So, OpenArena supports mods, like the game on which it is based. and, even more important, OpenArena is born. Q3A and Q3:TA source code is now "free" (under GNU GPL license), so ioquake3 is born. Quake III Arena has support for mods, and id Software released an official (and commercial) mod called Team Arena for it (and many gamers created free mods for Q3A). It's also the perfect time to give it a shot before elite players make online matches less enjoyable to play.A " mod" is an "add-on", a "modification" that changes one or more aspects of a videogame. I've been playing earlier betas for the last few months, but now it's finally starting to look like a complete product, with more UI polish and player models I don't entirely hate. That includes new character models, more maps and an infection gameplay mode. Still, its most recent beta release, Season 0, has added a lot on consoles and PCs. I didn't know how much I missed the days of simple multiplayer shooters, games with quick matches that deliver a direct dose of adrenaline and dopamine all at once, until I started playing Splitgate.Įven though it's become wildly popular over the last few months, Splitgate hasn't officially launched yet. They take longer to play, and one screw-up could take you out of a match entirely. Battle Royale titles like PUBG and Apex Legend changed the landscape with enormous maps with 100 players, but they've always felt more like tense survival games than huge fragfests. I've gotten into plenty of shooters over the years, but they've never quite scratched my Quake 3 itch (perhaps because I never again had vast amounts of free time to eat pizza and play all day). And being able to sneak up on a camping sniper by throwing a portal behind them is always satisfying. A chase through a corridor could easily get wild as you jump between multiple portals. All of a sudden, walls high up on the map could give you a vantage point to snipe oblivious foes. Splitgate's subtle complexity is what makes it addictive. If you can sneak up on an enemy with portals, they can do the same to you. And of course, it goes the other way too. Being able to strategically use portals is just as important as being a crack shot who's memorized every map. But in practice it fundamentally changes how they work. That may seem like a small, even quaint, addition to the world of 4v4 online shooters. Update your settings here, then reload the page to see it.
