Line 2:
* [[Canon Discontinuity]]: For Epic themselves and many people, ''Unreal Tournament 2003'' never existed, and said game is a beta version of ''Unreal Tournament 2004'' instead. It gets weird storyline-wise, since that game is still referred in the descriptions of maps and players in ''2004''.
** ''Unreal Championship'' was also erased from the timeline.
* [[Official Fan-Submitted Content]]: Most of the content of the Bonus Pack 2 is composed by entries of the "Make Something Unreal Contest". CTF-CBP2-Pistola won the Best Map award, while all of the Assault maps except AS-BP2-SubRosa were placed between 1º and 5º places in the Best Assault Map category.
* [[Updated Rerelease]]: It should be noted that all of the upgrades and features available in the updated releases are also available as free downloads to owners of the original game. ''2004''' serves as a notable exception, where instead owners of ''2003'' were able to receive a discount on their purchase of the game.
** '''''Unreal Tournament 2004''''' towards ''Unreal Tournament 2003'': UT2003 + its two Bonus Packs + extra content.
** ''2004'' itself has the '''''Editor's Choice Edition''''', which included several [[Game Mod|mods]] and the Editor's Choice Edition Bonus Pack, which was later released as another free Bonus Pack.
* [[What Could Have Been]]:
** ''Championship'' had a lot of broken promises, such as massive
** Vehicles were set to appear [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XgPXQQUUow as far as] ''Championship''.
** The HUD messages for the ''Championship'' betas were taken almost verbatim from those of ''[[Unreal Tournament|Tournament]]''. The final HUD was a complete overhaul, with no similarities to ''Tournament'' being found.
Line 13 ⟶ 14:
** Many maps ended up being cut or totally different than the beta versions:
*** CTF-Lethargic is the only map from the UT2003 betas (which aren't test maps or retail/bonus pack maps with changed names) which didn't made the cut for either ''2003'', ''Championship'' or ''2004''.
*** BR-DE-ElecFields and CTF-DE-LavaGiant2 weren't finished before the launch of ''2003''. These maps were launched eventually in the DE Bonus Packs, and, the former is even one of the retail maps of ''2004''. The latter
*** CTF-Smote and DM-Gestalt weren't ready for ''2003'', but both were finished for the retail version of ''2004''.
*** BR-SlaughterHouse started as a CTF map.
