Great Idea

[Patton]

Here is an idea for you modders...Make it to where you could play as the bad guys (Shamblers, Ogres, Enforcers, etc) and have your buddy and/or AI play as the quake guy with the weapons and you try to stop him/them as they go through regular levels. Or even a multiplayer where one whole team can be different bad guys vs the quake guys. Like a CTF or something.

Ok, make it! I expect it on my desk tomorrow. And I want 60% profit/credit.

Sounds like Versus in Left 4 Dead.

As I recall Mr Wifi (aka IEEE80211) went quite a way down this road when he made the RuneQuake plus mod. If you get the right rune you can toggle through a number of the usual Quake monsters, spawn Chthons around the place, fire rot fish through the air, have a fiend friend etc.

Kind regards

Dont think he wants to spawn them - but rather BE them.
So can select to be a shambler - have 2 attacks - claw and thunderbolt
Scrag - fly around freely and spit out the attack
Fiend - Insane jump speed and distance when attacking, normal melee claw attack
Fotfish - be useless

In IEEE's mod you can BE the monster... he had ogre.. hellnight.. rotfish.. am I missing some?

This mod ran at beatdown for a very long time, it was difficult to take down a player who was a monster.

This idea sounds fun - reminds me of "Counter Operative" from the N64's Perfect Dark.
Play as a enemy with their health, if you die. You respawn taking over another enemy again with their health.

I've just this minute played it on the start level and you can certainly play as a scrag, enforcer and shambler. You can certainly shoot homing "fighting fish" from your RL with the right rune, and the others you mentioned may well be possible (just ran out of testing time). I have to say it's still great fun and let's hope either Baker includes this in his Universal server mod or Rocket guy might be tempted to add the RQPlus runes to the bigfoot server. "vote-rqp" would certainly bring a little fun to the game

...This mod ran at beatdown for a very long time, it was difficult to take down a player who was a monster.

I suspect part of the problem is you inherit a lot of the monsters capabilities as well as their "looks" . So Shamblers have regenerating cells and have more resisitance to injury. I also seem to recall watching players like Leftism doubling up on some runes. Leftism used to be pretty hard to beat on the fear server and on his own Beatdown server he was formidable IMHO. And let's not forget the Pita lady, she could kick some butt as well

Well that is good news. Shambler on D in CTF, Let the Fiend! run Offense. GG hahahaha Where can this be played?

[Hydro...!]

Lefty is a "smart" player. Makes little mistakes and knows the ins and outs of those combo runes. Even at my skill peak he still managed to make me look like a n00b.
Pita doesnt give up easily. I still wake up in cold sweats fearing her persistence.

To get the answers to my previous post I just played it locally, but Pita used to Admin a server at Fear.Quakeone.com as I recall. Wonder if it's still up?

Hope this helps

I agree this is a great idea, I have an idea to expand this idea, for coop servers, players vs players and monsters, where the players on 1 team are players and have access to all the runes and team 2 monsters and players have no access to runes but have monsters that follow them around to prevent team 1 from getting to the keys and opening doors when doors are opened players from monster team respawn into the open door areas some distance past the doors, something like that.. all weapons accessible to every quake marine, runes exclusive to player only team. i know it sounds weird but I think it would be a fun mod to try.. also the Enterance where you pick the maps should be cubed instead of flat for new maps when they are added and would rotate when a player walks over the edge but wouldn't rotate for the people who didnt walk over the edge of the map... just some ideas..
