I swear I've just been playing Doom 3 for the last half an hour.

It's basically Doom 3 with different enemies.

I can see this making a very good BF2 sytle game when they release Quake Wars. The Hover tank is pretty good but it turns on it's own to which ever direction you point the turret which makes it a bit odd after 20 odd hours in a bf2 tank.

Still good fun though and last for quite a while so far and it gives you a nice varitie(sp?) of enemies to fight with it.

The main machine gun feels like a good meaty version of the spec-op rifle in BF2 - which roxor.

Wow. I certainly can't fault the design work. It's excellent.

My FPS seem to change greatly in quake 4 sometimes pretty high and others quite low, but i haven't noticed any lagging yet which is nice. This is set to max settings 1024x768.

Just played a bit of quake 4 and i have to say i'm loving it.

The gameplay is fast paced and the weapons (i've only experienced the pistol, machine gun and shotgun so far) feel great, there is plenty of recoil and they don't sound bass-ie like a lot of games they sound raw and naughty.

The squad i'm running around with at the moment are pretty good and react quickly to enemies and use cover well. some pretty good fire fights so far.

This is completely different gameplay and style to Doom 3.
