First off...I'm really looking forward to this. I like BF2, but I really loved the objective based gameplay in ET. That said, does anyone feel that vehicle combat in QW is going to be much different then it is BF2? In all the interviews, they try and say that's it's somehow different from other games, but the descriptions as to why that might be....varying reaction to terrain, stunts, physics, etc, don't really sound all that different.

Anyway, I don't care as long as it's fun.

This quote made me laugh, " We could have had more maps in the box, but we cut them to concentrate on making the dozen we have the best we can make them. "

Translation: We cut the maps so we'd have some material for a quick expansion pack. LOL

Still, this goofy game is creeping up on me and getting me interested, despite a strong initial adversion to it based on the large amounts of unfounded hype that was being generated by both devs and fans. I'd like to at least see a demo before I start raving about how great a game is that no one has seen in action yet!

Those were the most well thought out and detailed answers I've ever seen in a game interview. Much better than other companies who just send a stock PR guy who gives stock 1-2 line answers.

One of the greatest things about ET is the arcade running speed and that you never have to run for more than 15 seconds if you want to get into some action.
