Would you buy Quake 5 if it was multiplayer only?

Wouldn't buy Quake at all.

Q3a was MP only, and it to this day has a higher skillcap and competitive factor than ANYTHING released on consoles.

An amazing factoid if you will.

Quake tournaments are insane, you have to be on crack just to keep up.

I could never play those games.

I was always more of an Unreal Tournament fan, but if a new UT4 on the new unreal engine I would definitely get it. Although I would prefer an offline bot mode just for fun

Another troll thread by the worst TC on this forum.

and it's not just their reaction times, they also have to know where all the items are and their timings

Yes I would, but only if it was a proper arena shooter and not some bullshit with vehicles and classes.

didn't ut2004 have vehicles?

Duh

Might not buy it though if explosive shitlord weapons have nuke sized radius explosions.

Weapon balance of qlive is nice with lg and rail, just remove rockets please.

Quake or Unreal.

Sure. If the MP is fantastic you'll get your money's worth on just how much you can play those type of games. I sunk so many hours into 2k4.

Probably not, since we need a singleplayer game that stays true to Quake 1's twitch shooting and weapon balancing.

You do realise that the single player was an afterthought on Quake 1,it was pretty much the last thing to have been made and was somewhat shoehorned into the game,the focus of it and the main reason why it was made was because of the MP.

Im not old but voted Yes.

@MrYaotubo: The fact that Quake singleplayer is an afterthought makes the current state of Singleplayer FPS even more of a joke. We need more singleplayer games that follow Quake's format. As i have said time and again, we need a modern Doom clone.

Am I the only one who remembers Enemy Territory: Quake Wars?

A game like Quake doesn't really need a campaign in my opinion. I would buy it either way. I feel the argument can go both ways.... A great single player game does not need a crappy MP and a great MP game does not need a crappy SP experience... all it does it take away from the production value and possibilities of the mode that is actually worth a damn to begin with.

I was addicted to that on pc

Hell yeah. Q3 was my first online game I ever played. Crazy to think I was pretty good on a damn 56k connection back then.

Deathmatch on Q3DM6 and Instagib on Q3DM17 was the fuckings tits.

If it was like Quake III Arena with an updated graphics engine I would not hesitate one bit.

wouldn't buy quake period.

If it supported offline LAN-play? Sure.

I'll answer your question when you ask it like a normal person instead of yet again making a TC that acts as if you're a wise old sage and we're all 6 year olds.

This

Plus i have no interest in mp

Probably the only game that would buy if multiplayer only .... imgp Quake3 was the greatest online shooter ever.

Personally I think it is time that we get the return of the arena FPS like Quake and Unreal Tournament. I think the real world FPS's like CoD and BF have run their course. Thankfully for Respawn, Titanfall more fits that bill than it does a CoD clone!!!

No, I would not buy it. I don't play online competitive multiplayer.

I agree my friend. It's a beautiful streamlined masterpiece and undoubtedly the greatest deathmatch title ever made.

Nope. I wouldn't buy quake either way.

Q3 Arena was great, but I enjoyed Wolfenstein ET way more. So, I wouldn't buy a Quake title anymore.

no

I'd buy Quake 5 if the developers behind the game were the same as Quake 3, and if it was a PC only title.

So I guess I wouldn't buy it.

Pretty much this

Quake sucked

yes. I've been waiting on a good arena shooter much like quake, ut, or tfc which is partly why 2GD's "reborn" has been one of my most anticipated FPSs since last gen. I just hope it hasn't been scrapped :O

otherwise, I'll be sticking to quake, TFC, and hidden: source as I have been lol

Indeed. I suspect this probably is partly the reason it doesn't. Without radically changing the formula to killstreaks, unlocks, iron-sights. auto-aim and so fourth the streamlined inherent need for skill would not appeal to the large halo/call of duty demographic currently destroying the fps genre with nonsense.

On the other hand, Quake is still a well known brand name. Raping intellectual properties for a "modern" audience by dickheads in suits whenever humanly, remotely possible, is done regardless. Somewhat surprising. No doubt this title will exist in the future as a lobotomized bastard version.

wouldn't buy Quake

I would like a Quake game that was a sequel to Quake 1 because Quake II got Quake 4. So why can't the first one have a sequel for it as well?

Yes i would , if it costed around 20-30$. At 60$ price tag though , no way
