Guess you mean "the behaviour of UT2004"?
Not seeing a charge status bar does not mean you can't charge ;)

If there was an equivalent for everything then there was no need for a 
second race besides the story. I think the vehicles are good as they 
are, just some maps lack balance because of the numbers and types of 
vehicles used. That's not a fault of the vehicles themselves.

Really? It's been a while since I played the game due to time reasons 
but IIRC I used to drive aroud the ship and don't see a reason why it 
should explode ... it never did for me, only if I used self destruction ...

Btw. I didn't see your mail as a rant, just wasn't always clear to me 
what's your point in general :-)
Hope I can be back to the game soon.
