QC trickjump vids are now a thing
>>180066328
Nyx is too damn mobile, also
>name video jumping around
>theme of video not "Jump Around" by House of Pain
what did they mean by this?
>mfw my rail shoots straight through Scalebearer twice
>>180066763
>too mobile
no such thing
>>180066972
ehhh Nyx is pretty slippery, if you consider that she has an escape in the form of her ability, plus she is I think the fastest champ in the game. She could use a wee bit of tuning imo
>>180067708
nyx is like 1/10th as fast as anarki and most characters can exceed her top speed with their own movement maneuvers
>>180067708
i want to tune nyx's slippery ass on my face
>>180068183
Who wouldn't?
>mfw my 3/25 teammate picks up the Mega/RA before I can
>>180069552
>same player walks past green armors and health bubbles when he's not full
How do we fix the duel mode?
>>180069583
>proceeds to charge stacked enemies with basic MG
>>180069828
Need to fix Netcode first, then think about major changes to the game overall.
Goodnight /arena/ last bump
>>180069828
by not playing dogshit qc
>>180069552
>teammate who already has rail/lightning nicks the rocket launcher and mega when you just spawned
ONE OR THE OTHER YOU BITCH

I played against a CPMA-dad in reflex yesterday for a couple of hours
he kept voting for old as fuck quake maps that play like ass in reflex while constantly saying "this is so much worse than CPMA"
that's when I realized that the original reflex maps are actually pretty damn good and that not a single one of the 1:1 quake -> reflex conversions are worth a shit, aside of maybe use & abuse.
dads are the problem.
>>180070582
weapons only take 5 secs to spawn in qc to be fair
>>180070596
reflex maps are great but the quake maps are great too
>>180071195
I still don't understand why people unironically want to duel on campgrounds.
>>180071751
what's wrong with it?
>>180071854
way too big, you can avoid each other for 10 minutes.
haven't played qc since 2nd beta. how's the game? i heard they added a new character and that the beta won't be closing on weekdays like before
>>180072371
It's a pretty good game ravaged by bugs and netcode issues.
>>180073689
has the netcode at least been improved a bit? the last time i played, the laggiest player was the best player.
>>180073951
It's like a line graph last beta it was ok now it's shite.
>>180073951
it got better, but now it's worse than it was before
>>180074041
>>180074107
well has the performance at least gotten better? no more eating 8gbs of ram?
sorry for the questions but im stilling downloading the update
