well i think art department has started 1-2 years ago, engine idtech6 was done by then aswell, so i wouldnt wonder if there would be closed beta (or announcement and alpha test play, like with doom a year ago) at this year quakecon.
ye but people, will still see a special ability in quake "OW like", no matter the the actual fact. :D ... but i welcome this change... it gives a new dynamic to a stale duel. ... but i believe most benefits of it will shine in team games.
They still seem to be pushing a team game as their main competitive mode though. I hope the duel competitive scene for it gets some love (lans) and that the new style of gameplay brings an interesting twist to it.
Kind of worried they will just palm off duel and not make any balance changes or anything else to it after release because of this new mode
