when I was a kid, I saw my brother stuck on a third phase of makron, he couldn't kill a brain because it was shielded. I gave it a brief look and saw that the shield is powered by a beam above.

my dumbass was mindessly fighting the horde of strogs on the last boss fight for a hour till I realized that i could break the shield from the beam above
Makes me happy to see Quake 4 has some genuine fans. Most people who make videos about this game despise it for reasons they're never able to really explain other than "it's not exactly like Quakes one two and three so it sucks"
Yeah, exactly!!! I love this game so so so much, it's so sad it bombed. It's Raven Software's best work, but people just didn't like it for some damn reason. it has so much content; Many weapons, many different enemies, multiple boss fights, vehicles, a very compelling story, really cool maps and visuals. The only real complaints I have with this game are; The maps are a bit too linear (minor issue) and that you walk too slow as a human. Otherwise, this game is damn near perfect, for what I want in an FPS game. They had planned an expansion too, which makes it even worse it bombed.
@@kjullthedemonpeople complained about enemies being bullet sponges and the game being slow. Both fair claims but I didn't mind either of them. The only level that goes too far imo is the second to last one near the ending, there's a certain room that just spawns waves of the tankiest enemies in the game, really annoying.

Stroggs like to use humans and other creatures they find in the galaxy as batteries, food, parts, torture and research..including pain receptors in entire body for better understanding of nervous response and overall system.
An expansion was planned, called "Quake 4: Awakening" but it was canceled, because of the bad reception this game got, from elitist quake fans that were whiny you didn't move as fast as in Quake 2.
@@kjullthedemonthose elitists bastards costed us the ending of this story and more games... How terrible. I yearn for more of these kind of games with no other agenda behind than to have fun gaming. The good old times.
When I was like 6 watching my brother play this game, it scared me quite a bit. Then I started playing it for myself when I was around 9 and it was scary. The makron scared me with his laugh. The giant malformed human like creature scared me with how quick he can hit you and the giant monster with jet pack scared because how big he is and the fact that he can be right above you with his jet pack 😥
Best part is use GOD AND GIVE ALL, exit your war machine(Tank, Exoskeleton etc) then fight with these bosses or sub bosses with all the weapons you have....
Minute 17 the giant boss me and my mate was running out of ammo pistol only from half life ,.. (not the difficulty ) was awesome , ty for share , greets
AFAIK Bitterman is still on the surface of Stroggos. At least the final cutscene of Quake 2 shows his escape-pod returning to Stroggos, and his arm reachin' out.
If I had a nickel for every game where the final boss shows up early and kills me only for me to wake up as a cyborg and kill him later I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.
Actually, id Tech 4 Engine has horrible latency, at least in my personal experience, and vsync amplifies it tenfold hence your best bet is either a VRR monitor or endure screen tearing as Fast/Enhanced sync doesn't work with OpenGL/Vulkan titles.
@@HacknSlashMB From what I experienced until now, it was the complete strogg transformation (you see the first few seconds, then the screen goes black while there are some screams and noises for a few further seconds, then you faint and directly wake up the moment your team rescues you). Then it was the death of the fat blob thing that originally was feeded to death until its stomach explodes. In the German version, there is also a black screen and after its death, its stomach is still intact. Last but probably not least, the mutilated corpses and blood everywhere in the med lab level overall have simply disappeared in the German version. Same happened to the hooks that transport the corpses by the back/neck. This is about what I could pick up from a English version cutscene supercut and my gaming experience (75% progress) until now.
Is it just me or is this game almost a mirror of doom 3? The boss where the blue glowing lights are is like sarge the tank boss in D3 and another looks almost identical to the Incubus.
Played this back in 2004 if I'm not wrong and it was a break from playing doom 3 cause doom 3 was too scary and played this but it was almost just as scary. FYI I was only 9.
Processing Creature had one of the pillars that don't work if you are some distance behind it, his hook just flippin goes through, and the Network Guardian has his stupid horseshit homing missile attack when he's below 25% of it's health and he's on the floor, occasionally can be stopped if he's stuck on an animation loop or something. That's the two bosses I have a problem with, and playing on General difficulty (already beat it), it's a pain.

Its unfortunate that quake 4 was hated for being different, it did not deserve it's receptioni mean the game isn't even bad people hated it just because it was different, this is literally the best sequel to quake 2, if only quake 3 was renamed to something like arenas of quake or something like that than quake 4 would be considered as a direct sequel to quake 2

absolutely - both human and strogg version

The game is exciting, but some episode also difficult.
It reminds me of Doom 3

I forgot to speak when I was a kid
if this exact game,had 2022 grafics,it would rock homestly,i remember i finihsed it around 2008 or so
