Quake II is still actively played online and maintained by its community; it was the most popular online game for all of 1998.

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:

Is R1CH any good? I've only played QL

And let's hope that she does, because when they land in Q2 they actually hurt

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).

Does the server list just list vanilla servers or also mod ones? Used to play it when it was released and would be fun to play a few of the mods that came along.

It lists all servers that report to q2servers.com, and there are options to sort by mod type.

I used to play this so much, watching that video brings back memories. Haven't played it since I started playing UT2004 though, maybe should revisit it.

Was personally surprised how active UT2004 is still tbh.

How do I remove the 1 second delay between me clicking and actually firing?

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.

After watching that video it seems like thresh's rail aim isn't that great. I'm kind used to the 50-60% rail hits of q3.

Quake 2 <3, good memories of this game, especially the awesome music soundtrack and fun gameplay. However I had no idea it was played online.

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.
