Post subject:  Place your bets.. The "Maps" of Quake 4 MP

Ok, what maps do you reckon will pop up in the retail version of Quake 4 MP, that have been remade from past versions?

Now we know that Q3tourney6, Q3tourney6CTF, Q2DM1 and q3dm17 will be among the "remakes" (the first two have been seen in pics/videos, q2dm1 and q3dm17 from a pic of the MP menu)

Decide yourself what maps these are, if any relate to past maps, or if you just want to guess what will crop up.

Not bad is it, nice and streamlined. At least its not black with big red buttons *cough* Quake 3 *cough*

I remember the first time i loaded up Doom 3's menu... It gave me like 15FPS... I didn't have much hope for the game, lol. Damn that planet.

Quake 4's UI looks very practical.

Which I really rate.

You mean Coriolis' Storm? That was an awesome map, I've played it a lot with FreezeTag.

Yeah, it was released just after Q3 came out, and it was drop dead sexy compared to anything else. It had fantastic flow too, i loved it.

There would be no problem with it in my eyes
as the menu's are on video's from Quakecon
you are quite legally able to download...

and the game has gone gold now :p

Not the maps. The NDA applies until the game is actually on store shelves.

oops, misread :D

another edge sounds great, unless its as gay as doom3's "remake"

the edge... that'S really nice :icon14:

i'd love to see one or two of the better custom maps to be inluded. bloodrun?

The edge on Doom 3 wasn't that bad, it just wasn't The Edge as we knew it and so we were pissed for it.

Lets hope the edge for Quake 4 WILL be the edge we know, but new.

q3dm6, best map ever made. tourney6, and the ctf version are gay as hell. It would be pretty wank to include those, and not dm6.

Well, game devs are known for being out of touch (Who wants coop anyways?)

Guessing, or...?

Because TBH, The Edge can be reamde easy, its just in Doom 3 the weapon set and physics fucking sucked.

q3ctf2 would be nice as a remake. i really like q3ctf2.

some of the mpteam maps are fucking fantastic. i'd love to see some of the TA classics make it into q4. if they don't then i'll start polishing my mapping skills once again.

Q1dm4, The Bad Place (by American McGee) would be nice for some old-times-sake 1v1 goodness

Q3DM6 of course

Q2CTF McKinley Revival

One of the most over-played maps as well. Although i can hardly imagine that they wouldn't port the all-time favourite Q3 map to Q4, i hope they will include some good other maps that will put dm6 more to the background. I'm sick of it. :icon27:

if dm6 isn't ported right out of the box you can still count on a 3rd party to have it mapped and out within the few following weeks.

I can't think of any conversions (of official maps) which came out for Q3 that made it into popular circulation.

ZTN3DM1 made it so big because it came out FAST, and was suited to the physics.

Author:  DooMer [ 10-04-2005 02:46 PM ]
Post subject: 

Yeah, I think it's because of the big difference in physics between q3, and past quakes, and the creators didn't take the time to make them play well. aerowalk and ztn are awesome because they feel like they were built for q3.

ztn3tourney1, ztn3dm2, hub3dm1 = perfect maps

There are quite a few faithful Q2DM1 conversions for Q3, but in practice none of them work very well. The Edge was made with Q2 physics and weapons in mind and that's when it shines. Since Q4 MP will be more like Q3 than Q2, I wouldn't expect too much of it.

I wouldn't mind seeing back Q2CTF1 (McKinley's Revival) and Q2CTF4 (Outlands). Does anyone know if iD/Raven have plans to include a grapple?
