Only GFX improvements? Quake-style shooter? Are you guys playing the same game I am? Yes, it's an arena shooter, but it feels a lot more like Unreal than Quake, and the weapons have been improved a lot, adding quite a bit of depth to the game (and making it very satisfying to play).
I would say ut is a quake style shooter.
UT and Quake are both arena shooters, yes, but they play very differently. I don't actually like Quake much, because it is too much about twitch-response, rather than timing and strategy. I would say Xonotic is much more similar to Unreal, which I enjoy a great deal.
Come on people the game is crazy and fast(a bit faster) as quake and has possibilities of mods(mutations) and weapons like UT. Has bits from both games but uniquely composed together. Absolutely amazing game!
I would like for someone to dev this engine to a tool like Unity3d or Torque where you can script actions and trigges in game before playing. Is there a way to get netradient to be as portable as this game? Xenotic has always played on the mac, Radient varients haven't for as long as I've been trying. Any one here developed for this game? do they include blender models for the new character models or weapons?
You might wanna ask on Xonotic forums.
I should really check out Xonotic and Red Eclipse once I am back on my desktop. First time I've heard of them. I have been playing a lot of Tribes: Ascend lately and it unfortunately does not exist for Linux.
These people deserve a big fscking applause for continuing the development of the (now commercial) game Nexuiz ... they are simply amazing, their work is noticeable indeed !!
