return to castle wolfenstein: enemy territory

[Robot]

Do any other psuers play this? it's hilariously fun, and the best part, it's free. like, completely free

you can be several classes. you have your soldier, who's the basic grunt and can use all of the uber powerful heavy weapons (like the panzerfaust), your medic, who can heal and revive comrades, the engineer, who can plant land mines and dynamite and also has a grenade launcher rifle thing (the best gun in the game, really), field operative, who can make ammo, toss smoke grenades and call in extremely destructive airstrikes (at rank level 4, it's two passes of airstrikes), and covert operatives, who are the coolest guys in the game because they can steal the uniforms of enemy officers, and are equipped with satchel charges that you can use to blow up people or enemy command posts

it's sort of like planetside int hat you gradually gain exp for doing your job or killing people. there are several individual sections that you can gain ranks in, that increases the effectiveness of those. for example, getting a level 4 soldier rank lets you run fast with ANY weapon equipped (normally, things like the panzerfaust cut your speed in half as you move with them.) and getting a level 4 rank in light weapons increases your accuracy with guns. you can get it at fileplanet, just search for the name

you don't even need return to castle wolfenstein (the retail version) to play it. that's why i love it so much. and launching rifle grenades is fun fun

yeah I play it, and OH MY GOD IT OWNS! :D

ok a couple of things.
Field ops cant throw smoke grenades, they can throw airstrikes and artillery strikes. In RtCW u often said smoke grenades to a lt:s (or a field ops now) airstrikes so u do that now also.
But its accually the covert ops taht throw smoke grenades, and they are really good too.

and also at level 3 light weapons u get better acc, but who cares?? Oh and at 4 level light weapons u get DUAL PISTOLS! thoose are cool :D level 1: better use of light weps ammo 2:faster reload

there is also battle sense that I think u gain from staying allive among other things that I dont know of.
level 1:binoculars lev 2: faster regeneration of stamina (that u use to run) lev 3: more health (not really much more) lev 4: the abbility to see mines at close range.

Bah you have too play medic. being able to heal yourself and teammates and still being able to fight is God-like. Even at level one the ability to respawn were you were killed without waiting or going back to spawn wins games. A level 3 Medic can revive teammates at full health Allowing you to run like a madman jabbing revive juice at every dead body you see without having to drop med-packs.

I play ET under the name Derfud. You can find me mowing down Americans on the beachhead map :D

I've played a bunch today and it's pretty cool. :)

Oddly enough plain soldiers (who can man handle the uber panzerfaust, mobile mg42 and the flamethrower) are usually the less played (at least on the servers i've seen).

Anybody got tips for the mortar? That thing is hard to aim without a scout buddy.

That's because plain soldiers are totally useless and the PF is a noobstick. LT is the best class in unlimited life Wolfenstein, because if you choose medic, you will get stuck with a bunch of idiot LTs that don't give ammo. RTCW is one of the 3 best games I've ever played, but ET for me, is a big cluster fuck. Just run around firing and everything moves so fast you can't keep up with the action. If you are willing to spend $20, you should go pick-up RTCW.

Heh, if i was gonna buy an FPS i'd get Raven Shield or SoF2. :)

[Hamma]

SoF2 was allot of fun, good game :D

[Doobz]

Well, I wouldn't exactly say SoF2 was a great and quality game, it was great for stress relief though :)

anayways, i played some Enemy Territory today, didn't like it at all. I like my WWII experiences to be a little more authentic then that.

This mod, for example, looks to be a nice quality, authentic WWII mod for HL2.

yeah not many plays that class in RtCW either.
only medics and leutenets (man I cant spell that name, lt:s is field ops in ET). Soldiers cant do anything but kill, the others can kill and do other stuff, and theyre weapons is great too.

I took RTCW:ET to LANtrocity in Sac a few weeks ago. We had a blast playing this freebie!
