Special Features in Unreal Tournament:

Translocator
The translocator is a small disc shot from a launcher. The player can then teleport to the disc's location, including in midair or on top of a high ledge. In practice sessions and multiplayer there is an option to enable or disable it.

Launching
The term "launching" refers to the ability to 'launch' another player on your team to a desired location within a certain distance using the rocket launcher or impact hammer when there is 0% friendly fire. Although there is some dispute as to whether or not Epic meant to include this feature or not, it is widely accepted as something which is quite good for the game.

Stomping
Stomping involves jumping onto an opponent from a high enough ledge to deal damage. Though it inflicts little damage, however, if one 'stomps' an opponent with little health, a frag will be accumulated and is registered on the HUD as a kill with whatever weapon the 'stompee' happens to be holding.

Community
As of February 2007, there remains an active but dwindling UT online community with a couple of thousand UT dedicated players online in multiplayer combat at any one time across approximately 2,000 servers located on almost every continent of the world.also dwindling are the leagues that once existed for competitive play.

One such league, the Proving Grounds, was arguably the longest lasting and most respected gaming league for UT that ever existed. Unfortunately, the Proving Grounds closed its doors in 2004 to the dismay of many online clans who actively played in the United States based league.
