Xonotic

Xonotic is a free and open source arena shooter based on the QuakeWorld engine. It features the weapon complexities of Unreal with the movement of Quake (closer to CPMA).

My Thoughts

Being FOSS, it is the most "ethical" Arena Shooter and is also available on effectively all platforms. Like Quake, it has a small and dedicated playerbase. 9/10.

Tips

Movement

Movement is the mainstay of Xonotic. Do learn how to rocket jump, strafejump, circlestrafe, and other movement tricks.

Performance

Xonotic is able to run on most platforms, though it requires Intel HD 3000/equivalent to run well.
