Why is it we get screwed over EVERY time, especially for awsome looking games like this one. Quake Wars is supposed to be a huge war game in which you use vehicles and teamwork on large scale maps to achieve victory.

Xbox 360- What do we get?

Charged $10 for 4 maps. Ofcourse they will! "Dont complain about money they have to work their butts off to make them" So why are they putting in in-game add's and why do we pay $50 a year for xblive service?

No mods.

Delayed Patches.

8v8 combat in a game meant for 32-64 player combat. 8v8 in maps meant for fighting triple its size.

Charged $60

PC- What do they get?

Free maps, player made maps.

Mods

Patches & Fixes

up to 64 players

charged $50.

Ofcourse most console gamers dont even notice this.

I actualy have known that for a while and I knew that before I braught my 360 and I only have it for exclusices that the PC doesnt get.

As for games like this Ill get them for my PC only a moron would get it for a console, When it comes to MMO, RTS, FPS games theres only one way to go if the game is multiplatform.

Pc version will be better because Quake games work better on a pc than a console and its a fps.

damn what a shame though, if they could atleast pull off 32 players this game would be awsome on the 360.

They Claim the ad money is for continued support of servers and development of patches Since there is no monthly fee that kind of makes sense.

Delayed Patches.

Delayed? Console usually have more development time so they don't need to patch. That's a great thing about console.

8v8 combat in a game meant for 32-64 player combat. 8v8 in maps meant for fighting triple its size.

darkcast

PC is balanced for 24 players (not 32-64). 32 players I believe is not supported but an option if players choose to do so. So the gap is not that big and I'm sure they will tweak the console to be more fun with 16 players.

I'm aware of it. When they rip us off that much they might as well not even make it for us.

PC versions will be 10 times better graphics wise with the right PC and easier controls with the mouse and keyboard. But I think the reason why PC games are cheaper is because it take more money to get a descent computer to run the game, and they probably dont sell as many copies on the PC as the 360.

I have played the PC version and I was not that impressed even though I was so hyped up for it. It really wasn't that much fun or even better than Battlefield 2.
