Final file size is yet to be determined but it will almost certainly be quite large.

More like 2 weeks. Anyway, EA/DICE finally released the 1.4 patch for Battlefield 2. Grab it from Fileshack or Branzone Category: TribalWar | 10 CommentsTags:Team Fortress 2 Gameplay videoSubmitted by: Got Haggis? @ 06:28 PM | Sunday, January 14, 2007 | (url: )It looks like the gameplay video of TF2 was released a bit early. It's not on Steam yet, but you can stream a version from this site. Personally, I'm looking forward to TF2. This video made the wait that much harder. Category: TribalWar | 12 CommentsTags:Looking for the 1.4 patch for BF2?Submitted by: Got Haggis? @ 06:28 PM | Saturday, January 13, 2007 | (url: )As many of you know, the 1.4 patch for Battlefield 2 was due to arrive today. Apparently, this is not the case. It will be delayed at least 24 hours due to some last minute bug squashing. This information was sent to the bf2 ranked server mailing list, but apparently will not be made public. EA really knows how to manage their community, don't they?

It just went into beta last week. We're about to release a new set of levels for Marble Blast Ultra on Xbox 360. We did a whole new set of multiplayer maps that are actually a lot of fun. Then we have another game that's in the early stages of development that's going to totally rock. We will give you much more information on that as we get closer. Shack: Anything related to Tribes? I'm sure you guys get asked that every day. Mark Frohnmayer: It actually is in a lot of ways a gameplay homage to Tribes, but it's a very different genre. Joshua Williams: It's going to be cool. Mark Frohnmayer: It will be cool.So what do you guys think, will it be cool? ;) Read the full interview here Category: TribalWar | 0 CommentsTags:New Legions videos from Garage GamesSubmitted by: Got Haggis? @ 06:28 PM | Saturday, January 13, 2007 | (url: )A couple of new videos popped up on the webtoday that are Legions related.

Category: TribalWar | 11 CommentsTags:Enemy Territory: Tribal Wars?Submitted by: Got Haggis? @ 06:28 PM | Thursday, January 11, 2007 | (url: )So if you attending Quakecon this past weekend (and really, why would you when UVALAN was going on??) you may have seen ET: Quake Wars and noticed that the Strogg have jetpacks. Well, one of our forum members, afex, pointed out that the Icarus (the Strogg jetpack-vehicle) has a function that works a lot like skiing in Tribes. Well I went over to the Splash Damange forums to do a little "trolling", and much to my suprise, one of the devs replied. I was fully expecting (and hoping!) that someone would do a Tribes mod when I was writing the skiing code. As it currently stands it is a more noob-friendly form of skiing (more T:V-esque), which was done in an effort to make it actually usable for people that aren't part of the Tribes-hardcore community I'm intending to kick-start any Tribes mod's development after release myself by integrating the player & Icarus physics and reworking the skiing to be more like T1 (my favourite). I'd then release that code to the public so y'all can take it from there - I'm a Tribes fanatic from way back so I'd love to see a decent Tribes mod for the game! Most of the groundwork is all there - easily moddable weapons, character classes, vehicles, support for massive terrains, etc. With the kickstart of the physics then I'm convinced that a dedicated team could whip out a prototype Tribes mod in a pretty short timespan.Needless to say, I suspect this news is music to the ears of many Tribes fans.

Bad news for those of us that were looking forward to playing this over the holidays: it's been delayed until 2007. Following E3, Splash Damage and id spent weeks reviewing the status of Enemy Territory. 2006 has been a great year for us, with incredible response from the press and the community. It's also been a challenging year, as the team here has given extraordinary effort towards completing the game this year. Unfortunately, sometimes effort isn't all you need -- sometimes you just need more time. To ensure the quality we want, we've decided to push the release out of 2006 to allow for extended testing, feedback and game balancing.No one likes delays, but if the delay will make ET: Quake Wars a better game, then I am all for it. The last thing we need is another game with a rollback patch.

The investigation is looking into certain stock option grants made by the company from Jan. 1997 to the present, according to Take-Two.I can say one thing for sure: I am glad I do not own any stock in Take-Two. After the 'hot-coffee' drama, how much more can this company take? Read the full article here.

In addition to single player (which should take roughly 45 minutes to complete), it will also include a multiplayer map or two. Pretty crazy to think Prey will see the light of day before Duke Nukem Forever! In case you don't remember, Prey started development at 3D Realms. Category: TribalWar | 4 CommentsTags: |
