For anyone interested in playing again, tastyspleen.net has put together a freely distributable Quake II installation package: q2s.tastyspleen.net You can play through the original single player demo, or use the included server browser to play online. Visit q2servers.com (which is maintained by Team Liquid's R1CH) to get an instant look at currently available servers to play on. Here's a video of some online gameplay: | ||

I've only played QL I've haven't personally seen R1CH play, but he's been very involved in the Quake 2 community and has made several positive contributions from the various projects he's worked on in the past (which we still benefit from to this day). | ||

The server browser will show you servers from all over the world, so you'll need to make note of the ping / RTT time it lists when choosing one to connect to. For best results you'd want to find a server where you have 100ms or less. | ||

There were other players with better aim than him of course, but Thresh was a dominate player mainly due to his instinct and tactics. You also have to take into account that this is one of the only FFA games that he happened to record when he played Q2, and considering that this was 1999, he was starting to put professional gaming behind him and was focusing most of his time on his new company. | ||
