About OpenArena

Multiplayer 3D shooter, based on Quake 3 Arena FPS.
Supports online matches and offline play with bots. Deathmatch, Capture the Flag and 10 other game modes are available.

Gamepad is required for Android TV.

Five touchscreen control modes available:
shoot button mode is similar to other mobile 3D shooters.
tap to shoot mode moves fire button under your finger, so you never miss it.
floating crosshair mode allows for faster aiming - drag crosshair across the screen to shoot, touch screen borders to look around.
shoot under finger mode shoots where you touch, but does not move crosshair from the center of the screen.
aim under finger mode is similar, but moves fire button under your finger instead of shooting immediately.

Swipe the screen to quickly rotate 180 degrees.
Double-tap joystick to jump.
Touch weapon icons at the top to select a weapon.
You can configure buttons layout by clicking Change device config button when the game starts, then selecting On-screen keyboard and Customize layout.
You can switch to first-person view in settings.
Voice chat is supported - switch Voice chat option to Shake and talk, and shake phone during game to send your voice to other players. Some servers may disallow voice chat.
You can enter console commands using button at upper-left, start command with / symbol.

Gyroscope aiming is supported (not all devices have gyroscope).
Gamepads with two analog sticks are supported (PS3, Xbox gamepads, SHIELD).
Google Cardboard VR is supported, you will need a gamepad to use it.
Mouse will not be supported, because it's technically impossible on non-rooted Android, and because it gives an unfair advantage over other players.

Best fps on android and cross platform multiplayer with PCs. Supports gamepads. Requires a descent tablet for a good experience. Frame rate is a bit slow on Amazon Fire Kindles, even the newest ones as of this writing, but playable and silky smooth on nVidia K1 tablets. Graphics is about the same as on PCs. Characters could use a graphics upgrade. Effects could be better. But a great game.

,I remember playing this game about 3_4 years backon my galaxy tap 2, and I just installed it again on my Lenovo 2, but when I try to go into any kind of match it just crashes, can you please fix it?

It's great on Android TV! It's like I get to play Quake 3 all over again :D There are some minor issues using a controller - the UI doesn't always like it and menu selection isn't always intuitive (again, with a controller) but the end result is well worth it! Now I just need to see if I can fiddle with some of the settings...

Move should be on the left and camera view on the right otherwise right handed people, like me, can't play. That's a majority of the population by the way.

Game is very fun, doesnt feel as fast as the original quake 3 but it's still a worthy quake port. The controls arent that good, but good thing theres full controller support.

I'd give five stars if keyboard and mouse supported (game pad is... ) under single player mode. Also needs to let user map button locations and a quick center view button or by triple tap.

But can you add a app for mods for open arena but I love that you added everything from the original quake 3 arena

I open the app on note 3 and it comes up with the logo then shuts off

by R####:

Very difficult to control with just a touch screen/gyro. But put this baby in VR and get a decent ish method of controlling actions and you're in for a unique and entertaining VR FPS experience. You can also adjust the game speed if you get motion sick, but I never had to do much with that since I have an iron stomach.

Great app and plays really well on the Nexus 6P. I can't get used to not having the axis reversed when using the touchscreen so keep dying.
