From our friends on Gamespot a UT2k4 Preview from the nvidia event
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/ut2004/preview_6077240.html
One thing that Epic had previously considered for its onslaught mode was how to handle usable vehicles that had been flipped over. The last time we played the game, Epic representatives had explained that they were considering either having a vehicle be destroyed immediately if it flipped over or possibly letting players manually flip overturned vehicles, like in Bungie's popular Xbox shooter Halo. Epic seems to have chosen the latter; we were able to flip over vehicles by walking up to them and pressing the "use" key. We definitely like this method better, because the onslaught maps seem huge and definitely don't seem suited for extended periods of walking.
