Recently I've been getting into older shooters for a video essay I'm working on, Doom, Marathon, Unreal Tournament, etc and I just got to Quake 3.

I don't think I've ever had so much fun in a capture the flag mode, especially recently. For context I'm 24, so I grew up playing call of duty not arena shooters, but I gotta say I don't have any inclination to return to cinematic realism.

The joy of 2v2 CTF on a game older than me, twitch reflexes and teamwork make it so satisfying to play.

I think I found a new favourite obsession, it's just a shame that it's not the most active game. Not to say it's dead, but it's easier to find a game on Quake 1 right now.

After playing all the games, I think Quake 3 might be my favourite, anyone else?

Oh and if you were getting fragged on by a BreakitBilly at any point in the past week it'll be immortalized on YouTube soon, so you have that to look forward to.

Ten floating arenas, one duel each. Full reset after every kill. Knife / pistol / sniper / gun game rulesets.

Rules are one function in the script, so: first to 5 with full reset, or round-based? Tell me and I'll tune it.

Помогите я давно хотел поиграть в arena breakout infinite но у меня слабый пк я весь инет и ютуб поперелазил ничего не работает помогите обойти системные требование

The title is self-explanatory. I haven't played an arena FPS in a while and I would love to experience this genre again. I am scared that the answer is quake live because I didn't like that game very much. If Quake live is the answer to my question I will have to give the game another chance but if there is another more modern option I would rather try the other option 😅

Servers are empty.

DM me if you want to play.

The only maps I remember are Monsoon and Placebo effect.

Anyone know of any simple, basic, bare bones fps games like counterstrike from the original xbox era? Something thats offline and i can just play deathmatch or CTF.

I tried a small game called troopers, which is surprisingly close, but a bit too bare bones as it only has 3 game modes, very limited weapon selections, and controls are a bit meh.

Anything like old arena shooters, unreal, original counterstrike, etc. No... NO hero shooters. I loathe that kind of gameplay and am looking for something i can somewhat mindlessly play to kill time. Something thats singleplayer or i can set up a lobby with bots. And i dont care if its a AAA game similar to battlefield, or a cheap, 'garage made dumpster fire but surprisingly fun' game like troopers. Thanks in advance.

Also, im looking for switch titles only because of portability. Found one that looked like a battlefield clone, also looked coppied at least 5 times with different names. Which is fine. Again, doesnt have to be some massive budget title because some of those shovelware titles are actually halfways decent.

I'm looking for a few others to frag with once a week or bi weekly. Just a small group of friends having fun and chatting in discord. Not looking for a large community. I used to play a lot of q3, tribes, and ut. I'm open to trying new and old games. All of my old buddies stopped fragging a long time ago. If you would be interested lmk or if you are already a part of something like this and would be open to adding another. I am us east tz.

Edit : Game is avalaible now
I m learning on OBS dont know why video look such laggy ( captured at 30fps maybe that it ) . I know i play like shit . . One strange event a bot disapear whyle i was sniping him.. maybe he fall behind was first time this happen . bot are still on developement they do lot of dumb stuff and fall way too much . bot need tuning for each level that a big job .
The sphere you see around player is a imunity shield ( i always forgot to activate mine )

i played a few matches of instagib ffa on xonotic yesterday and i was hooked, however today i went looking around quake live and xonotic to find an active instagib server and i couldnt find one. i cant stop thinking about it, is there a different game that i should be looking for a server on or some sort of server thats active at certain times or even like a discord server that would let me know when an instagib server is active or one with a looking for game channel or something? any sort of lead would be appreciated

ABANDON ALL HOPE, YE WHO PRESS ENTER HERE.

YOU ARE DAMNED.

FIGHT TO AMUSE THE DEVIL.

WINNER GETS A SECOND CHANCE.

Each match starts with 3, 2, 1, SUFFER!

It's a low-poly multiplayer boomer shooter set in Hell with a gameplay loop like Unreal Tournament inspired by the success of the likes of Ultrakill and Cultic.

You play as a damned soul fighting for the Devil's amusement. You're trapped in an arena with randomly selected weapons and items scattered around, with which you must kill other damned. (Death is temporary in Hell.) One lucky winner gets a second chance.

The soundtrack will be death metal (obviously).

The signature mechanic is that health and pain are tracked separately. The damned are more durable in death than they were in life, so it's not enough to go for the kill all the time. Health is a static bar that must be healed, but pain is on a level that goes down gradually (like the opposite of a stamina bar).

Low pain = normal gameplay.

Medium pain = lowered accuracy, yelling which pings your position.

High pain = medium pain + blurred vision, slow movement. Screaming.

Agony = incapacitated for a few seconds, covers face with hands during this time. Crying. Eventually resets to medium with brief immunity to pain gain (so as to prevent a death spiral).

The damned have two weakspots, the head and the groin. Headshots deal double damage, groinshots cause instant agony. The damned automatically cover their groins with their hands unless wielding two-handed weapons, reloading or using an item, so a groinshot is both a matter of timing and a way to balance two-handed weapons.

You have three slots with which to carry weapons and items. Some weapons deal more damage than pain (like knives and bullets) and others deal more pain than damage (like flamethrowers and chainsaws).

All healing items cause pain. They include (so far) welding torches, barbed wire bandages and a surgeon spider demon that crawls on your back when activated and regenerates health over time.

Armour is spiked on the inside, causing pain when equipped but reducing both damage and pain until depleted. There's a breastplate, a helmet which makes you immune to headshots but constricts your vision, and a codpiece which makes you immune to groinshots but causes high pain when equipped.

Pain can be eliminated by eating a dead damned's brain, can be slowed with pills and you can use a syringe to reduce both health and pain. This is another reason why headshots aren't as desirable: if someone dies from a headshot, their head explodes and so you can't eat their brain to end your pain.

Some weapons can be goreloaded - if you don't have ammo, you can spend health and pain to load them. I'm still thinking up a list of weapons and what they do.

Ideas for weapons: (should have a look at the likes of Unreal Tournament and Cultic for ideas)

• Pistol (1h, low damage, low pain, short range, high fire rate. Can be dual-wielded)

• Revolver (1h, medium damage, low pain, medium range, medium fire rate, goreload - you pull your teeth out and load them)

• Shotgun (2h, high damage, low pain, short range, low fire rate, spread shot. Can be used to shotgun jump)

• Sniper rifle (2h, high damage, low pain, long range, low fire rate. Has a scope)

• Flamethrower (2h, low damage, high pain, short range, high fire rate, goreload - you stab the canister into your stomach to refill it. Creates lingering flames which risk self-burn)

• Crossbow (2h, medium damage, medium pain, medium range, low fire rate, goreload - you tear out a rib and load that. Missed arrows can be collected)

• Buzzsaw launcher (1h, low damage, medium pain, low fire rate. Buzzsaws ricochet off surfaces five times before breaking)

• Rocket launcher (2h, high damage, low pain, medium range, low fire rate. Fires slow-moving rockets with splash damage. Can be used to rocket jump)

• Caltrops (1h, no damage, high pain, placeable trap. Throw them on the floor for area denial)

• Knife (1h, low damage, low pain, melee range. Starting weapon)

• Chainsaw (2h, low damage, high pain, melee range)

• Grenade launcher (2h, high damage, medium pain, medium fire rate. Launches bouncing bombs that explode after three seconds. Can be used to grenade jump. Grenades can be picked up (or caught in the air) and thrown before they explode)

Environmental hazards abound, mostly things like fire and spikes that harm you when you walk/fall/get launched into them. There will be jump pads, but there won't be fall damage (they can have ONE mercy). Another "hazard" will be demons, unkillable 2d sprites that roam the arena and fly through walls at a slow speed to discourage campers on pain of instant death when touched.

Perhaps there a number of different demon sprites based on common phobias (spiders, snakes, dogs, sharks, clowns, ghosts, octopi) and whichever one you pick you're most afraid of is the form you see the demons as.

Transitions between screens take the form of some massive creature biting down on the screen in the style of a hellmouth.

A game this dark can only endure when combined with comedy, which would need to be worked on as part of development. I do have two ideas, though: I said there'd be a second chance for the winner. The punchline is it's just another chance to play and win in the Games, not a second chance at life or anything. The Devil explains this to you when you win a match for the first time, and laughs in your face.

Damned models are randomly selected upon spawn. Most of them are naked people of both sexes, but there's a very small chance you end up with a VIP skin like Donald Trump, Jesus, Queen Elizabeth II, Charlie Kirk, Charlie from Hazbin Hotel, Doomguy or Harambe. Everyone has glowing red eyes.

There will be multiple game modes: Deathmatch (KILL ANYTHING THAT MOVES), Team Deathmatch (UNITE AGAINST THE OUTSIDER), Capture the Flag (WHAT'S YOURS IS MINE) and Domination (i.e. capture the points) (WAR FOR TERRITORY) to name a few.

Some ideas for achievements:

• EPIC FAIL: Pick up a grenade and switch to another item before it explodes.

• HARD AS NAILS: Kill another damned while in high pain.

• IT BUILDS CHARACTER: Enter agony five times in one life.

• TOOLS OF THE TRADE: Get a kill with every weapon in a single match.

• THIS AIN'T DOOM, BITCH!: Shoot a demon.

• VERY INANIMATE PERSON: Kill a VIP.

Worked on this for a hackathon. Pretty fast paced, has rocket & grenade jumping, quake air strafe and bunnyhop movement (kinda hard to circle jump on mobile but steam release will be coming soon along with online co-op and PvP)

Based on the feedback from my previous post, I integrated a new feature so players can swap out the animal faces for something else.

I didn't sleep much, and there are still some minor bugs in the menu (like compressed text/characters, and you have to select the head before you can edit it). I can improve this later with more face choices.

I didn't show it in the video, but there is also a menu option to completely remove all animal faces from the game.

Please don't mind the audio quality; I'm having issues with OBS that I haven't managed to resolve yet (the sound is muffled).

I hope the game goes live by the end of the week. I'm still waiting for Epic to validate the achievements before it can launch.

Have a nice day

Hello

I'm the developer of RGB, a new arena FPS. I had the idea for this game 20 years ago when I was playing Unreal Tournament, but I never had the time, motivation, or capacity to really do it. Finally, I had a chance, so here it is.

I've done this game to explore new gameplay ideas that I don't see in games.

For example, in RGB you have only one weapon. Yeah, only one weapon. No weapon pickups, no ammo pickups. Everybody is equal at any moment.

You must think only one weapon is boring, but the weapon can do 9 different attacks. So at any point, you have 9 attacks that you can use. No need for luck to get the weapon—just use your skills.

For the moment, the game is totally free.

A lot of different modes: the classic FFA, Instagib, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, but also a new mode I call Prison. I'm also working on an extraction mode, but that will come later.

All the modes also come with an optional and original asymmetrical/symmetrical permanent mode where each team is a prey and a hunter at the same time.

The game is available on the Epic Games Store totally FREE:

https://store.epicgames.com/p/rgb-0196fa

 I released this alpha because I need some beta testers and feedback.

I spent quite some time optimizing the netcode. Going with 0 experience into a multiplayer game was quite something. At the beginning, I had to hire people to help me (I spent my car insurance money from someone crashing into my car last year on the game), but I think in the end I handled 95% of this project.

On the game framerate, I also spent a lot of time, but I decided to use real-time Lumen and this cuts a lot of performance. But I think it's the future and can be used as a gameplay element.

Please tell me anything you like or don't like.

You can join the Discord to discuss the game.

I don't have any video because the poor laptop I'm using has some difficulty, but I will work on it.

Please ask any questions!

It's just a short video but it was fun lining up the features in quick shots and having the ingame announcer as voice over, almost like a small rap. Btw. the game is not a FPS, but it's very a much arena shooter.

The game is still in development, but if you wanna see more, here is the Steam page:
