<div class="IPBDescription">PC Zone</div> They're out there, if you look hard enough. And man does it look sweet. Tis one problem: Doom 3 engine=Doom 3 look-alike. Yep, even the Q4 marine has D3 armor. ^_^
But it's all still very pretty, and yes, there are vehicles and there are squads.
Quote them: "Less of a horror movie, more action-packed." And that's a good thing. So find and post your thoughts!
(I'll post links only with mod's consent or thru pm.)

Some Quake IV info from Shacknews:

- Quake 4 is a direct sequel to Quake 2, takes place just hours after the event of that game.
- During most of the game, you are fighting with other marines, however there will be solo missions.
- Some missions take place inside, others outside. You'll get to use vehicles at times.
- You're part of a military campaign attacking the Strogg homeworld.
- Returning weapons so far: blaster, machine gun, nailgun, shotgun.
- Multiplayer: "The multiplayer experience is more akin to Quake III: Arena", no vehicles.
- "With Doom 3 it was horror. With Quake IV, it's war."

    Anyone got working pics?

    Yaaay! I'm so bloody <i>sick</i> of being the only one who's not crap enough to get massacred in the initial catastrophe to carry out the mission!

    I'm not very impressed, but then again they still have two years of developpement ahead of them...

    Looks like Doom 3 TBH....

    Hopefully they come out with something that helps get rid of the repetitiveness Doom 3 had....but then again, this is Quake where they send everything your way =/

    I know it is.

    I just pray you can run over things repeatedly, instead of having no vehicles....it would be like, jeep massage or something....

    JEEP MASSAGE!

    heh, reminds me of "Aliens". Which is a good thing. Good to see they are trying to make a true sequel with marines and vehicles, and not just porting everything over to a pretty engine. I wonder if any of KungFuSquirrel's and Ken20bank's Maps are in those screenshots? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    If they are going for realism they should either dump the nailgun or turn it into a flechette gun.

  • RustySpoonRustySpoon Join Date: 2003-07-10 Member: 18069Members
    They're going for realism? It says Quake 3 players should feel at home, so
    it's still just the same rocketjumping-twitch-seizure-shooter.

    Looks awesome.

    And on the last page, the map in the top pic, I'd be willing to bet cash that level is ken20bank's work.

    Maybe KFS can clarify (surely that won't be a breach of NDA)?

    Well, given that Doom3's graphics weren't quite <a href='http://archive.gamespy.com/fargo/february01/doom/' target='_blank'>this photorealistic</a>, I guess Fargo's preview was of upcoming Quake4 footage.

    Back on-topic: I get the feeling I'm going to be playing "spot the mapper!" as a minigame in Q4....KFS, Ken20Banks...do they even <i>need</i> any other mappers?
