I recommend you to take a look at Steam community guides, there is a good one that tells you what commands to change. You have to edit config files for textures. That's because engine doesn't recognise mordern hardware for what it is and thinks you have very little memory and refuses to put correct settings in. You will notice that textures are low quality even on Ultra Setting. And there also was X360 port, that had Quake 2, some achievements and a bad optimisation. There also was Collector Edition which came with Quake 2.

And uses Doom 3 engine, so beware of sharp dynamic shadows. It was developed by Raven Software in 2005. Quake 4 is proud exclusion, being a direct sequel to Quake 2, where space marines battle against cyborgs made of steel and human flesh on their planet. A franchise where no previous games were connected to each other, think of Final Fantasy. Quake 4 is yet another linear old-school'ish FPS in a Quake franchise.
