Some things that surprised me are the orange vs green layout in CTF instead of red vs blue, the sound of the footsteps (which for some reason sound very loud and apparant, but maybe it's not nearly that bad when you are actually playing) and that the detail level of the map looks pretty much on the level of detail current day Q3 mappers put in their maps.
Not too surprised about that though. I think it's good for performance and it's not really a nescessity (and probably even annoying) when playing competitive multiplayer.
I like the style of the Q2dm1 remake, but the CTF4 one looked a bit too clean. Reminded me a bit of a Star Trek Elite Force multiplayer map (which had multiplayer that was surprisingly Quake 3 like and pretty good to be honest)

tssk, grab one armor shard and he needs two shots to take you down. Railgun has long reload time. If the first shots hits, you're up to his nose before the reload time + weapon switch time is over (assuming he's smart enough to switch to LG or SG or something similar, which many people are not) and you're blasting him full of lead with the SG, which does 110 or so damage full up front (in Q3)

Sandstorm does look familiar somehow.
I like the 'back to brown' - proper quake colouring
I always hated too much eye candy.
May dust off the Radiant manual and get back in mapping again.
That Zombie guy is one lucky sob

zombie, how is the jumping... does it feel and work like Q3?
Can you obtain more speed etc?
I love how they have moved away from the regular BluevsRed flag thingy... OrangevsGreen is so much prettier! :icon25:

To be honest, the MP maps look just like Q3 maps.

Disagree... thye look much more Doom3 to me.. q3 maps to me always have alot of flashing rails, purple colors,lava and castles...
These levels look brown,dark and metalic... (remove the brown and you have Doom3)

I dont think there is enough shadow in the maps TBH, i mean yeah, we didn't want it to look liek Doom 3, but they just seem very... Detail-less...
Anyways, whats with the arms? Has this guy fell from his mech or what?

No no, look at the bottom, to the left, his arm bends funny then just stops mid air... oddness...
Anyways, just watched the edge video, fuck me that looks good, great re-design. Dont mess with a classic unless your gonna do it right i tell ya
Shame to see a lack of mega health jump
No more mega ownage then

Yeah it does that when you change the fov above 90 I believe.

Ahh i see, so its the fov? I dont mind if its because of something "I" do, weapons go crazy in all games with different FOV.
Thanks dudle.

Yea, once I crank the FOV up I doubt I will be drawing the arm/weapon anyway. I'm sure I will for a little bit, just to check out the animations - like the LG - but it won't last.
