Synopsis

History of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars places before the events of Quake II. The universe is located about 2060 whereas a war burst between the human army called Total Defense Forces (GDF) and the stroggs.

Gameplay

Each player must choose a camp (Strogg or GDF), a class (medic, soldier, technician,…), equipment, and must bring its team to the victory. The combat are held on twelve maps different which take place in a single environment and at one exact moment of the day. During a campaign (defined by a number of maps to play), the player can pile up points of experiment (xp) and improve his equipment and his competences. However, the accumulated no-claims bonus are cancelled at the end of the campaign and the player loses any sound xp then. The characteristic of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is to offer true missions scenarized to the players. At the time of a match, GDF will have for example to build a bridge to take possession of a base of shooting, then with hacker an enemy shield in order to launch a missile and to destroy a building. The stroggs will then have the mission of preventing their progression. This configuration with the advantage of supporting the team game and of creating a true collaboration enters the various classes.
