    Saw this article over at IGN with 4 new screenshots and news that a playable multiplayer version will be available for testing on their stand at E3. So inspect more impressions then!

    Those new screenies are bloody gorgeous!

    I really hope this comes out on the 'next gen' machines as I can't afford to upgrade the PC until at least next year :(

    Yeah, I thought that too Aga.

    Anyone been keeping up with the articles? Im wondering if there is only 3 vehicles for each side, or if they have only shown 3 from each, the GDF need a tank stat otherwise!

    Does EG have any more news on this from E3? The only thing I can find is a couple of paragraphs in an article about Activision's pre-show press conference.

    If it's based on Enemy Territory, it will have very little to do with Counter Strike.

    It's not one life per player, you respawn and there's different classes with different roles. Engineer plant dynamite to provide access to a forward spawn point or an objective, not to end the round.

    okay, how about:

    arse, looks a bit too team fortressy to me. planting bombs and repairing stuff all day, what a shame. great quality movie though.

    that better? :)

    my point is - I was hoping for more 'Quake' and less 'ET'.

    But its ET not Quake :)

    Looks good, a fella i know has played it at E3 and says its damn fast game!

    Ah OK .. I see what you mean.

    I hope it's more ET and less quake personally but hey.

    Wasn't ET free? How much is this one? Might not touch it with a pole at full price probably. I am awful at online games TBH.

    As if comparing to Team Fortress would be a bad thing!

    The developers did play team fortress for quake world, and made a tf mod for quake 3, so not that surprising.

    (Bump)

    Did anyone notice how many E3 awards this game is starting to pick up? GameSpy puts it above Bioshock, Gamespot above Spore, Supreme Commander and Crysis, I'm very impressed. I was so uninterested in it until now that I didn't even bother to read any preview, but I'm starting to think that it's time to start looking into it. They can't all be mad, I suppose.

    He/she did seem rather poo, all we got to see was some running around and shooting. Nothing really substantial.

    Yeah the vids were quite crap. Couldnt believe his atempt at 'flying' that chopper. Which was basically take off, accelerate as fast as possible whilst doing a barrel roll into a hill.

    Just looked in this thread, but did anyone else see the presentation by id's Kevin Cloud and Splash Damage's Paul 'Loki' Wedgewood? It is from Quakecon 06 at the start of August.

    Download the movie if it's not the same as the IGN one.

    Holy shit!

    Two new trailers - well 6 minute tutorials - are up on EGTV, this looks incredible.

    The maps are constructed in such a clear AAS way with a storyline element to keep the play focused.

    edit - this has just shot to number one in my most wanted list. Any idea of the tech requirements / release date / demo?
