Requiem Special Edition and QuakeWorld Edition 1.04 is out NOW!!!


http://www.planetquake.com/requiem



Alot of new weapons and revised Quake weapons, which are now alot more


powerful and more importantly, fun AND evenly balanced... eg. BFG,


FlameThrower, FreezeGun, GuidedMissile, PhaserRifle, Chaingun, and lots


more :)



New BOT-AI and the bots now appear on the scoreboard!! These bots have 6


skill settings to make it as simple as a newbie, or tuffer than the best


reaper...



New DeathMatch settings like SuddenDeath, where everyone has QUAD and all


kills are GIBs, or AxeWarefare where only AXE weapons are useable, and


other items add to your axe power.. and MUCH more...



Single-Player has never been the same with the newly coded monsters that


now run and strafe like a player. They're faster, tougher and a whole lot


meaner. There's even a few NEW monsters too!!!



Plus a whole lot of added extras like Jetpacks, Runes, Feign Death,


Sliding, LightsOut mode, ServerSwitching, and LOTS more, all in an easy to


configure new SERVER.CFG file...



This is also a Server-Side patch, so clients connecting to any Requiem


Server dont need to download ANYTHING!!! (for all you quake server ops)



Download it NOW at http://www.planetquake.com/requiem
