[PC] Quake Wars gives everyone the chance to call in reinforcements

Wednesday 10 May 2006
Online gamers will be able to rain down fire, crash to earth, parachute into action and radio requests for transport in Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, once it touches down on PC at the end of the year.

To keep you in the thick of it, the Enemy Territory in-game menu allows players to call in quad bikes, tanks, artillery... and Strogg players will spawn from orbit, crashing down to earth in rocket pods!

We've just witnessed developer Splash Damage putting the game through its paces and it's looking fantastic. The futuristic team-focused shooter has some nifty tricks up its sleeve to keep you interested all the way through a skirmish, and being able to call down an armoured quad bike for a swift spin is inspired.
