Quake 2 is another classic from id software.

While not modded quite as much as it's predecessor or Q3A, it is still a blast to play and the mod's on offer are bundles of fun. Just step into Quake 2 Rocket Arena, armed with the new and almighty rocket and rail gun and you will be gibbing for hours on end.

If you dig fast paced action, then load up the good ole Quake 2, fire up a mod or two and have some fun!

Double world records while completing Quake Enhanced Edition in 18:06 and in 16K UHD video resolution (15360 x 8640 pixels) for the first time on YouTube. I used Intel i9 9900K and Nvidia Titan RTX video card.

Enjoy all the levels preview with updated Enhanced visuals and keep in mind that Quake II enhanced does not understand correctly some movement from Quake II classic original - this is why sometimes movement is jerky due that it does it even at 999 fps at 4K UHD video resolution.

I like the original Quake better but this is by no means a bad game, a good old shooter with some nice features added since the last game.

For newcomers, you can start with the remastered version but keep in mind they took some liberties with it and changed elements that affect how the game played originally. Some weapons and enemies behave differently now, you can find addons to revert the changes back, those should have been optional. Other than that Nightdive knocked it out of the park yet again, id software treats their classic titles very well.

The Quake 2 remaster that dropped today is pretty fantastic IMHO.
Nightdive has made a well done effort in this! ^-^

q2xp 1.27.0 in my opinion a disgusting port that ruins the Quake atmosphere

I played the game all the way through in 1997 when I got my first PC and it still hasn't lost any of its charm. At the moment I'm playing it again and I'm thrilled at what you can see with Quake2XP in [4K]. Graphically, of course, there's no comparison to back then. It remains to be seen whether someone likes it vanilla or would rather experience it graphically enhanced in this day and age. I belong to the second group.

I currently publish videos of custom single player maps on my channel.

Is there a Mod that does something like brutal Doom? Like being able to kick enemies and dismember limbs etc.
