Frankly, sauerbraten gameplay lacks originality. okay, so its a first person shooter. ANOTHER plain old first person shooter in addition to the 123456789 million out there that already exist. Why? I don't know. what is the point of making a game that has already been made so many times in the past? The game needs something. I just thought i'd bring up this point and hopefully someone posts a good idea below. but this game NEEDS something

You go on and think something original with a few million other games out there trying to utilize all available gaming ideas. no? you're no fun.

in any way, you can't be serious. we know sauer is not something extremely special, what you've seen in this game has been seen in other games as well. what are we gonna do. certainly we'd avoid making threads about something which is probably so painfully obvious, assuming you've got an ear set up on the games coming out every single day.

this game needs a lot. this game receives little updates every time. this game gets new players and loses older ones every week. what are we gonna do. perhaps we can make a thread and ask for ideas in a futile attempt to brew something out of it.

perhaps you can also go play another game out of those 123456789 millions of there and spare yourself the headache.

over and out.

In my opinion its not the "sauerbraten - game" itself what makes this projekt special it's the outstanding easy to use level editor in combination with free open source engine. Furthermore quality of graphics is very good even on weak systems and another plus is cross-platform.

The physics system seems to be a weak point, lacking lots of functions considerd standart in these days. Another weak point is the network code, doing most of the calculations client side makes it very quick but cheating protection is an issue.

The sauerbraten-game is more or less a Quake3 Arena style game (Quake3 - personaly i think one of the best games ever because its not focused on realism but on FUN). For me its just a good and fun to play demonstration what can be done with this engine.

=> For me it was the outstanding editor that got me hooked.
