i think the real question is why was UT99 better in every way compared to Quake 3 when quake 2 was so pivotal to online fps play

Honestly I think having its own in game server browser really helped. Unlike Quake 2 that required mplayer or gamespy.

Plus Unreal was more dynamic in terms of stuff like weapons and pick ups, game modes, level design.

UT was fun but nah, bro. Quake 3 was the boss.
