Nexuiz game speed is way too fast to be enjoyable for many people. Not everyone is a 13 year old male with near-precog reflexes, a 5000 dpi laser mouse, and a hyper-fast dedicated gaming PC.

There really needs to be a way to set game speed before entering a match. This can't be very hard to implement. All that should be needed is a scaler for the player's maximum speed and acceleration. Anyone familiar with the code care to add this for 2.2.2?

As a reference, can we purpose to allow "Quake4" style game play? (ie. realistic human foot-soldier movement speed)

It already is variable, however, only the server admin can configure it of course (since otherwise this would allow cheating).

It is also somewhere in the menu (in gamemodes/misc), but type "slowmo 0.8" on the console for slower gameplay. But yes, it may be a good idea to provide three configurations for that and maybe also different damage scaling like old UT had.

Making different players have different speeds in a match would be a bad idea... even if it is limited by a maximum value to avoid cheating, a slow player will have quite some disadvantage if everyone else on the server is fast. All players should have the same game speed on a server.

Where do you see reslistic human movement in Quake4?

Sure, not everybody likes fast movement fps games. I've heard about people, who cannot bare QW, becouse they head become dizzy after watching it for a few minutes.

I'm 24 years old and with cheap mouse and not so fast PC after playing tremulous and going back to nexuiz I think that game is too slow

pah you grasshoppers! me 39 years old minstagib demon! who wants some?

I just think we need better background music, some of the stuff is really boring
(ex tracks 5, 6, 7, and 8)
Some are good though
(like 9 especially)

The problem with new music is the same as the problem with getting other new media - getting quality stuff under GPL I like the soundtrack as is, though I do think it could do well to be expanded upon a bit.

see my new thread under "development"

I never use Music in any FPS game... ;D

How about the option: It's fine as it is ?
Just i find the maps to small for 8 skilled players !

Well this thread kinda got off topic.. As said there is a menu setting for the game speed but you should try it for a few days, i think its easy to get used to it and at least i think fast games are more fun then slow ones. Helps your reflexes and fast thinking.
As for the music, we got a offer from someone to use some of his music..but i just read about it in my irc logs. Maybe divVerent can tell something about this..
