Quake thread

>>376866007
Every argument with this game is the same. You complain and people will say ''It's a beta'' or ''Get Gud''. Just saved your time with this piece of shit game

>>376866007
And you're still shit. Once they implement an MMR system you will be getting shit stomped in duels I guarantee it.

>>376866856
But it is. The problems he mentioned wont exist when out of beta.

I must be the only person who doesn't get

>>376867256

I just hit level 10 and haven't had any issues.
You missed that rail because you're bad

>>376867376
>Works on my machine!
I've been in the Beta since week 1, the amount of people complaining in the private forums about the netcode is insane. It was actually much worse the first 2-3 weeks. I'm saying the discussion on the game is complete garbage because it all deters to ''it's a beta wait until release''

I wasn't having fun either until I started playing scrims with the australian quake community

Find people to play with. Most countries have quake fan communities of some kind.

>>376867589
Well it does work for me.

If you're talking about problems that are inevitably going to be non existent then people are going to say so.

That said, this duel format is starting to grow on me.

>>376867187
I eagerly await. I only like games when I'm getting destroyed. Overwatch is too easy. Ready to pick up tekken 7 and get my ass kicked.
>>376867376
>>376867589
Railgun feels worse this week than it did last week, and there are a lot more people just jittering around the map impossible to hit
Wish they would patch the fucking invisible lightning gun. Rocketlauncher does feel weird too

Is this gonna be on consoles?

>>376867969
Since you're a dev, can I ask you when you're going to move everything server side so the weapons aren't so shit to use?

If you were playing against me I was playing at 5 fps, it offers absolutely no graphical options, somehow I can run Overwatch and Paladins max setting 60 fps but can't run Doom 4 or Quake Champions on low with the lowest internal resolution. Why isn't there a fucking option to turn off antialiasing? What the fuck is id softwares new problem

>>376868147
When you get internet that isn't dog shit.

>>376868147
The only weapon that CAN be client-sided (unlagged) is the railgun and I'm pretty sure it is.

>>376868306
sorry, that and the LG and MG

>>376866007
I don't like how the netcode works.
the enemy is shooting position where i am a second ago and i'm dead.
and when i shoot enemies, it seems like they just can't fucking die,
while sometimes they can normally.
i had died a few times behind walls too.

also, it's so boring to just run and shoot around.
there's no gameplay in this game besides "try to aim precisely"

>>376868134
this game is too advanced for consoles

>>376868241
" SyncError mentioned in rapha's stream chat tonight [...] that they are currently changing the netcode for the projectiles (rockets, nailgun, etc) to server-side. This will fix the rocket delay. Here's the quote from him addressing this last part: @shane_rapha Your issue at Heavy with nails will be fixed soon as well, we're in the middle of moving projectiles to server-side.. which is why they are slightly off atm, including the famous question about rockets atm."
Thanks for making yourself look like a fucking dumbass!

Shut up faggot. Pay $10 and get raped in Quake Live by the super hardcore Quake fans if you need a challenge so badly.

>>376868596
Duel me kiddo. I'm tier Xaero on this shit.

There is LITERALLY 0% absolutely no reason at all ever to play this dogshit when Quake Live exists. This thing is a joke and will be dead on arrival. Bethesda can't even get this piece of trash hyped up paying streamers to play it.

>>376868890
uh, fatal1ty prefers it over quake live
so it's obviously better retard

holy shit people in this thread are retarded about server side / client side. Why would you use those words if you have no clue what it means?

You can have guns that appear 0 latency, aka you see them fire on your client as soon as you click, but the server side (latency included) determines if they hit.

You can have synced gameplay which shows you the lagged actions but is always 100% accurate. (This feels like shit in FPS)

Server Side vs Client side is not a real binary thing. It is more granular. You can have client side immediate reactions and server side hit detections. You can favor the shooter or the person being shot. You can do tons of shit.

This whole is it server side or client side filth people are posting makes zero sense. The netcode currently feels like shit on projectiles though and as seen in the thread they are changing how they do it.

>>376869054

>guy that is either directly shilling for bethesda or is desperately trying to make a quick buck off "the return of quack"

whoa

I haven't had any network issues whatsoever, but I live in Western NA, so I'm in a good geographical locations for online vidya.

I have had a serious problem with load times, though; it takes almost 4 minutes for the game to load up initially, takes 2-3 minutes to load into a map, and on my first game of the session; my game will stutter immensely making the 1st minute of the match absolutely unplayable, then it smoothens out and runs perfectly. Does anyone know what I'm talking about here or is it just me?

>>376869189
Do you have an SSD?

>>376869285
No, should I get one? I'm thinking it might be my RAAM, actually, I only have 8gs

Anyone want keys?

just add a classic matchmaking option, if they fucking make it a custom game option rather then a default preset I will drop this game so hard

>>376869407
No idea, but a few games like path of exile and some other require SSD for some reason. Was thinking quake champ is like that.

>>376869189
I'm also western NA with no network problems. Game is slow to load initially even on an SSD but is alright after that. Usually my first match after booting has a bit of stuttering then is completely fine.

>>376868432
So they're too incompetent to make a console game?

>>376869428
you can generate indefinite amounts off their website, basically open beta now

>>376869189
I have the same issues, the game does have memory leak issues that can slow it down. I find that it takes a long time to load when first starting but gets better after a while.

I also get netcode issues which are annoying, my connection isn't even bad but sometimes during the game random lag spikes will happen.

>>376868134
Can't imagine playing a game like this on console, it could be done but it'd play completely differently.

>>376868134
>>376870409

Splitscreen versus modes in console shooters have always been there to serve you and your buddy in a sleepover, they don't play like the way developers intended them to be. Unless if it's something like Unreal Championship 2 where they remolded the gameplay specifically around the input method. Also ignoring games that let you plug in a keyboard and mouse like UT3, Q3, etc.

They said during the E3 announcement that it is a PC exclusive.

Why does it always seem like I can't kill shit in this game?

Like shit I hit a Sorlag 3 times with a zoomed rail and I couldn't kill the fucker.
If it's taking a set amount off of health or armor or something I think it would make more sense to color them as such because I can't figure it the fuck out.

>>376877605
Sorlag has a ton of starting health. It actually takes a good 3-4 seconds to kill an AFK Sorlag with the LG. I know this because I just played some TDM with an AFK Sorlag. I sat there and LG'd her to death. It took a surprisingly long time.

I imagine a tanked Sorlag would be a pain to take down.

>>376878165
That seems kind of fucked. I guess if you run up against one you're shit out of luck, then? Especially with that ridiculous ability she has.

>>376875353
It's going to die a painful death.

trying to run mega and large armor is exhausting, I can only do it for so long. coming from DOOM 2016 where the armors didn't matter at all so usually all you had to time was the quad and the rune and sometimes mega, all of which were well over 30 sec on the timer. timing and map control is much harder and more involved in QC. I need to step it up

is anyone finding the super nailgun useful? can't seem to hit shit with it, except at close range where I start getting disoriented anyway

Galena, Anarki, Sorlag

>>376878278
It's probably closer to like 2.75-3 seconds, but still, that is a long time in LG damage. She's slow though. So she's easy to out maneuver. She does pretty well on Burial Chamber since it's pretty flat. I don't see anyone even try to Sorlag on Blood Covenant or Ruins of Sarnath. There's too many portals and jump pads.

Back when the beta started and the netcode was smooth, I was wrecking shit with the SNG and stating Nail Gun. I got the "Nail Gun God" models frequently.

These last few betas, the net code has gone to shit and matches are choppy as fuck. I rely solely on the LG like everyone else does.

I wanted to play the fuck outta the game with friends tonight but the Bethesda launcher is so shit. It downloads at like 100kbs a sec. If this was Steam it would be done in 25 min but instead I was stuck at 20 hrs for the full DL despite my fast DL. If you stop the download to turn off your comp it restarts from 0%. Fuck this game. I am not willing to wait for this slow as shit. Unreal Tournament here we come. All because Bethesda has to have their own store.

It's not that hard, holy shit.

I'm loving the Beta. My only problem is that I can't imagine playing it for too long.

There's just really no variation after a while. Unless they add a shit ton of new modes, it'll get repetitive really fast.

>>376882183

you can a) quit being a baby and take your beating like man, and realize it happens to everyone and focus on improving your game b) wait until proper matchmaking c) blame the game for being too good to let you win for being shit and quit

It has classes but it isn't class based

The little abilities you get are fucking stupid as shit. I just want guns and murder why do faggots have to add this 'Q' shit. Fucking Overwatch.

>>376884750
I may be wrong but I think the abilities will have most effect on challenging for quad damage. like teams are going to have to choose the right champions for their lineup to make sure they all have the perfect abilities to coordinate and spam when it's time for quad to spawn

I'll find competetive sacrifice interesting to be honest
Is it bad that I think I like deathmatch so much is because of FFA in call of duty

I cant even launch it because i have amd gpu with intel cpu, that combo sometimes makes you stuck at loading screen
