It would pretty much seem like your work was done and you could retire. But it's not a nice universe we live in now is it? Quake's general, The Dark Reaver Legond, has returned from conquering yet another dimension. Expecting great fanfare upon arrival, Legond receives only the sad news that a lone Earth denizen has stopped Quake not once, not twice, but on three separate occasions. Outraged, Legond gathers the now infamous Dark Horde from the far reaches of the universe and plots the destruction of this mortal. Legond has a whole slew of new traps and nasties in store for you before dragging you into an unknown dimension to do battle with you face to face. This is going to be your most terrifying and difficult mission to date. Once again it's up to you to stop Quake's armies, but this time, they know you're coming and they're ready for you. Legond will stop at nothing to see your severed head spiked above Quake's throne. YOUR NEW ENVIRONMENT New Weapons in Abyss of Pandemonium Napalm Gun: These are definitely not your typical grenade launchers. Gameplay reaches new heights of strategic intensity with these scorching beauties. Launch them at your worst enemy and watch they burst into flames! Flames stick to walls, ceilings, and floors. Use them strategically to lay waste or block the attack paths of your enemies. Rocket Powered Impaler: This weapon fires rocket powered steel shafts that can gib or impale your enemy on contact. Be careful, it has quite a kickback! Prototype LG-2: This is a prototype of an advanced weapon designed specifically for destroying The Dark Horde. Electrical by nature, when angled of the cielings, walls, or floors, it ricochets out a scattered electrical force. Watch them in agony as they fry to a crisp!!. It takes a skilled warrior to master this weapon, since the electrical current can spread from one opponent to the next -even you. Armor Mounted Laser System: This powerful weapon has three different power levels, each more powerful than the next. When an upgrade is picked up, it is automatically installed, and the integrated on-board computer will let you know. The system is mounted on the shoulder pieces of the armor, and features semi-auto targeting with Level II and III upgrades installed. Key 1 = Axe Key 2 = Shotgun Key 3 = Double Barrel Key 4 = Nailgun Key 5 = Super Nailgun Key 6 = Grenade Launcher / Napalm Launcher Key 7 = Rocket Launcher / Impaler Key 8 = Lightning Gun / Prototype LG-2 Key 9 = Pulse Rifle New Powerups in Abyss of Pandemonium Field Generator: Upon activation, your utility belt will emanate an invisible field with automatic intensity levels that can shield you against many attacks, and absorb quite a bit of damage. New Creatures in Abyss of Pandemonium Grenling: These creatures travel in packs attacking like bats. They are fast and dangerous, NEVER turn your back on one, or you WILL suffer the consequences! Lightning Enforcer: These powerful versions of Enforcers will try to fry you with a blast of energy every chance they get. They don't have much range, but they pack a particularly powerful zap! Dark Knight: Evil reincarnated knights, whose only purpose is death. These creatures travel in groups, and will join together to bring forth lightning. They're fast, but with the right weapon, you MIGHT survive! Juggernauts: These humongous armor-plated robots will stop at nothing. There are 2 different kinds, each with extremely fast disruptor beam guns and advanced tactical rockets, so don't get too close or you'll be smashed down with a 4 foot steel blade!! Blud: This disgusting and vile creature is one of a kind. It hasn't been fed for a long, long time and is almost impossible to kill, you'll have to outsmart it if you want to stay alive. Not only will it suck the life out of you, but it will spit the bones of it's former victims at you to keep you at bay. Legond: She's the wickedest, meanest, and toughest babe you'll ever fight. Her only goal is to see you dead, so don't fool yourself - she's a killer. You better be good, 'cause she doesn't take prisoners! TIP: Some weapons are better vs. particular monsters than others. If a new monster seems really hard to kill, switch to another weapon and try again before it's too late. New Environmental Hazards and Effects in Abyss of Pandemonium: Exploding walls/ Fallaway floors: Floors can fall away instantly, and some walls and obstructions can be destroyed. Pinhead Traps: Ever have the flesh RIPPED off your bones by a hundred metal claws?! Flesh or steel, these traps will unleash a devastating barrage of claws. If you want to get past one, you've got to be REAL careful. Use the Pinhead Trap to your advantage by leading monsters into them, and watch the gibs fly!! MULTIPLAYER ACTION Abyss of Pandemonium fully supports multiplayer mode. There are 6 new levels designed specifically for multiplayer.
