Even if he doesnt like W:ET, he still might like ET:QW.

jep…a clanmate of mine hates WWII games, but thinks he might like QW.

Not playing W:ET because it’s WWII-themed is a pitty… It’s all about the gameplay, the WWII theme is no more than a skin.

Of course, to everyone his own opinion as long as no tapirs get hurt.

Nice vids! I like the voice commands from ET. Like, “Congradulations on your promotion.” But, he doesn’t say what class you were promoted to like in W:ET. :frowning:

Questions:

  1. Is that the same voice actor from ET? Sounds like it.
  2. Does the rocket launcher lock only for vehicles, other players or both?
    3)Like in ET will when you get promoted, will there be some graphic on your helmet or uniform to indicate your rank? Stars? Stripes? Medels?

any chance of the strogg having surprisingly amusing camp german accents?

no? :stuck_out_tongue:

Ok, notheeeng is final but I’d guess you can see one’s rank at the number of dancing bananas folowing him.
The one with the largest herd has the highest rank.

(Rhoades) #47

if not someone needs to make a mod to do just that.

(Rhoades) #48

To answer question 2. It would be logical to assume that it would only lock on to vehicles. A rocket launcher that could lock onto players would be amazingly powerful.

(crumblycake) #49

It’s too bad that most of the vids are from the GDF point of view. Where’s the Strogg?

(SCDS_reyalP) #50

I was gonna complain about that too :moo:

(nUllSkillZ) #51

I hope there is some way to keep it on the road? I don’t want to see my MCP stuck into the nearest trench because a new player ditched it there.[/quote]
Cries for some kind of “speaking navigation system”.
But please with some nice female voice.
:banana:

I bet the MCP cant be driven off a road surface - in effect stopping any noob/crazy drivers from crippling your team.

(kamikazee) #53

And if it could, we’d need a new term along the lines of “teamkiller”.

(Nail) #54

I believe it was mentioned that vehicles had to be suited for the travel surface, so MCP would need big road, while quad could travel on any path or road

That would indeed be funny…or just like another aimbot.

But never asuuuuuuuuuuume anything. :blah:

(SCDS_reyalP) #56

UT has locking rockets. So did some tribes mods, if I remember right. They would certainly be unbalanced if they had the same speed and damage is an ET panzerfaust, but that isn’t a given.

(AtomiQue) #57

You can hear strogg saying “FOR MAKRON” in one of the videos. And no he does not have german accent :-(((

(malarky) #58

Yeah the voice comms we’ve got in at the moment are fun

‘strogg! Strogg! STROGG!’ became a fave when we heard the voice actors audition cuts. Maybe we’ll post some ‘bloopers’ when we’ve shipped :slight_smile:

(Joe999) #59

which one?

(Gringo) #60
