Enemy Territory: QUAKE Warsâ„¢ Announced!


(S.P.G) #41

No ponies i am afraid, What amazes me is you build a big spider robot and give it no guns only spikes to kill your enimes, the strogg deserve to be beat if there that stupid.

Not a “zee enemy is zweakend” in sight, i wonder what it sounds like in Strogg. maybe “grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr meowwwwwwwwwwwww”

That seems to be Quake 4, not ET:QW

Well said. And it sure as hell can’t have better graphics, cause it will kill FPS…

From the little we have heard, it sounds great to me. A bit concerned about vehicles, but as long as they think about balance/playability over “realism” (SD has a nice trackrecord here), it should be alright. :fiesta:

A couple more screenshots up at http://www.shacknews.com/screens.x/et_quakewars/Enemy+Territory:+Quake+Wars/1/thumbs/051705_etqw_1.jpg

Looks like medic with defibrillators instead of needles.

Blimey, those straps look like they would give you some sever chaffing.

I hope SD doesn’t make the maps too big. Big maps have for me and a lot of other people been the problem of the BF series and UT2k4 onslaught mode. I’m also hoping on a feature to disable some vehicles, not that vehicles are bad, but sometimes they annoy me in other games :p. Nice screenshots, keep up the good work :slight_smile:


(dark-tim) #47

screenshots? there is only one screen :stuck_out_tongue: i can’t wait

Wether this game is fun to play, has great graphics, a great engine, new vehicles, weapons and so on isn’t the point. It’s just NOT Wolfie, is it ? It has very little in common with the game the true, hardcore Wolfers love and follows absoloutely no Wolfenstein tradition whatsoever.

Fighting aliens called Strogg or whatever does nothing for me, i’ll be giving the game a miss for sure. True Wolfie tradition is set in World War 2, the 1939-1945 era. J.B. Blazkowicz fighting the Axis forces, with the multi-player as a great " follow on " for us to enjoy online. If you’re one of these people who thinks the WWII setting should be done away with then please start playing this new game and leave the likes of Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Wolfenstein Enemy Territory to the dedicated hardcore Wolfers, you ain’t one of us anyway.

This new game reminds me of a modern version of Planetside, not a new Wolfenstein. I sincerely hope that this game is not meant to be Return To Castle Wolfenstein 2. If it is then there’s gonna be literally thousands of very disappointed hardcore Wolfers out there, me being one of them !!!

Do you have a brain ? Can you relate to the subject being mentioned ? Does your ego have to be massaged every time you post ? Do you ever actually think before posting ? Can you put all the words from your drivel on one line ? Do you even know what Wolfenstein is ? Do you read all the posts in the thread before getting all excited about making your smart arsed comments ? Do you really need to be alive ?

Could you please not use language like that…

:banghead:

When you post a big rant about how this game doesn’t follow the wolfenstein tradition, it’s a pretty big point that this isn’t a wolfenstein game and was never meant to be a wolfenstein game. No need to get nasty.

[BSS]GANG$TA: did it ever come to you that SD forums is about: D3, ET and Q3 mapping aswell as the announcement of ET: QW. When you talk it sounds like you think this is a dedicated wolf community… SD is developing a game called Enemy Territory: Quake Wars and yes: I agree to all that thinks that putting ET in the name disorients people but aswell ET:QW seems based on the idea behind ET and the features and do not forget that SD brought us ET for free and they are entitled to use the name ET in what ever way they want.

Thank you SD. :drink:


(Salteh) #57

I’m terribly sorry… It’s been mentioned a dozen times in every ET:QW thread on here that this is not wolfenstein :slight_smile:
When the 9443903409th hardcore rtcw community person asks the question for the millionth time, are we supposed to give the same answers every time? :frowning:

:banana:

If you were terribly sorry i would accept that Salteh, but you ain’t, just sacastic as usual. There’s ways of saying things to make a valid point and ways to annoy people, you’ve got the latter down to an artform.

I get nasty when i’m disrespected or my views are disrespected and quite frankly pal, you deserved it. As far as showing appreciation to S.D. is concerned, well, i’m there biggest fan. That doesn’t mean however that i MUST like every idea they come up with.

This new game carries the name of our beloved Enemy Territory and will therefore grab our attention, don’t be surprised how we’ve reacted to it. We’ve waited a long time for R.T.C.W. 2 and when we heard about and then learned the facts about this game it freaked every one of us out BIG time.

You lot can play what you like, but there’s only one game for us and it’s called Wolfie, by all who love it.

RtCW2 is STILL in development!!! Just not by SD. Get over it. Use your “Gray Matter” and all will be revealed in due time.


(LaVaGoD) #60

Holy Crap Dr Sues!

So you are telling me that SD can only make games set in the WW2 era?

All this negative feedback to a few screen shots and a article is really wearing thin
