Baker, no one is going to play on your server

It will undoubtedly be an awful, bastardized version of TDM. We will think it is a joke and shun it. Enjoy playing there by yourself.

I view Quake 1 as important because I am absolutely convinced that no game company would ever make a game like the original Quake.

So, for the kind of gameplay Quake offers, it is this.

Occasionally there is talk of a "Quake 5 reimagining the first Quake" and should they make it, it would probably be like Doom 3 doesn't remind me of Doom and how Half-Life 2 might have been an interesting game, but it didn't really remind me at all of Half-Life 1.

A game like Quake wouldn't sell today. So they would have to mess it up in 25 different ways. They'd do stuff like give the Quake guy a set of binoculars, a sniper rifle, make him move slow, give him "missions", portable health packs, 25 different pistols.

So in the end it wouldn't resemble Quake.

If I were to remake Quake 1, I wouldnt go the ultra-realistic approach like doom3.
I would lean more to retro-arcade / b-rated movie / cult-nerdville / robot-chicken like.
Not to be taken too seriously, yet seriously played too.
I think it's kinda funny how on the Start map, to get to the hard level tele u have to jump over lava,
though I cant think of another area in the game where you have to jump over death to complete a mission (except red armor on e3m6).
It's all run and gun pushing buttons... Would be interesting if it was more like the side scrollers of the 80's, where movement skill was equal to aim.

<maybe>

Touche. Half full I guess.... Yet... The old levels are so... flat.

Yeah, but the old levels are just that: old. I can agree the sp maps lose there luster, however there are many map makers who are doing some reallly good stuff. Just head over to here, and you will see what im babbling about.

Serious Sam 3 is still fairly faithful.... isnt it?

Yah no matter how many times I play UrbanTerror,or Borderlands 2,or any other game period,I always crutch on Quake1 because theres nothing like it.

Yes, old one is best one.

[Syluxguy28O3]

No, it is fully empty now. As you can see there is no new quake.

Mostly because you like attention.

But your self-control track record blows.

Really? Then why bother to say it. Is this to prove it to yourself? Or to prove it to who exactly? Or to try to have semblance of free will?

You will, in fact, play there. We already know this.

This is your act of defiance before you relent. But we know you're gonna play there.

I know it. You know it. Your friends know it. But I won't rub it in too hard. But yeah, I'm gonna to rub it in when you do. Mostly because you like attention.

i see what u me mindz. omi whines about everything. he rq because he team killed me. blamed me for not using binds...

Omicron is good at quake he just fails to enjoy himself.Literally, fails to enjoy himself. Unless what he does IS his enjoyment,then I stand corrected.
