What did the Strogg use to attack Earth in Quake Wars? Slipgates. The Quake timeline may as well could be Quake I-Quake III Arena.īuilding on this, in Quake, the humans are researching Slipgate technology. To some extent, it can be argued that every game is connected in some way or another.This means that in Quake 1, the "good guys" are Strogg! And, more specifically, Quake 1 is set centuries before 2 and 3, when the Strogg were simply a human-like race, without any experience in bionic implants yet. Alternatively, Sub-Niggurath's influence may have subtley corrupted the Strogg, leading them to take their research too far.Įver notice the military crates in Quake 1? They have the Strogg symbol on them. ![]() In time, this got out of hand, and bionic enhancements became an end onto itself, instead of a means to reach an end. Evidently, the whole experience was so shocking for the Strogg, they decided to research bionics in order to turn themselves into superior beings and repel eventual future invasions more easily. The story of the game involves Lovecraftian creatures, led by Shub-Niggurath, coming through "slipgates" (teleporters or portals) to invade this dimension. In Quake 1 you play as a Strogg: this can be inferred from the Strogg symbol on the military crates you see throughout the allied bases. Back then, the Strogg were just a race of Human Aliens who did not yet enhance their bodies with bionics, nor did they form a Hive Mind.

Notable additions to play are the ability to send shots through the teleporters and the advancement of the game physics provided by the new technology including the ability to bounce grenades and napalm fire off of jump-pads. Like the previous Quake games, the multiplayer has a client-server architecture. The network code has been altered from Doom 3, allowing for larger numbers of players on each server Doom 3 has a four-player restriction, whereas Quake 4 has a standard 16 player limit. The player movement in Quake 4 is similar to that in Quake III Arena and Quake Live, but with the additions of ramp jumping and crouch slides.
