This mod asks 'what if Quake 2 was an RTS?'

and 4 would make a strong basis for an RTS. Whereas the original game's setting is a hazy mix of fantasy and futurism that emerged from its troubled development, the sequel had a much more coherent identity. Its interstellar war between human soldiers and Strogg cyborgs felt incredibly fleshed out for a shooter at the time, and while it may seem staid after years of shooters about space marines, I've always had a soft spot for it.

The mod's still in active development, but it already has a fair amount of playable content. Alongside the two campaigns of the original version of the mod, this second version adds five additional custom maps , and introduces new units like a marine hovertank. The mod also features a bunch of unique mechanics, like Strogg orbital drops and jet packs for the Marines.

In the responses to the update, Petersen details potential new features for Sudden Quake going forward, including"creating new Strogg types that have never been seen" and"some new settings like the Stroggos moons and a partially-stroggified planet". I mostly mention this so I can write the word"Stroggified", but I also like the idea of expanding the Quake universe beyond Stroggos, something the mainline games didn't do.
