So currently, I'm sitting in the BYOC of Quakecon 06. I earlier got to try out ET:QW, and I must say it's pretty impressive. I'm going to snap some pictures tomorrow and upload them. I'll be using this thread to post them, to anyone that is intersted. I hope someone will enjoy my pictures :D

Well right now the vendors are shut down. So the pictures would be of the strogg flag and stuff and blank monitors. I'll get pictures tomorrow :)

First let me say DAMN. Lucky You. ;)

Definitely Sweet. I am really looking forward to seeing the pictures, and if you can, definitely elaborate more on the gameplay itself.

Things such as how much does it incorporate from RTCW: Enemy Territory.

How different/same is it compared to BF2?

What type of rig are you on and how is it running?

Things like that...

I am highly anticipating this title, so share anything you can. (Y)

Enjoy your time there. :yes:

I live in dallas so yes I suppose I am really lucky :). I have no clue on the rigs, I'll ask tomorrow. It ran smooth as butter on the LCDs we played but there were larger LCD TVs that seemed to have some frame stutters. It looks freaking amazing. It's MUCH better looking then BF2. It still seems to be objective based unlike BF2 but more like the original ET. From what I remember, it's a lot like the original ET, except updated to the strogg invasion. Some of the objectives are like hacking a terminal or breaching the sewers. That's as much as I know now. It's hard to figure it out with the sound as it is, but it is amazing.

That video is classic lol "I'm gonna try to do this...with god mode" :D

Game looks alot more impressive that what I've seen previously. It doesn't just look like a BF2 knock off for one, and graphically it looks pretty nice now. So far so good, let's see if they can put out a complete game.

Ok I snapped a couple just walking by before they started up any games.

As you walk into Quakecon you are greeted with 2 large LCD TVs playing the ET:QW Trailer on loop.

At the ET:QW Booth there are 2 sides. This is the Strogg side. The top LCDs are controled by PCs in the back, most likely with people playing that know what to do, and therefore show off the game in all it's beauty.

An overview of the ET:QW booth. Don't complain about my crappy picture taking skills :)

Nice Oompa. Thanks for the additional info.

Also the video is amazing, I am watching it now.

I love some of the original names they came up with for the tech. "Mega textures," "Stuff Engine." Classic stuff. (Y)

Still curious to see what kind of Rigs they are running it on, because it appears to be running smooth as can be, and I am now wondering when and how much I have to upgrade. :cry:

I am so much looking forward to this game now than I already was. Looks just absolutely amazing in all regards. :punk:

hey, thanks!

total noobs playing there :D

No problem. (Y)

And :rofl: That is exactly what I thought too, whoever this is playing it is not good at all.

For whatever reason, I really thought it was hilarious that every-time the guy uses the Rocket Launcher he insists on right clicking and zooming to get it locked? Just shoot the dam rocket already without the lock!! Have some guts! :laugh:

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
