Mod Review

Reviewer : Ged Byrne founder and webmaster of Quake3stuff.com

Mod : Alive

As you have probably noticed, there are no screenshots in this review. The reason for this is quite simply that there are no visible features in this mod.

The aim of the game here is to kill your opponents and collect the health that they drop when they die. 'Ahh bugger it, I'll leave that health there for now' you may think... but that's not such a good idea. Just to make things a little more frantic your health is constantly reducing until you reach 10, so picking every health item is essential.

When you kill the person who is leading the game a megahealth is dropped. This is a nice twist that can mean one of a couple of things are going to change from a normal deathmatch game. People who normally avoid the leader and run away will find themselves ganging up on the leader in the hope that they can jump in and grab the mega health or people will avoid the leader like the plague and will concentrate on trying to kill the weakest. A great enhancement for this mod would be a health bar indicator as seen in assimilation.

I played this mod for some time and quite liked it despite it being a small twist to the standard game. It makes for a very small download and should therefore be quite high up your priority list for downloading.
