YES, PLZ, DIY

They had something similar in the street fighter games with the vism/xism, or in super turbo you can select OLD versions of the characters and inherit their variants from the older games.

Quake would be too much for the other games to deal with (even unreal), it would not be fair and the only way to make it fair would be to put some horrible handicap on the health or something.

I think you could only really do that if all games selected has similar mechanics, in which case, it would be pointless.

Might make money with gamers liking the faction/gang aspect of it though.

That sounds interesting - did it "work out" in SF?

I don't think that quake would have that much of an advantage. UT movement might be slow, but a few of the weapons can chew through a 200/200 stack instantly. Also the 'excess' armor & health doesn't tick down.
AG on the other hand is definitely most mobile/fastest and weapons are no joke either :)
The only real advantage I'd see for quake is that it is middle of the road and most versatile.
In the end it would probably boil down to map design and details of implementation.

What is AG?

I guess thats how most Quakers would reason... until you take a 300dmg combo to the face.

The butthurt is Unreal.

I tried to imagine it. It doesn't work.

Might as well have a Mario class and wow characters added. It's just that rediculous.

What exactly does not work? Or why wouldn't it work?

It may work in theory.

What you did there.
I see it. :)

Basically you wanna try like the Mugen of fps'es?

CTF with such classes could be nice:

My def and my mid from UT and their weapons/powerups, the atts from QL and their speed/powerups/armor.
Weapons pickup base allow each player to get his game equivalent of each weapon/powerups. It would have to be tweaked though but, well arranged it could be nice even though it would never happen :p .

So, like cpm NTF, just with a lot more fucking classes? :D

Isn't 2gd doing something like this in reborn? Maybe less radical and copy-catish.
Anyway, it's certainly not feasible from the legal point of view to have the real quake/ut feel :)

hes pretty much having a UT class (but faster), a vq3 calss (with crouchslides) and a CPM class

each of the classes look like they will have some extras and changes but thats the gist

generations arena

I had a similar idea around 2000 about this but still a different approach. I "invented" the FPS-HUB.
It would be a server application what could inter-connect clients and servers of different games. So basically every game would have the same map (quake, unreal, etc), and you could connect to the hub with different clients, and the hub would translate the doings of the other clients for your game.

I remember I was thinking about how could I prove that Quakers are the best xD. ..... I know but I have stupid ideas every day since forever, and this one wasn't even worthy to mention until now, so please don't flame :)

It's common sense, you don't have to prove it.

This was an idea I had long ago, but have most likely forgotten some of the better points. At the time I wanted as many as possible game classes included (quake, ut, cs, hl2dm, fear etc) but to get anywhere you need a unified engine so forget the fear and ut.

Remember the source engine port of quake1 known as deathmatch classic, so quake on the source engine already exists, and the source engine is itself an extension of the quake engine.

With that in mind I think a Quake vs CS vs HL2dm would not take a huge amount of effort to produce.

Quake and hl2dm are similar in movement already with maybe some slight speed caps and weapon nerfs it could be balanced

To include CS just make it so that it takes a relatively large amount of hits to take down a slow moving CS model from a Quake or HL2 model, while a CS model only needs a relatively low amount of hits to take down the other classes with spray or rail type sniper damage.

Do it on source engine with those 3 classes, maybe team fortress and a few others also.

can do

q3
q4
ut
ut2003
cpma

and all this and that if you make custom maps, custom damage sets

as default, mp is like a pub cpma server, enable tournament mode and make a custom damage set

strafe/air move is done using strafe keys, as the mouse is not serverside

been wondering where you been, glad youre still around

word, i fixed all the gravity and mass in all the physics, so movables move like

http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/videos/push-physics#imagebox

while if you set a custom gravity in the map files worldspawn, you can have maps like

http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/videos/worldspawn-gravity#imagebox

which then affects, water, projects, strafe and dodge jumps

http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/videos/water-physics#imagebox

http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/videos/q3-stra...g#imagebox

http://www.moddb.com/mods/q43a/videos/dodge-jumping#imagebox

so then if you have a map with a custom gravity, you can customize the strafe and dodge jump amount in your server config

while the id_func_liquid or water can do lava with damage etc too

it would be really cool to have altered physics in only certain areas/rooms...

movable items is also very cool, i remember you could have that in e+ so you could shoot and bounce items around the map... this would be awsome for entity plus the single player mod

you can use a func_vacuum to have a custom gravity in set areas, or something

Q43A has singleplayer and multiplayer

you can shoot movables about in singleplayer, if the projectile has enough mass, velocity, exposion push

you can add movables to MP, but the cpu hog sometimes on client side, more so if a crate gets push into some liquid

you can add animated models to mp too, if you play reactor game type

and you can have vehicles in MP with multiple driver positions, but they will be out of sync after a map restart, so you can`t do warmup`s or sudden death if a map has vehicles

Are you firefrog, the programmer who's working on 2GD's Reborn (Diabotical)?

lol

Why not? He's a game programmer and from the UK.
