ET:QW Demo out tomorrow!

[Mblaster]

Didn't run great on my A64 3500/6800GT, but was playable at 1440x900 medium/low settings.

Seems like a fast paced version of battlefield 2, although I didn't really know what was going on for the most part i still managed to rank up 2-3 times in the first game

its runs at 10 fps on my set up .frame show.
amd x2 4600 2 gig ram 88000gts,at 1680x1050 turning settings down still bad frames.i got the latest nvidia drivers.whats wrong,

im having same probs as u mate. I just uninstalled it. its obviously a driver issue or bug of some sort.

I ran it last night on my 7900GTO at 1280x1024, it was very smooth.

I'm using the latest official nvidia drivers - v162.22. Some beta drivers were released yesterday though, so they might be worth a try too - v163.67

Running 1680 x 1050 / 2x AA / 16x AF / Vsync On:



Very stable 30FPS but it takes a few seconds at the beginning of the round to smooth out:



Not amazed though, there's still some glitches and if you look closely at the bridge it's pretty messy.

EDIT: Full size screenshot available HERE - the file's slightly compressed but you'll see what I mean.

On that rig, it should run extremely well, so it definitely seems like a driver problem.

Something that has worked for people on the ETQW forums is going to the nVidia 3D Settings panel - and change it to the single-display performance mode setting. It's quite a common issue.

I've not been following this all that much. I've just downloaded the demo and I'm about to give it ago.

Is it anything like Planetside,Will there be a sub each month when it's out, also do you stay on the same server or just join any server when you fancy a game like BF2?

Thanks

I played this for an hour and...I won't bother getting this. Run fine (widescreen too ) but BF2 did everything that ET has, and that was 2 years ago.

Im downloading now.

Should have it in less than 10mins.

Well if it has half the bugs BF2 does it's got to be better.

im at the back of a half hour wait

I really like the look and the feel of the gameplay, feels a lot better than bf2142, more like bf2 in a quake universe.

Nice touches include the option to select the missions you want to do, i suppose this is supposed to support more squad based play.

Nice weapon choices and plenty of kit to use.

The moveable grass is a pain in the ass whilst sniping though! damn realism!

[alsenior]

it ran fine on my system i just turned all of te setting to normal and aa and af off

Isn't that because, in that screenshot you havent finished building the bridge yet?

[finlay666]

yep indeedy, was the same in the wolfenstein version

game does look good to me, nice textures and easy to learn controls...

downside....no parachute that i have found yet... (found out the hard way when i bailed out of an aircraft!)

[tigerboyce]

[badass]
