    man I always wanted a sci-fi battlefield style game and this is it...I was really interested in the concept when it was first announced...but after reading this quake wars is my #1 game that I'm looking forward to...

    one thing that I'm EXTREMELY happy to see is that players can actually be stealthy...people hiding in shadows and reading that a sniper who zooms in on a player while hiding can barely see him is really cool...I hate it in battlefield games where player models just stick out from the surroundings making them extremely easy to spot...

    Holy crap im blown away after reading that. The megatexture stuff sounds too good to be true? A 6GB land texture that uses 8mb video memory, but without any resolution degredation? ***? lol

    this seems to be the ultimate online gaming experience
    I am going to buy this on release.

    however i can't believe that the game will run like quake 3

    when is this coming out? theres alot of great stuff in theory

    driver consent - in BF2 when im solo-ing a vehicle ie i like to sneak up to a base and then switch to gunner to shoot the enemy...i hate it when some bastard jumps in my car and starts shooting stuff randomly and blows my cover

    foliage hiding - i found in pretty unrealistic in AA when someone with a M4 can see a sniper at the same distance and out snipe him.

    yeah the clan community is still going strong at least

    also new info about the game from the recent cgw peice:
    # Human Classes: Field ops (fire support/machine pistol), Engineer (defense and support/shotgun, mines & traps), Soldier (duh/machine gun, LAW rocket launcher), Medic (support/ assault rifle &grenade launcher) and Ranger (sniper).
    # Strogg Classes: Tank (your basic stormtrooper/Bosonic Orb gun), Oppressor (heavy weapons and lightning gun), Constructor (engineer/nail gun, EMP charges), Meditek (medic/unknown weapons) and Infiltrator (sniper/rail gun).
    # Just from looking at the screens, Marines have tanks, helicopters, mobile radar, anti-air guns, mechs, fast attack hover fighters and amphibious assault vehicles. They don't talk much about the Strogg, but I assume they will have similar units. Except they ARE the vehicles. I think...
    # Strogg have an anti-gravity jetpack type unit.
    # id is looking to bring ET to other properties, possibly Doom.
    # No plans to support bots, although there are some single player training missions.
    # There's some sort of XP/ranking system similar to Battlefield 2.
    # As far as tech stuff goes, they are using the Doom 3 engine. But a lot of the changes to make Quake Wars more of a multiplayer friendly experience has been done in-house over at Splash Damage. Expect 32 player games.


    anyone have any scans?

    That article makes me hard !

    It looks to good to be true tho - a 6 GB texture compressed to use only 8Mb of vid memory ?? I hardly think so . For sure this new game will need some heavy duty computer hardware.
