it's a dead genre that people only like to talk about to show how leet and hardcore they are, but nobody actually finds those games fun or actually plays them anymore.

Not everyone is an arena shooter obsessed shitter.

Except for those 3 or 4 real purists, people don't want arena shooters they only think they do, that's why they don't play any of them even the big names like Quake Live and Unreal Tournament.

Also the UT series has a splitted community with people that want UT4 to be like UT99 and others that want it to be like UT2k4, nobody is really pleased with the game at the moment.

But we all know Quake Champions is the only one that will matter.

this isn't fucking muh quake. at least ut has the BALLS to stick to its guns.

I am a tre afps aficionado. I've got 8 hours on QLIve.

I've been having an itch for a little while now to really learn an arena FPS, like movement tutorials and learning to stack and stuff. But it's kind of like fighting games where I really want to do it with someone else who is just as trash as I am so it's not just me forever getting stomped by people who've been playing since QW or UT99. Oh well.

good luck with that
10% difference in skill in arena shooters literally makes better player untouchable

>>377096247
That's probably why I'll never actually get to doing it. But I still have that itch.

Play with bots.
There is very little difference in arena shooters between bots and human players, except that bots fall for spamming.

instead you're all casual mario party obsessed shitters

Yes but sticking to the past to keep the last few purists interested will not keep a game alive. You need a hybrid game that keep what made the genre great but adds new things to it.

With the champions in QC you can add meaningful content for years to keep people interested, it's more than maps and skins. I bet in the end almost nobody will play the "classic mode" of QC despite what everyone is saying.

it's been in Alpha since forever and the devs would rather work on Paragon than on UT anymore


The game is fantastic for how early in its developement it is, but many players just left because updates are so slow to come

>at least ut has the BALLS to stick to its guns.
say that to the fall 2016 update where most people had quit by then and that change made everyone else give up all hope.

Now is the best time to get into Quake Champions. Movement system is similar to Q3/QL (other than specific heroes having different moves such as walljump/crouch slide) and there's lots of noobs picking it up as their very first quake game so that you don't end up getting stomped by 99% of the community all the time
