(eRRoLfLyNN) #21

I got into Quake after ET, and can’t wait to give this a go. Was expectin WW2 but man this is a total surprise, in a good way! :smiley:

Nice to get ET it’s own series type thing - a feckin class idea - totally from the Leftfield - well done guys, I can’t wait to play it!

I think this is gonna be some great fun - GG! :smiley:

Looks promising, but I hate vehicles in FPS. Why, why, why? :bash:


(killmachine) #25

me too … u wanna do a 1st person shooter or a racing game? combining genres isnt always a good idea … the reward/upgrading player idea is really good but adding vehicles makes the shooter a LOT different!

i think u guys over at SD read all the comments and i saw some people posting that they would love to see some maps without any vehicles at all, i want to state that out too … plz, plz inlcude some maps without vehicles! so there are also more gameplay variations in one game, vehicles and no vehicles …

hope u get what i mean coze my english is not perfect …

AWESOME!!! i first thought of an ET successor, but this is imo a very good alternation. graphics look great and if SD does the game, then i’m pretty sure that gameplay will be great as well.

my only concerns are the vehicles which make me think that there will be large maps where teams get lost and then we would have a BF2-shitty game withouth fun.

but i’m pretty sure SD will solve this prob.

one question: when can i buy this game?

keep it up!!!


(DWM|Commando) #27

i cant wait for it either, now i can play as if i were in the past, and future!


(easy target) #28

I consider myself completely (and hopelessly devoted) brand loyal. Mainly because ET was free. FYI demographicers, I can afford to buy games and have appreciated being able to play ET for the last few years. But…easy on the sci-fi. I like everything about ET, just needs updating.

I love both ET and Q2 so mixin em would create the perfect game for me wouldn’t it (:b. I see this games potential but it has a few things that I don’t like. Right now this looks like a Tribes 2 / Battlefield clone because of the vehicles etc. What I like about ET myself is the fact that there is no such things in it > Just a fps-strategy game at a high speed with closecombat (Oh and I like to bunnyjump.). Q2 was the first game I bought and I’ve played it since '97, What’s so great about it?. Nothing really, it’s just fun.

Since this game takes place before Q2, it probobly means that we aren’t gettin any Railguns or a BFG. And the game’s supposed to be realistic?, That takes away all that Quake stands for (imo), the rocketjumps, the speed, the amount of damage that can be taken etc. I realise that ET:QW maybe wouldn’t work without big areas, but I would have liked the game better without vehicles and turrets that can be built anywhere.

I dunno what to think, but I hope it will rock :smiley:

Was it supposed to be realistic? I’m a bit unclear on that myself. The fact that there are vehicles seems to imply to me realistic physics.


(makron) #31

Dunno, but in any case I don’t think we’ll be seeing Railguns, Nailguns or BFGs in the game.

but there will be ponies.

Thank you so much Splash damage! This is such great news for all of the communities that DO support ET.

ET is a gift from whatever “heaven” you believe in. Cherish it.

WW2 thing is done to hell. Thank goodness were moving forward.

I played RTCW also since the start. RTCW feels much more like quake.

ET is still the best, and one of the only well done class based obj FPS’s.

One request please, if anyone important reads this.

The social part of RTCW and ET are one of the things that have made great
real friendships for some communities. Please include, and maybe expand on the
Vsays, and for goodness sake PLEASE dont get rid of them :slight_smile:

And with that, I give you a link to an ET song I wrote for a friend of mine:

Enjoy, and thx again SD!

When did a community ever want anything different besides more of exactly the same thing they have now? I mean communities like in w:et doesn’t even appreaciate new maps before they are forced to use them in competitions.

So the ET community wants rtcw2 with more of exactly the same things as in ET (hence the need to whine), but the game community in whole seems to look forward to the game. Nothing new under the sun, it’s just the way it is and always has been.

Just a personal little rant, not exactly directed to you S.P.G but you triggered it. :slight_smile:

(and yes I know I generalise like a madman.)

It amazes me the number of people who think a class/team oriented FPS in a different setting will be somehow worse than one in the Wolfenstein universe. Surely it is the gameplay that matters ?


(chr0nicles) #36

Whooohoooo! This is the best birthday present i’ve had in years, i will buy this game hands down!


(EvilBaga) #37

ET broke new ground in playability, not graphics.
Hopefully this new game will do the same, though, adding so many weapons and vehicles
sounds overambitious (read greedy).

If it works…great. If not, there will be an awful lot of people switching to other games (then again we didnt pay for this one did we?). Also I never liked the Quake Genre much.

Then again, its SplashDamage… how bad can it be?

I guess all I can say is Im tentatively optimistic.

See, I told you they weren’t working on Wolfenstein ‘X’ [insert number here] :rolleyes:

It’s certainly good to see some info on what SD has being cooking in the cauldron has bubbled to the surface and it’s good to see Enemy Territory being taken to the next step. GG to the SD crew, word.

No doubt more info will surface during and as a result of E3 iver the next couple of days.


(M8DNephelim) #39

There was a ET: QW Trailer @ E3 yesterday. Cant this trailer be found anywere on the inet?

if it doesnt have ponies, it better have koekjes!

and if it has flaws, modders can always fix them later :smiley:
