Wolfie's crap, well what's next?

[]UBC[ Igor]

As it looks clear the next wolfenstein has been released for underdeveloped gamepad players, I just wander wich game the clan could play next.

It is not that quake wars is boring for me at the moment, the teamplay is better and better lately on vanishing, but I would be glad if UBC could rules on new horizon.

The next splash damaged game is BRINK

A teamoriented game based on quake wars engine. The date is Spring 2010 by now. But it seems that one will be another victim of the multiplatform development as the tester have been forced by the
senior designer to test the game with a gamepad.

No gameplay video for now but this today at the quakecon:

www.dailymotion.com/video/xa65bb_customisation-des-personnages_videogames

If the gameplay is not at least as the quake wars one, I would rather to play soemthing else, and this before the next spring.

Any suggestion?

;D cheers xac

trailer looks good, i guess for the moment we'll have to wait

What about ETQWPRO.?

I still like the game, but would love to play on some other MAP's soon.
Any of you play PRO.?

I'm also thinking about to go back and play some ET. maybe.

I've been playing a bit of COD4 of late! (name's Ace )
I'm also hearing about MW2 from the players, so thought I'd post a link up for it ;D

Looks quite good but the COD4 guys seem pretty hardcore

[moosea]

I'll play ET:QW Pro mod

Got it all installed and a lot of maps downloaded

[]UBC[ Igor]

@sd: What do you mean hardcore?

[belfu]

I've played ETQW:Pro and still have it. The minute Moosea logs on I'll be there to shoot her.....

They only play and talk about COD games and don't discuss any other multiplayer shooters. Stuff like ETQW with aliens in isn't realistic to them.
That's the feeling I get when playing them

[belfu]

COD people are console kids, real men play America's Army
The setting is just the frosting, it doesn't really mean a whole lot, what's beneath is more important. Need right amount of realism and arcade, quick paced enough and team oriented...

[]UBC[ Igor]

I wasn't attract by COD because I felt it as a something provocatively insane.

I was afraid to play something that the media delight to report days after days at the bush time.

I rather prefered kill strogg...

[2ndBadKarma]

I can't help it, but my opinion is that id tech4 sucks. If game uses it, then its like ur moving in tarr and there is a dead elephant between your leggs.

So far Brink does look pretty sweet. Here's a link to an interview also.

Okay I bought it because I was curious and it was the last copy at Best Buy so I thought maybe it would be okay.

The single player is fairly entertaining, but the MP sucks so bad I would have been embarrassed to release this on my own.

Don't buy it, and in a way it is a shame because even an updated ET would have done it for me.

I think a River for ET:QW is able to be done but it would take a team of people working on it, not just McNite as there would be a lot of work to do.

I think going forwards multiplayer games and single player ones should be developed separately and done properly. I am thinking of starting an ET server in NA with China if he is interested, those were the best games ever.

Any takers? Cheers all,

I agree with you about the MP Wolfenstein, it's awful
Played it on Moosea computer and in 1 map got killed 8 times and killed no-one
Then I watched Moosea playing another map (can't tell you which ) but the opposing side had to plant on either an upper or lower door. It seemed that there was only 1 entrance into the building that they had to plant in, so all the defenders stayed in that area slaughtering anyone who made it through
No-one made it, a very bad MP experience for the attackers
SP seems ok though, but still not as good as RTCW imo
]UBC[ K4CH...got ET loaded and am willing to have a go, although when I have played, the maps are massive and I don't know what I'm looking for ;D

You and moosea have said this before about the ET maps. Are they really that much bigger than QW's? I played ET a good bit and I thought that the QW maps were bigger. Is it just the experience of learning new territory for one or both of us?

I could be tempted into some ET. I 'retired' from it a few years ago but I do miss some aspects of it. I was expecting good things from the new Wolf, but since that didn't pan out, I do have little bit of a WWII itch.

[strontiumdog]

It might be like you say Abe, that I don't know what I'm doing that is the problem.
I say the maps are massive, but after running round in circles for the entire game, they might actually be very small
The last ET night that Moosea arranged with Ser's FLC Clan went horribly wrong, as no-one turned up and Moosea got a lot of abuse on their Forum SORRY Moosea
If something can be arranged, then I'll turn up for some games. As long as someone is willing to show me what to do ;D

@rebel

I'll hold your hand and show u around ;D

[belfu]

The original 6 (there were six right?) ET maps were compact enough. It's the custom maps that can be pretty megalomaniac and need quite a bit of playing before you can figure out what's happening and where.

Hehe Blue
Don't be going all girlie now, it's a WAR game you know
I'll pm you and drag Moosea on as well, she needs some help ;D

[moosea]

Last time I was on ET with Blue I nearly got kicked from the server

[ChinaGirl]

re:ET

yes, some maps are huge because so many ppl are doing custom maps and some mapper thinks huge map are fun, in reality they have no clue as to what a good custom map is.

If you guys really want to play ET, you really have to learn 8 map, the original 6 map and the 2 map call RIVER and WARBELL.

Actually, just learn the River and Warbell maps will do. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Nite: is the tutorial for these 2 maps still on the forum?

[strontiumdog]

Hey China ;D
Let's do some ET
Nice to see you around
and Mc nite has gone AWOL on posting of late!
Think he's mulling over many answers

[]UBC[ K4CH]

I understand how everyone feels that is unsure of the ET maps and how to play them, that is exactly how I feel about the ET:QW maps.

With ET being a less robust game in terms of details and player options/commands, it is probably a bit easier to learn (and well worth it). I will try to get on Vanishing Point this weekend and run around as a high ping easy target for everyone to shoot at.

China and I talked today and he is looking into our options for setting up an ET server somewhere over here, so once that's done I will post and let everyone know about it.

See you at the weekend.
