Quake Wars demo out.

[Wanted Bob]

I had heard that there was bots in this demo. Can someone confirm this? I am very new to the ET series, and I dont look forward to getting owned by veterans.

Yup, bots-a-plenty, I don`t go online so that`s what I`ve been playing against, and theyaint bad opponents.

Does anyone know a quick way to unlock akimbo pistols?

Also anyone have an issue with the bots where they randomly starting stuttering in place for a minute before doing something useful again?

This game runs really well on my laptop on high settings. it feels like playing BF2 but the fast pacing is like RTCW. i haven really found out how to play the game, all i do is shoot the enemies and drive the cool vehicles.

I loved the beta, I'll have to see if they put some more optimizations in the demo - too bad the map is Valley, it's pretty unbalanced.

My only real gripe with demo is that it stutters like a mofo.

It takes like 15 minutes for the stuttering to end and then the game runs fairly smooth with a few hiccups here and there.

Quake Wars is heavily dependent on streaming off the hard drive, so make sure you have plenty of disc space and that it's defragmented.

They've tweaked the balancing since the beta...most significantly the GDF can now capture the forward bridge spawn point before hacking the shield generator.

I more I play the more and more the game warms up to me. I think I'll be buying this one.

So, my hard drive would be the issue then?

Also, my game started artifacting a bit earlier... I'd shoot the water and it'd turn out all green and pixely then it started happening with anything that had a haze effect, during which my video card started heating up from a neutral 55 degrees all the way up to 85.

And that's never happened before, I think this game has some sort of memory leak or something equivalent to that.
