Hey, there's a light coming around : that corner.." : (BEEP! BEEEEEEP!) : "Oh shit." Now them's some good ideas. I, too, however, have trouble with all this fantasy junk. I want weapons--modern, futuristic, all types! A couple swords and stuff, I don't mind. Hell, I can even see alternate uses for swords: slicing through objects, creating new doors, etc. But, if anybody out there at Id is listening, for Gawd's sake, don't limit Quake to a fantasy/RPG world!
