Action Quake 2: how to setup and start playing

Action Quake 2 is predecessor for a popular game "Counter Strike" from the same developer. It is fully free software now, so it is a good game to play if you prefer using mostly free software. Gameplay is something in between Counter Strike and Quake 2, I would describe it as "It is CS, but fun and it is arena shooter".

How to setup

There are two ways to play the game. Easy and semi or full proprietary one and fully free, but a bit harsh (it is actually not, but it might require a compiling quake software depending on distribution you are using).

q2pro + aq2-tng + baseq2 + @zevlg config

Download links:

aQtion using Steam

The most easiest way, but semi-proprietary since it uses Steam. You can install it in Steam, it is completely free and user friendly: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1978800/AQtion/

Also it provides its own packages, that can be run without Steam: https://github.com/actionquake/distrib (check Releases)
