Quake Wars beta release imminent on FilePlanet - Page 4

Soulis6 · 06-20-2007, 09:09 PM

Just got through playing the beta of this for a while. Wayyy to much like quake and to be honest the graphics dont look all that great. Im running max settings on everything with 8x AA and it still doesnt look anywhere close to the screenshots. Also the controls feel jittery and a little floatly. Driving the tank feels more like a bicycle then a huge 10 ton beast.

The first time someone killed me while bunnyhopping across the landscape i almost lost my lunch.

Soulis6, I am having the same impressions as you. Sluggish, unpolished, stuttery gameplay. Yes, it is a beta, but still... There are rumors going around that the game performs so poorly because the beta has been watered down. Due to the file size, the unappealing visuals (All settings @highest) and the stuttering, I'm thinking this is a good explanation. Anyone else think the beta is a major letdown?

I just read that there is no in game VoIP.

ROFL!

I'm pretty sure that was advertised as a feature..

I like how they tell us all of this crap so close to release. Thank god I didn't preorder.

Persistent stat tracking, in game advertising, and no VoIP.

gg.

If you tried it and got too disappointed by it, PM the key and Ill be your ammo bitch 10 rounds while you rake up kills with HAT

Im a good ammo bitch... ask Phir

Seriously I will try it for few hours and than uninstall it probably, so you will be able to play it again.

Noooooooooo I asked first

Besides a storm is going to hit Vienna, I might not make it to morning

No VOIP?? What is this 2002?
I admit I was looking forward to it because it's by the team that made Wolfenstein Enemy Territory and that had some decent objective-based gameplay, but yeah, this is looking pretty ass
