I edited this. there is no solid information on the year. Jim Brown said that Selket would have been an infant at the time of UT3, and UT3 is after 2303, so 2315 cannot be correct. --[[User:Sir Brizz|Sir Brizz]] 17:48, 15 August 2007 (EDT) | I edited this. there is no solid information on the year.

Of course, it's also entirely possible that UT3 only takes place shortly after UT2004, and not years later... but even then that'd give a early 2320s date at best, and that's assuming Selket would've been 3 or 4 perhaps at the time of UT2004. We'll probably have a better grasp on this once we know what year UT3 takes place in, because then we can work from that, of course. --[[User:Dark Pulse|Dark Pulse]] 18:37, 15 August 2007 (EDT) |

Have a source on this being the first time Liandri has sponsored the ascension rites? --Sir Brizz 15:51, 13 August 2007 (EDT)
- It is never explicitly stated, but strongly implied here. I'm going to start playing the game again sometime soon, hopefully, so perhaps I'll find more. Adding a "maybe" to the statement in the article would make it worse in my opinion, but removing it altogether isn't the right option either, as the Liandri are relatively new at least. Not sure there is a way to say that without making it sound stupid though. Hmmm, maybe just saying it like I just did, that UC2 cutscenes imply the Liandri are new this year or something like that.

- Let's leave it this way for now. I'll watch the cinematics again sometime this week and see if I can find out anything about that. --Sir Brizz 00:17, 14 August 2007 (EDT)
One planet?
Before my rewrite the article mentioned the Ascension Rites all take place on the Nakhti homeworld. I remember it differently, but to be honest I'm not sure. Every arena fought in features Nakhti architecture, but the environments don't look identical either. Most planets in the Unreal universe are just like those in Star Wars; either jungle, water, desert, lava, or whatever, but not like Earth with more diverse climates around the globe. So... is somebody else certain about this? If so it's relevant/important enough to re-add somewhere. Thanks! Retodon8 10:34, 14 August 2007 (EDT)
