dude it is not like Wolf :ET!!! do some research before you ask:shadedshu

 

[joinmeindeath417]

i went to the store, and picked it up and it said "objective based multiplayer"

simply put thats how Wolf ET was.

i have done "research" but to me nothing is like asking people who personally play it, i am not super fond of review websites.

Read that...some good info on multiplayer. Roughly, there's a team deathmatch mode and two objective based modes.

Won't be able to try out the multiplayer tonight myself seeing as I won't be home. I'll try to get some HD videos of both multiplayer and singleplayer on youtube by tomorrow night, if I'm not to fucked up.

The single player is idtech 4 engine while the MP engine is a modified X-box ETQW engine from Nerve Software from what I've read.

And here is another important announcement on release day!

"We have recently completed a development cycle and have regrettably been forced to make adjustments to staff and headcounts," said a spokesperson for the studio.

"Those affected are valued members of our team who have worked incredibly hard on our latest title. We hope that they land on their feet quickly."

The spokesperson could not specify the exact number of redundancies at the 17-man team due to ongoing efforts to secure other work.

So what are your impressions? It's not due here in Europe for a couple of days more, but it was released yesterday in US was it not?
On the wolf forums people are foaming that it is not like Return to castle wolfenstein in regards to multiplayer feel.
Then again when I read posts like "Return to castle wolfenstein was my first FPS" I go like
Am I THAT old? I remember buying Duke Nukem (1) on floppies...

I'm getting a retail boxed copy of Prototype and Wolfenstein for $55 shipped I love having connections

 

[FordGT90Concept]

I'll be playing it tomorrow probably. I just hope there ain't anything too horrific in there. I hate creepy games.

 

[joinmeindeath417]

pretty sure it might be creepy hahah

 

[olithereal]

The singleplayer campain is fantastic. Extremely fun...and not too creepy FordGT90Concept .
The Vail powers add a lot to the game, really fun. Multiplayer is pretty fun as well. No freaking health regen overtime ala CoD, which is a + for me.

NICE that makes me want to get it no health regeneration.

So is it anything like Enemy Territory? personally to you, i'd rather not use ign or gamestop as an example

The average rating from various reviews.

But yeah, I havn't played enough Multiplayer yet to give you an accurate "review"...been hooked on the singleplayer (which unlike the multiplayer has a health regeneration system, but I don't care in singleplayer that much, it just pisses me off in multiplayer.) I'll be playing more tonight.

But yeah, there are elements taken from ET.

Oh, damn. I guess that means I'll only be playing it for a little while.

You, good sir, just made my day.

Well, I can't play it until I find a way to override its display settings (get frequency out of range error on the monitor). I'm searching now...


...still no luck...

You can also try:
1. Right click on the shortcut to Single Player and go to properties.
2. Add the following text to the end of the text in the target line:

+set r_displayRefresh "60"

if you don't want to go into the cfg file.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

That tamed the refresh rate but the resolution is still outside of accepted parameters.

 

[Zehnsucht]

+set r_mode 3 sets the resolution to 640*480

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\id Software\WolfSP\base\wolf.cfg

seta r_maxAnisotropyBias "0"
seta r_debugArrowStep "120"
seta r_shadowQuality "2"
seta r_skipSpecular "0"
seta r_brightness "1"
seta r_gamma "1"
seta r_skipDetailNormals "0"

1600x1200@120Hz is way outside my monitors bounds.


Edit: Yay! I can play!

I changed the following lines:

seta r_customWidth "1024"
seta r_customHeight "768"
seta r_displayRefresh "85"

Goodies I hope I recieve my copy today, or else I will have a sad.

i played yesterday a few hours and i was surprised how well they optimized the game;by default the game put all on high and fps wise no problem.

i'm at the beginning of it and i like it so far ;nice effects no bugs observed
