Quake Wars delayed until 2007
Those slavering at the chops in anticipation of an autumn release for id's latest FPS are in for a bit of a disappointment, as developer Splash Damage reckons the game is unlikely to appear this side of Christmas.

The news appeared on US website Gamespy, as part of a developer diary.

"The team here has given extraordinary effort towards completing the game this year," said Splash Damage owner and lead game designer, Paul "Locki" Wedgwood, who spoke to us earlier this year.

"Unfortunately, sometimes effort isn't all you need - sometimes you just need more time."

Exactly how much time is unknown at the moment, but Locki reckons the team are entering the beta stage of development, and will be putting all their efforts into testing and balancing the multiplayer game before confirming a release.

Enemy Territories: Quake Wars was originally pencilled in for a late 2006 release, but as it is, may not appear until some time into the next year. We'll keep you posted on its progress.

Awww Man!!

I was looking forward to this game than anything else,guess EA will be happy since there won't be competition for 2142..Hope they release QW this year itself or I guess I can look forward to operation flashpoint 2,joint operations and other cool multiplayer games which are having bigger maps than the battlefield series.
 
Is this game based on DX9 or DX10??? :S...
I guess, theyll be redoing the code for DX10 Support, if they release it next year..
 
Aah okie...

I have to take a closer look at the screenies then :P..

Okie yup. It has the plasticy feel to it :ohyeah:
 
good thing. i don't think SD want to release a half assed game. id's probably tightening the ropes on them after Q4.
