They are properly maintained, that's all that separates them. I think they are both quake code and the gamesplay is very similar to their progenitors.

 No.17

On my Linux machine is goofs up the display settings and only uses my shitty DVI monitor's settings. Kinda lame, but dual monitors have been finicky on here so it's probably my setup.

Really fun though.

Xonotic has a more consistent art style. Warsow is a mishmash of different assets made by random people. Some of the newer ones don't look that bad, though.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/chaosesqueanthology/

standalone modification of Xonotic which includes extended weapons, maps, vehicles, buildable buildings, mounted weapons, spell casting, monsters, player characters, textures, and game modes.

It has over 100 maps. Some are futuristic, some are ancient, and some are medieval. A few evoke platform games such as sonic, others follow a style more akin to diablo. Some are static maps, others are randomly connected.

There is something to fit your mood. There are mutators that can add mounted weapons in any map, buildings, monsters, foliage, hazards, and even balloons and bumpers. You can fight with futuristic weapons, medieval weapons, and /or hand to hand combat (over 70 weapons). There are also many vehicles (and a mutator to spawn them in maps that do not have them, as is tradition (as you can see)).

You can also set each team to start with different specific weapons if you want to test a theory that you could defeat a well equipped military force with your bolt action rifle or crossbow. Same with vehicles and mounted weapons spawning (you can set which spawn near which team in CTF etc). You can drink wine, potions, learn magic, read scrolls, so on and so forth.

The goal, and much of this has been reached, is to not limit the player.


 No.845

The guns all look retarded and I can't tell what the game is trying to do.

It feels like a strange mishmash of Quake and UT
