Mogul Posted May 17, 2005 But with a BIG twist. Quake II universe. Announcement: http://splashdamage.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=76&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0 pic: http://www.shacknews.com/screens.x/et_quakewars/Enemy+Territory:+Quake+Wars/1/thumbs/051605_quakewars.jpg Looks like Battlefield 2042 instead of a Quake game, but I have to admit I'm excited about objective based teamplay with rocketlaunchers and railguns. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jehar Posted May 17, 2005 ohohoho fuck yea. Might lag like shit though. And will it still be free? 0 Share this post Link to post

Sharessa Posted May 17, 2005 Huh, interesting. But um...what is Enemy Territory? 0 Share this post Link to post
iori Posted May 17, 2005 ET was the free multiplayer expansion to Return to Castle Wolfenstein. And a funny alien in the movie 'E.T.: The Extraterrestrial'. 0 Share this post Link to post

For something that was supposed to be a member of an intelligent race, ET sure seemed retarded..."Reeses PIECES." Anyway, I have to say this looks rather interesting. Hopefully the game turns out to be less of a Battlefield clone and more like a MMO version of Quake 2 deathmatch with vehicles. However, if anything "realistic" is added to the game to make it more omg tactical ultrarealism, I'm going to puke. 0 Share this post Link to post

Arno Posted May 17, 2005 One of the best screenshots I have ever seen. I think I'm going to enjoy this game a lot. Wolf:ET style gameplay combined with some sort of Starship Troopers like universe should be pretty awesome. 0 Share this post Link to post

darknation Posted May 17, 2005 doesn't look like anything to do with quake to me... if someone showed me that shot, I'd just assume it was the new tom clancy game. 0 Share this post Link to post

I didn't think Quake but I did think a little of Doom 3 by looking at the weapons being held. Honestly though, this looks like it could be pretty bad-ass. The environment looks good, the characters look good and all those cool war-toys in the backround look fucking sweet. Too bad I'll have to wait a long time to upgrade but when I do I'll be able to play it smoothly, as I probably can't upgrade until after it comes out. 0 Share this post Link to post
Mogul Posted May 17, 2005 Knowning Splash Damage, I'd say we'll be seeing much much more Quake-style stuff in the near future out of it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jehar Posted May 17, 2005 Pity it won't be free... that was a major appeal of ET in the first place, though not as important as the game itself. ET owns MoH and CoD any day. Easy. 0 Share this post Link to post
SulfurOccult Posted May 17, 2005 the title is just terrible. doom 3 lags hella bad online, how much better could this be? 0 Share this post Link to post

spank Posted May 20, 2005 I guess there wouldn't be any point in that, seeing you'll be fighting aliens in the future after all. Anyway, that's pretty cool. (Edit: that was a euphemism! That third screenshot kicked my ass) 0 Share this post Link to post
