How noob-friendly are those servers? Haven't played since it's era, but I'd be interested in booting it up again. I'd imagine I'd just get constantly wrecked by dudes who have been playing consistently for 20 years.

I played UT99 a few months and yeah I had no chance against the regulars. The only match I got a good position turns out I was playing mostly against bots and hadn't realized it

You'll have to set up your game to loom for a new Maser Server. Epic decided to shut the olds one down.

They're not hostile to new players, but there are a lot of veterans. UT2k4 is probably going to be easier than ut99 where the pace is a lot faster.
