Sweet! But I guess this means no public beta?

Also, Canadians tend to get screwed. They always consider us "North American" though we never get the preorder stuff that the US gets.

Yeah yeah... they can put all the extra candy in the box they want, but I won't be buying this unless I get to test it first (a demo would be fine) :p

Just to be sure it doesn't turn into another quake eye vee

If I'm not mistaken, there will be a demo but it won't be released until some time after the full game hits the stores.

The May issue of PC Gamer has confirmed that there will be bots available in Quake Wars.

Quote:
Here is an extract from the May edition of PCGamer. The interview is with John Dean the man behind the Fritz Bot mod for Return to Castle Wolfenstein who is now employed by id Software.

PCG: How has bot AI and waypointing been improved for ETQW over Fritzbot or bots seen in other recent games? What will we see that hasn't been done or tried before in other games?

Dean: The great thing about ETQW is the emphasis on teamwork. Every objective requires the team to work together to complete the objective, and the bots understand this and will work with you and each other to complete that objective. Medic bots will give health and provide cover as an Engineer builds the bridge. A GDF FieldOps bot will hand ammo to needy teammates, and call in fire support to break the enemy defenses. Covert bots will sneak behind enemy lines looking to cause trouble, like disabling enemy deployables, ect.

Well then having no immediate demo I guess I will have to wait x number of weeks... to bad for them, I won't be adding my sale to the crucial "first 2 weeks" period when most games sell the best and can be judge as a success or not. :p

same here - i'll be buying a new pc at the same time and i don't want to have wasted the money the way i did for doom 3.

either way i hope the release date and the pre-order options become global. haven't seen anything on uk/europe yet.

I think a lot of people here feel that the doom 3 engine has been less than stellar when it comes to multiplayer... I think the raw player numbers in the last 2 games to bare the engine have proven that. I'd really like to play this first and get a feel for it before committing
