Xanton's Instant Rumble
Fast low-grav ZoomInstagib. No waiting, no warm-up — hit Tab, connect, fire.
In the UT2004 main menu, press Tab and type:
A server with character, not a clone
Instant Rumble runs around the clock — even at night four historic bots keep the match warm. One shot, one kill. Low gravity, high jumps, long arcs. Walk in and you're already playing.
We are a highly ranked clan due to having competitive players, but play for fun. We formed in April 2005 and, as our name suggests, we like to play to the extreme.

ZoomInstagib · Low-Grav
The signature mode since 2004: zoom rifle, one-shot-one-kill, low gravity and MultiDodging — endlessly kicking off walls, dodge after dodge. Fast, vertical, unforgiving.
-
476 maps · ~40 own
A huge pool of 476 map files, including about 40 hand-built DM-XIR community maps. After every match the server picks again.
-
Mutators aplenty
ZoomInstagibExtra, UTComp, MultiDodging, Zound, LowGrav. That is why we run as a Non-Standard server on purpose — exactly as intended.

Bots that talk back
The named Rumble bots answer real questions in public chat — German or English. They chat, tease and trade one-liners.
Every map, one by one
From the home-grown DM-XIR arenas to the full roster: every map has its own page with a preview, player count and origin.
The Zound soundboard
Type a keyword into chat and the server plays the matching sound for everyone. 183 triggers from the original 2008 soundpack — untouched.
Open the soundboard →„Soon I got familiar with UT2003 and started my own server. Called it ‘Xanton’s Instant Rumble’. I configured it as ZoomInstagib server with lowgrav on and a gamespeed of 125%. Some didn’t like it but most of the players who did are good friends of mine till today. Thank you guys!!!"

From UT2003 comes his own server: "Xanton’s Instant Rumble" — ZoomInstagib, low gravity, 125 % gamespeed. Not everyone liked it. Those who stayed are friends to this day.
Back online. Both servers run again — new hardware, a maintained Linux base, the same ports. And bots that now talk back.
