Quake III

Post by Cal Wright »

I know this game is like 6 yrs old now, but I just reinstalled it after a year hiatus from rail arena. I decided to run the single player again. However, on nightmare. I've beaten this game on PC and on Dreamcast. Nightmare though against Crash. I stood no chance whatsoever. Everytime I showed up somewhere I'd have two shotgun blasts on me in a heartbeat. I managed a few times to pick up the plasma gun and waste here once or twice. I wonder if there's anyone out there that's beaten this game on nightmare. If so, we gotta play multi together.

Back in the day I did, IIRC, nearly all but the last on nightmare. I went back to it not long ago and got slaughtered. Oh how practice is needed...

Oh yeah, those nightmare bots shoot a rocket directly in your face, and then quickly switch to the railgun and finish you off.

The only chance of winning against those is to use all items to your advantage (a nightmare-bot with mega-health and armor is tough to beat) and never miss a shoot :mrgreen:

However, good old QIIIA is still the best muölti-player shooter, I think.

Nothing can beat a Q3DM17 instagib deathmatch...

With practice one can become as skilled as nightmare bots. I for one become extremely accurate with the machinegun in nightmare.
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.
