>ctrl+f >'quake' >0 results WHAT THE FUCK

It's shit bethshill tell todd I said Hi though.

So what you're saying is they've done 4 betas since the last one I played it and all the major issues are still present?

Dead on arrival.

>>376793458
Weapon balance is still shit and connections haven't improved.

>>376793458
Oh hi Tedd

>>376793605

All your concerns will be solved once the cash shop goes live.
Thank you for your feedback.

>>376793605
The beta tests seem more to check out the characters and modes they added each weekend instead of actual bug testing. Only had one teleporter today but I noticed a lot more high ping compared to the closed beta

It's not what I want in a quake game. Especially the champion thing with different capabilities and health is annoying. Why would you include a champion with a wallhack as his ability in a competitive shooter.
The weapons don't feel all too good. They just seem bland and lack a certain character.

>>376794482

Either that's a very VERY specific hitbox or that's terrible rego.

>>376794482
>Why would you include a champion with a wallhack as his ability in a competitive shooter

Ban it at tournaments.

the problem with this game isn't the champions it's that the weapons feel like shit, especially the rocket launcher.

>>376794482
haha u r just quakedad xd
In all seriousness the abilities are annoying don't really add much
Rockets are laggy and railgun should not do more damage when zoomed
Typical new-age id i guess

Yeah I'm not gonna lie. It's quite shit famalams.

You're better off buying a Switch which is a bad idea anyway but at least it's got potential.

>>376795789
agreed the abilities are basically get otu of jail free cards when you fuck up

Played for like 6h before deleting it.

It's absolute shit and not Quake.

fuck sorlag

>>376795789
>railgun should not do more damage when zoomed

why though, it was 100 in Q3 and nerfed to 80 in QL, so they just went middle ground, but now it does 90 zoomed instead of 100 since they nerfed it in the beta

>>376793458
been playing since beta started a bit every week
and literally nothing changes, some number moving, a new map, a new mode, and its the same shitty game
at first i thought maybe they will fix the shitty ui and rework the hero skill system, but at this point its obvious this is what we get

it sucks ass

>>376796926
so you need to quickscope like a retard instead of having ajustable fov....

Gameplay is decent for someone like me who hasn't seriously played any of the arena shooters. However, unless I'm getting shot at by a railgun or rocket launcher, I literally don't hear or see myself taking damage. The life counter is super hard to see, too. These two things combined make it a surprise how much HP I got after every firefight. They really need to work on this shit.

Also, what the fuck is the nailgun and where is the plasma gun.

It's still shit, this many beta periods in. This thing will be DOA.

Not even the le old skool quakedads that either depend on its success for their livelihood or that Bethesda is outright paying to shill can save it.

>>376797168
>Also, what the fuck is the nailgun and where is the plasma gun.
probably a legendary skin for nailgun you will have to pay $ for

>>376797479
The plasma gun did area damage though, this nail gun shit is just a redundant, worse version of the machinegun on the count of it being impossible to hit people due to ping.

Sounds like an Overwatch clone. Hahahahahahahah

why are the graphics so bad?

i just watched some gameplay thinking it was old quake cause they couldnt show it yet but its actually the new one

Have they added Classic mode yet? No? Don't care.

>>376797598
>The plasma gun did area damage though, this nail gun shit is just a redundant, worse version of the machinegun on the count of it being impossible to hit people due to ping.
True
Nail gun is a nightmare to use, the projectile speed is just too slow for the damage it does
Works only up in your face, and a good player wont get that close unless he has to

Anybody wanna group and play so we can enjoy the game and ignore the whiners?

Is it just me, or is everybody playing deathmatch super shit? Like I regularly get a 3-4 k/d

sad reminder that pandering to quakefags will kill your game because they hate everything

visor is trash, and his ability is not all that useful.
You can hear him using it and you can hear/predict where the player is going to be at in duels anyway.

>have to dl bethesda.net launcher

Great another "not steam" program for another game.

overwatch's hanzo has better hitboxes than this , and remember how that started.

I wish the new Unreal wasn't dead.

>>376801904
i mean hey atleast its skill ceiling will be higher and more rewarding than ow

The core of the game is great, but im pretty sure devs will go full retard and focus on the cash shop, retarded game modes and questionable decisions in order to appeal to the casual crowd, while the obvious issues with the game will remain ignored.

Any real arena shooter purist will avoid this piece of garbage while the bigger part (casuals) will just steer away from it after not being able to maintain a positive kdr. Only people that are left will be the "uh I wanna play arena shooter but quakelive, reflex and other clones are too hard! xS"

>>376802929

More like fuckind DEAD

I doubt it, considering all champions are unlocked anyway and they are asking for feedback about prices in surveys

bunch of stupid problems that should have been obvious
feels kinda clunky generally

>>376803020

You only need 2 players to play the game.

Currently most quake live players in EU are russians. I assume they are have poor pc so quake live might actually survive even when this shis is released.

I think you should read that again.

>>376803020

they can't just make it cost 500000k currency and expect people to grind the fuck out on a beta

Yea I dont play it anymore and where did I say I do? What a good argument and totally makes QC not a bad game anymore.

>>376803248
They are all already unlocked for you in the beta, what the fuck are you talking about. You can peek in the store anyway and look at the prices, but you already own everything
>>376803158
Ah, pretty gay. I kind of just assumed the game was going to cost money anyway and didn't even realize it was free to play. But ranger is one of the best guys anyway it doesn't even matter if you have to play some woth him every day

>>376803402
>HAHA YOU'RE TOO SHIT FOR REFLEX
so are you apparently

Quake champions, on it's own, without comparing it to games old faggots play, or games new faggots play, is actually really good and fun. But there is just fucking baggage with the name and the concept that make this thing doomed

oh but that wouldn't bring in people who only buy games because they are called "quake" or "street fighter"

>>376803510
Without the name it's just another LawBreakers. Yeah, that game is totally relevant and big in this current market.

That would suck.

Ironically QC is pretty similar to nuDoom's multiplayer, none of the bandwagoning will admit it though
>>376803595
I was unaware that it relies on some outside service or master server to function
fact is quake will never die because anyone can just host a server and just play it
At some point QC will be shutdown and nobody will be able to even play it, this has happened to plenty of games already.

>>376803487
Yes I am.

And where did I say "HAHAHAHA YOURE SO SHIT"? All I did was tell you that the game is shit and that if you wanted to play arena shooter dont play this. If you wanted to play a team based shooter with abilities also dont play this. Even TF2 is better if you just want a shooter where you run around and kill people.

>>376803808
They enjoyed it for like a month until after release when it was clear the cycle of
-Release overpowered weapon
-Wait a month for sales to come in for weapon
-Nerf weapon into ground
-Release new weapon

Wasn't going to stop. The game died quickly after that.

I'd really wished they'd fixed out the gamebreaking bugs.

Duel is a god tier gamemode. I've been having insanely much fun on the duel ladder whenever I played and the game worked.

>>376803168

They nerfed it so instead of it going 8 to 12 damage when zoomed it only goes to 10.
Still fucking retarded though since it's a glorified casualisation fuck up from Live in the first place.

>>376804078
I'm not going to continue playing either, you disgusting faggot. Take your false sense of rivalry and get the fuck out.

>>376803808
Yeah but i was playing quake and tribes from '99 and i still play quake (old tribes are dead). Tribes ascend wasn't as extreme as old tribes but still good enough and i still play this almost dead game. Quake champions is not extreme as quake live but it's good and fun enough.... like tribes ascend.

Man that new mode is garbage, just make CTF why do this roundabout pseudo CTF that's not fun

>>376793458
What's the point of Arena shooters in 2017? It's literally the same game but with a new coat of skin. A few matches and you're bored with it already.

>>376804235

I presume they made new layers of the existing maps for it to open up into a CTF-like map, but their level designers aren't very good and you need custom maps to breathe life into CTF.

>>376803510

the funny part is that there is as big of changes between QW and Q2 and Q2 and Q3A and Q3A and Q4 as there is between QC and any other game in the franchise

each new Quake a ton of people from the previous one absolutely hated it for being different and kept playing the one they started on, you can go look up old forum posts of Q2 fags crying about Q3A "not being a real Quake" back in 99 for example

in reality QC is a direct sequel to Q3A/QL which originally was supposed to have different stats between the different characters. it's been in development since 2012 and was supposed to be a QL expansion or "QL 2". what they made is an expansion and evolution of the ideas from the original Q3A design docs

>>376803948
ascend got well over a year of pro love, then they fucked it up. i think it's a fine game after the out of the blue update, but it's dead and can't be revived.

other than tf2 and rarely in ql, no one seems to care about playing ctf. it's one of those modes that people don't bother with, but they'll complain if it's not in the game.

>>376804652
so basically team fortress

I've played it and its Q3 pretty much.
I like Quake and played since 90s (mostly Q2 tho).

It's a skill heavy game and that is its biggest problem - when you are outmatched you lose badly and its not fun at all. For a game to be popular it must have mechanics that let noob wins too and Quake lacks that badly.

So it needs to have a matchmaking system a la Overwatch where after a few losses you get paired with some MLG basement dweller and get your pang of victory as if you did anything.

Literally Team Fortress, more like. The original mod was for Quake.

>>376805124
Yes.

Apparently you can unlock characters through chests but what are the odds?

>>376804982
Firs of all It would need no snowballing by superior map control which prevents outmatched player from ever catching up when leading player runs with twice more hp/armor and controls the weapons too.
Then it would need brain-dead no-skill weapons (a-la BFG or some OW abilities).
And more randomness that make skill less important (a-la TF crits etc)

>>376805004
There is a huge difference between all the modern shooters designed for casuals which let you get some frags - even if you are total noob - and complete steamrolling by just SOMEWHAT better players that happens in skill-intensive games like Quake.
Deathmatch is more casual by the nature of course since it's more chaotic but duels or team games 'casuals' will stand no chance and this will be the reason QC wont be a mass popular game again.

>>376805657
Depends on the mode, map, and situation, but yea solrag is definitely one of the better ones. Scalebearer in general for me though

>>376805190
I put about six hours into the QC alpha

I would call it barely functional. The lag / shitty hitboxes and/or shitty hit registration makes it an annoying clusterfuck. Going back to overwatch until they make the game as responsive as QL.

Quake Champions sucks. Just play Overwatch.

This constant running for health packs and armor there is no strategy or team play it's just so basic bitch level of gameplay.

Nothing wrong with fast paced gameplay if it was done like Doom this is just worse than eternal beta Unreal Tournament which is pretty pathetic in it's own right but is leagues superior of a game to quake champions.

hope my laptop can handle this shit...

>>376805864
That's something you've gotta figure out for yourself

jscalc.io/calc/ugnBLorgk9Dk1zZ4

This is a calculator that converts overwatch sensitivity to Ql and QC

For quake you need to find the midground between being able to reliably rocket jump, and being able to track someone with lightning gun

The best way to find your ideal sens is to make or use a mark on the wall, either a texture or a bullet decal, or in overwatch you use the "eyes" of the training dummies in practice range. What you do is strafe left and right and see how well you can track the thing you're targeting with your mouse. You'll see this exercise in almost every "how to learn to aim in csgo" video on youtube. If you find you can track that tiny overwatch dummy eye perfectly while strafing left and right, try increasing your sens, if you can't, try lowering it.

You can't go into an offline match in QC right now as far as I know, but you can try this in QL or OW and convert the sens using that calc.

>>376806039
>there is no strategy or team play
This akin to someone who plays bastion, constantly holds m1 and dies to reflect and then goes on saying how the game is brainless because some characters just beat others.

>>376806107
so better players beat worse players and according to you that is the game's fault?

>>376805190

>>376806215
If a slight difference in skill leads to a miserable shutout for one player, and if improving at the game involves boring crap like practicing movement techniques in solo matches, then the game is not very good. There's a reason none of the people who defend Reflex actually spend their time playing Reflex.

t. a falseflagger

I play overwatch ocasionally with my sister, and they're completely different games. Not even an argument. QC still plays like an arena shooter and Overwatch is more akin to TF2 which is very far from being arena. The only thing they have in common is an ability mechanic that has a really long cooldown in comparison to OW abilities. If you don't like the game that's fine, but do yourself a favor and don't make yourself look like a fool by saying dumb shit like that.

>>376797168

>>376806525
so a game isn't good unless it lets you win?

Spent a few hours yesterday watching the who's whos of Quake legends streaming the game on Twitch and they seem to largely be hyped about the game despite its current rough edges

Are they all wrong or is /v/ wrong? Can't decide.

>>376806486
it's probably just some stupid injoke
like how Dota 2 has multiple characters saying "here's _____ in your eye"

>>376806847
/v/ is always wrong

>>376806847
We're in the same boat except we have zero faith bethesda will be able to fix the issues

>>376806847
a very very small minority of /v/ actually plays arena FPS while also being decent at it
the rest are just shitstains out for the cred of being an ebin quake player
if you see someone on /v/ criticizing a game and then bring up quake, they're probably lying.

>>376806847
They're hyped because they hope that someone will give a shit about them. The game is shit however and won't appeal to the masses because it's ugly, runs like shit and has still the unintuitive gameplay of Quake which made literally every other Quake clone that people made over the decades fail marvellously.

OY VEY I'M GONNA FLIP YA LIKE A TABLE *squawk*

>>376806845
Unless your getting paid to waste time practicing to play this shit which odds are you are better practicing sports if you want to get paid playing shit.

Then there is no point to spend the effort unless you are a carefree kid with no responsibilities and even then you just watch twitch because of ADD.

So if the game doesn't make you feel good and happy and instead makes you feel like shit because you lose constantly why would anyone play it?

That's why Overwatch is popular since it's designed to be bait for the average pick up and go player and the carry factor is huge.

>>376793458
What's the file-size for beta

>>376807235
13gb IIRC

>>376807134
You are the biggest fucking baby I've ever seen. holy shit

>>376806847
>hey seem to largely be hyped about the game despite its current rough edges
Ever heard the term "shilling" ?

>>376807018
The quake clones failed because they were quake CLONES. The people who still enjoyed playing quake had little reason to switch and the people who never played Quake had little reason to care because they were little indie games with no marketing and a tiny playerbase.

This is the first true AAA arena FPS in a good while.

>>376807134
Then why does everyone spend so much time learning to play Dark Souls at a high level and beat the difficult bosses

>>376807260
No, it's just called not being an idiot. That's why you have no money and have to play free 2 play beta garbage like Quake Champions.

And I could give a fuck I don't even play video games anymore since everything is shit on a stick, was just trying to explain to you why in this day and age QC will fail harder than your dad at birth control.

I GOT IN THE CLOSED BETA

>>376807302

>BOTW wasn't overhyped at all
>RE7 sucks
>Halo 5 is good
>"This weeb shit is good. I-I swear!"

Yep. /v/ is mostly, if not entirely, wrong

I feel many issues in terms of netcode/hitreg are due to server/client connection issues. Sometimes it is nonexistent, other times you can shoot a rocket right through someone.

The new mode is meh. Feels like they need better maps that need to be designed to create fast paced gameplay.

UI could use a tweak still

Clutch needs a buff/new ability. His shield is useless

LG needs to show the lightning. Otherwise I'm happy with how it is now

RL, for me so far, has had no delay in this beta and I am happy

Rail zoom dmg needs to go. 80/80

They got work to do still, but it has greatly improved from the . The hype is real

game is more shallow than overwatch, already bored of it after a few weekend betas

>>376807578
Oh.

>>376807272
If you think a game like this will appeal to a mainstream audience you must be delusional.

>>376807302
Dark Souls is easy as fuck.

>>376807736
they're also wrong about TW3 being good, and Persona 5

>>376807843
It will

It's got your moba heros and press f to get free kills, but there also is a skill curve for those that want to sink their teeth into it

It won't be insanely successful but it will do well

>>376806039
I'm fucking bored of Overwatch, Ults suck and it's too fucking slow
The base gameplay is not fun

>>376806847
>>376806993
This. Arena shooter threads are rare on /v/ but you always see a faggot criticizing games on multiplayer fps threads and bringing up either quake or unreal.

Also, I've been lurking QC threads since day one and /v/'s opinion shifted from "no hope" to "hey it's actually pretty fun but it needs some polish" and I agree with the latter. It is fun despite the characters being a lil bit different and rocket delay.

>>376807736
The only good part about Halo 5 was the multiplayer anon. Everything else apart from buck was shit.
>Design still in the shithole
>Grit lost
>Marty lost
>Story lost
>Chief, a guy who has been in war since he was a kid, struggling with a literal who. The only thing the guy had for him was the new mjolnir. Chief should be way more proficient at fighting.

I agree with everything else.

How's the game optimization now? Does it run decently on shittier PCs?

>>376808052
Halo 5 MP being good is an /hg/ meme

Listen Dan, I know work has been hard since 343i kicked you to the curb because your game sucks, but shilling on 4chan isn't the way to go

>>376808215
for me it runs a little better than the last beta, but others complain that their fps is lower

in either case it runs like shit and the loading times are measured in weeks

>>376808278
Meh. SWAT, DM, and TDM are k. Definitely has a more arena shooter feel. The abilities like ground pound, rush attack, etc are what made me dislike it. And yes, it felt too much like COD

can you play as anyone? or do you have to buy characters other than Ranger?

>>376808494
You don't have to buy anyone in the beta

So what's the best character for a filthy noob?

>>376808494

There are three currencies in game, one of them is called Favor and you get it just by playing or doing the Daily Challenges (stuff like get an air rocket kill for 3k Favor, you can also reroll Challenges if one is giving you a hard time). You can use it to buy the lowest tier loot boxes, or to "rent" a champ for 24 hours. It takes 5k Favor to rent a champ and it comes really easy so anyone who plays a few matches a day can run whomever their favorite few are all the time if they want without spending any real money.

You'll also just be able to buy the game in the form of the Champions Pack for something like $40 that unlocks all current and future content permanently if you aren't a f2p poorfag.

>>376808278
Never been to /hg/ my man. I regularly play it at my cousins house. MP is fine, not halo 3 fine but still good.

I think its actually great.

As resistant as I was to champions at first, I think they do add something to the game.

Quake has always been an extremely symmetric game compared to something like Starcraft or fighting games. Feels more like chess than a videogame in this sense. This helps a bit.

The new duel format is horrible for competitive viewing but I think its great to get people started early on and will take quite a bit of skill for it to lose its luster

I'm having some fun but half the games are very problematic
>queue up for tdm
>put into a match with 10:40 scores and it's a 2v4
>rockets and rails are laggy as fuck, half of them hit where the other player was half a second ago
That added onto the general issues like slow as balls weapon switching and the fact that it's very hard to have a comeback makes me say I won't be playing this for long

>>376793458
>rocket launch delay is still in and really fucking me up

No it isn't. You're just bad. I'm 90% sure they did something about the rocket delay this patch without announcing it in the patch notes.

Just so they can call out crybabies like you.

>>376808909
Avoid small characters, avoid Clutch. Frankly, to learn the basics of movement and the weapons, champion matters little. Just pick the one you like the most and that has abilities you like

>>376808909
Ranger

>>376808909
Honestly Ranger isn't a bad one to start with, he's a really solid all rounder in terms of speed and tankiness and his active has a bunch of uses.

It really boils down to preference though, I don't think there are really "good" or "bad" champs but some of them require more skill to use and there are certain situations where one is preferable to another. At the end of the day 98% of your success comes down to Quake skill and not picking the right guy.

>>376809113
How does the movement compare to Quake 3? I used to have good movement in 3, and also in bhop maps during 1.6

>>376807741
hahahaha

>>376809148
This. First few betas Anarki and Nyx dominated because of how broken they were. Now it really does feel like skill vs skill

>>376808769
The "Play" button is inactive for me if I select anyone other than Ranger......

>>376793458
What a disappointing fucking game

if ql and q3a disappeared sure maybe it would be worth it play but whats the fucking point of this shit.

>>376809285
It feels similar, butt overall slower.

If you have experience with Q3 it should be easy

>>376809317

Yeah at first everyone just spammed those two but after they nerfed their hitboxes and buffed the heavies I don't see any glaring balance problems at all as far as champions go.

>>376809339
You can pick afterwards so dont worry

>>376808982

I wrote off Duel as just not the mode for me after the first week it was available but after watching rapha and some other pros play it on stream I think there might be more than meets the eye to it in depth and strategy. I'm going to give it another spin this weekend and see if I can get into it.

>>376794482
you're terrible at quake if you think the wallhacks are good lmao

>>376809667
I just think that the rounds wont work live. Not because lack of depth, but because of how often the game gets interrupted

Like, how the hell do pros play vs each other like this?

3 duels with 3 rounds each means you will have 9 games of 5 minutes with quite a lot of downtime between duels.

IMO duel matchmaking should have a veto system where you can pick between the round system or the long uninterrupted high level system (just force players to cycle through heroes), if you and the player you matched against disagree then its 50-50

Is this really true? Didn't someone say the folder is 13 GB in a previous post?

>>376808001
The skills aren't decisive enough, the characters not cute and different enough, and the "skill curve" was part of the reason why the original Quake and its clones has failed to attract a greater audience simply because it's not straightforward enough.

>>376810946

They're probably just covering their arses, the download is only about 13gb.
Still, the way developers do it these days it could easily be extracted later on into a 50gb install.

Why do people hate fun video games? Just look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7wtkfQgsJg

While surely it is "too difficult" what the actual fuck does it matter? If the game had enough players you would surely find an opponent of your skill. But no. We everyone just hate fun. We only buy new games no matter if they're shit or not. If it has enough players we will play it. That said QC's success has absolutely nothing to do with it being a good game or not. If it "just gets players" it will start getting more players.

Is what my post was. I don't care if its identical in play compared to other quakes. I just want it to be good, and it certainly is not.

sometimes u shoot a little but that guy died immediately.

this is fucking awful. also, i thought i knew how to airstrafe and bunnyhop, but QC is telling me i know fucking nothing. i can't turn at all without just losing all my momentum and stopping, even if i sync perfectly. it seems to work better holding W, which is more like doom/OW air control, but that shouldn't be correct in a quake engine?

>>376821206
The game doesn't have any matchmaking whatsoever. Which was a huge fucking mistake, considering how unfun it is to be roflstomped in this game.

>>376821275

They kind of did though, with the shit abilities and passives. Not to mention all the heroes don't have the same speed/armor/health. AND THE FUCKING LOOTBOXES.

Seriously just a faster paced Overwatch.

>>376821421

I'm sure they'll add ELO eventually, perhaps clan arena as well.

New players have no idea how to time the power ups/armor pickups.
They think its just jumping around real fast and shoot things on sight.
Good players will not even let noobs pick up weapons after they killed them once.

I can see how this will scare people away.

> Not on Steam

Gee, I wonder why it's so dead for an "open" beta.

It's a moba

>>376820720
Its not network lag, the rocket delay is in the code. The firing animation probably needs to be trimmed or there's some other erroneous delay. Probably a punkbuster thing.

Congratulations, you've made me feel one step closer to killing myself

>>376821196
Possible if you time items and play safely.

Anarki is the only fun character to play.

>>376822705
his voice makes me wish i was deaf

>>376821887
stop right there

Still waiting for a console release. My pc is too shit to play this

>you can't kill nyx unless you have heavy burst
lovely game

>>376822785
Eat my balls, bro!

>>376823005
This game will be unplayable on consoles.

>>376823546
Counterpick him or guard his jungle, is basic ASSFAGGOTS knowledge, fampai.

>>376823903
Like all the previous Quake games, right?

>>376823963
>counterpick in an arena game

never thought i'd ever heard that in my life

>>376818816
same

>>376822785
JUICE IT UP, BABY

when do we get "no ability/stats" mode?
i'm tired shitless of fighting against scalebearer players, they eat so many rockets like it was nothing this is bullshit

This whole "Heroes" thing looks retarded.

Leave that shit in overwatch.

Wow even Halo 5 is more of an arena fps compared to this new bullshit. Really makes me think once in a--while

> wanting to download some shitty launcher for some f2p

I'll wait for steam or gog or wahtever release.

Why can't I strafe jump?

Don't you hold forward and then either left or right as you're jumping?

>>376821421
>Saved:Nickname, Skill Rating, Contact ...

Why are there so many people in Quake threads who haven't even downloaded the launcher?

>>376827475
And fling the mouse to left or right. Faster characters are better at it than tanky ones.

how to unlock heroes? i only have the ranger guy

>>376827719
If i'm hitting forward + left in mid air should I be flicking it to the right?

QC is too fast for me ... maybe I'm getting old. And the lack of good feedback when you take damage makes me hate it even more. I'd take Q3/L over QC anyday ....
