here’s a quote from the article. imo this is the stuff the ET players wanted to hear:

A: Having descended to destroy the Ark’s samples and research data, the Strogg must first fight their way past the Global Defense Force (GDF) and build a bridge to allow their heavy vehicles (such as the Goliath Heavy Walker) easier access to the biodome. Success here moves the strogg spawn forward, provides more vehicles, and pushes the GDF spawn back.

B: An oppressor-class Strogg (which deploys missile silos, plasma mortars, etc.) must destroy the reinforced biodome doors with its strategic strike gun. Vehicle access becomes more limited, and local infrastructure, such as antennas, support buildings, and storage facilities, forces players to fight on foot <= awesome :slight_smile:

C: Strogg must infiltrate the biodome complex before finding and fragging the research facility below. As infantry faces off under artificial lighting inside, fierce snowstorms limit visibility on the surface. <= even more awesome, all are forced to fight in the building, and gone are the vehicle noobs :slight_smile:

Nice :slight_smile: Is there more in the mag that is interesting?

Everyone is double-posting these days…

just a bit more text, an image of a new map and an image of an icy world. nontheless the article lets me relax: within one single map you have all types of gameplay: with vehicles, combined and without vehicles. so the vehicles won’t be that much of a problem, as some feared. so quake wars is definitely in no way similar to battlefield 2 and imo any comparison with bf2 is an insult to quake wars :smiley:

About the double post, i got an error so that would be the cause of my double post.

It seems that vehicles are something to approach your target, then to finish it by foot near the objective. I think you can see it like goldrush. First escort the tank to blow open teh bank doors and then go for the objective. The diffference in ET:QW is that you can drive the vehicles yourself to its target.

Thanks for the info!

I suspect the SMTP error happens when someone in the thread has email notifications enabled.

Could we get a scan of it? Just host it on putfile or whatever.

(ParanoiD) #14

Even I could host it on my clansite :), Its a free host :slight_smile:
