Quakecon 2007

their new game is a fast fps in their tradition not the racing thing they showed at the mac event that was just to show potential engine licensees that the engine is capable of much more than enclosed corridor shooters.

hope ggl fix the vod's 5fps + interlacing sucks and there gonna be some awesome games to come in the quad damage tourney.
 
id Tech 5 was shown at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference. I dunno why I keep saying Mac World.

You sure that was a racing tech demo?
 
Quake Wars competitive play with casting go on right now btw. It's pretty good. A little slow in the frames from the feed but good action.
 
Is GGL going to cover the keynote as well (live, i hope) or are they just focusing on the competition?
 
It looks like GGL is only VoD, so we won't see it until after. I'm going to join the quakecon irc, hopefully there's live updates.
 
6:23: Hollenshead: "You guys ready for some Wolfenstein news?" Crowd is, but apparently they aren't. More information coming soon. Raven developing, Threewave Software contributing to multiplayer.

No Wolfenstein :(

God, steam is finally starting to kick ass, awesome that ID is supporting valve with that.

Hopefully that new IP won't be years off.
 
6:28: Quake 3 Arena logo on screen. Still 10th most popular game on GameSpy. "We appreciate what you guys have done over the years in building the popularity of the game. ... We also like 'free.'" "We at id are building a second team, our first project is Quake Zero, which means zero cost, zero hassle. You'll be able to play Quake 3 in your web browser for free, supported only by advertising dollars."
Hell yeah!
 
Slowed down a bit now it seems, the first 15 minutes were crazy!

Edit: Or not.

6:36: id Tech 5 logo on screen. Crazy shit surely incoming. "I think we still have the most important announcements to go." John Carmack will be talking about it, Hollenshead is introducing.

"There's another option out there for developers and publishers to use other than what's out there on the market."

:D
 
Hollenshead: id Tech 5 will run equally well on any platform, not in any company's pocket, "and for you press, you can print that."

Salvos have been fired at Epic.
 
"Everybody knows we're going to do a good job with the run and gun action stuff...but we are branching out." Driving, other gameplay as well. Trailer time!

hmmm
 
Trailer time! Incredibly detailed character models and environment, depth of field, camera following fly buzzing around, even fly is incredibly detailed. NPC addresses screen, good facial animation. Numerous driving scenes, looks sort of Motorstorm-esque.

Game title is Rage.

Good for them. I hope, just for competition sake, id can overtake epic.
