It is and probably will always be my favorite team based fps game.

Lots of fun memories with ET. Perfect balance between arcade and realism for teambased.

yes

dirty bomb is worth checking out

QWfuckingTF

Yes it would be nice if RTCW came back as a kind of quakelive type 'free' game. Im sure many would subscribe and if it does, remember to help out the newbies learn the game, as its the best team game I ever played although Quake 2 UKCCL was intense too!. Even public games were fun and everyone worked as a team.

I still watch the RTCW movies from infensus etc, lots of great players from different countries.

Make it happen iD! I would sub.

There is ET:Live which is a work in progress. Hopefully it's awesome

Not at all. Goldeneye, CS, Halo, CoD 1 and 4 are all way, way, way, way more important than some niche game.

Always preferred aq2/3 and urt to rtcw/et. Even preferred team fortress to it. Best you're gonna get to a modern rtcw in terms of gameplay and competition is dirty bomb. Will be free to play too which lessens the commitment to it. Though opens up the prospect for revenue by sketchy means.

w:et was ok. played it a few times. now...
it's actually placed very weird in the market. i mean.. if u want full WW2 experience u wouldn't play this shit. you go for RO2/RS that game has everyhthing a ww2 needs and will ever need. seriously recommend it to anyone that wants to experience what WW2 was like.

otherwise it was ok. i can't take game that's base on ww2 theme without headshots seriously. getting 3-4 hits on a guy to kill him is a bit of a downer. but the atmosphere was there.
would stick to a more realistic ww2 sim in the end.

That's exactly why both rtcw/et were so awesome. WW2 experience mixed with dynamic gameplay and heavy team play. A lot of modern shooters use elements introduced by rtcw

1 hit for the helmet, 2nd one kills.
Like some weapons on cs

nope. hs in rtcw/et does 40 dmg on helmet, 50 without helmet, so you need at least 3 hits to kill opponent

Ops, too many years...

nope you were right, it's different in ET and RTCW

Only 2 heatshots are needed in rtcw, while it's 3 in ET (in which splash damage introduced helmet damage reduction)

rtcw : high rate of fire, high spread, less HS need to kill and I think higher runspeed than ET -> duels kinda fast and dynamic

ET: low fire rate, low spread -> duels more about tracking

RO2/RS?

not trolling what games you talking about?

Red Orchestra 2 or Rising Storm which is basically the same thing but with japs :D

Ok thx never heard of either

i haven't either not long ago but it turned out it's my kind of game.
you should try it if ur into that kind of games.

I can agree with the first comment, RTCW was and is the best team based FPS game to date.

I got into Quake late, because I was busy playing RTCW. If it weren't for RTCW, I would've graduated college on time and with a better GPA.

I love RTCW and like some RTCW players, I think that ET was a gross abomination of the RTCW game (the hitboxes and anti-lag were so whack). It didn't stop me from playing ET some times, though.

I tried to play CSS/COD/etc, hoping they would be similar to RTCW, but none of them could hold my attention the way RTCW did. It was Q3 with teams and realistic weapons. The maps were awesome, and the vsays are unforgettable.

I would love to see an RTCW port to browser, like Q3 (Quakelive). I think there is a fan base from the younger generation that has enjoyed playing RTCW (i.e.- Strenx).

<3 RTCW (and the community, they were so much nicer than Quake players)

fuck you and rtcw, quake r rulez

Bitch, you're posting in an RTCW thread. There's like over 9000 Quake Rulez threads for your to post on. Step off.

fuck off

No, you.

I'm a Medic!

A great game, no doubt. But template to modern fps? Nope. Other games came first with those features.

/vsay fthealthesquad

dont know about the MP, tried out the SP and it sucked *** ...
legendary Single Player Games for FPS, there are only 2 titles imho.
Doom and Half-Life ... honorary mention Quake One because of its mods, etc. and Metroid Prime, because its good although u play with gamepad
