Hey /v/, i've some questions:
Is better quake (original) or quake 2?
Why?
Which have the best community mods?
Different games, man. I prefer Quake 2's multiplayer, but Quake 1 had better singleplayer.
Decide for yourself

Q1 definitely has the better mapping community, I threw in a bunch of mappacks

Quake 1, not even a contest
>>342499285
Oh shit a q2 with the .pak files included you da man!
>>342498303
they are both very different
quake 1's levels don't drag because they are short and to the point the enemies are more interesting than 2 as well movement is subjective
quake 2 is technically better in every other aspect though
the original has way more mods and is generally more accessible
Quake 1 - the soundtrack alone...
Quake 1 fucking shits all over 2. Only thing 2 has over it is better tech.
Is Quake worth it if I'll only play single player? I feel like it's one of those games I need to play just cause.

Quake 1 is all about the SP
I prefer Quake II because better shooting and MP
>>342498303
arcane dimensions mod for q1 is what quake 2 should've been
>>342502523
yes, that is Quake 1's main focus and appeal. Online didn't really become the focus until Quake 3 arena
>>342502523
Quake 1's level design is the best in the genre from a purely gameplay perspective and hasn't really been attempted to be matched by any other game since. It was one of the last FPSs that carried the same level design principles as the original Doom and had highly abstract levels that were designed with gameplay first over realism.
"HUNH! HUNH!"

quake 1 with the ultimate quake patch. shit is gud
quake 2 isn't the same
Playing that Quake 2 download and it's fucking awesome.
By the way, is this a sourceport? If so who is it by?

>quake 1 with the ultimate quake patch
stop recommending this.
>>342502523
yeah it's still good, it might seem a bit simple though and very short
>>342502741
I dunno about that but the mission packs are worth playing and there are a lot of good levels you can find on quaddicted.com
>>342503053
at this point the quake brand can be literally anything (as long as it's a shooter) it's just a blank slate
>>342503141
QW was a big deal
>>342503440
for quake 2 use yamagi or Q2pro vanilla is also completely fine but those others have some neat features and make net play retard proof
>>342503565
nigga it's so much better than vanilla. are you fucking serios?
