Is Quake 2 Mecha?

>>13995034
the mechanical stuff is

Strogg are pretty /m/.

I Just wish they weren't all brown and gray.

>>13995034
Yes, along with Quake 3, Quake 4, ET Quake Wars, and Quake Live

>ET Quake Wars
I keep forgetting that is a thing. To this day I've never played it.

If you were clever enough to play in OpenGL mode you'd discover that they are not. Why, they're all the colours of the rainbow.

I had a Gundam model in Quake 3 way back when.

I think UT is more /m/ though.

Quake 2 is unironically one of my favorite tech demos.

Too bad it keeps erasing my save data for whatever reason.

I really want to play an oldschool bouncy shooter but I'm on Windows 10 so Quake 2 refuses to run.

Any ideas?

Try going to Properties->Advanced Options and change the compatibility of Quake 2 to Windows 98 (or 2000)

>>13995034
What is that? ISIS robot?

Underrated keks.

Kids today don't even know.

>>13998743

Fuck you faggot. You know that shit almost never works.

>>13998733

Go buy a 50 dollar junker at a pawn shop and play it on that.

I fucking loved Quake 2.

Remember the concept of Total Conversions?

Man, I feel so fucking old now.

Quake 4

Yes or No?

But seriously, it's this magical mix of fun and jank that I can't not smile at.

It's FUN.

>>13998733
There's about a billion source ports out there. I wouldn't even know where to begin, but by default Win 10 won't be a problem with most of them.

>>13998733
Virtual box,then

i still have a friend who plays quake 2 religiously. seriously. he plays it with like 30 other people on the entire planet, mostly europoors. we were really into it in middle/high school, 98-2002ish? when mplayer/heat/gamespy were still around. he picked it up again recently and got me to play a few times. still just as fun strafe jumping around and trying to do superficial circle/strafe/double jumps around q2dm1. the community just isn't there, unfortunately.

i'm sure if you went to tastyspleen there'd be some answers to getting q2 to work on w10.

>>13998733
First, uninstall Windows 10.
Second, whether or not you're retarded enough to continue using Windows 10 you should get a modern version of Quake 2. Google up Q2 v3.24. Unlike some shitty source ports this doesn't change the gameplay or graphics in any way. It's just Quake 2 for modern systems. It also can play the music from ogg files instead of the CD.

>>13999055
No. Gameplay wise it's not even slightly Quakey in single player and it makes no attempt to look anything like Quake 2. (Can't even get the fucking sky colour right, never mind the Strogg). In multi it's just a awkward Quake 3 clone with worse framerate. No reason to exist.

What's so bad about 10?

>>14002271
You're joking. How's this for a start: it can't play Quake 2. Even Windows 7, piece of shit that it is, can do that.

>>14002382

You're going to need more than that to convince me.

>>14002606
Like I give a toss about your poor decisions. If you don't give a toss about privacy, speed or compatibility then you deserve what you get.

>>14002630

It sure seems to upset you.

Are you one of those GENTOO fags that's constantly trying to get stuff to work with your freeware and mad that other people are doing stuff without spending weeks trying to get it to work?

>>14002673
Not him, but even from a non-freetard point-of-view, Windows 10 is definitely worse than 7 or 8. Extremely buggy at launch, constantly mining your data to sell you products and a lot of programs that worked perfectly for me in 7 BSOD in 10. That and the constant updates are more than enough reasons to just stick with 7 or 8. If you care about those reasons, then you should probably avoid Windows 10 with all your might. Otherwise, use it if you want, I don't care.
