QPong Beta
by Maarten Goldstein, Dec 10, 2000 4:00pm PSTNew Quake3 mod to get your hands on. Team Reaction released the first beta of QPong Arena. The download is a mere 6mb and includes "5 balls, 4 maps, 1 announcer, and unlimited carnage". Just wtf is Q3Pong all about?
Between two and four teams face off in a giant arena, reminiscient of a Pinball table. Each team has a goal. For each team playing, a gigantic (bigger than your player) steel ball is dropped into the middle. Each team tries to roll the ball into the other team's goal. However, the ball is extremely massive. You can only move it using your weapons (super shotgun or railgun recommended). You can also push the ball, but it will only roll slowly. Should you happen to lie in the path of a quickly-moving ball, you can kiss your ass goodbye. Yes that's right, balls will crush other players who are not quick enough to get out of the way. In fact, one of the main ways to kill people in QPong is by blasting a ball into them (resulting in instant gibbage).

The balls seem to light and have too much bounce to them. They should be a bit heavier and not be as bouncy. Maybe they need a little more gravity applied to them.
That one box map that's like a soccer field, the sky is too dark and it makes the balls to hard to see. Also the goals are a bit too small and the sky box is too tall.
That spike map is too dark and that dark ball is really hard to see on that map.
The announcer is really annoying.
I don't like the small "soccer" ball either. The earth ball is good. That boxy ball doesn't fit in really. That "slime ball" is cool.

1. Most of the guns should be taken out it just turns into regular deathmatch.
2. The balls and scoring wasnt the focus of the game, see 1.
3. And I thought Mai Shanranu's boobies bounced too much
I guess id taking note means stealing it...so nevermind.
