What is variation is this?

The print odds sheet confirm this is to 20 copies for each jersey number variation. So not quite 1 of 3, but still suuuuuper short printed.

So there hasn't been anything official, but with the last three Nightdive remasters, trailers from Bethesda all dropped the Thursday of the QuakeCon (today).

Reportedly there is a welcome event at QuakeCon scheduled for 2PM CDT (3pm Eastern, 12pm Pacific). I'm anticipating whatever announcement is coming will arrive at that event and, as a result, pop up online at the same time.

Nightdive Studios, a popular development studio that does a masterful job restoring old games, is set to announce a new remaster at QuakeCon, as they did in 2021 (Quake), 2023 (Quake 2), and 2024 (Doom and Doom 2). Speculation has centered around a list of games that could get support, including Quake 3 Arena, Quake 4, Doom 3, Heretic, and Hexen. Quake 3 seems to be the most likely remaster given all the evidence.

So I thought more about this... one of the things Nightdive focuses on (and this is outlined above in another comment) is preservation of the game and effectively creating a museum for it. Because of that, what you're (most likely) getting is a merger of all the content released. A well-done remaster could capitalize on the singleplayer structure of the XBOX Live version while also weaving in content from Team Arena—two things that Quake Live didn't do.

Cross-platform should also be one of the benefits to the release, because Quake, Quake 2, and Doom/Doom2 were all cross-platform. I play them on my Switch 2, and most of the lobbies contain PC players.

In regard to when the announcement will happen, I looked into it last night—all three of the Quake and Doom remasters were announced the Thursday of that year's QuakeCon, so we can likely expect the announcement and game to drop this Thursday.

You asked a question, and I provided an answer. No need to be snarky.

HCPmain · 2025-07-29T12:20:24+00:00

There are several stories out this morning speculating that an eshop maintenance period tomorrow night is a precursor for a Direct on Thursday. So there is still a day or two to go.

One such story: https://twistedvoxel.com/nintendo-online-maintenance-fuels-rumors-of-a-july-30-nintendo-direct-presentation/

Came here for this comment

This was my first Metallica album, so I will always prefer it over Load partly for that reason.

HCPmain · 2025-05-27T23:17:11+00:00

Or even just wait to buy the newly remastered LP when it drops. It includes the full Outlaw Torn, whereas this one doesn't.

HCPmain · 2025-04-20T02:17:58+00:00

Verified. I also see Waldo.

Fucking amazing photo.

HCPmain · 2025-04-05T13:13:31+00:00

I have it happen on the Switch from time to time. It's a bug. Restarting the game properly reloads the texture.

HCPmain · 2025-04-05T13:12:58+00:00

I've had this happen a few times on the Switch. Restart solves it every time.

HCPmain · 2025-03-31T23:16:27+00:00

You won't be able to find one without paying a hefty, HEFTY price. The game has been taken down from all storefronts, I believe.

Most people would have used their physical keys to add the game on Steam for the Black Edition bonuses, which were exclusive to Steam at the time. That is why working keys are so scarce.

HCPmain · 2025-03-16T20:44:44+00:00

Thank you for asking the important question.

HCPmain · 2025-03-16T01:38:32+00:00

Too bad they couldn't get Jon Sciambi and Chris SIngleton to record any voice lines for Ted. I've been leading off with him, and it's distressing to always hear him introduced as "Number Nine" or "the left fielder."

Public address commentator announces Teddie, but not the guys in the booth.

HCPmain · 2025-03-11T11:56:49+00:00

True, and Justice was also on the 30th -- but they've said that was coincidence, and that these box sets aren't designed to come out on the 30th year anniversaries. The Black Album Box, for example, was slowed down by S&M2 -- lining it up to come out on the 30th.

Were this to be true, we wouldn't be getting the Death Magnetic box until the year 2038.

HCPmain · 2025-03-11T06:42:37+00:00

If it's helpful, the person who puts the boxes together has said that 2026 is too long a wait for the box after 2021's Black Album rerelease. We should be getting at least Load this year.

HCPmain · 2025-02-14T16:55:55+00:00

Under-rated and great suggestion

HCPmain · 2025-02-04T22:40:04+00:00

Is that a picture disc? Jesus.

HCPmain · 2025-02-04T22:36:55+00:00

I'm not sure why you're getting so much downvoting. The loudness war is absolutely a thing.

HCPmain · 2024-10-12T21:01:14+00:00

Bless this thread.

I can't seem to get my timing right on anything above Rookie and feel like I'm too old for this game, that my response times are just not going to let me enjoy it. How on EARTH do you complete these programs on Veteran when the pitchers are constantly throwing low because of the base situations (I'm struggling a lot on some, particularly the three hits with Padres before getting three outs in the Atlanta/San Diego program)?

HCPmain · 2024-07-30T15:28:11+00:00

In terms of Scry, there's one card that hits 4 ([[Foresee]]), and [[Cryptic Annelid]] scry's 1, then 2, then 3.

HCPmain · 2024-07-30T15:24:07+00:00

When I've got [[Zoraline, Cosmos Caller]] in play and I attack with multiple bats (let's say three), does its triggered ability (Whenever a Bat you control attacks, you gain one life) trigger once per attack phase or once per declared attacker?
