At least one of these is very old.

And now that I look more, I think it's at least two of them. And one of them isn't even a picture.

1st and 3rd pic are old I believe. I've never seen the fourth personally, but even that may not be new.
 
The last pic looks great. Like from some sci-fi adventure from the 90's.
The other - I've already played that game when it was called Doom 3.
 
Don't be silly, guys. This is obviously not Doom 3. This FPS features space marines versus hellish technorganic monstrosities.
 
What the hell happened to Quake? Was it always so scifi? I dont remember that in first one, felt more like crypts or some sense of natural exploration. Shiny photorealistism strikes again.

Quake 2 was straight Sci Fi in never ending warehouses, factories, and mines.

Quake 3 was kinda a mix in regards tp art design, but more Sci Fi then anything.
 
The last pic looks like it could look really fucking impressive in motion.

Agreed - Doom III really came to life in motion. All these screens just look like plastic fugures to me.
 
the new computer gaming world has a preview of the game. looks like doom3 in some spots..overall the other shots make the game look pretty good.
 
I need multiplayer shots, for the love of god.

I'm really curious about how well the multiplayer will be, given that Raven's trying to remake Quake 3's MP and all. If they do a good job, this might be the greatest multiplayer FPS released. Maybe.
 
That's Doom3.

Is Quake4 supposed to have a new graphics engine? I'm forever a Carmack whore. One of my favorite programmers of all time. I would like to know what his wrecking crew at iD has in store for the Unreal team. I mean, UE3's engine shits on the Doom3 engine from a great height from what we've seen so far. I'd like to think he's still got the ability to drop jaws. PEACE.
 
as much as I was disappointed by Doom 3 I have to admit reading this month's CGW article on this got me pretty excited. at the very least the single player should be interesting

Quake 4 is on the Doom 3 engine, developed by Raven.
 
Quake 1 2 and 3 were a shitmix of ideas because they could never figure out what game they actually wanted to make. Carmack only cared about the engine behind the games and never the games themselves and Romero was too busy pumping up Id to developers and press to put enough attention on making Quake. Once he left there was no one driving the games forward to a singular idea and they kept turning out like 3 or 4 games welded together.

Masters of Doom is a good book. Give it a read.
 
To my understanding, the Doom 3 engine isn't really that customizable, concerning the way the character models look, that's why Q4 looks like D3 so much. I think it's BS, can someone confirm
 
There are some new pics in the June CGW. It looks hot. Still dark as hell, but it's substantially more detailed than Doom 3.

There is also a big twist revealed in the magazine about the storyline. If I knew how to spoiler tag, I'd reveal it.
 
Word has it that this one is a lot slower and more story oriented than Q3A. Raven says they're focusing on single player. T_T
 
I doubt this game is going to be that good. I'm sick of id getting so much attention. They're just washed up cunts. Graphics alone aren't going to win me over, especially when their fucking enemies are baby heads, giant tubes, and various oversized insects thrown in a blender.

Raven is developing Quake IV.
 
im not a huge follower of the company or the series, but wasn't Quake originally sort of meant as Id's 3D version of the Doom series all the long? Releasing a new Quake, so soon after Doom, and on the same engine seems pretty goddamn redundant.

They need a new engine. UE3 is cereal killin ID engine. Hmmmm.......cereal.
No they don't need a new engine....DOOM3 Engine is a shipping product while UE3 is still atleast a year+ from shipping.

The most exciting thing that Quake 4 will bring is a port of Q3A style MP to the DOOM3 engine.

It's Quake 4.

Is the Doom 3 engine not that scalable? Because Prey and Quake 4 look like Doom 3. I have high hopes for Quake 4 as Raven is a good developer.
 
The thing about Quake IV is that it's not going to be anything like Doom 3 or the previous Quake's. From the article I read in CGW, it sounds like it's going to be more like Halo. You're going to have a squad of teammates with you for most of the game as well as vehicles (Hovertanks and Mechs.) The story is going to be much more involved and heavily scripted.

They are designing the multiplayer to be like Quake III, which id consider to be their best multiplayer shooter.
 
I want shamblers damnit and and death knights and knights butchers with chainsaw grenade launchers!!!!!!!!
