you're implying that these grotesque polar bears were somehow "hard"?

If so... wew lad!
If anything, 90s devs did not patronize the gamers, and instead provided challenges kids and adults were burning to crack and survive through.

Bear in mind I only recently started playing Quake and have been spoiled by shooters with mouselook
I'll get around to finishing hard once I finish all the episodes on normal and figure out where the secrets are.

>>389376369
>that texture

God that looks unfitting as fuck, especially the waist area where you see its guts even though the original had no such thing.

>>389377971
Aren't shamblers supposed to be hairy, like a bear?

>>389377971
Not to mention the lack of fur.

>>389377581
>spoiled by shooters with mouselook
Quake has mouselook you fool

>>389377567
But if an enemy is teleported into a solid brush (which the sky is) it'll just fall out of the world and if they're spawned there on map start you'll get a leak and vis won't work when compiling.

>>389377581
Quake is meant to be played with mouselook, you dunderhead.

>>389378164
Yes but Quake's mouselook doesn't let me turn.

Sadomasochism.

Romero says that they have fur.

Carmack says that they're hairless.

No one really knows. Romero says they're supposed to have shaggy coats, like a yeti (which is fitting for the setting and inspiration), Carmack (Adrian, nor John) says it's light colored skin.

If nothing else Quake Champs has a Shambler head cosmetic that looks fucking leagues better than every one of the god-awful 'QUAKE 1 SUPER HD REMAKE VISUAL UPDATE EPISOLDONE' like >>389376369 where they take a fucklhuge texture and put it on the original 100-poly model.

>>389378245
What the hell are you talking about? Go into the options and turn mouselook on and lookspring/lookstrafe off. You can even clearly see the player both moving around and looking up/down and left/right in the main menu demos.

I don't exactly know how they did it. It was on the 100 brush challenge pack if you want to see it, I forget what level.

Basically, the sky contained hell knights and vores, if you were in view of the sky, they shot projectiles at you. Being a 100 brush challenge, there wasn't a whole lot of room to maneuver and dodge them.

Stop putting those single fucking spawns into maps, it's not funny. Seriously, the worst enemy ever made in the history of video games.

...what the fuck are you doing with your life and game?

Quake and its players LITERALLY invented WASD+Mouse control scheme!

The two Shamblers on 1-3 are easy as fuck to kill, just hide in that little passageway and chip away at them with the nailgun.

The Arcane Dimensions mod for Q1 includes a number of visual updates for vanilla entities aside from the new stuff, including reskins (with randomized visual appearance for face, kneepads, etc.) for the idbase enemies (including the player's own Ranger playermodel), the weapon and armor pickup models, Knights, Shamblers, etc. Lots of people don't even realize it's a thing because it's not advertised as a feature of the mod anywhere and the visual updates are so close in design to the originals that you don't even notice until one day you kill a Grunt and spot the pockets on his pants are modeled instead of textured. The updated Shambler does look like shit though so I'm not going to post that.

Moreover, everything keeps to the original game's palette and texture scale limitations so nothing is standing out like a sore thumb like all the super-HD Dorkplaces mods out there.

>miniboss
what the fuck? his ai is wonky, he is useless if you make use of any cover whatsoever or simply getting up in his fucking face and forcing the melee animation. quake (and it's sequels) is one of the few fps i can actually beat on nightmare, it is way more forgiving than doom

>don't even bother updating the model

>>389382749
i dont know much about 3d modeling but they would have to redraw everything and remap it to a new model which is much more work comparatively to simply retexturing

>>389383760
Go big or go home, there's no reason to have such a high resolution texture on such a low poly model. The low-definition model sticks out like a sore thumb compared to the texture, whereas the original texture was actually designed for and fits with the model.

>>389384268
obviously it satisfied the creator so it already served it's purpose. nobody makes free projects for anything other than their own hobbyist enjoyment

>>389384485
Nah it's terrible. Why they made the guy that added loadouts to QL the lead designer of QC will forever be a mystery to me.
