alternative to Quake 2 Starter? (1 comment)
Posted by azxx @ 04:40 CST, 11 February 2026 - iMsg
Quake 2 Starter ( http://q2s.tastyspleen.net/ ) was to Q2 what nQuake is to Q1/QW. But I tried it recently and it seems broken? Something in the package to do with the source port it seems? Is there a manual fix or alternative? These kinds of community installers are really good for getting new players up and running, and also good for a quick setup on a temporary computer.

Man. Why vedic? Or Brendan or whatever. Why Brendan?

Why did you work on this site for months, almost revived it, then deleted it all in a, what I can only describe as, the most retarded hissy fit I have EVER witnessed on the internet?

Whyyyyyyyyyyy

I wrote the guy an angry farewell letter (actually it was just a reply), but then deleted it the next day or so because of .... you know this feeling when you really CARE, but get the impression noone else really cares and will shit on you for caring? Yes, that.

So yes, I was addicted to Q3a and ESR as it was cool. And a too long time after admittedly. I was almost the last person who contributed to leave (some crazy people stayed with dead Q3a, I will not count them, or speak loudly about them...). This was my all. I lost girlfriends over Quake and ESR (yes really). I admired Sujoy the whole way, up until when he abandoned us. I loved all about this site: the freedom, the toxic flaming, all of it.

But now it's gone and I miss it so much I am angry about Brandan, for giving me hope and swiping it away under my feed just as I was getting comfortable again (well, lurking mostly, but still).

Brendan, would you axplain yourself? Or am I retarded and missed the explanation?

And while we're at it, why not recover the working parts of your edits, Brandan? You probably are a competent coder, it basically couldn't be worse as to what it is now. ?

Jibo has come close in many tournaments.

Rapha is awesome, I'm sure he will come closer in the future also.

Rapha. He's got the right attitude, but it may be some time before he gets what he deserves.

By Earth Lethe 
fox - very good, but doesn't mentally have what it takes for 1st place, no risk taking, always playing it safe.
Jibo - too much defense and calculation, works on ztn, mostly loses elsewhere
k1llsen - incosistent + retired now?
vo0 - lack of brains/strat, aim only (works in cpm)
nike - used to local asus i guess, in big tourneys nerves make him look....bad.
noctis - solid, but not good enough
rapha - possible

Depends what game is used, if it's a bottle throwing/breaking thing, Forever might be the favourite.
