The rooms both small and big, corridors, halls are full of machinery, screens, bridges and huge assembly line. Luckily the visuals of the space base and the entire game’s graphics are first class: Raven did what they could to bring out the best out of id’s original engine. It would have been great to have the ability to mark where we are as the corridors all look the same, and when the objective is „go back to the base k thx” you can end up lost. Although I did not like that, the levels were, even more, linear and lacked the usual creativity.īesides a few puzzle sections progressing through levels does not require too much of our brain cells: Most locked levels will be opened not by keys or cards, but rather a scripted event (enemy busts through the door). Positioning is also the key to surviving certain encounters. Quake IV is more complicated than ID’s old games, and we have to use cover better. More enemies attack us at once, from every direction, and there is barely a breather between the action. The action is much more intense, and brutal than Doom 3. Which means that our comrades on the battlefield can die, and no medic will be able to revive them. However he will not die only two levels later as that is how the character has been programmed. So there can be times when the commander who is yelling the tactics to us, is getting shot. Luckily the soldiers of Quake 4 are less scripted than the previously mentioned games. This solution reminded me of the different parts from Medal of Honor and Call of Duty games.
Our usual objectives against them are the trope-filled missions such as: Find the lost soldiers, blow up strategic complexes, or just get behind enemy linesĭuring our missions at times, three comrades will also help us: A simple soldier, a medic who restores our health, and a technician who restores our armor. We get to control our hero in the middle of the counter attack against the Strogg. Our protagonist is a soldier, Corporal Kane (Mortal Kombat rulez!….), who while is a well-written character, will still stay mute for the entire game, just like most of the FPSheroes.

The development was handled not by Carmack, but by the good guys and gals of Raven Software makers of Jedi Knight 2 and Soldiers of Fortune. Well Quake IV is an interesting sequel as the singleplayer experience is at the forefront of the game.
#Quake 4 single player series
The height of the series was released in 1999, Quake 3: Arena – after this ID sat on their money pile until they decided to make Doom 3. Quakebecame a meaning, and that was not reduced by the fact that the second game was not that great – when compared to the first. The use of 3D technology was also thanks to ID Software’s newest game, which resulted in many clones of the FPSgenre. The first game released in 1996 did not only have an unbelievably good engine, and scary atmosphere, but it was the game that everybody played against each other. I do not think there is a gamer under the son that would not associate the word Quaketo the King of FPSgames.
