New QUAKE 4 Demo

[Jun 23, 2007, 5:16 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The id Software Website is offering a new multiplayer demo for QUAKE 4 (thanks Frans), based on the new version 1.4.2 patch (story), while offering content different from the QUAKE 4 demo released in November 2005 (story). Word is:

Following closely behind the release of the QUAKE 4 1.4.2 Point Release Patch, the QUAKE 4 1.4.2 Multiplayer Demo is now available for download. The new Multiplayer Demo comes with three maps, VERTICON (q4xtourney2), OVER THE EDGE (q4dm7) and SPEED TRAP (q4ctf3) for your enjoyment.

The QUAKE 4 1.4.2 Multiplayer Demo is not compatible with any other versions of QUAKE 4, including the retail edition of QUAKE 4. Therefore, players will only be able to connect and play against other QUAKE 4 1.4.2 Demo users.

World war 3

I liked the single-player part of this game, but the MP seemed like a shallow imitation of Quake III.

Minus the atmosphere.

It's a wasted effort to release a demo, which is not compatible with the retail version. It means that the one or two people who will try this demo will be alone on their server. Great marketing.
