I guess some people just want craziness and chaos? Right now I’m the type of person who plays Dawn of War The Hunt Begins just to have tons of buildings to build, and after about 30 minutes or more of building I finally start launching nukes at my enemies. :d
 
And oya, I’m trying to convince myself that No Man’s Sky is fun to play too, but the most enjoyable part seems to be the outer space eye candy…

Did Quake 3 have a delay in respawning? What if you had a large enough map with spawn points spread far apart from each other with instantaneous respawning?
 
I don’t remember if by default it did, but I want to say no. It was definitely alterable however. But that’s how annoying this got to be. Even with instant respawning you still died so often that you effectively were out of the match.
 
There are some large (for the time) Quake 3 maps, but the problem still remained that even if you survived initially spawning, people were spamming the weapons everywhere so even entering a room could be instant death.
 
Imagine everyone has rocket launchers. And they fire at a rate of something like 50 rockets a second with a greatly sped-up speed. Now increase their blast radius by five. Now put 30 players into one map. It was just chaos, and not in a good way.
 
Like I said, the mod was fun for a few minutes, then it got really irritating. But I bet if you looked, you’d still find people playing it today.

I guess it comes down to peoples different tastes in fun. I generally enjoy watching chaos unfold before me, especially if it’s fun chaos that doesn’t crash the game. But it seems like now a days a lot of kids demand constantly adjusting fairness through constantly adjusting rules and stats and etc, it’s one of several reasons why I stopped playing mmo’s Years ago.
 
The problem with this mod was it was fun. For about five minutes. Then it became obnoxious. You basically spent more time dead than alive. Every player just spammed their weapons and you died instantly. You spawn, maybe get one shot off (if you clicked as soon as you respawned), it wasn’t even aimed, just in whatever direction you were pointing, and you died again.

I used to make a few small maps for Quake, but nothing really worth playing. I also made a weapons mod that made the weapons so OP they were practically unusable. Especially my fun little “super-slo nuclear rocket launcher” tweak. Launch that rocket and run for your life! :P
 
There was a mod for Quake 3 called Excessive Overkill or something like that. It made all of the weapons overpowered to the point of irritation. And what I mean by that is there was no strategy. You just held down the mouse button and just aim in the general direction of a room, and you’d likely kill anyone in it. It was essentially the default weapons with their weapon speed and area of effect maxed out.
 
Rocket launchers became like machine guns. Plasma guns were an endless stream of energy. Everything was maxed out as fast as the engine could take it, and the splash effect took up five or ten times as much space.
 
Matches were simply spawn, die, spawn, die, spawn, die, spawn, die.
 
It became extremely popular, but also extremely hated. You’d see matches listed as “NO EXCESSIVE!” At the time I saw it, it seemed like half the online matches used it, the other half didn’t.

Plus if someone makes offensive content. Most game mods require the end user to find a community site to locate a mod and install it on their own.  
If the mod turns out to be offensive, either the community deals with it, or its up to the end user to pick a better mod.  
If the game has software provided by the game publisher, that allows community made mods, if any of those mods are offensive in any way, ultimately the publisher and the company that developed the game is held responsible for the offensive content…

Nowadays devs don’t have enough trust in their playerbase to let them create their own content because that could take away potential revenue that can be made by DLC and microtransactions.

I remember learning how weapon mods worked in the first and second Doom games, you had to modify the games .exe file using a hack tool, if I remember correctly the mods were permanent until you reverted the mod or replaced it with a different .exe  
Total conversion mods like the Aliens TC had enough files modified in the game that it might as well be a totally new game.  
Doom was originally released in 1993 and people still play it, release new maps for it and still work on mods for it.  
One of the things that I enjoy the most of it, that newer games just never really matched on it, was having Tons of monsters and allow certain monsters to fight each other, if their shots were lined up correctly.  
That game holds a very special place in my heart.

Oya, my current goal is to figure out how the heck you make maps for Unturned, by the time I actually got one map started, they did a major overhaul to Unturned and now I can barely get the editor started.

Quake 1 and 2 had some great environments.  
I made maps for the different Doom games, Quake 1 and Quake 2 was where I stopped at.  
After Quake 2 PC games 3D engines just became way too complicated for me to keep figuring out how to draw shapes, manipulate vertexs and make maps actually look good and be playable.  
It was also around that time that I started to feel old.  
I really should try finishing some of the unfinished maps that I had going for Heroes of Might and Magic 4…

Yup, my comment was regarding someone using a new computer with a whopping 32GB of RAM and being baffled when it’s all used up.  
I’m still not exactly sure why desktop computers need 32GB of ram or more, I guess gaming with 4K HD warrants that much ram?  
I’m still enjoy games at 1080p…
