Just spotted this cooool floating trick that you can try out for yourselves in UT2003! Posted by SeRiaL_KILLER.

Hi all, discovered a neat floating trick I wish to share with you all if you have not discovered it already. This trick only works on (CTF Citadel map). When you enter the game head for the teleport located within your home base. Before you get teleported to the roof top of your base and land to your feet, hold back as soon as you pass through the teleport then sidestep to the left or right avoiding the beam of light within the teleport then push forward and exit the teleport. As you will notice you will start to float around for about 15-20secs, after that...well you will just crash to your death or close. Use the double jump to save yourself from crashing to your death. One time I almost floated from my base top to the enemys base top. I will keep trying to see if I could get the floating trick to last longer.
