Quake3World

Depends on the public test.

Doom 3 was quite cool actually.

Well from my own opinion I wouldn't say Doom 3 and Quake 4 sucked ass. Both games had copious amounts of hype to begin with, which isn't always a good thing. Infact, i quite liked the games, but a lot of people probably thought there was room for improvement (well you can say that about a lot of games)

With regards to your fourth point, you could easially say that for a lot of games companies.

I'm quite looking forward to this game, I beleive it has a lot of potential and It could move me from Battlefield 2. Of course, no one can say until as foo said, the public test comes out and then the final release.

I still play Doom 3 and piss my pants from joy

Doom 3 was ok.
Quake 4 rocked.

Riddla's a fucking whackjob.

why buy:

1) it's not Carmacks work, it's splashdamage.
2) splashdamage rocks because they are infact modders/real people and not hardcore gamedevs thinking everyone want bloom on their penis
3) shut up

Well, given the fact that quite a number of the staff at Splash Damage are Q3W mappers/modders who got hired into professional industry says quite a lot about how they will build for the community. They were/are die-hard fans.

RR2DO2, Digibob, NakedApe, LloydM to name a few.

Well I want bloom on MY penis.... :'(

p.s. zombie sucks

Im trying to stay optimistic about this game, but id seems to shit on everything they touch nowadays. They seem more interested in selling titles w/eye candy and special effects than they are with making games that are fun to play. They are totally out of touch. I dont think SD are out of touch however, and hopefully they can make this game FUN first, and pretty second. We will see.

guess thats why there are dozens of mods out and in active development now for Q4 eh? (in reality there are about 4 or 5)

Because the amount of time it takes to create assets for a game like Quake IV has doubled or even tripled. Most people don't have the time or skills to do that.

That's not it at all.

Because every game that gets hyped as THE new multiplayer game invariably ends in the shitter.

Are you Garth ‘Zombie’ Hendy of SD?

Edit: Fixed UBB muckery

Kaz didn't say that

Ill answer for him, yes.

The id "executive producing" train needs to get back to competitive gaming... not gaming that looks pretty and has a competitive marketing label slapped on it.

...for a game thats not very good to begin with and no one plays..

Modders have improved along with game devs, they are perfectly capable of modding for any available games, particularly a game like q4 that releases SDK's and does a ton of community support. People don't mod for q4 because its a mediocre game that no one plays, not because its 'too much work'.

doom3 and quake4 were ok, but they weren't really 'fun'. I think quakewars will break this

Wow Foo.... there was a delayed lol on that pic of yours. wtf at first, then lol the way only really wierd/extreme/perverted things can make me lol.

Your all forgetting one thing... This game IS made by the community. Its made by the same people that did RtCW MP and they KNOW what we want, because they are in a sense "us".

And as for Q4 sucking ass we only have ourselves to blame, we wanted it that way so we cant moan at them can we.
