Nexuiz

Technology and Gaming
#1

Don’t know if anyone knows about it; Nexuiz is a free cross-platform online fps running on a highly modified Quake 3 Engine, the DarkPlaces engine.
Not the best looking game of all time, but if you want to get away from CSS, TF2 or MW2 for a while, i would recommend it.

Requirements:

400 MB of hard drive space
Windows 2000/XP/Vista (32-bit or 64-bit)
Mac OS X 10.4 or better (PPC or x86)
Linux Kernel 2.2 or better with glibc
High Quality/Recommended

  • A 1.5 Ghz Intel Pentium 4 chip or AMD Athlon 1500+ or better
  • 9600ati or 5700fx or better
  • 512 MB of ram or better
    Low Quality
  • 1 Ghz Pentium III or AMD Athlon
  • Geforce2 Video card
  • 512 MB of ram

The game can be downloaded https://alientrap.org/nexuiz/

Have fun!

you couldnt figure out to remove ‘]here’ from the link? :facepalm:

I used to play it with a couple of friends, but it got boring. When it comes to that kind of multiplayer-shooter, I prefer UT.

#5

I vote for Q3 Arena.

Whoops…

#7

It almost comes pre-installed with Ubuntu. Almost.

#8

Thats ok, shit happens.

My original comment was directed towards SURPLUS_NiNjA :stuck_out_tongue:

Nexuiz is actually a lot of fun. I hear the team got acquired by another dev house and the name was licenced. They’re making a paid version of the game, and some of the team will develop the original free FPS further under a different name.

#10

No I couldn’t because I was not that interested after Googling it, I don’t put thought into things I don’t care about.

#11

Fair enough, but it was still pretty obvious why the link didn’t work.

For the record, I too do not care about nexuiz. Lets go play some good games NiNjA. :wink:

#12

is it like warsow? that rules kidna.e

#13

I just read the other day that they want to take it to the Cryengine 3 and thus also to other gaming platforms than the PC. But that game will be commercial and not open source anymore afaik :\

#14

the team split

#15

it’s like Quake 3 arena/team arena if’y ask me.
