Reckon unreal and most systems can take this kinda model?

Well, I don't see how hard it can be. If every single mesh from KF was spruced up a bit, I guess all the "new" assets and old code can be moved to UDK3 for uberness.

or maybe somebody just normal mapped the model in 3dsmax

Lolno.
That's over a million quads for ya.

tanslates into roughly 2 million triangles... a few ut3 levels have well over 60 million triangles on scene at a time.... na i think it'll work out fine

I don't see why the current engine wouldn't handle it; you should be more concerned whether the end-user's machine itself will be able to handle it. It's an unnecessarily high detailed mesh, you could achieve more or less the same quality (or better) using bump/normal mapping or what have you.

I've not yet played a game that uses over two million polygons for a character.

That's because all the game designers either get lazy or don't have the budget/time to make them detailed enough. However, we(by which I mean the people that aren't constrained with time/money) can develop something like that.

Heh.
You never really made a model, did you?

That gun doesn't go up to a million faces.

If he would've dabbled into character modeling, he'd know that there's hi-poly meshes with a couple million of polygons and that those are in fact not hard to make at all with the right sculpting tools.
Those are never being used in games though, for obvious performance reasons, NOT because the game designers "get lazy".
You don't even need anywhere close to that many polygons.

Normal/displacement map baking ftw.

Oh the irony.

You guys realize that the op pic was used to bake texture detail from? That IS in the game. Just no normal maps sadly.
