There's a lot of tactics involved in onslaught and it benefits hugely 
from good teamplay and comms. I imagine it's pretty rewarding to play as 
part of a good team in a clan game. BlackCheetah's even done a ut99 
version of onslaught.

vCtf adds a lot of strategy to CTF too, which is probably why it's the 
one part of UT3 that still gets any notice at all. Alas, it bought a 
whole new world of exploits and dirty play (overpowered spawnkilling 
weapons, planting a tank on a flag etc, and exploits involving vehicles 
which unbalance things hugely) but you can't really blame the game for 
that - the determined always find a way to lame, that's why there's 
humans adminning :)
