[Late to the party] UT2004

About 3 years late, but what the hey. I've played the demo on and off for a long while but finally got the full package (Unreal Anthology). Just in time to get back into the swing of things before UT3 hits.

Currently I'm playing mainly for Onslaught mode, and having a blast at it (even if I do still regularly end nearer the bottom of the ladder). Although there seem to be a large number of empty servers around for some reason (probably because I've missed the boat and everyone's moved on to stuff like Battlefield).

So I just wanted to ask about what are the basics / essentials for this game? I know that the UT franchise has usually had quite a strong modding community, so what's been released that I should really be looking into? Mainly I'm looking for stuff that's good playing botmatches / singleplayer (since I currently still suck quite bad at multi), but anything is good. Mods, Mutators, realism based or crazy, combinations of mutators, amusing speech files, whatever you've got, I'd like to know about it. Actually, if you can point me in the direction of a good mod / mutator repository for UT2004, that would be awesome as well.

Oh, and finally:

    You're pretty late. There's rarely any servers around anymore, but occasionally there'll be a PA server up (or we'll take over someone else's).

    I love this game, by the way. Played LAN with my friends all through this past summer.

    I don't often use mods, but often do use mutators. InstaGib and Quad Jump are my favourites. There were some pretty cool ones, though, if I remember. ModDB should have them.

    If you like Onslaught, you'll love Assault. The space-battle one is so fun.

    Anyone notice how some things (mattresses and the copy machines in Highrise) are totally impenetrable? A steel wall, yeah that makes sense, but bullets should obliterate copy machines.

    I don't know about you, but I always buy a bullet proof printer. Its a lot more expensive, but I think the advantages are apparent.

    The ninja rope mutator is so much fun.

    ChaosUT2 was good, but I don't know if it's being updated anymore.

    TAM is a mod that is extremely popular and is more played than some game-types.
