Thought I'd start a new thread for the free public beta key distrubution phase which takes place over the next 2 day's. This has just been posted over at ETQW community site blog.

ETQW Public Beta - Key Distribution Day 4 (Free Accounts)

We're moving into stage 4 of the Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars Public Beta key roll-out today and those keeping track will know that means today's keys will be for anyone with a free FilePlanet account. As before, browse to the FilePlanet URL below to claim your key and start downloading the client.

Key Distribution Start: 11 AM Pacific / 2 PM Eastern / 1900 British / 2000 Central European
Key Distribution Website: http://www.fileplanet.com/promotions/quakewars/

While this batch is larger than all the previous ones, we expect it to go much quicker. And for those of you who love idling in giant IRC channels, drop by #etqwbeta on irc.quakenet.org - we've got over a thousand people there right now anticipating today's keys and hurting their heads with timezone conversions.

I've been playing this since day 1 and imo it's definetly a winner, look forward to seeing a few of you on tonight :) .
 
Guys just hold your horses for 10 mins the guys at Fileplanet obviously havnt allowed access to free members to download it yet, just hold onto your pants it will be up soon no doubt :D
 
Managed to finally get a key for my mate, just wait until the page starts to take forever to load rather than directing to that gamespy link and then you will know its going through :)

Totally and utterly confused by this game. Methinks an "Official ETQW FAQ Thread" is needed..!

It all seems like a load of fast paced quake-style shooting and not much else :confused: Hate to say this... but I think I prefer BF2, unless I'm missing the point of the game?

It takes a while to get into it, I am now pro at this game :D , also we need more servers to accomodate everyone :(

I actually quite like this game, but you would need a clan to make it worthwhile i think, sometimes you get a really good team and it is really fun, other times you get a bunch of kids who have no idea what they are doing and it makes the game impossible for you

This is true but you need to give the newbies a chance :D , I had a horrendous time on the strogg team last night the emp distributor was constructed and there were no strogg defending the sewer gates which meant they had been hacked within 5 minutes. Short 1337 version : we were owned.

Disable AA, I take it you are using an ATi card, there as massive problems with AA and the ATi cards atm , especially with the HD2900XT.
 
Rather bored of the beta now, need some more maps. If i got bored of the beta within a week Im starting to wonder if its worth me getting the full game?. The problem with Splash Damage is this game was due out a long time ago. They ****ed around and prelonged it so much that the games engine (Doom 3) now looks absoloutly prehistoric.

ive taking this from the beta forums for ET:QW

The devs have already publicly stated that the graphics currently in the beta ARE NOT THE FINAL PRODUCT. They left out the high quality textures from the beta to keep the download small. The game will look a lot better upon release.


I think this is true, from your quote Gerad i think it means the closed beta although i cant be sure of that, again im assuming that the open beta was a smaller file becasue the gfx were bumped down.

EDIT: also saw this command in the same post, meant to improve gfx slightly

Nope I asked Wills one of the developers on IRC, he and a few others aswell as badman confirmed that these ARE the final graphics you will see in the final game with MINOR improvements here and there. :(
