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!

Quake2Live
is a multiplayer FPS video game designed to be launched via a Web
browser plugin. It offers game players a free and easily accessible
multiplayer game that uses the Quake2 engine.

Sorry, no game
play yet ... but source code has started. We are looking for feedback
and suggestions from developers as well as players.

The project is split into the following parts;

Quake2Live-Master: This is the database backend web server.
Quake2Live-Plugin: This is the web browser plugin
Quake2Live-Client: This is the Quake2 client
Quake2Live-Dedicated: Yup! we are planning user servers.

We plan to develop for the Linux. Windows, and Mac OSx platforms.

I have been trying to make maps for this game, and I just want to say that I was looking and that there are very few single player maps for Quake 2. Almost all the maps are multiplay only. I know there are some single player maps, I've played them, but there are not enough. I would like to suggest that people make more single player Quake 2 maps, provided they are decent of course. They don't have to be miraculous or anything, but I would like to see more, and I am sure that I am not alone.

Well I can direct you where to learn about MAP making. Quakepc.webs.com (Also have SP Maps) Also there are Many , many Single Player Maps out there. I played a few that took me a week of 4-5 hours a day to finish.!
Some are 'okay' while others are with a great theme and Mapping. I found a couple where I could NOT find all of the Game's Missions. I hope I helped you find what your looking for.

I had a really low configuration back in the days and had to run it on software setting for graphics. Lol when I turned on OpenGL my computer got frozen and crashed. I was scared! But it was worthy, it looked much better in OpenGL and I enjoyed those few seconds in great lighting effects and dark ambiance.
Whole game was awesome for me and still is but even today that laboratory level where you need to find the Tank Commander`s head, oh boy! That level still gives me creeps.

HAY there is one amazing mod that i cant seem to find up here!! and i just finished it to x3
The mod was called Pax Imperia, which uses the KMQuake engine. that game is pure hell xD almost reminds me of playing doom1 on nightmare, even while playing on normal. Good game, massive killings, new weapons, new sounds, new monsters, and 8 storymode maps, and its even co-op. x3
and to give an estimate on how many killings there are, try putting 2000+ monsters into 8 maps that are probably about the size of the standard maps on q2 that held 60 monsters only, like say.... the 3rd map of the first stage.
