Quake 4 MP - QuakeCon 2005
by Method
INTRO
I've seen enough footage to say that Quake 4 indeed does have a Quake 3 feeling and movement to it. Most of the people who played MP didn't try to do any jumps, so it's unknown at this time if Q4 will feature trickjumps such as doublejump, strafejump, etc. It looks nice and moves smooth, though I'm sure QuakeCon has high-end PCs that run Q4.
HUD
HUD (Heads Up Display) is self explanatory, but I decided to place a brief description of each item anyways.
Q4DM1 - The Fragging Yard
WEAPONS
Majority of people who played Q4 MP enjoyed the weapons and the only criticism was that RL (Rocket launcher) might be too powerful.
1. Gauntlet
2. Machinegun
3. HyperBlaster
4. Grenade Launcher
5. Nailgun
6. Rocket Launcher
7. Railgun
MULTIPLAYER MENU
MP Menu had these options:
- MAIN MENU
- JOIN GAME
- PLAYERS
- VOTE
- SETTINGS
+ Name
+ Clan Tag
+ Model
+ Data Rate
+ PunkBuster
- SERVER INFO
- ADMIN
Currently Q4 has a good selection of models, which players can use. Such as members of Rhino squad, Stroggified Kane, Stroggs and various Corpses.
OUTRO
The game looks very promising. It has Doom 3 graphics and Quake 3 MP. Keep up the good work id and Raven!
