"A 1v1 FPS Game, I actually designed one. I think Quakers r a little bored with Quake overall and we need fresh blood (new players), but we wont get it due to the game play being quite old.
I designed a new FPS duel game called "Reborn" its meant to play like quake with a more advanced movement and weapon system, with integrated tournament system, ladders, tour UI and a whole bunch of competitive features I helped implement into Bloodline Champions. I have a meeting with an investor to raise 2.5 mill, I could get the whole game done in 2 years tops, which would still beat quake 5 by 3 years i'm guessing.
One can dream"


highlight so far :)

I hope 'more advanced movement' doesn't mean faster gameplay at the same time - faster isn't always better.

but in the cpm case, it is !

I somehow really don't see that work

I have more faith in 2GD and some random game that probably won't come to pass than in Quake Live. Of course, band this community together the right way from the start and the possibilities are endless. I would help such a project.

Severity anyone

Funny guy :)

No one is going to give anyone a few mill to develop an evolution of an already commerically dead game. Especially someone whose never developed a game before. At least not any time soon.

Sponsors do not care about skill or talent unless their product is directly aimed at that market and they already know you bitches will travel the world for peanuts and play a 10 year old game, so why risk millions?

To obtain broadcasting rights for a game no one else gives a shit about?

All they care about is exposure, these are the games with 3-4-5 million sales because they simply get much bigger viewing figures.

IF<<<< someone out there exists with a stack of cash and a love for quake and does not mind taking that risk, or even losing money then sure, but I'm pretty sure that person would have made himself known by now.

well you have stacks and stacks and stacks of cash, and love quake (or at least quake forums), so what's your problem, mr moneybags?

that and the fact that you've already singlehandedly obtained 10 bafta's for work in making games? I expect the beta by the weekend!

Some of you guys still bitter?

Sorry, if I knew it had that effect I would never have mentioned it :>

He should contact lakerman and thresh.

That's the thing thresh is probably a millionaire, and you can't say he didn't like quake, so if someone like him doesn't support it, then its hard to see how anyone would.

I doubt Lakerman turned into much more than a degenrate poker player. No matter how good you are at poker/gambling, you only win when you retire for good, and there's nothing cool about a life based on the misfortunes of another people.

yep im with you regarding poker(lakerman is a millionaire aswell though afaik).

Well 2gd is someone with a reputation in the gaming scene unlike you so why is it so unlikely?

Well I have a bafta from working on an FPS game that sold over 2 million copies.

Bye :)

You're getting stale lately Jamerio, bafta this, bafta that.
Where are the paragraphs pointing out flaws in the other poster's logic and digging up old posts proving their hypocrisy? I miss it

:(

I did point of the flaw.

jay playing quake 6 years ago online and talking online is not going to make anything happen.

There is no market for it.

PK=FAIL (biggest waste of money ever)
PROMODE=FAIL
WARSOW=FAIL
QUAKE 3 =FAIL (the only game that looked promising)
QUAKELIVE=FAIL
SEVERITY=FAIL
DOOM 3=FAIL
UT=FAIL

The mass market won. It always does.

Depends on your idea of fail i guess, im sure many players had fun and made a few quid playing those games, but on the whole, it didn't amount to anything long term and cool.

You forgot the UT series..

he also forgot his mom =)

I never got to say it to 2gd directly but I hope he knows I am very grateful of everything he has done so far for quake and all he plans to do for it still.

dno. think it won't go thru.

he said on stermy's stream the other day he's meeting with investors on the 19th (I think)

Well, it's great that he's trying to help the Quake community as much as he does, but does this decision to just make a new game mean he's basically given up on Quake? If so that's sort of depressing. and even if he DOES get the money to make the game, I'm not so sure it will be that great anyway. Despite some people being affectionate towards Quake clones and spinoffs such as Warsow, I personally am not.

id software has completely missed all opportunities with QL, so really the only way for Quake to rise again is to reincarnate as a new game.
And you shouldn't mix up some random spinoffs made by/for clueless fan nerds with project that has very concrete aim and directed by someone who's got really good understanding of why people play games.

or he could buy id software instead of making a new game.

These days zenimax might give it away for free.

i wouldnt take it serious... its 2gd after all... this guy is known for speaking 200 words per second, and somehow they almost always make some sense...

you dont know much about what he does obviously. why do you keep insisting on sharing your ignorance with this site?

Funny guy :)

No one is going to give anyone a few mill to develop an evolution of an already commerically dead game. Especially someone whose never developed a game before. At least not any time soon.

i sadly agree with Jamerio... its typical blabering to gain e-fame... ofc if he can pull it off, ill be the first to suck his dick... but hes giving false hopes to all the negros here...

It's not "evolution of an already commercially dead game". It's a revival of once most popular multiplayer FPS on the planet which was driven to a state of commercially dead game by fools inside id.

its not ID fault... they fucked up, but worlds game taste changed... noone wants a game in which u cant make a frag for month...

Wrong. It's id's fault. Time to wake up, fan boy.

if u guys need to blame some1 - do it... it wont change reality... quake is on downhill, becuse ppl prefer to play CoD/BF3, which are camper pub games...

Quake declines only because of id software. A proper Quake game in the present could captivate a huge audience. The way you communicate your thoughts leads me to believe you should be playing those "camper pub games."

so u find q3 ripoff as not proper quake game? shocking news...

quake never had huge audience, and wont ever have it because of thing i mentioned earlier... its not fun to be raped for months, and games are made for fun

It's a revival of once most popular multiplayer FPS on the planet

So... not Quake?

Sup with the duel tournament thingie he was going to organize..?
