File:Quake1.gif DM3: The Abandoned Base Game Episode Designer Level Editor Soundtrack Level Theme Previous Map Next Map [Source] The Abandoned Base is the third Deathmatch level of Quake and the only one designed by John Romero. Its name comes from it being the only level of the idBase Level Theme that doesn't have Enemies due to it being a Deathmatch level. The level is considerably large and has every Weapon in the game, plus nearly all the Powerups. This level does not have a Rune or Key due to being a Deathmatch level, but also is lacking a Biosuit or Green Armor. This level is one of the most popular Deathmatch maps packaged in the game. Due to the large size and balanced Weapons or Powerups, this level is considered by the majority of the Multiplayer community
