@Sky Render:

They could have used GLQuake instead. That looks to me like the vanilla version of Quake.

i love homebrew!

I guess we'll find out soon enough if Conduit allows you to crank up the sensitivity that high.

It would be a shame if some artificial limitation prevented you from doing it, wouldn't it?

@NJ5: Umm... turn speed has nothing to do with memory... it's just a number that they change o.O

For example, if turn speed is currently set to 5, and you wanna double the speed, you set the value to 10.

Now, if you were talking about how much motion blur that would incur, or something along those lines, I could kinda see where you were comng from.

@thekitchensink: That's what I mean by "artificial limitation". Implemented by the developers in this case.

If it was a problem with the hardware, it wouldn't be an artificial limitation.

Not in the sense we think of it nowadays, no. It does have the full engine and feature set, but it has a different set of map data, based on the game's earliest levels plus a few minor details (the shareware warnings and such). You can upgrade to the full version by replacing the map pack.

This is different from the modern sense of unlocking, where the game actually has everything -map data and all- but hides some of it behind software switches. The shareware version of Quake actually lacks the data from the full game, even though the code is all in place.

That's what I expect Conduit to do. Anything less would be an insult. Granted, I am not referring to graphics, just controls.

looks like fun.. ive played quake on almost every platform that ppl have bothered with all the way from pc's mac's, consoles, HP PDA's.. next stop.. wii :)

I have just installed this and played it. It really is much easier to aim at that speed than I thought it would be :)

The running feels too fast for some reason, perhaps I'm used to slower games on my TV?
