[PS4 Pro] Quake E1M1 (see description)
7**This is just a quick run through the first level on Hard difficulty. Please don’t view this as an expert play or speed run.**
While it’s in a far better state than the Doom ports when they launched, it still needs some work.
Aiming is off a bit. Fine adjustments are too sluggish and acceleration snaps when you get a few degrees outside of that ‘just past deadzone’ area. I think keyboard and mouse support isn’t quite in either. I lost my gaming mouse during a move, but I’m reading elsewhere that the game only reads buttons and keyboard inputs; no mouse look. Analog movement input also makes bunny hopping nearly impossible. Gyro aiming IS IN, but it isn’t aggressive enough.
The frame rate also chokes in the slipgate complex so this might mean shaky performance in later more complex areas on older consoles.
But I’m thrilled to have an updated version of Quake again. It’s still a blast despite my nitpicks. I’ll try out co-op later if I pick up a PS+ sub.
Update: I have confirmed that mouse look does not work in this version. The right and left mouse buttons do register and the menu cursor disappears when you use any mouse input. I think it’s only a matter of time before we get a patch with full support.
