Description:
|
EQ was formed on CompuServe in 1996 by Deathace and some friends who played a pre-release version of Quake. The copy used by eQ was the only available copy of Quake in the UK at the time and was provided directly by the UK marketing arm of ID Software - GT Interactive.
Early 1998 saw Paul ‘Locki’ Wedgewood take over as Clan Leader. During 1998/1999, Clan EarthQuakers won a number of cups and leagues in Team Fortress, before moving over to Quake 3 and Counter Strike in 2000. Come late 2000 Counter Strike was dropped and EarthQuakers became a sole Quake 3 Fortress clan.
With many of eQ also working for the game designer Splash Damage, eQ changed games again and played W:ET under the guidance of DoBBs.
We played in the ClanBase Enemy Territory ladder & BWQ3Proball Cup and eQ is proud of its contributions to the online gaming community - still today, many members are columnists on various gaming sites. These include four on Barrysworld, two on challenge uk/eu, one on QuakeNation, one on Planetarion and one on B0rk. Other members of eQ work for MOD teams (such as Q3F - www.q3f.com and WT - www.wolftactics.com) or help out as IRCOPS on networks such as Quakenet and Planetarion.
Now, 12 years after its founding by Deathace, Earthquakers is one of the largest and certainly the oldest gaming clan in Europe.
Currently captained by Salteh and Tsujigiri, both long term members, eQ has a large squad playing Enemy Territory: Quake Wars.
