Quake Live
[MiA]Zaid:
Love this mod :)
N3Cr0:
Red Eclipse (former name: Blood Frontier) is based on Cube2:Sauerbraten, it's as you would call it the slowmotion version :P, but it has some nice features like wallrunning and double jumps.
Xonotic is the successor of nexuiz, since that game went from open source to commercial status (Xonotic is a fork of Nexuiz, made by a part of the same developers).
And yes, it is based on the quake 3 engine. Honestly, it is Quake 3 with other weapons, maps and graphics - it's kinda the "modern" Quake (containing some nice features like the offhand hook, which you only had in popular quake 3 server mods like black metal assault or excessive plus)
FFS! I feel like a living dicionary :o
[MiA]Raj:
Oh yeah, the Cube engine.
I really like Cube2's sniper mode, but I can't crouch. And the movement is also pretty fast so I'll slip easily off places. (In UT you can just crouch to prevent slipping).
Also most of the maps are against the "camping" style. The only camping map is Venice, and even that's not perfect.
It's a shame really, I love the camping/stealth sniping modes of UT2004 with its huge livingroom type of maps. Can't believe there's no other game out there that are more sophisticated and where the purpose isn't mindlessly running around dieing more than you frag.
N3Cr0:
LOL a camper, I thought even UT was against camping
Anyway, there are some camping maps in Sauerbraten, e.g. Suburbs, but the main aspect in that game is runnning around, maybe fragging all oponents sniper style with the rifle (much fun on short distances) and (if you play Venice for example) trickjumping. You can climb up anything using a rifle or rocket launcher^^
And Raj, this is not glitching, it's called trickjumping / freerunning.
[MiA]Raj:
I know the Sauer trickjumps, why would it be glitching. But there's no legit trickjumping in KF if that's what you're trying to prove here.
Oh and UT isn't against anything. Most people like UT for it's custom content (eg KF) not for the stock content.
Setting up a "camping" server is just a matter of customization.
Here's a freezetag/camping video from the times when UT was alive:
That's what UT2004's Freezetag gametype is all about. Don't confuse it with Freon (has normal UT weapons/game rules).
