Enemy Territory: Quake Wars Message Board  

I heard this was going to be MP-only, is that true ?

It's going to have an offline mode, probably a campaign, but the focus is on the multiplayer side.

Yes this game is going to rock/ anyway the game does try to focus on its multiplayer but you will be able to play offline mode as said above with bots with a couple types of game styles

I honestly try to avoid games like this unless it has a single player, story-driven campaign.

Cause the online part is just full of players that jump around like they are rabbits and players that kill themselves to kill you.

Which i honestly think is stupid to do unless it kills 2+ targets.

it seems to have a campaign built into the bots matches. i noticed that when you defeat the strogg or vice versa then you can move on to other maps and zones like you are attacking or defending parts of the world. it started me in africa first and then you move on to other places.


fyi-

No it will have a single player. Probably a campain or skirmishes

The Retail Game has 2 (two) Modes. They are:-

1 - Multiplayer: Online as per normal, and a Network option, which if you want to use, you must have a dedicated server set up on a PC that will not be able to join the created game (So in other words if your having a LAN, you need an extra machine to run the server)

2 - Play Computer: Allows you to play one or more of the Campains which are comprised of 3 different maps that run one after another, your upgrades are carried over for each map in the Campain, but is lost when a new campain is begun. You can add bots, change their difficulty, and set whether or not they attempt to complete objectives.

So it feels very much like BF 2142, only its about 10 times better. (IMHO)

There is no story driven Campain, I wish there was, It would have been awesome if they could have made it work, perhaps all they would have to have done was knit all the campains together, with story and cutscenes interwoven and then allow you to change your class at a HQ on each map, or just allowed you to carry all the equipment, as you pick it up. Perhaps.

At any rate, its pretty cool, I dont normally like these kinds of games, I wont play any BF games anymore after BF 1942 and Desert Combat, But this is something else, it still feels a bit the same, but the differences it has over the BF games is sufficent to make it stand out from them as a serious upgrade to the genre.

I expect it to become *very* popular, but time will tell.

i never played online play before till i tryed call of duty.at first i was excited but then was like this is getting boreing.kill a few ppl then they kill you over and over and over and over and over again.hope ET dont s#ck that bad
