I fail to see any multi colour strogg anywhere.

I fail to see marines without helmets on (which lets face it, they NEED).

And I fail to see anything REALLY boring and dull in those pics.

Relax, i think were ok

I've always said that the design in Quake 4 sucks ass. Keep up.

The SP game was alrite, the MP is ok, nothing amazing. But the design, and the fact its, well, nothing like Quake 2, i've always said. Thanks.

please, you litterally said that [you were wrong about q4] and that is was indeed a great game.
be consistant :P
although you have been consistant in the red armor gripe

It is a great game, i just said that. The SP game was very good (Apart from the pointless ending and the strogg part that goes nowhere). However the MP is complete tripe.

that it is

Quake 4 multiplayer is fun. The singleplayer is fucking retarded. THAT'S what I meant by "I hope this doesn't end up like Quake 4". It was just one shitty pre-scripted sequence after another. Not only that but you'd always have some faggy teammates with you, and they wouldn't die either. Fuck them, I just want to fight monsters like Rambo and shit :icon27:

Hey, I have the completely opposite opinion of Q4 from you.

Post by **DooMer** » Sat Jan 14, 2006 6:02 pm

this game doesn't even have an sp.

As in, no Q3 SP, no bots and such, or no Q4 type SP?

I played some q4 online for the first time (got banned from a server for the first time in q4) last night and I had a blast. I like the crouch sliding feature and I was surprised by just how fast you can strafe if you do it correctly which is tougher to do than in q3. Most of you noobs can't figure out how to move in q4 so that's why you constantly bash the game. imo raven did a pretty good job producing q4 and if configured properly you can achieve a steady 63 fps on a GeForce FX 5200. Now all you noobtastic funboys can shut the fuck up and go play ultrono arena while I destroy the q4 scene like a one man wrecking crew.

Sincerely,

Phil

Your full of shit duhard. :icon25:

Movement is gold I will agree, did you see the ztrider/cooller demo on galang? Find it on esr ztriders movement is awesome.

But I want to see your baseq4 config that gets a steady 63 with that vid card as well as cpu + ram. For all I know you have two amd 64 fx or whatever the hell they are and 4 gigs of ram... :]

And where are you playing? Chicago servers? DM? CA? TDM? Probably run into eachother if you play alot...

I don't have a top of the line rig but I know how to tweak a config..

Athlon 64 3000+
1 Gig DDR400
GeForce 6800 GT/GeForce FX 5200

I ran tests on both vid cards and I can achieve a steady ~60 fps on some 1v1 maps using the GeForce FX 5200 :icon14:

That's what I thought.

I guess it's time to get dual 7800GTXs.

Seeing how Quake Wars can easily do 32 player battles (and there's no maximum to that), why in gods name could Doom 3 itself only do 4 players?

Post by **jester!** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 8:32 am

They must have pulled out the shitty doom3 netcode and put in q3 netcode. :icon26:

Post by **o'dium** » Mon Jan 16, 2006 8:43 am

Yeah, its because id got lazy and suited the netcode to the game style. Heaven forbid they tried to make a different type of game to Quake 3

Gotta love it though. I mean they make Doom 3, people cry that its nothing like Quake 3. They make Doom 3: ROE 5x a better MP game and nobody played it. Then they make Quake 4, which is as close to Quake 3 as your going to get without playing Quake 3, and bam, everybody hates it, "Ditch the Q3 stuff and make something new!!!" you all said.

lol, thats why devs have such a hard time. They dont listen and people hate it. They listen, and people hate it. Cant win.

At least with ET:QW they are making a kick ass game based on an old kick ass game thats still played but tweaked to the max. I always liked Splash Damage.
