Remake Q4 Weapons for Q3?

Post by v1l3 »

I was thinking of whether someone would ever make the attempt of exporting any of the Q4 weapons over for Q3. Seems like a lifetime since anyone was making Q3 Custom weapon...or Polycount promoting it for that matter. I've always liked the remake of the SuperShotgun from Q2 which was done very well. I figured I'd throw the idea out, and see if anyone takes some interest in the idea. I'm a lover of the Railgun, RocketLauncher, and Machinegun models in Q4..well Shotgun too. :D I know there's some talented artist out there that's bored off of their ass.

Think about it..

The Quake 4 weapons were... Well they were shite... Why would you want to do that?

On the other hand people are enjoying porting the Quake 3 stuff to everything UE3 style. Sarge, Visor, Patriot, the weapons... And they WORK with the new high detailed stuff.

I think many people would much rather see that than porting the (Quite frankly) dull weapons from Q4 into Q3 (Not forgetting of course getting anims in Q3 is a mod in itself, so they would never look right).
