Bethesda Teams with Splash Damage
Bethesda Softworks and Splash Damage have teamed up to work on a new, yet-to-be named, project, the companies announced today.
The partnership will be for a "long-term development project," according to the press release. When contacted for comment this morning Bethesda said that it would not include work on their counter-terrorist shooter Rogue Warrior, but rather a completely new project.
Splash Damage, for those of you unfamiliar, is best known for their work on multiplayer shooters like Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory and Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars.
Hit the jump for the full release and to kick-start the rampant speculation. More »

Final Enemy Territory: Quake Wars SDK Available Now
Good news software enthusiasts! The final version of the Enemy Territory: Quake Wars software development kit is available on the Quake Wars community site. Along with the now complete SDK, players can download the MegaTexture Media Pack to create new in-game surfaces.
Even if you aren't the crazy, self-sacrificing DIY programmer type, any ETQW fan can appreciate that a full SDK means new, full maps and mods are on their way. Now if only those crazy, self-sacrificing DIY programmer types would get off their asses and do some coding...

demo day
Quake Wars Demo is Live
The Enemy Territory: Quake Wars demo is ready for download on the game's official site. It actually supports both single and multiplayer modes, so you can kill bots and friends alike. We actually saw the featured map (Valley) in Leipzig and I can attest to it being both large and beautiful. And if this Mac were only a PC, we'd be base jumping off mountaintops into enemy bases instead of just telling you about it. Maybe it's time for that Vista install.
Anyone who completes the download, hit the comments and let us know the size, experience, etc. Because we want details. And we want you to do our job for us. Hit the jump for the full press release.

Splash Damage Talks Quake Wars and Karma
Paul Wedgewood, founder of Splash Damage, loves his game. Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is distractingly fun to play for him. It's so fun, in fact that there were times during our talk with him that he seemed to forget for a second or two that we were sitting there with him, interviewing. He seemed to get lost in the game... the best sign, I think for a game still under development.
And it makes sense, after all Splash Damage started out as a mod group, one that landed the multiplayer aspect of Return to Castle Wolfenstein. After completing the game, which was released for free, they landed the full triple-A retail build of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars.

Quake Wars Beta Goes Live*
* Sort of. FilePlanet subscribers were treated to an early look at the tactical first-person shooter Enemy Territory: Quake Wars last night, as Splash Damage opened up the public beta for a very limited sneak peek. According to the ETWQ community manager, this small subset of PC gamers given beta keys will not count against the previously mentioned 60,000 public beta slots. The demo is expected to be opened to a much wider audience later this week. More » -

Quake Wars Gets In-Game Ads
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars seems like it's been in development forever. We're close to a public beta, but a release date? I'm sure it's another one of those "when it's done" sort of things. With an online game such as this, expect a great deal of post-release development as well. More » -
