Mars Wars

- an Unreal Tournament 2004 mod. Mars Wars... As you can probably guess, takes place on Mars! It will take you though all sectors of the fourth rock from the sun through an intensive multiplayer campaign. Battle on the surface of Mars in APCs, Jeeps, and Aesir Fighters. Then go into buildings below to battle in levels like Killbox and Checkmate. Mars Wars promises to bring you non-stop action and entertainment! Make no mistake, Mars Wars is different from any Unreal Tournament 2004 mod you've ever seen!

Make no mistake, this mod will be different from all other UT2004 mods.

Why not for Unreal Tournament 3?  (faq)

UT3 doesn't allow me to host servers. <- main reason  (why bother making a multiplayer shooter that you can't play in multiplayer?)

Everything takes longer to make.  <- lazy reason

Because origionally this mod was supposed to be a total conversion mod to update Red Faction (you know, vehicles in multi, better textures, less polygonal limits, etc.) ... but then it wasn't as popular as hoped >_> ... and now its evolved into whatever the hell RedFrog wants :P

LOL!

I hope with Mars Wars 2.1 there will be servers to play in. :o

So far, I think the test version of 2.1 doesn't turn out too bad, there is still an issue with server crashing going on, and I'm somewhat trying to reduce the "natural laggyness" of the game UT04 but the game won't let me. :o)

Stay tuned! ;-)
