New ET:QW footage from Quakecon

Ya know, I'm not by any means a Quake fan, but mann I want this game.
 
I downloaded that this morning. I didn't even know that QuakeCon had started. But anyways, it looks like it's going to be pretty fun. I like the detail in the vehicle models.
 
Looking forward to it. I wish the animations for making the bridge were a little more realistic than just a wrench in the air though.

That would take so much more work. I can't think of any game that has attempted it.
Thing is, would you settle for half-way with something like unfolding a small box in his hands, then throw it on the floor and watch it expand into the bridge?
 
This looks leagues beyond 2142.

My thoughts exactly, this game will replace the BF series. It looks far superior in every way.

I may have to agree with that, and once again, I didn't really like any of the Quake games OR Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory (although the latter was sort of fun, I guess). Whether or not it will be my next "big game" as opposed to Team Fortress 2 though is a different story.

YES, and an enemy killing him would make the box collapse.
 
Well I have really astronomical expectations for this game since WolfET is my favorite MP game ever. I really like how this one is shaping up. Some of my anxieties about it are resolved in this video. For example, from the earlier class descriptions I thought the engineer would be stuck with a crappy shotgun but it seems that in the presentation he picks an assault rifle as an engineer. I was also afraid it would be too 'Battlefieldy' but it seems like it will be a lot better than the BF series. The destructable vehicle parts will give a common infantry guy something to do other than wet his pants when he comes face to face with a vehicle, and the objectives will focus the action so there won't be players all over the place wandering aimlessly like they do in BF2. It will make it playable with a small amount of people instead of needing 64 guys to make the map feel not empty. WolfET was the pinnacle of teamplay, and I expect no less from ET: QW. I think it's about time someone showed EA how it's done.
 
Well I'm buying this game the day it comes out. It looks like it'll run smoothly!
 
Looks good, but a bit repetitive. I mean, yea you play that map once...but what about next time you play that map? and the time after that? and even the time after that?

With your logic, no one has fun playing cs 1.6.
 
logically speaking no one should have any fun playing cs1.6
humanity defies logic :|

I for one am not impressed at all - it looks weak, I just can't see what the fuss is about :(
 
That looks great. Anyone know the expected release date?
 
Video was awesome. I liked how vehicles could be destroyed like that, with wheels being lost rather than the health just going down.
Wepons look ok. I like how you can sprint forever, i mean, you're in the army or whatever... you should be able to sprint for more that 5 secs :p
Graphics look awesome too and i think the game mode shown looked like it could be fun. I like defending some times (Strogg team) and sometimes i like being ofensive (Humans) (on that map).

I'll be getting this :)
 
It's like what BF2 SHOULDA been......

I'll definately get this.
 
I might end up getting BF2142 to fill in the gap if Wii isn't coming until mid-late November.

I just hope this game can come out early '07.
 
It looks awesome but I SO SO SO hope it isn't anything like BF2, as in the way it plays. It looks similar in some areas.

I agree with what you said.
I LIKE the new system of implementing units around the map.
 
Ah, after watching the video again, just like Wolfenstien.

That voice in-game is annoying as hell. :|

Which voice, that General 'Objective Man' guy or the one when you get into the vehicle?
 
Objective Man guy is what makes it a Enemy Territory game though! I'm glad they've kept their roots while expanding other areas.
 
Yeah, I would miss Objective Man if he were gone. The vehicle voice might get annoying, though. It tells you all the functions of the vehicle. Hopefully it only does it the first time. I really hope kept the infantry combat basics the same, with lots of full auto strafe shooting. I really don't want it to be like BF2 where everyone goes prone with iron sights whenever they meet someone. Maybe for really long ranges that's ok but it should still play like Wolf: ET when fighting at the ranges we had in Wolf: ET.
 
Well don't forget that the environment changes, as mentioned in the video. You may be forced to fight indoors for a while so I think it'll be reminiscent of Wolf: ET there.

So if you dislike the way they build bridges dont buy the game.

I for one am looking forward to this game. It's gonna be great.

Why would I not buy it because I dont like one thing? I said I am looking forward to the game right off the bat.
