Quake IV Tidbits Revealed 27
Thanks to GameSpy for their interview with Rick Johnson of Raven Software, the lead programmer on Quake IV. Although the game isn't being shown at QuakeCon this year (Todd Hollenshead of id says "Quake 4 and QuakeCon 2K4 sound pretty nice together"), more details are revealed: "Quake IV is primarily a single-player focused game which will be continued on a near storyline from Quake II. That's not to say that we won't have multiplayer, but our primary focus is currently the single-player experience." It's also confirmed that the game is using the Doom 3 engine, and elsewhere at the show, "Tim Willits of id mentioned that work is being done on vehicles for the upcoming Quake IV."
