Quake 2 - Gameplay

[Hellquake]

I'm the Hells Q U A K E

[Szederp]

Just not the same without the kick-ass music.

[SR71ABCD]

Brought Quake 4 and got bonus disc Quake 2.

[Cioppy95]

awesome game...i'm a girl but i love it!

[rcarkk]

LEGEND!!!!

[hokkypro]

best thing bout quake 2 is the sound acturally :P

[FernandoMendoza775]

I miss playing this all the time as a kid. Damn. (':

[N73B60]

@FernandoMendoza775 in your pirated copy?

[FernandoMendoza775]

@N73B60 Lmfao...maybe. O___o

[mikeyskates45]

HOW DO YOU PURCHASE THIS ! I WANT THAT GAME

[MccKenZo]

I think quake 2 is better than quake 3 :P

[kzbxvz]

This is good old school FPS shoot and destroy everything in sight, pick up goodies, never ask for anything :)

[FamousColumbo]

More than 10 years ago ... :) because I like memories too much

[KonopKg]

Where is the fucking music man ? 0_o

[MrBOWMrBOW]

i always play it on hard :DD

[sedn]

There is a "secret level" in the water ( 8:54 ) where you can obtain the "super shotgun".

[Rauser142]

Most important thing in games its not graphics not even multiplayer. Its atmosphere. Look at Quake, Doom 3 or Half Life especially first one they had sharp, manly atmosphere without any hollywood bullshit with those ,,mature'' stories. Mature my ass whats so mature about story line full of cliches like ,, im back guyz r u suprised '' or yelling ,NOOOO'' when somebody dies. There are some good fps games like Killzone and Resistance but this is still not it if you know what i mean.

[kzbxvz]

@Rauser142 You're so right man!

[mortdepeur13]

it was so fun when i was 4 and play that game in 1997... memories!!!

[verywhiteguynoKKK]

STILL a great game,awesomeness

[BakedFrenchToast]

Easily one of the best games ever

[TruthSeekerDW]

This is a classic !!!!! I miss the days when PC games were great like this. Consoles have destroyed PC gaming. All we get now are dumbed down console ports. I don't even bother playing any new games. 98 percent of games out now are garbage. Being a PC gamer, the only titles worth playing now are PC exclusives. Unfortunately, they are an extreme rarity these days. I would much rather settle for lesser graphics, and not have to deal with button bashing, lackluster story, and QTE.

[supertom227]

i love this game. i use to play it when i was younger

[diaboarder]

Quake > all

[xXiVAn94FiXx]

i was born in 1994 and played this videogame (on PC) with my dad beside me.... when i heard the sound in this video.... i jizzed in my pants

[rafanel81]

so loved this game!! i got old lol :D i played it in 2000

[TheAdam159]

I just love old school shooters the way id used to make 'em. Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake. That's what I grew up on. Haven't played RAGE yet, but I'm sure it must be better than today's Camper of Duty: Modern Lagfare games

[TheAdam159]

Makes me feel old, all you guys saying this game is old, lol. I was 16 when Quake 2 came out. I remember when this was the state of the art! It's still a great game now. FPS's were not a dime a dozen yet, it was only really id's ones (Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake) and a few other clones (Duke Nukem 3D, Hexen, Rise of the Triad, etc) at that point. These days, every other game that comes out is another FPS. It's getting tired. But this was back when FPS was king.

[TheAnipotimus]

@TheAdam159

You think you feel old? I was 20 when this was first released and later even contributed a few levels to one of the level expansion packs. I played Q2 for days at a time.

[BakedFrenchToast]

@TheAdam159 haha I'm with ya man

[verywhiteguynoKKK]

@TheAdam159

i understand the feeling,im 30

[zack130689]

wata hek they where shooting at each other well i seen them when i play

[MrHueJazz1]

I loved playing this game! I used to get the enemy to fire at each other in a crossfire and then sit back and watch them battle each other. lol

[AllToxic]

Nice Game



[0xTheMaster0x]

i know this game.its very old as shit..

this is the first game i played or...nope..the first game was doom95.

[I66Mhz]

OHH sooo many memories!!!

[andrezenz]

Best game ever made, remember playing this in 1998.. it was so awsome

[joojoobomb]

@andrezenz this. quake 2 is my favorite game of all time.

[D4rQW4v3]

back in days this game was kickass well this game is still fkin kickass

[D4rQW4v3]

this game was depressive for me like hell and I loved it

[irllcd13]

It's sad that the shareware version of Quake 2 is 10 times better than the entire Call of Duty franchise.

[SuperLumipallo]

It's not long when I played this through on Hard mode.. usually i get frustrated and quit if i get stuck or killed more then 5 times.. but quake was different.. the graphics maybe not are top notch compared nowadays games.. but the gameplay is polished to the max.. something that never fps games seem to lack BADLY!

[KrazyDanProductions]

Don't know why but everytime I tried to record Q2 with fraps nothing every happened. It turns on but no video gets recorded.

[PlasmicRedX]

@KrazyDanProductions I think this video was made with Steam's version of Q2 which may behave differently. I have another Q2 video which was made with the KMQUAKE2 engine which records just fine. (I tried to edit KMQUAKE2's media files to try and make the blaster, railgun, smoke, and bullet decals to look more like they do in Q2 so if your KMQUAKE2 looks different than mine, that's why)

[moatassemp]

@PlasmicRedX do u now how can i download this games on my pc

[zinflexy]

want to play a modern game that stays kinda true to the roots? try TF2, the gameplay is pretty similar if you think about it

[Cytrome]

@zinflexy NO

[zer0nable]

my favorite quake version with best railgun

[MCwilliamProductions]

Uploaded 2011?!?!?!



[JoshuatheKodiak]

Hmm - I saw a video where gamers complained about all the 'tips and hints' that modern video games got. Like they are made for stupid people, is the argument.

then I see this video: "You can crouch here" "press up to move up to the ladder'.

[PlasmicRedX]

@JoshuatheKodiak Ah, the old hand holding vs. no hand holding argument. Windows vs. UNIX.

Myself, I like to believe that there's a holy grail quest for a balance of the two.

As for the help messages mentioned in this video, just think of how many people actually read them. By my guess, not many, since the game doesn't force you to read them.

[VolitionsAdvocate]

@PlasmicRedX An addendum to that. When this game came out FPS's were still not dime a dozen like they are now. and ladders and "crouching" were not common traits in shooters of the time.

[MrGmodlol61]

Fake, theres no bloody speed flying all over the level like in most videos :D

Just kidding, that seems so impossible, but its just because games nowadays are simply easy...

[hovsep56]

i remember having this for free when i bought quake 4

[dirkdiggler15061985]

you play it like cs

[PlasmicRedX]

@dirkdiggler15061985 Interesting that you'd say so, because, when I made the video, I wanted to play it how I originally played when I first learned to play Quake II. Which also demonstrates Quake II's stealth elements.

It's only in Multiplayer or when attempting to show off in Singleplayer that most people turn into bunny hopping elite professional gamers.

[dirkdiggler15061985]

@PlasmicRedX It's true, you could play Quake II fast or tactical and stealthy. I just always prefered "Brain-Off + run + give pain with the gun" mode. and i miss it in new games :-( btw. nice video

[PlasmicRedX]

@dirkdiggler15061985 Thanks dude! I like to try and play like that too. :-)

[Snowuk95]

Oh the good ol' days <3

[echelon271]

Good Forever, Classical Game .... every thing start from here in 98 :( i prefer to play her than new games ^^

[AdassLT]

This game is OLD but great game!!

[poochies0316]

Ahh this and Longbow2 that was a great year for PC's

[ThaMysteriousGamer]

i remeber this lol

[starfoxfan123]

This game reminds me sooooo much of unreal tournament (especially the pistols lol)

[SuperSwedishBastard]

Man I love this game, I strongly dislike people that say that this game is bad because it's old and has bad graphics, who the hell cares?

Games were so much better back in the old days, so much better, like Quake II, best game soundtrack ever IMO.

Real gamers play this instead of for example MW3 when it comes out.

Long live Quake!

[SmilingProtoss]

@SuperSwedishBastard Those are what we call COD Fanboys, who only enjoy COD for graphics and online gameplay. Games like this always have you shoot badguys while solving puzzles and grabbing a huge arsenal of weapons and using them, and that's fun. Today's games usually slap a linear campaign with only 5 levels total and you jump through multiplayer with an immature yet laughable community of 8-year-olds.

[MrShakermaker46]

Used to bash this game back in the day nice one

[ORTmusic]

Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great game series such as Quake. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!

[PlasmicRedX]

@ORTmusic Replying and Not Spam Buttoning to Help Your Comment Get Seen.

[PaddyShadowMusic]

@PlasmicRedX That's a nice gesture. But the music is epic enough to deserve it.

[Zamudiokid]

How do I make my game to full screen mode? I cant see my stats, at all.

[NigarT]

You've brought me back to the late 90's with your Quake 2 fandom. Keep up the good fight, especially the Memphis area. We're ready for 2000's Memphis LAN parties. Contact me at goodwrench3rcr@yahoo.com. Please let me know of any formal movements.

[radioactivetwinky]

when this game came out the graphics and sounds were like HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER.

[patrycja69211]

I know the codes for this game

[patrycja69211]

nice xP

[AdamX21198]

I love playing old games on my semi-high end pc... No lag...

[KR1T1C4LZ]

i love the background noise (not the static radio) at 0:40

[pablomendez256]

Best game of all time

[Mindravel]

this game definitely is much more fun than all of these totally overloaded games today.

[jiraiya720]

thank alot for the upload.........my first 1st person shooter, soo nostalgic.... :'(

[hitzmansam]

When everything goes wrong...

Step 1. "GIVE ALL"

Step 2. Bring out the BFG10K

FUCK YES O_O

[PlasmicRedX]

@highvoltage138 You'd have to have a very low IQ to not get the joke. Sorry.

[atalarikt]

@TheMorbidAsshole no, definitely quake 2 was'nt a sequel of quake 1, it's only because of its name(id software was too confused to get the name, so they use quake 2 as its name)

[skullcrusher450]

this comes with the quake 4 collectors edidition right?

[Tyrfingr]

ID knew how to make games that kicked ass.

[wtrdogg20]

@Tyrfingr but with disappointing endings......

[TheMorbidAsshole]

is quake 1 still war agains stroggs?

[wtrdogg20]

@TheMorbidAsshole not really...

Quake 2 and Quake 4 are the same story.....Quake 1 and Quake 3 have nothing to do with each other or with any other Quake game.

[evelic]

I remember playing this game on my play station 1. I had a lot of fun with it. Eventhough today looks good to me. Aaaah i love the feeling i get when a watch a video of an old good game i used to enjoy.

[PlasmicRedX]

@evelic Thanks for this comment. I enjoy that kind.

[playmovie696]

@evelic i get the same priceless feeling my friend. this is like the wine the older the better.

[Lastnightzombie]

Did you buy this game or ?

[PlasmicRedX]

@Lastnightzombie I've bought Quake 2 twice in my lifetime. Once when it came out, again for steam. I still have the original disc it came on. I also have the Quake 4 disc that has Q2 on it. So I have it in 3 forms.

[Lastnightzombie]

@PlasmicRedX Is it worth buying now ?

[PlasmicRedX]

@Lastnightzombie Dude, I have a video that says it's the best game in the world. What do you think? You deserve this type of answer for your incompetence.

[Lastnightzombie]

@PlasmicRedX Dude you retarded i asked it becasue it is almost 12 yrs old game

[PlasmicRedX]

@Lastnightzombie Incompetent fool.

[PlasmicRedX]

@Lastnightzombie I don't think you understand the name of this game we're playing here. I'm not a salesman. I'm not trying to sell you this game. Here, this is my little corner of the internet where I "worship" quake 2. I don't care if you want to buy it. I don't care to tell you if it's worth buying. Here, Quake 2 is the best game in the world, and that's the bottom line.

[BC3602]

in quake 2 do you play as cane like you do in quake 4

[themaynrules]

I used to play so much Action Quake 2, but for some reason I can't get it working in any mode apart from software anymore

[xXlilgraham2Xx]

I love the sound effects that they use in this and Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

[loki479]

jettan likes your video :D!

[hashbrownz1999]

wolfenstein is better than doom though. :P

[redfoxbennaton]

@hashbrownz1999 explain why?

[hashbrownz1999]

I'm a doom fan. quake is an ehh. But nice gameplay. :)

idk why i like the game that is worse. XD

[Zeelpawa2]

Play this + Quake 2 Evolved Source port and you see a HUGE difference

Dynamic Lights

High resolution Textures

and more!

[PlasmicRedX]

@Zeelpawa2 I have played on Evolved before many times as well as many others like KMQUAKE2. They are neat but I still love the old graphics the best. The reason why is they ruin the many of the weapon's projectiles, bullet impact animations and textures by changing them into something else. One time I modified KMQUAKE2's art in photoshop and made everything as close as I could to the original and it looked fantastic, but there still some things that were unfixable.
