I have to disagree. I *did* take the time to customize Quake but I still
don't like it in multiplayer. I'll take DoomII over Quake for multiplayer
any day (I *do* like Quake single player much better though).

Quake in multiplayer is just a total joke unless you have a local network or
a T1 line in your home. Yes, I'm using QuakeWorld and it helps a lot, but, I
can dial up a local buddy with DoomII and have just a nice "tight"
deathmatch game; NO lag, NO ghosting or jumping, it works great. Quake
doesn't come close.

DoomII takes much more finess. Doing the "shotgun" dance with another player
takes skill for it to pay off. Only the guys who *really* know how to use
the BFG and coordinate thier moves will get the frags with it. So far, Quake
multiplayer is just moving around and shooting. There's too much network lag
for anything else.

If you think I'm wrong, please tell me what I'm missing.
