Tasty Quake Wars LAN at E3 News
PC News by Tom Bramwell
You might not be able to rocket-jump into helicopters, but Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is still looking like a mighty fine earth-versus-aliens alternative to Battlefield 2.
That's a link to the preview by the way, and not a picture of someone rocket-jumping into a helicopter - although if you do have such a picture from real-life, send it send it!
Anyway, we mention this because Activision's apparently confirmed that we'll be able to go properly hands-on with Quake Wars over a 24-player LAN at E3 this year - where one level of the game will be demoed.
Which ought to give us a good chance to see how that sexy Megatexture technology - "the whole planet is one big texture!" - is working out, and how the handsome humans and ugly Strogg have been getting on with their mighty war machines.
In the meantime, for more on how it all works, check out our extensive preview from earlier this year.

If this doesnt come out on "that console" (lets not turn this into the usual debate about which is better eh?), my Vista-scheduled upgrades might have to be brought forward.
What? It will only run on Vista? |

With both BattleField style contenders going for this slightly more realistic approach, is anyone else thinking how cool it'd be to have an arcadey/abstract FPS which really *is* all about rocket jumping, and crazy unrealistic stuff?
Not that I'm not looking forward to this, but it seems like there's an opening for an almost Rez style FPS. |

No, 32 players maximum. Well not maximum per se, servers can have as have players as they want (meaning if the computers can handle it) but the game is optimised for 24-32 players.
