I love all of them. <3
Community Question: Favourite QUAKE Wars Class
When the ping feels right, and my mood is right, theres no better class then STROGG Infiltrator. All assault classes are great too, but I like the idea of being very exposed when using the Railgun+blaster for short range only. The first shot better be hit otherwise you’re screwed (QWTA has unlimited-bullet-trough-body Railgun hits!). My second pick is probably medic with assault. When you play medic or tech (and you know when and where you are needed) you get a strong feeling of being the director of the match.
I play Technician or Medic as support or combat. It is always fun trying to play to the best of your Med/Tech abilities, and anyway I suck at the other classes.
You get cool VSAYS -
Hold on I’m going to TK revive you! (very useful for all occasions).
Technician en-route (oh the irony when the person who TK’s you calls for a revive).
As a Tech you get
Stroyent! That delicious goo that heals and makes your guns go pew pew. It also inspired me to make a karaoke movie (don’t mention the porno, some people disliked it).
Spawnhosts! Nothing funnier than being killed and spawning to take out your killer 2 seconds later. They are also great when you realise you don’t have a constructor to disarm that plant.
Insta-Gib! Nothing funnier than poking that downed GDF. Never gets old watching a medic trying to res a corpse. Bonus points when you TK with your stroytool.
Stroydown Use the minus(-) button already! Not enough people do it! Cmon, share the Stroyent!
As a Medic you get
5 extra HP! Free HP is free HP.
Crates! Get points for crushing an enemy. Mega points when you are crushed by your own crate. Also they generate medic XP when you just can’t be bothered getting out of that tank on Quarry.
Insta-Revives! Get that team back up again with drive-by revives. Make the Stroggies regret not gibbing that body. Get Full Health Revives for maximum lolz (especially on Salvage). Also I really like the noise the pads make when you get Full-Res.
I always preferred the GDF, and mostly played engineer or medic. Medic wins because of the supply crate!
The thing I looooove to do as an infil is crushing tanks with icarus, nothing more satisfying yet :D, scramble them then call a vehicle on this fresh tank, priceless
I still prefer to play techie but as I dont have a good battlesense I’m allways on suicidal moves, I usually can take 2 with me but well, killing is killing right?

I had no idea. That’s genius.
QUAKE Wars appreciation week continues with a brand-spanking new Community Question. One of ETQW's hallmarks aside from humongous outdoor maps, vehicle combat, and general all-around awesomeness were its asymmetric factions - the Earth's own GDF army and the alien Strogg. Both sides sported five combat roles to choose from, each with its own weapon load-outs, items, deployables, and unique gameplay mechanics. With so many choices and different gameplay styles available in the game, what we'd like to poke your minds with today is the following question:
What's your favourite combat role from Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars and what makes it great?
Are you a railgunning Infiltrator? A turret-toting Engineer? A spawn-hosting Technician? Let us know in the poll at the top of this post and don’t forget to share your tales of class awesomeness with us, as well.
awesome! and thanks for sharing that …

Ah cool, still wish I’d selected cov ops 1st.
He’s the coolest looking of them all!
Reading back these posts really shows how much creativity the game evoked in people.
This is really hard but I voted Tech as well. Instant gib, spawnhosts, stroy-up/down are invaluable in every situation. But I really like playing all the classes so I could just as well have voted that. Plasma mortar is megafun btw, oppressor would be my second choice.
