| Quake Wars: Tactical Assault (v0.21) - File Description |
|
Description:
Quake Wars: Tactical Assault is a revamp of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars' core gameplay, with the intention of creating a grittier, more realistic environment than the base game, while still telling the story of the Strogg invasion of Earth. While Enemy Territory: Quake Wars tends to be a game of shoot first, often, and charge into the meatgrinder, Quake Wars: Tactical Assault strives to be more of a thinking man(or woman)'s game, where choosing your fights and positioning yourself to prevail carries the day.

1. About
================================
QWTA is a straightforward mod in intention; it's intended to tweak the core
gameplay aspects of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, to create a more believable,
more realistic experience, that plays more like a serious science fiction
movie, than an arcade game.
QWTA takes a lot of its gameplay inspiration from a few random(I'm afraid I
don't recall the names.) realism mods that have popped up for the
Call of Duty series of games, and the goal is to get something as an
end-result that plays similarly to those, but in the futuristic setting of
the Earth-Stroggos war.
At present, QWTA is designed to function with any base ETQW map, without a
hitch, and it's hoped that this will continue to be the case through QWTA's
development: while QWTA would certainly welcome QWTA-intended maps, they're
not something that's felt should be required.
As a player, the preview video footage that was released before ETQW itself
was released, spoke to me of a gritty, tactical, bloody sort of game,
involving a lot of thinking and strategy, rather than the run-and-gun-fest
that the released version of base ETQW is. To that end, QWTA tries to stay
true to the perceived feeling behind some of that original footage, and the
impression it had on a lot of people.
2. Features
================================
This is merely a very early release of QWTA. A lot more is planned for
the future, as creating this mod is an ongoing process. So far,
the main features(summarized at the most basic) include:
* Strafejumping eliminated.
* Blood spray effects added.
* Hit feedback beep/flash removed.
* Unscoped/unironsighted weapon spreads increased(accuracy decreased).
* Weapon damages against players increased.
* Weapon damages against vehicles and deployables decreased.
* Player respawn times increased.
* Vehicle respawn and initial spawn times increased.
* Improved spectator-cycling code:
Attack=Next player, AltAttack=Previous player, Jump=Freefly Spectator
* g_ShowPlayerArrows can no longer be set to show enemy arrows.
* Enemy players no longer appear on radar: only vehicles and deployables.
* 3rd Eye Camera is now an "IR Sensor" which will detect players.
* QWTA can detect gametypes of other QWTA servers, not just that they're QWTA.
* No obvious warning messages onscreen when Hammer/DMC are launched.
* A variety of other tweaks: see the changelog for more details.
3. Installation
================================
First off, you'll want to unzip the QWTA release zip file into your
ETQW folder. You should end up with a /qwta/ folder alongside your /base/
folder, inside your ETQW folder.
Next, simply start ETQW as normal, and use the Mod Menu to select QWTA.
Alternatively, you can start ETQW with the commandline: +set fs_game qwta
Finally, find yourself a server that's running QWTA, and give things a try. :)

Posts: 160 | Are you kidding. Strafe running is impossible. Go outside and try it right now with a 16.lbs pipe and see if you can aim with it.
Removing the gimmicky stuff from this game is a major plus.
It needs more realism, not less. |

Posts: 62 | I think you should lower the vehicle spawn/respawn time. It will make things too tough for infantry in the open. People really noob in those things. You should raise the damage foot soldiers do to tanks. At least make the rocket launcher do more damage to them. |

Posts: 160 | Sadly, the mod isn't compatible with the 1.5 patch. Great mod nevertheless. It would be nice to see the tracers go away as well. God awful things ruin the realism of just about every game you see nowadays. Take any number of small arms, and even some heavy arms, and go crazy with them in day light and you wont see tracer rounds. In a real fire fight or war, that would be the last thing you'd want to have your weapon doing. |
