It is a bit surprising the see it has been almost a decade since Enemy Territory: Quake Wars has been released. Quake Wars is still one of the few Battlefield-like games that we GNU/Linux gamers had to this day. Even though full game is no longer digitally available due to acquisition of id Software by ZeniMax, its slim but hardcore playerbase kept playing on few online servers.
