New York, New York (so good they named it twice…)
In 2013 a series of Quake servers were put up in the New York area to cater for East Coast USA, cross Atlantic Matches and providing something a little different from the norm. The server runs multiple ports on newyork.servequake.com and multiple Quake mods to try and cater for all tastes and preferences.
Server Admins: Polarite, =peg=, and Mr,Burns.
Server Owner: The mighty Polarite (all hail)
Port 26000: Free for All New York (FFANY)
For all intents and purposes this is a USA version of the european Bigfoot server. It has multiple custom maps and has been designed to feel very much like a CRMOD deathmatch server. To allow players to customise the server to their liking many options are votable. This server provides a great venue for matches between the european and USA players and is the USA HQ for the FFA tournements.
Requirements: If you don’t already have them, and don’t have a Quake engine that autodownloads the maps for you we recommend you avail yourself of the Euroquake Map pack from Quakeone.com
Command line: connect newyork.servequake.com:26000
Command line 2: connect ffany.quakeone.com:26000
Port 26001: RQuake Coop
Think you can take on those easy old Quake Monsters? Think again, this Coop mod written by Rocket guy and Lardarse allows you and your Quake buddies to go to war on the Quake Monsters, but these guys are quicker, stronger and meaner than in normal quake. Based on RuneQuake you can vote on additional weapons (for example vote-hook or vote-alt-weapons) if you wish but with the custom map sets it;s a challenge for newbies and pro’s alike. Simple download the map pack, connect to the server and battle to your hearts content
Requirements: We have prepared a downloadable RQuake Map pack and are just looking for suitable repository. In the mean time look for the individual maps on Quaddicted or bigfoot.quake1.net. Our good friends over on QuakeOne,com have an installer which you should be able to download here. If all else fails as a starting point you could avail yourself of the Euroquake Map pack from Quakeone.com
Command line: connect newyork.servequake.com:26001
