Sauerbraten is a classic and fast old-school FPS game with very good graphics (only 4 or so people develop it!) which is what you need if you want to do a quick play and get fragging fast. (Almost all resolutions are supported)
The game is installable and loads within 2 seconds (for my machine) and exits even faster, so those who want to play unnoticed, they can easily play without being spotted.

The game can be really detailed since it includes a map editor where you can create and modify any map possible, and add details to the last hair. Its also totally customizable game, which by that means that you can change the sounds, weapons, models, fonts, add scripts and much more! Plus there are many people who contribute to it by making mods, maps and scripts for everyone to play with. More info can be found here: Sauerbraten Homepage

Please download it and come ingame to get fragging! my ingame name is RaZgRiZ

Already have that game, not very good at it though.

The map editing is impossible, need to be skilled to do that...

I was gonna say "3D Soldat", but holy hell, that's a LOT faster. I might get that, my speed fragging skills have gone to shit recently.

Sauerbraten looks like a severely downgraded version of Unreal Tournament...the weapons and upgrades look almost exactly the same to Unreal Tournament weapons and upgrades

If you want an actual fast game then get Unreal Tournament 3 or Unreal Tournament 2004 (or even unreal tournament 2003). Unfortunately there aren't any good fast videos to provide for unreal tournament but there are demos you can download.

But then again, Saurbraten is free... That is a big pro...

Although multi-player is a bit annoying, I can never stay alive... *Sigh*

To all
yea it is true that you need to be skilled to play that game, it isn't like counter strike or unreal. Moving is fast and your aim has to be very agile and precise, especially in instagib maps where you spawn with full rifle ammo and 1 HP. So in order to play you need to do tricky jumps and run quickly to avoid getting shot.

But Unreal map editing is impossible compared to Sauerbraten's :P
Its actually easy though if you get to learn how to do stuff with it, that also why there are tutorials and players online willing to spend some time and help you out with your questions or maps. Plus Unreal can't really be modded... ITS A FULL GAME and freaking complicate for modders :P

Not to mention that it is A LOT heavier than Sauerbraten, and you REALLY need to buy it in order to play online, although i have a copy of it and thousands of serials to play the game uncracked, it won't allow me to connect even in LAN. And its really annoying to play maps with players 2 vs 6 in warfare campaign (GOD WTF)

and as i've said, sauerbraten is fast on loading so if you want to play for 5 mins while no one is watching then sauerbraten is your best choice
at least i manage to break the boredom of studying for the exams...

(and if anyone wants to play UT3, I have the game uploaded to rapidshare and reado to play, just pm me if you want and i'll sent the links)

Like alot of games only the official maps get played alot anyway so modding maps doesnt count for much in my opinion, though I hope they develop a map modding system for FPS like they did with the ModNation racer =P

Though I would say that UT3 actually does require skill anyway, also that instagib thing sounds more like anything can kill you rather than the rifles actually killing you instantly

But UT3 is quite cheap now if you get it over steam which would also mean you could always get a copy downloaded then play, though patching could take hours I admit, but also they are bound to release another unreal in my opinion at some point, but I would call it a quality series in my opinion that focuses on online gaming, but doesnt slouch with some quick offline

It was a flop
But we had fun didnt we?
Yes thats the point, we had fun
I hopeI am the ex Ark Angel agent 009 BEWARE, now back in business =D

what could possibly kill you other than the rifle? Apart from the Death clip and the Lava what else? falling from heights doesn't hurt you

Played a bit, it was fun. It was instagib ctf.

At one point I ran into their base, killed a guy, ran around, killed the guy with our flag, returned it, then killed another guy and hopped away.

'twas fun.

I went and played Sauerbraten. The first game I played was insta CTF. Usually, I don't like CTf. But HOLY FUCK, this is epic. Literally, you're on the edge of your seat. I expect a lot of non-dedicated FPS gamers would find this very hard. Still, try it.

High mouse sensitivity required. Patience required. Caffeine possibly required.

__________________

agreed, this game requires strong nerves, high tension, extreme precision and movement, and to know well your environment. Its very intense gameplay and around after 2 hours of doing this your eyes pain and you start to cry... then you have to quit :P
and we can always make a server of our own to play

High mouse sensitivity required. AGREED
Patience required. HARD you will almost always swear at the top fraggers
Caffeine possibly required DISAGREED it won't stop the eye watering effect :P

__________________

My first time playing and I appeared to be the best on the server. Seriously. Day of Defeat: Source gets you well into the "You have one shot to kill them before they kill you" mood. My aiming is better than I thought, mainly cause I can predict where they go. I aim better at range, too =p

__________________

80% guaranteed that you'll hate every map which is small and narrow :P
you can't shoot instagib or ffa or efficiency in narrow maps where you require lots of space to dodge attacks. On the other hand you can't shoot in maps that are too open since you can be attacked form everywhere and the mediocre cover won't help much...

and i discovered that once you get used into playing Sauerbraten, GUARANTEED that you'll have forgotten how to play CSS or any other steam game and you'll find everyone moving too slowly lol

__________________

Yeah, instactf is still my favorite due to it's sheer awesomeness. I usually fail for a little at the start, then go on a killing spree, get first place for a few minutes, then slowly trickle down the leaderboard until I'm around the top quarter. Not sure why. I think it's a psychology thing.

The only other online fps that I really play a lot is hl2dm. Not sure why, it's not much visually or content-wise, but you find a fun server (Skul`Shock all the way >:3) and just go kick ass and get your ass kicked with extreeeme magnum and crossbow battles. But now I think I'll be playing a lot more Sauerbraten and a lot less hl2dm.

I played it last night. I found it epic.

In 3 hours, I won a ctf, played with razgriz in instagib, and learned how to use the map editor, and made a moderate map with 3 others.

There is this place call Quadropolis were people post their own made map, mods or scripts, and its a perfect place to discover the possibilities of Cube 2 engine. at least with some kick ass visual effects and scripts i was able to make my game more than i wanted it to be :P

also there is the Cube Forum where people talk about various things related to cube. A good place to find help as well, although people won't usually reply on the forum for map help etc, they will more likely reply ingame in a coopedit server about such.

in my opinion the insta ctf is the best mode for me. Crab your flag to protect it, and touch the enemies to score
