New update for Quake 1 on Steam and consoles ...
not just fixes, but a new mode with new maps
Horde Mode, with 4 maps, I think its a good mod with some shortwhile fun :-)
oh, thanks for the reminder have to check that out, though so far even I only played through again Original Episodes, MP1 and MP2 ... still have to checkout the machine game episodes ... on top of Honey ... :-) ... not sure if Machine game stuff equals the really good community content ... :-)
and yes, they definitely have to add Arcane Dimensions ... and Alkaline!!
Arcane Dimensions and Alkaline are very unlikely to be added to the remaster because both mods use assets/models from other games, and would create some pretty nasty intellectual property issues if they were sanctioned for inclusion in an official game update. It's one thing to ask for permission or approval to use assets from other mods/games in an unofficial project (which the creators of AD/Alkaline did do), but once it's "official" the company endorsing it is open to a bunch of needless legal hassle. The only way they're getting added is replacing any such assets with new ones, but considering there are many high-quality maps that use nothing more than vanilla content, it's not a hoop worth jumping through.
They very unlikely won't be added to the remaster, but you can drop them in the game's folder and just load the mods up by typing /game ad or /game alkaline.
They have a bunch of "Episodes" they need to put out there like Beyond Belief, Zerstroyer, and maybe even Contract Revoked, and Soul of Evil. just some of the ones i remember quite fondly. but they also have new content being released into the new year hopefully that'll make it in to the enhanced port.
The gift that keeps delivering.
I bought Quake 1 on Steam during a sale for 1.5 Euros, last year it gave me a massive expansion during Quakecon and now this Horde mode for free.
