Re: 6 reasons to stop playing BF2 once Quake Wars is released

1. being developed by ID and Splash Damage who support their online communities;

2. gorgeous graphics that wont require an uber quad-sli machine with 5 gigs of ram;

3. objective based online play that will ensure greater team play;

4. vehicles have destroyable components (yes, u can destroy the wheels off vehicles)

5. laser designated strikes;

6. kickass looking vehicles

2. Have you played Q4? Tell me if a computer that cant run BF2 can run it smoothly, because for the same setting BF2 runs better than Q4

3. They said the same about BF2 before it came out, but with kids playing you can never say such a thing

5. I saw a nuke going off in the video, maybe laser desinated but artilitary dosnt kill everything every time.

6. So did UT2004, but why people play BF2?

I played quake 4 at 1600x1200, 4xAA and max details. On the same rig I can only play BF2 at 1024x768 with 4xAA and medium lighting and textures. The Quake 4/Doom 3 engine runs infinitely better than BF2, you can look at any professional vid card review to see that

so having objectives make things better? what about CS? most of the time nobody goes for the objective...someone drops the bomb, cant find it, oh well, no big deal.....hostages? oh ya, forgot they exist!

so true...lol

bf2 is gonna stay with me since it like its storyline, and its more realistic sortof

From pure FPS perspective both are the same for me with 6600GT, at med setting (2xAA 4xAF at 1024)

Playbility perspective, BF2 stutters A LOT, but when it dosnt stutter it runs very well, mainly becaue the stutter come from the texture rendering rather than the engine itself. With Q4 it dosnt stutter as much but it feels more sluggish overall.

Maybe each person is different, but I would pick BF2 over Q4 anyday (that includes D3.

SD wants to avoid the kind of embarrassing problems people had with choppers in BF2 by setting the learning curve up a bit differently. "The goal behind this vehicle was to create something that newbies could fly very easily,

Yes choppers were very hard to fly in BF2, they took vastly 6 hours to famlirize myself with.
I think SD are just bound to make the game vehicle centric like BF2, it doesn't matter how their classes system is interesting, as soon as everyone uses vehicles, this system is worth nothing.

But i gotta admit i gotta try it just to see the graphics :

I hate babies. there are a lot of them on this forum. fvcking crying all the time.

quakewars looks good. I'll play it. it will not take the place of BF2 because they are both different in their own way.

Re: 6 reasons to stop playing BF2 once Quake Wars is released

I never even heard of quake wars till you posted these links, thanks buddy! This game looks really cool, going to have to check it out when its released!

Re: 6 reasons to stop playing BF2 once Quake Wars is released

those graphics run on the DOOM III engine, you will need an uber machine to see all the eye candy

and all you other reasons, maybe wait untill the game is out and give your opinion ,
