I think if they give it the same treatment they seem to have given Rage it will be awesome. And they better not skimp on the soundtrack either.

Interesting....the thing that made Quake so good the 3d world and multiplayer...the single player was weak.

It's not "in the works", it's something they are considering. No actual plans have been made yet.

I thought the single player in Quake I was pretty decent.

I remember playing LAN deathmatch games of Quake in the computer lab. Fond memories. Single player and coop were ace as well.

in case you havent noticed, on nightmare the enemies choose attacking over moving. the game is a about 10 times easier on nightmare because of this.

Carmack said there wasnt anything even remotely done regarding this, but the team think it would be a nice idea to go back to its Quake 1 roots. It doesnt mean it WILL happen, and if it did it would be years away :( With Rage, and Doom 4, id are a small team spreading quite thin.

I love Q2 the best in the series, but after the let down that is Q4 (something they could easily fix if done in house) I do think they should go back to a knightmare themed gothic Quake 1. But I'm torn if it should be arcade style like the original, or more modern... It needs Reznor doing the sound track, either way...

The more I think about this the more I actually want it to happen. But I would be gutted if it turned out to be Doom 3 all over again :(

If they did this they would need to it right and I think they would need to do an open test so fans can have their input.

Nothing massive - 3 levels from different parts of the game so we can make sure it has the same feel as the original game. Also multiplayer will be important so a few test levels to ensure the balance etc is there :)

Is originality really that scary?

Quake I was awesome for it's time, but in it's time a nonsensical storyless collection of monsters and levels was acceptable.
