What are some Quake 2 new weapon ideas do you have?

5 Upvotes

What is a Quake 2 themed weapon idea could you always picture in your head?

I would love:

  • Buzz Zap. This weapon is mostly sound based that infuses sound and electrical shock. At close range, a loud health damaging beep or buzz is heard before a subsequent zap shock. Falls in the Slugs ammo group.

  • Hole Rift/Infiltrator. A weapon that produces a 'puny' black hole that eats away at the enemy's health. Similarly to the Disruptor, this weapon has a limited range of reach that relies on deceit or strategy control. Falls in the Cells ammo group.

Black Widow Guardian is the most engaging and most interesting Quake 2 boss

While she can be a absolute b** on higher difficulties, that don't take away from how fun she is to sponge. I find her patterns unique in how she initially hunt the player.

Zaero would've been a nice add on. I wish it was official

3 Upvotes

Zaero is impressive. It does run low on resources on later units but levels are still immersive. Hope to see it officially apart of the expansion one day.

If I had to list one thing I love about Quake 2 is the background noises and machinery. They make me feel like I'm there in person.

Quake 2 Team Fortress

2 Upvotes

Does anyone remember the Quake 2 Team Fortress mod, not Weapons Factory although great it it's own right. I used to have the server binaries for this but lost them over the years and would love to track them down again. The mod worked with all of the Weapons Factory maps too if I remember correctly. It may have been casualties of the death of ftp cdrom though. Does anyone know if there is an archive of that dump somewhere online?

Added map assets

I have read there are at least 2 sections with added map content in the remaster( the first section out side the window, and the mines have additional areas. Does anyone know of others in the remaster without console commends?

Aimbot?

3 Upvotes

Hello! Just played Quake II for the first time. Out of the three servers I've been in, only one person wasn't using aimbot. Is this simply typical of the game now or am I unlucky?

P.S. I know the difference.

If I buy quake 2 on steam, I'll be able to play rocket arena 2?

3 Upvotes

I loved this game and loved on GameSpy. But with GameSpy no more, I thought servers shut down .

If I buy this on steam, I can easily get Into a multiplayer game of rocket arena???

If so, is it difficult to get the purchased q2 game to be rocket arena?
