ET:QW Special Edition

(Ragnar_40k) #1

A special edition (and its content) was excessive discussed for Stalker. So I wonder if SD is planning to release a special edition for ET:QW, which could include some neat stuff like a T-Shirt, a metall badge or even a complete reanimation kit! :smiley:
I always liked the Ultima (damn you EA) boxes which had cloth maps, trading cards and other stuff.

Iā€™m not into that kind of stuff myself, I just want the game. But if they just added some fun stuff in the box as standard then why notā€¦ :wink:

I bought RTCW Special edition, so I guess Id but a special edition of Quake wars :slight_smile:

(eq-Shrike) #4

I demand that every box includes a small rainbow-coloured pony with itā€™s own ickle brush ā€¦

I demand you stop milking that pony joke to death

Have you guys ever heard of ā€œLazer tagā€. Example for those who donā€™t know

I think ET:QW should have a lazer tag setup in itā€¦and people could have LAN parties that go from the computer to the grassy outdoor fields.

check that lasr tog siteā€¦ its kinda desparate marketing or what, and kids love the relistic metal guns? the only one i though looked reomoty realist where the ones based on the M4 the others look like metal tubes with a speeker on the side

if you wanted to play ETQW then why would u want to play Lazer tag anyway?

It was a dumb reference to all of us getting off the computer and getting some exercise. Stress the word ā€œdumbā€. :lol:

BTWā€¦lazer tag might be fun.

P.S. not many sites to pick from for lazer tag explanations. :stuck_out_tongue:

i have played lazer tag, but only in arenas

its ok but half the poepl playing dont realy havea clue whats going on and there are so may rules to folowā€¦ no running

and there are no interesting places to go like on thoes picksā€¦ u cant cos of health and saftey and the damger envolved on fighting on rasied ledge for example

get some m8s and go paintballing if u wana have fun :banana:

i just want SD to put out a QW demo so i can try it first. i grew very leery of buying into game hype after i bought CoD the instant it came out, only to discover that i hated the MP portion (SP was real good tho).

anyway, give us an MP demo!

(DG) #11

Iā€™m assuming a fair chance of there being an mp_test

(squadjot) #12

would be sweet

(Fusen) #13

I bought the etpro special edition

(EZtigER) #14

Looks a sound game, really looking forward to thisā€¦

I bought the special box releases of Quake 3, HL2 and the id anthology, if SD release a solid MP demo that cuts the mustard then yeah I would buy a special edition for sureā€¦

Is there any more of a commitment for a release date (quarter) in 2006?

(SniperSteve) #15

So far just 2006 from what Iā€™ve read.

Special Edition would be sweet.
Of course it would have to be something cool. (Hat, T-shirt, etcā€¦) A poster doesnt cut it, and I can write better strategy guides then the average guide. Which is more like info on weapons, maps, vehā€™s and stuff. Normally it doesnt include Hard Core FPS gaming info. And further in a MP only game the game evolves so much over time (especily with char advancement) that most guides are useless after 1 year. Well, coffee mug holder comes to mindā€¦ :smiley:

Airsoft > lasertag

Airsoft rules.

I play it in Mid Hudson Valley New Yrok with some friends. Its really quite fun.

(FootSoulJah) #18

For sure iā€™d buy the special addition, y not eh?

(EZtigER) #19

I hope SD do decide to release a Ltd / Spl Edition. I hope itā€™s a much better offering than the Quake 4 special edition. ƂĀ£50.00 (you are having a laugh).

Special Edition Also Includes:

* The official making of QUAKE 4
* QUAKE 2
* QUAKE 2 Expansion Packs: Reckoning and Ground Zero

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/quake-2_W0QQitemZ8227133949QQcategoryZ27234QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

So for an extra ƂĀ£25.00 you get a behind the scenes video and a game +exp pack(s) that is nearly 8 years old, well worth it :eek3: Considering the box set / special edition is aimed at your dedicated gamer / fan, Activision honestly thought that was special!?

Toffee :disgust:

I think the point with the special edition of Quake 4 is to play through the events that lead up to Quake 4, if you havenā€™t already had the chance to. If I hadnā€™t played Quake 2 to death already, Iā€™d be quite interested in doing this, but (like so many things) your mileage may vary :slight_smile:
