I have started making a mod for Quake 1.

The name is TK.

I am making a new engine + changing the progs.dat, I am using QuakeWorld has a base instead of NormalQuake for reasons.

Industria looks very generic in shots and in motion. Even if it's a good game there's no hook in anything I'm seeing (I also hadn't heard of it until that tweet was posted).

DF did a video on it a while back and said it had big Half-Life 2 vibes, which had me interested. It apparently runs like crap on a big beefy PC and I'm only a filthy console peasant so if it comes to Xbox I'll get it then! Told my PC-having, HL2-loving brother about it and he said "looks cool"

What's on your mind, Axa?
Yeah, what I've heard of Industria, it sounds good and right up my alley but also maybe needs a bit of polish and is pretty short, so it's one I'll probably pick up later.

Game development is hard, but it's even harder if you don't know how to market and sell your thing, no matter how gross selling your work makes you feel. I've not heard of Industria before, so I suspect that's where they're falling down.

In other news, here's Civvie's new video on Fallout 76.

It looks like the most mediocre shooter ever. I’m amazed how perfectly middle of the road it looks.

I watched IcarusLives’ coverage of it a few months ago and must not have been paying attention because I 100% assumed it was a game from like some Eastern European developer circa 2003-2005.

it's so generic i instantly knew i had watched another review of it but couldn't remember who, i thought it was ross (of ross's game dungeon) for some reason but had to actually search youtube to find out it was the icarus video i had watched

Might be worth checking if they've optimized the game, it brought my 3080 to its knees

The Quake Remaster has been updated with an all new Horde Mode by the MachineGames Crew with four new maps, and a new downloadable add-on in the form of Honey by CZG. Also, if you log into Bethesda.net, you'll unlock the Classic Quakeguy skin in Quake Champions and the Ranger Slayer skin in Doom Eternal. Oh, also it's on Epic Game Store now if for some reason you'd prefer to use that.

It should not run as bad as it does for being an id game. Feels wrong.

I don't know how they justify still supporting QC as a live service when the average player count is down in the ~500 range

Some of those few players must be buying a shitload of lootboxes

Isn't it mainly developed by Saber? They did build it on IdTech, but forked from IdTech 4 or 5 which weren't exactly Id at their finest

QC is a strange hybrid of an older version of Id Tech and Saber3D. Id Tech 6 just wasn't ready when development started, apparently.

I believe Saber left development quite a while ago and it's a small team at Id continuing to support things with whatever artists they can borrow from the Doom team.

I would play a lot more QC if I got to play for more than half the time I have the client launched. The countdown times are, frankly, excessive.

That said, I think pro QC is my favorite pro esport to watch. It gets real streaky but watching someone gain the upper hand and take some fool to the cleaners never really gets old.
