The potential playerbase is also fragmented between various clones.&lt;p&gt;I gave Xonotic a go a few minutes ago. The game is nice but right now I can see 6 only servers populated. That&amp;#x27;s not a lot to be honest.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sigg3</author><text>If you like Quake-likes, let me recommend Xonotic. It&amp;#x27;s a free and open source game based on a heavily modified Darkplaces engine.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s a friendly community, with a wide age distribution (lots of old quakers like myself).

Also contributed some music to it!&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;ve always been amazed in particular by how polished it is for an open source game. Don&amp;#x27;t think I&amp;#x27;ve ever heard anyone that tried it say they didn&amp;#x27;t enjoy it either, though generally folks don&amp;#x27;t stick around, save for a couple.&lt;p&gt;Most of the current playerbase is situated in Europe though I think, so you gotta play at times that make sense for those time-zones if you wanna see players (evenings usually pretty active).</text><parent_chain><item><author>sigg3</author><text>If you like Quake-likes, let me recommend Xonotic.
