foregone destruction, take me away

This brought back so many memories. #Quake3 and #UT99 were a huge part of my life back then, genuinely good times.
Now #gameplay footage from #Quake4: The Awakening has surfaced on #YouTube, an expansion that was cancelled after only ten months of development. The footage shows early environments, experimental mechanics and content that was clearly never finished.
Mostly documentary value, but still a fascinating look at what could have been.
Apparently some elements like the Dead Zone #multiplayer mode actually made it into the 1.3 update back then.Bittersweet to watch.

Thanks everyone for joining the first #FediverseFragNight! 🥳 Super fun evening, let's try to do this again!
And special thanks for hosting the server! 💚

It has been a while but it's finally time to get this thing rolling: Let's play some #UnrealTournament aka #UT99 together during the first #FediverseFragNight
The game can be downloaded for free and runs pretty much anywhere. https://github.com/OldUnreal/FullGameInstallers/releases
We will go for classic maps and game modes such as Deathmatch for starters, a #Mumble server will be provided.
Let's vote on a date (start time will be 7pm/19:00 UTC+2/CEST):

I was poking around a source port called Quake3e last night. The new renderer can add subtle UT99-style coronal glows to light sources.
It amuses me how much of a tell that is for UT99 environments. Q3A's feel shifts dramatically towards UT99 with these flares turned on.

/EditWould be targeting a #Europe friendly time but I won't stop people based in other regions from joining though. ;) A game and Mumble server for (optional) voice communication shall be provided.
FYI, Unreal Tournament (and Unreal #UT2004) are available for free these days and there are simple all-in-one installers available for all platforms (Linux, Windows, macOS), modernizing many aspects of the game, thanks to #OldUnreal:

Why would you wanna play #Quake3 if you can just go for #UnrealTournament? :awesome:

Apparently the UT99 community is implementing a ranked play system? Not my jam, but really fucking neat to see for a 26 year old game regardless.

To co, jakaś partyjka w #UT99? ;)
(Sorki za dziwne kadrowanie, ale najważniejsze info jest widoczne.) -
PS2 UT99 character portraits are genuinely unhinged

I typically don't like remasters of games, but #UT99 remastered in #UE5 would be something I would love. Just sing this intro makes me drool. #PCGaming https://youtu.be/0MYWzuupqx0?si=VMrTjOPLsn3QUMYV

Flak cannon goes *BOOM*, bodies go *SPLAT*. :3 #UnrealTournament #UT99 #GOG #gaming

This patch allows you to run the old Unreal Tournament (1999) on Apple Silicon. I got UT running with it in a few minutes on my M1 MacBook Air and it plays fantastically. Plus it can connect you to still active multiplayer servers.

If you didn't get them while they were still sold on GOG, apparently Epic now allows downloading #Unreal Gold and #UT99 for free, if this post is correct: https://bsky.app/profile/vinimedeiros.bsky.social/post/3lauhchax3k2w
