I have scanned the images for your viewing pleasure:

My favorite quote:
But what of other potential distractions? Will there be bots? A singleplayer component, even?
"No" is the immediate answer.

It is not using the Doom 3 engine...it is an advancement on it.
It is pre-alpha code which Edge saw...either means Q4 2006/Q1 2007 release...or Edge haven't seen current code.

Bah, the ET "pre-alpha" previews were 5-6 months before the game was released...though it was canceled.

awesome, thanks dude!

we can't see ourselves ever wanting to work with another publisher

lol, this is the first time i thought of not getting QW: for a second i imagined it were published by EA ... *brrrrrrrrrrrrrr* ... thankfully this was only a short mind-trip :D

imo ayatollah's quote above plus the following should be the answer if the next one registers just to say that he wants bots and that bots make the game better and if they don't get bots they won't buy it:

"Well, developers will always be tempted to add multiplayer to singleplayer, or vice versa, because they're worried about back-of-box features. But if you trust the audience to make the decision, the time you can spend improving things without chasing that perceived must-have feature nets you a much better game."

How about if you agree not to buy any copies, do we still have to finish it?

I'll buy it..so please finish it. The money is allready in a small box with the logo of SD on it. It contains money for a new video card and a copy of (i hope) a special edition of Quake Wars :)

I played ET from the first demo available and stopped because of the fact that ET now has to many cheaters and i will do so with Quake Wars, so gimme!!!

Something else...

How can the real fans apply for beta testing this promissing piece of art?

On the other hand, one may suffice, just to play the game. I don't drink that much coffee anyways.
