game's still got it, even if i don't. it's quake 3 cranked to 11. only for a specific sort of fps player, who wants Melty Blood or kof02 more than Street Fighter or Tekken. emphasis is on aggressive play: fast forward movement, near-instant weapon switching allowing free weapon combos, tanky quakeworld armor system forcing constant position shifting. best for tight interconnected maps (aerowalk, toxicity, use&abuse) more than the huge itemcontrol playgrounds of q3dm6/13 or q2dm1.

to drop the genre jargon: this is the fastest competitive shooter you will ever play, beyond tribes, titanfall, gunz, gears2, team fortress, any UT, or honestly even derivatives like xonotic and warsow. no surprise it ruined the quake community forever. just get used to wiggling your mouse around.
