Quake 4

<div class="IPBDescription">Finally being revealed soon...</div> PC Gamer US seems to be have the exclusive on Quake 4 this month, with the mag coming out September 21st.

<a href='http://www.shacknews.com/screens.x/quake4/Quake+4/1/pcg_nov04/pcgamer_nov04cover.jpg' target='_blank'>Front cover over at Shacknews.</a>

I'm expecting big things of this game; for me Raven's games have always been immensely enjoyable but lacking a certain something to take them in the 90%+ review echelons. They definitely have the talent to do so, and what better game to rock the world with than Quake 4?

Comments from KFS (and Ken Banks if we're especially lucky) would be nice. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Pretty schweet, but that model is lookin' a bit like Doom 3's plastic. Hopefully it's just a bad shot.

    I hope it looks WIRSE than Doom3, honestly. Quake has gotta be fact paced and able to handle many many models...

    IMO Quake 2 is one of the best games ever made, so I have quite a lot of expectations for Quake 4.
    I also think Quake 2 has some of the most awsome leveldesign/architecture ever, too, so KFS and Ken better be doing a good job. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    ID has just come out with a single player game.

    Out comes Quake 4, the sequel to Quake 3 known for its heavy multiplayer gameplay... what type of game do you think it will be?

    I'm expecting it will be something like quake3 with better graphics. Oooo.. lets all marvel and gaze at its wonder. There is nothing wrong with quake3, but I never liked it so much.

    iD isn't making this. Raven is. Hence.

    And its going to be SP based off of Q2's story. Not Q3's MP stuff, though it may have a heavy multiplayer element for all we know.

    ...all I know is, it uses the DOOM 3 engine. And KFS works on it.

    I'm hoping it's nothing like Quake 3. Quake 3 destroyed the Quake franchise by forcing everyone online. Quake 1 i played for the mods, curiously Quake 2 i played for mods and single player, Quake 3 i didn't touch with a 10 foot pole.

    A few things i understand, but am most likely wrong about, Quake 4 will be using the Doom 3 engine, hence any similarities in graphics and it's to focus on single player gaming.

    But then again, what do i know? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    yeah, I liked UT better than Q3. It was alot better IMO.

    You're all wrong. Quake 1 DM is the best dm ever made ever. Ever.





    Ever.

    I prefer HLDM because it doesn't take itself seriously. Insane stuff. Plus tripmines. Tripmines and the Crossbow.

    You are correct in believing that, but UT > the entire Quake series put together.

    So long as it's the original UT. While I do enjoy a round of Onslaught, fragging just isn't as much fun in UT2k4 as it is in UT or Quake.

    I played the Tribes 2 demo for about 20 minutes. Didn't like it very much.

    UT has always been to slow in my mind.
    And UT might have a chance at being the king of deathmatch if 80% of the servers weren't instagib -_-
    Quake and Quake 3 are the champions of deathmatch. Pure and simple.
    Quake 2 never really did it for me MP wise but SP was blast
