Shall We (me And You, Mostly Me) Make A Quake MMO?

Posted by Baker on 2021/12/05 08:33:32

Do you want a Quake MMO?

I, Baker, the strongest of us all (although I never chose to be such, but yeah I am and you know it too, I only regrettably acknowledge it) -- am trying to figure out my legacy beyond creating QuakeOne.com, Quakespasm version #0, Mark V, QuakeDroid, making a programming language and other things my "meat form" has done.

Maybe what we need to do to give this universe a proper kicking in the ass is to make a open source Quake MMO.

700 replies from 700 different users by December 25th is what we need for this to happen.

This is a great idea, thank you.

Invasions to someone's singleplayer playthrough and occasional co-op/pvp sounds interesting. Also persistent maps where mobs don't respawn right with you after map reload, but rather over time. Coop horde modes and shit would be cool too.

Go For It

Since the hostile takeover of quake by Machinegames, we need to up our game and fight back, to reclaim The Brown Game again for the community.

This could be the start of our offensive.

Just a humble suggestion.

Move over Metaverse, we’re building the Elderverse! Or the Netherverse. We’ll figure that out later.

This will be built as a mod for RuneScape, naturally. I can't wait!

So You Want To Make An MMO

Why not? This would be a fascinating project for pushing tech, if nothing else.

Only 675 Left

Count me in, although I've never played an MMO. If it's Quake based - why not.

But would rather see an updated Mark V. We could probably get 700 posts for that.

LOL Math

685 posts to go. This one doesn't count.

No idea what an MMO is but posting is free. One less to go.

#18 posted by Mr.Burns on 2021/12/06 19:41:31

I've never played or seen any form of MMO in action but if it helps the mighty Baker then I'll donate my first post here to him.
Let me know if you need any testing sir
Kind regards

Sounds Good!

I say do it and shake things up! I have faith you will do a project like this justice!

You should do something useful with your skills, and stop dicking around with a free 26 year old game. Claiming you are the strongest one at making Quake shit is like a cry for help. Go do something that is actually useful.

Alternative Point

#22 posted by Shucker on 2021/12/08 15:48:50

Unless things have greatly changed over the last 2 years, you can barely get 10 people to play a pick-up game on the existing servers. Your MMO is likely to to be more of a BAO (barely anyone online). That will be obvious when you don't even get 100 posts in this thread without a lot of duplicates, though.

Aw Look

Shucker got so angy he registered an account.

The dullard Shucker is contributing to the imminent success of this great project.

I am not angry. How could I be angry that Baker wants to waste all of his time and skills on this? What I am is realistic. This is a stupid idea and a complete waste of life. Not to forget to mention that Quake MMO already exists. It's called the darkplaces engine and accompanying server.

I would argue that it's pretty dull to waste all your time and effort customizing a 26 year old game for eleventeen people.

It doesn't matter. Without massive spam and repetition you won't get to 70 posts, much less 700.
