[RosOne]

Psst...

Badger - The terrain is rough and you need a way to get there. That's where the Badger comes in(...)

Armadillo :)

[T-1000]

hey thanks :D

[Salteh]

This article is awesome :)

[Genesis]

It really is an excellent article.

Is it ok to reproduce (aka, shamelessly copy) this on community sites?

[badman]

You know, it would be great if you guys could make translated versions of this available on your sites.

[Genesis]

That can definately be arranged :D

[Infernalis]

Yeah, it's not you that is going to translate Gen :mad:

:p

[mortis]

I could translate it into French and Spanish, but it would be better if some native speakers would step up and take charge. I'll do it and post it to my site if there are no volunteers...

[Genesis]

Yeah, it's not you that is going to translate Gen :mad:

:p

Lazy boy, get to work :)
I'll be doing EN -> NL today :P

[led]

currently going to french...

edit. Can we have a first version of the document which were traduced ? Because some terms will be different like medic, gameplay, fieldop...

In ET, we often keep the english name or made our own traduction. On qw, there will be more officials traductions. If we speak of the same thing with 2 names that will sux.

[Hakuryu]

Might I recommend an expanded version of this article?

For instance, next to the Soldier entry, you might have a popup link describing the soldier's weapon choices.

[T-1000]

nice idea :D
i will try to implement that in my site

[Infernalis]

medic, gameplay, fieldop...
I have doing it in french, just wait to the webmaster to add the entry in the main page.

For medic I said médecin, gameplay=jouabilité, fieldops=no idea, observateur-artillerie? I left Field ops and Covert ops because I find nothing satisfying :(

[mortis]

How about "officier de muntions" for field ops and "espion" or "saboteur" for covert ops? For strogg it would naturally be "oppresseur" and "infiltrateur".

Jouabilité is more like "playability"...but I can't find a better word. It looks like the French sites all use the English word "gameplay" when referring it. L'Académie Française va se fâcher avec nous.

[led]

yep off course we can have a traduction...
But for a quality document, we prefere setting the same words as the officiel documentation...

[Infernalis]

Officier de munitions? I never saw that, especially that nothing refer to artillery. Officier artilleur maybe? Lol I want to see the french localization of the game.

Covert Ops is more close to saboteur I think.

L'académie française? A bunch of old geezers...

[mortis]

In English we have "Munitions Officers" but I don't know enough about the French military to know what title corresponds to it in French.

Ah, it appears the Canadians might have helped (http://www.admfincs.forces.gc.ca/admfincs/subjects/daod/8000/1_f.asp) us out:

Officier Technicien en Munitions (OTM) ?

[Infernalis]

Technicien de munitions (http://www.forces.ca/v3/frgraph/jobs/jobs.aspx?id=921&bhfv=2&bhqs=1)
I don't really think it's that... Oh well I think we should keep Field Ops for now and wait for the official translation.

[mortis]

Très bien traduit. :)

J'ai découvert des petites fautes possibles dans le texte. Je les ai mis ici pour vous.

Le CoverOps peut utiliser leur entrainement spécial afin de détourner et défaire les défenses Stroggs, permettant aux forces GDF de passer et attaquer les les emplacements Stroggs.

Dans le but de compléter la plupart des objectifs, vous aurez besoin d'utiliser les spécificités de votre classe. Ces spécificités peuvent être trouvé au travers de la sélection de votre arme (trouvées?)

Chaque fois qu'ils complètent un objectif, ,votre équipe devra reculer, se regrouper et travailler ensemble afin d'éviter de nouvelles pertes. (deux virgules)

Dévalant les routes en fauchant les ennemies (ennemis, non?)

I added some links to our site and completely removed the description of vehicles, I preferred to add links to our vehicles sections.

[Lanz]

Nice article

[SPU9]

well done - helped me a lot ;)

[Infiltrator]

Thanks, although I was expecting a bit more new info, having opened the site and all ;)

[[SD]BongoBoy]

For the game's localised VO and in-game text, the classes have been translated as follows:

French: Soldat, Médecin, Ingénieur, Artilleur, Saboteur - Agresseur, Technicien, Constructeur, Oppresseur, Espion.

German: Soldat, Sanitäter, Techniker, Feldagent, Geheimagent - Aggressor, Versorger, Konstruktor, Oppressor, Infiltrator.

Spanish: Soldado, Médico, Ingeniero, Op. campo, Op. especial - Agresor, Técnico, Constructor, Opresor, Infiltrado.

And I can't get the Polish or Russian characters to print. PM me if you need them.

[Infernalis]

Ah I know they'll take Artilleur for the Field ops. Espion in the Strogg side however is not as good as Infiltrateur, strange they took espion...

Thanks for the infos :)

[{SAS}TB]

Nice, looking good :D

[mortis]

Ah I know they'll take Artilleur for the Field ops. Espion in the Strogg side however is not as good as Infiltrateur, strange they took espion...

Thanks for the infos :)

Yeah, it is strange. We demand Infiltrateur! ;)

I wonder how they translate "gameplay"....

[{pdX}kougar]

good info thx

[Veldrin]

I'll translate it into Australian...:p

[U.K.Visuals]

wow, this article is very good! we will translate it to german language asap

[shazam]

Thanks Mortis for these corrections ;) I've rectified these "coquilles" and changed Infiltrator to Espion, etc

/me likes the description:

"While objectives vary from mission to mission, they can include: * BUILD IT * DEPLOY IT * HACK IT * DESTROY IT"

:D

[murka10]

good article
btw anyone needing an Estonian version, i can translate it fast xD

Kellegil vaja Eestikeelset varianti? võin kohe tõlkida xD

[[ls.leodavinci]]

suggestion:

for people who havent seen much about ETQW, these vids give lots of nice information about the gameplay (old vids, but very nice)

Could You add Polish flag before the link? It would look much better :p

[Mr_Meow]

Very nice introduction to the game :)

[KrisK]

Great article.
Game Guide before Game realease? Nice :)

[WreakHavoc]

Here is my crappy german translation of the introduction. After i got some sleep, i will review it and make the needed improvements.

[WreakHavoc]

I have already a life :-) I'm just working late at night and while I'm waiting until some code compiled, I translated the article into german. Tha'ts the negative side, if you are self-employed.

[MrPoodle]

sweet as thanks

[WreakHavoc]

sweet as thanks

How can i understand this?

[|GW|R-E-D-R-U-M]

the cyclops looks awesome, will need flanking defensive support i'm sure.
If the maps are too huge though, we could prolly use a few jeeps (or the like),capable of carring 3 or 4.

[Javert]

Good article. :)

[LionQ]

Nice information. :>

[Film11]

Great article! Getting more and more excited as each day passes for this game :)

[Sainted]

At missions objectives it doesnt menture "Capture it", does this mean ET:QW wont feature capturable flag-like spawnpoints/objectives?

[Infiltrator]

They said that it will, although it will most of the time be a secondary objective.

[JiggaJigga]

Kewl. Thanks.

[|GW|R-E-D-R-U-M]

At missions objectives it doesnt menture "Capture it", does this mean ET:QW wont feature capturable flag-like spawnpoints/objectives?

forward spawns will be gained as part of the progression of the map, in other words, as you move thru the map and say- obtain the 1st offensive objective, the spawn then becomes that next objectives start point that used to be owned by the defensive team.

2 pages articles hosted on the LnG website. Although is a clan website, we aim also to spread some informations about "THE Game :cool: ", hardware stuff, news and so on...i don't know how far this will be usefull to italian community, anyway if any ET:QW Community guys want, can add our webpage in the list of links.

I also have a question related to gameplay: the number of player accessing a single class will be limited in each map? or we can see some weird situations like 12medics against 12 Oppressors??!

Did not read anything about that limitation...This could happen, but say goodbye to completing objectives, and winning the game..lol

See ya

[Budo7]

Thats great! Can I use it on my site? I will give you full credit of course.

[tattman1973]

Great job.

Armadillo - The terrain is rough and you need a way to get there. That's where the Armadillo comes in, capable of handling the most rugged terrain. Also has a rear mounted machine-gun. Seats 3.

Seats 5 =D

Im new at ET community and I want to know some basic techniques on the battlefield.Where I can find that kind of info???

[Ifurita]

You can check out the link in my signature. Greased Scotsman also has a nice set of video tutorials. Look in the two sticky threads in this forum.

[madcat]

hi i just got the game and have been unable to use the sniper scope could you please help an old fart like me work out how to use the scope to zoom in on enemy

[LighT_Sh4v0r]

Press right mouse button to go to scope mode, and then use you scroll wheel for zooming in and out. Using default config that is.
