Enemy Territory: Quake Wars

[FrostyBoy]

Anyone played the demo yet?

Bloody awesome. I loved it, I can't get enough of the damn game.

I am always the Engineer , always getting into the thick of it, making sure the mission succeeds.


Things I loved:
Play as strogg, with their weapons, etc, makes for an interesting war.
Vehicles I love jumping in any available helicopter, flying over and dropping down into the middle of a battle. Especially useful if you need to build/hack anything that is hard to get to.
Graphics realistic, clean, open space, all good to see, I am tired of the usual dark atmosphere of other FPS.

get it, its a great game, am gonna buy it.

It looks good though I haven't played it. I always find this style of co-op game begins to bore me quite quickly, as you are so dependent on your team, which you usually don't pick.

[FrostyBoy]

Engineer don't need anyone.

Haven't had a chance to download it yet, but I'm quite interested in it. I don't like online FPS games except for team and objective based-ones. The problem with most of these games is that they tend to, like BF2, be ruined by stat-whoring, teamkilling and similar behaviour. And most games just don't punish that, though it can be made to do so, to a degree. Hopefully id came up with something good.

Gotta try the demo. So what's the gameplay like?

[Kataphraktoi]

These games are useless unless you play on private or clan servers. And then its great

[Solver]

Yeah, that's a problem usually. I know that private servers are good, but you don't just get in there...

[DrSpike]

You need to be less of a nub.

[Solver]

Doesn't have to do with anything

What he said

But seriously, i never found it that hard to get into the various groups. They have to have doors somewhere

I'm pretty good at it I guess(usually lead many categories at the end like accuracy 60%+, 12+ upgrades etc). I led my team once by spawn raping every GDF as a strogg heavy machine gunner for 5mins. I went AFK then we promptly lost.

So far engineer(GDF engineer with grenade launcher upgrade kicks ass), heavy machine gunner, and sniper(wish long range sniping would just die in FPS games) seem to be the only kick ass classes by themselves. All the others seem pretty dependent on support which may or may not be there on the public server. Medic would be much better if people would wait around a bit longer instead of always respawning ASAP.

I missed out on all the other games like this(Battlefield, etc) cause my PC sucked too bad so I'm not sure how it is in other games, but radar really annoys me. It basically makes stealth, hiding or smart tactical play very hard. I also get annoyed playing vs bots, they basically auto lock on you(instant death) and are no fun.

Spawn raping

[Kuciwalker]

Raping

[FrostyBoy]

Why? I wouldn't mind being raped by a few girls.

[Kuciwalker]

I'm pretty sure you would, by definition.

Looks like this game might also suffer from everyone going Medic. Medics can once again heal themselves, and als it turns out your maximum health increases for every medic on the team. I can just see everyone going Medic in a match with one Engineer to complete the objective or somesuch.
