Dissapointing game

Quake is one of my favorite shooter series, and this... this is just not it. Slow, too scripted and boring.

Nice just not quake...

I came fresh from Quake 2 remaster and I remembered why I have never finished Q4 back in it's day. Too slow, too tactic, too squad based, too dark. Anyway the graphics are still great and it is a fan game, just not for anyone who come fresh from the insanly fast and crazy Quake 2 or Doom 2016 or anyway from games that go way faster than this slow pased game. Fingers crossed for a Doom 2016 remake for Quake!

Boring, uninspired sequal to Quake 2

I liked Quake 2 a lot and I was looking forward to giving Quake 4 a try (I didn't play it when it came out, only now, in 2021). The good: it didn't crash and it ran well on a high-end computer. The bad: the story is uninspired and feels like a clone of Quake 2. I liked it there but here the maps are just convoluted mazes set up to railroad the player from one ambush to another. The lighting/shadows are awful - there are literally pitch black areas right next to row of bright ceiling lights. The ambient light setting is a joke, I'm not sure why it was put in. The guns are near-unusable - only the two weakest guns have lights (which is needed all the time, see above) and the others have delays so when an enemy shows up, it's not possible to fire at them right away. All the weapons are under-powered and some enemies take a ridiculous number of hits even on the easiest level. I used to be decent in Quake 2 and 3 but in this game I died constantly, even on the easiest setting. Quake was always an arcade shooter but for some mind-boggling reason, they added reloading in this version, trying to make it a tactical shooter? It doesn't work - if I want to play a tactical shooter game, I'd play Arma 1/2/3, not this laughable effort. Textures look pretty generic and low-quality (even with the manual config changes to fix texture quality) and the same textures are reused everywhere. I could've sworn Quake 2 had better variety. Definitely not recommended, even with a heavy discount. I don't think this game is worth anything more than $1.

Didn't work.

Maybe the game is too old and not optimized for my computer. It would make it to the main menu but would lock up and/or not read my mouse and keyboard. I cannot play this game with my current PC. Though I do remember owning the disc version back in the day. It's a really good game with a great story.

Great single player BUT no online gaming

Apparently does not come with CD key. This disables Quake 4 online gaming. I did purchase this from GOG but I ended getting it also via Steam as Steam version comes with CD key and full online functionality.
