring re-makes of old classics Morbias and Facing World, as well as an all-new map called Searchlight.

Download here from FilePlanet (160MB).

Full press release follows:

Today, Midway and Epic Games announce that downloadable content for the award-winning first-person shooter, Unreal Tournament 3, is now available for PlayStation 3 and PC. The downloadable content consists of three deadly arenas: Morbias, Facing Worlds and Searchlight. PC users can find the new content at Unreal Tournament 3, while PS3 users can download it directly from the PlayStation Network.

These downloads, which are free to all owners of Unreal Tournament 3, mark the latest achievement in providing the gaming community with unrivaled mods and superior experiences through the most recent installment in the Unreal Tournament franchise. While Unreal Tournament 3 shipped with 40 maps, and hundreds of user-created mods have been published since the game’s release, Midway and Epic are committed to providing fans with even more official content to further extend enjoyment of the game.

Morbias is the deathmatch arena that started it all, perfectly suited for anything from small intense duels to chaotic free-for-all matches. The Unreal Tournament classic, Facing Worlds was one of the most played maps in gaming history. This beloved sniper map makes its return alongside an intricate new capture the flag map, Searchlight, designed for both z-axis rooftop runs and strategic indoor gameplay. Returning classics and fresh new designs let you experience Unreal gaming like never before.

Got it. Now I gotta start playing the game?

[{OF}Flying_Dutchman]

Oh and I added it to the server too!

(Now I gotta set up the redirect on there sometime....)

The new CTF map is a little to green in color. Fun map though! Wish we could vote to change the game style si we can try the other non CTF maps.

I saw the green even worse as my video card [ gts 8800] wasn't ramping up the fan enough. EO tends to spawn alot of particles :P especially since I am a Goo-whore.
It made all the levels tint green, I could even see it happen during a game this afternoon with madnad at the eo beta server [which is now public, vctf until the beta testing starts again by the way] ...have to figure out that rivatuner program again otherwise the 100% fan setting is just too loud.
..next version will be optimized even more, until then I'm gonna turn the details down a notch

O.K but are you guys talking about CBP3 or the orginal bonus pack (which is what this thread is about). CBP3 is what was installed/DL yesterday on our server.

Dutch, the Green only came after I installed both the community pack and the excessive mod on my PC. I installed both of them back to back, so not sure which one caused it. Restarting the game on my PC fixes it for a few maps.

I really think its a heating/ video card issue.
it was most noticable for me on the new cbp ctf level which was uber green sewage stuff anyway.

I will see what madnad thinks , the whole ut3 "bloom" effect seems to be overkill [hehe] and now that I have turned my FX detail down a notch I dont miss it at all.
--the glowy character models are like neon, [in team games] and the goo seems like it's radioactive.. well i guess it is supposed to be..

ive set my vid cards fans to turn up sooner and so far it hasn't happend to me again.

Also that beta server has issues-- not as uber as the {OF} one..[ even though Epic uses the same service for it's own public servers]
