#QUAKE 4 MONSTERS SOFTWARE#

The Quake 4 story picks up where Quake 2 left off, with the Space Marines fighting the Strogg, this time on the enemy's home planet, Stroggos. For one reason or another, the franchise's priorities have zigged instead of zagged, and what we have now is MP maps with a 16-player cap, with only the Tournament Mode distinguishing it from the usual setup of deathmatch, team deathmatch and CTF. In fact, so much effort was put into the single-player presentation that the amount of multiplayer seems to have suffered as a result.

Unlike previous installments, single-player is there in a big way, with a winding plot, a cast of characters voiced by Hollywood actors, objective-based gameplay, light squad tactics, and countless set pieces. However, in the long run, the game is not quite what we've come to expect. And multiplayer has that same feel we've come to know from Quake: hectic, chunky, and bombastic. You'll see some things that Doom 3 didn't indicate its engine was capable of - some of which we saw in the Prey E3 demo video. The game has a good share of 'gee whiz' moments, with huge monsters, huge explosions, and huge vistas. These guys are no slouches, and the production values of Quake 4 prove this beyond a doubt. For Quake 4, they handed the reins to Raven, who themselves have worked with id and its engines for over ten years now.

Id Software has been there the whole time, particularly in multiplayer. And with players actually competing for money these days - some of them earning enough to avoid having to actually work for a living - the FPS has become a force to be reckoned with. With companies like Epic, DICE, and Valve in the mix, we've been spoiled with a wide spectrum, from awesome single-player, huge multiplayer battles, and last-man-standing tournaments. I give this a 9.00 because there's more gore on humans than usually aliens.What I'm saying is there should have been way more gore on the strogg.But,I do admit it's story mode is interesting.I still think the older Quake games were more better cause during the 90's it was amazing the graphic because they didn't have too much stuff like that.These days graphics are great but it's not so surprising because now its the modern days and we got better technology than back then.As someone who's been playing id software games since the Wolfenstein 3D days, it's been intriguing to watch shooters go from genre diversion to one of the most compelling reasons to play games on a computer. I like the strogg from Q2 better, because in this one, they're trying to be scary when they're not, like the makron, while in Q2 they're more like 'I don't care what i look like, as long as I can have a hyperblaster, 3 railguns, and a BFG10k, I'm happy' NOTE: (The teleport dropper spawns in enemies and does not directly attack the player) Range Attack: Plasma Stream, Blaster, slow moving fireball attack Range Attack: Depending on the variant, the Strogg Tactical Transfer can be armed with a Machinegun, Hyperblaster, or Railgun NOTE: (Variants include a machinegun, hyperblaster, or railgun) Range Attack: Guided Rocket Launcher, Blaster NOTE: (Variants include a blaster, machinegun, or shotgun)

Range Attack: Rocket Launcher, Banshee Scream NOTE: (The Iron Maiden has a defensive teleport) Note, if the Failed Transfer is blown in half, his upper torso will leap and try to claw the player. NOTE: (Variant include Slimy Transfer, which does not have the shotgun) Range Attack: Lighting attack with blade, Shockwave attack with blade Quake 4 Single Player Guide: Strogg Enemies
