Which is the king of FPS?

Did OP just watch RetroAhoy's video?

I prefer Quake if you're comparing Doom 1 to Quake 1. Quake was better in every way.

Doom 1 vs Quake 1? Quake 1
Doom 2 vs Quake 2? Doom 2.

It is pretty good. l love his DOOM retrospective as well. lt's always nice to sit back, watch, and have those fond memories flood back.

Quake multiplayer and Doom single player.

Doom is superior to Quake in single player.
Quake is superior to doom in multiplayer.

Doom

Quake was technowank with no sense of design.
>>
I'd say that Quake was the better game but I still prefer Doom over Quake 1 in certain aspects.
I just think that Reznor's dark ambient soundtrack and the vastly changer atmosphere of Quake 1 could compete with Doom's heavy metal inspired hell fest.
Had fun playing both games though and they still excell modern shooters' gameplay in every possible way.

Ok

Is Quake 1 really that good? I've played the shit out of all the Doom games, but I never even played Quake as a kid because my computer couldn't run it. I even had the shareware episode on a demo disc but I was SOL.

What's the best way to play it?

This. Doom has raw speed but quake makes you play more frenetically.

Play Quake. Glquake runs on pretty much anything. You may need to use dosbox to install if you have an old version of Quake. Otherwise I'd say pick it up and play it and the two mission packs too.
>>
Doom. Hands down. Ask anyone who worked at id and they'll tell you the same thing. Quake is good but Doom just never stops being fun.

Half-Life.

Yes and I'm glad it's catching on on /v/ that it's damn well worth revisiting.

Me too, I've been pushing this shit for years. Unreal too.
>>
>>337749598
Quake changed more and is about 70% of source engine. I feel there's too many people who think doom was more ground breaking. It wasn't. Simply the most popular at the time. Quake innovated more and laid the framework and foundation for more. Which one you like more is up to taste.
>>
>>337748756
I 100% agree with this.
>>
>>337749668
Half life's engine, like many of valves games, is mostly Quakeworld. Doom 1 and 2 are honored dead heroes. Quake lives.
>>
>>337749949

na

source 1 barely had any quake source code

goldsrc on the other hand had a lot

Whoa there slick it is far from dead.

More influential and important to game history? Quake. I want to say Doom, but it wasn't even the first FPS, and games would be ripping off Quake way more than Doom for years to come.

Doom is still the better game overall though.

I just got done talking about Unreal in another thread, it's such a masterpiece of scope in a video game. It's like an epic in video game format: Traversing a planet that used to house an ancient civilization that has fallen to decay, their numbers splintering while fighting off an alien menace.

Oh right.
>>
>>337750592

You seem to forget that Doom was the game that made modding a viable thing.

Before Doom, the most people would do was modify stat files and attempt to jury-rig things in Wolf3D that almost broke the game. With Doom, the user could more or less remake the entire game in their vision, which hadn't really been done before.

Sure, Quake may have pioneered true 3D FPS, but Doom had a larger influence than just being popular.

Team Fortress began as a Quake mod.

Anyone else enjoyed Quake 4? I actually liked the whole strogg vs human feel and no time travel shit
>Mfw you cringe out of impulse from this scene

>>337751113

True, but if Doom modding hadn't proven as successful as it had, there wouldn't have been a modding scene to provide us with Team Fortress.
>>
>>337751149
It felt way too similar to doom 3 and was released too close next to it.

>>337751270
It was one of the first 360 titles so it had more time to be polished. Pls it had pretty fun vehicles.

Modding with doom was stupid easy. Made a couple of my own with my brother when I was 13. We replaced the sounds of the guns with various toys. Had one of those electronic toy guns that cycled through different sounds when you pulled the trigger. Modded the bfg to make the sound when you get a Tetris. Made some custom maps too, but I was too dumb and young to do that. My older brother made a Shakespear play or model of the stage in doom.... Pardon me for going down memory lane.

The shotgun in Quake fires much faster than Doom's, and it's pretty damn accurate assuming you have the aim. If you're using it on the more dangerous enemies, no shit it's going to take ten shots, that's why you pull out a more powerful weapon, Doom isn't an exception to that either.

I also don't see how Doom has any prestige to talk in terms of bosses.

Doom by far. Although Quake's multiplayer is perfect.

Quake 1 setting was such a clusterfuck and yet so unique

doom was literally a top-down shooter in first person

>>337748630
Quake, if we're considering multiplayer.
>>
>>337751939

I think Carmack said he was getting tired of the Strogg storyline of Quake and would like to see it return to the setting of the first game.

This was before he left id a few years ago though. So, fuck.
>>
Fighting shit in Quake feels less satisfying than in Doom, which is a shame because the Rocket Launcher and the Shper Nailgun are fucking great weapons.

Quake 1 is worth playing for the rocket launcher alone.

Literally the most perfect weapon ever designed.

I think this is the correct answer.

Doom.

Quake is unfinished garbage, the animations are fucking terrible, flinches work on a threshold system, the levels are tiny and all the weapons feel like shit.
