QUAKE

Why is BJ OP?

How is the new duel format? Are powers like wallhack and shit too much there?

>Why is BJ OP?
Duel LG or miniguns are too strong

No it only makes the game more interesting

How so? Good map awareness is a skill in itself.

>>381423610
Watch 125fps cup

>>381423129
No I don't

>>381423129
no

>>381423828
>dual LG completely shitting on a better stacked player
I gave it a chance.

>>381423129
It has the feel of nuDOOM except with superior Quake mechanics. Of course I like it.

Literally the only reason i hated that fucking beta outside of Clutch's retarded ability bringing TDM to a fucking crawl.

>>381424126
Cypher outplayed his opponents on other characters as well.

>>381424410
I watched evil against some literally who.

>>381424538
Evil is terrible at QC.
He's also legit obsessed about being ddos'd all the time.

>>381424309
Is this for real?
I'm also stuck with shitty ADSL2+ until who knows when.
Why would it even work that way?

>>381424882
>>381424309
If your ping is 50+ you can forget about it, it's unplayable. Also enemy models move in incredibly laggy fashion with 50+ ping.

>>381424882
because lolbethesda, im not sure if they've actually commented on it but thats the general consensus from everybody in the Australian matches that werent on the NBN.

Nobody was happy, and theres at least evidence in the forums that people arent.

>>381424996
It wasnt a ping issue, even maintaining 30 or less ping if your upload speed wasnt up to par then you got the absolute shit lag where literally every shot from any gun was delayed by like a solid second and everybody around you was three seconds ahead.

>>381423129

Even for all its problems, I really really hope Quake Champions does well. It's far beyond better than the other garbage modern FPS out now.

>>381425440
Remember when playing CS at a 150 ping on 56k was literally fine? It's a shame how the internet is clogged up with shit now.

I think a lot of trash players complain about QC more than it deserves, trying to justify their lack of skill in game. I've been playing Quake since Q2 (duels), skipped a lot of time since Q3 OSP but I still like QC. It's fun to play.

>>381423229
Powers last for a very short time so It's enhancing the gameplay instead of breaking it.

>>381426194
With this duel format where it's 3 lives for a round that's a fucking lot.

>>381426237
I don't like that you only need 3 frags to win too.
Or even 1 frag if you hide the rest of the time.

But on tournaments they play like bo5 or bo7 of those in-game match series, at least in the grand final.

>>381423129
>Eating shit in 2017

That's fucking disgusting man

>>381426750
No one cares what you eat, anon.

Quake Champions is a fucking CASUAL piece of shit.

"I played Q3 and I still like QC"

"I played the original Quake, and I love Champions!"

Just shut your damn mouth. Watching a 5 min video of someone playing Quake II or III, doesn't give you the right to say you've played it. So stop lying.

By the way, do you know how I know you're a lying piece of shit?

It's simple...

BECAUSE NO OLD SCHOOL QUAKE PLAYER LOVES QUAKE CHAMPIONS

Let me tell you something, fuckwit: Quake was a good game, because it put everone on the SAME level. And the only way to win, was to have SKILL.

Now, tell me... How the hell on earth, can you gauge someones reflex and skill, if you have like 20 different heroes with different abilities, perks, levels, unlocks, etc? How can you do that?

I'll tell you...

YOU CAN'T

Because Quake Champions is a shitty game made for casual MOBA lovers. Bethesda saw the popularity of LoL, Overwatch and Team Fortress 2, so they decided to come up with a shitty MOBA FPS.

Why the name Quake, then?

Simple. People are more eager to try, and play, a game that sounds familiar to them. Now, let me ask you, have you played the last Prey game? Did you find any similarities with the series? No you didn't, because the name was just a marketing stunt.

You guys are dumb cunts for supporting this MOBA shit. It's creating a bad image for the name Quake, and young kids will now remember the franchise as some Overwatch clone.

Pathetic.

P.S: Don't even respond, you filthy casual cunts. Go play more Quake Champions, Far Cry Primal, Overwatch and some Call of Duty WWII beta.

Pussies.

>>381427179
Rapha says hi, he wanted you to know that you are a massive faggot.

>>381427341
>big name pro paid to say a new competitive game is good
What's new?

>>381424607

>fps 'pro' concerned about being ddos

really? tell me more, this type of paranoia sounds fascinating

>>381427179
So play Q3 then

>>381427381
>Do I fit in yet guys?
>S-seriously can I be part of a cool guys club?
>Guys? Please?

Let me ask you one question. Have you actually played the beta?

>have to buy new characters with real money
Yeah, no.

Quake Champion would be good if they removed abilities

>>381427527
Yeah, it's a pretty solid shooter in my opinion. However if I want to play a competitive FPS I either play Q3 or QW.

>>381427563
guess what. They are removing the abilities. Oh and they are making HP equal for everything. And movement speed. And you can pick any hero you want so you pick one with the smallest hitbox. Yes, seriously.

>hurrr why isnt it exactly like Q3
because Q3 came out almost 20 fucking years ago and releasing the same exact game AGAIN would be a death knell for the series. games have to innovate to stay relevant, and no company would let Quake rot as a 90s memory because of "muh purity"

>>381427667
/thread

You get your classic mode too, you fuckng neckbeards purist. How come I played Q2 and Q3a in my lad days yet i don't complain?

>>381427667
Sure. That's why Counter-Strike GO was a death knell for the series?

You're just extremely dumb.

Go read a book on marketing, and then come back...
Bethesda changed the game because they want to appeal to the masses. And guess what is popular now? MOBAs and Overwatch.

My little 8 years old cousin plays Overwatch... and he's good at it.

He'll definitely like Quake Champions.

>>381428193
Nope, he's gonna get stomed into the ground by vets because vets like that new game. I've met plenty already, there's a vocal community forming on youtube too.

>>381428193
CSGO wasn't popular at all and was HATED by CS:S pros until the crates came and gave everyone a reason to log in every day. Not an argument.

Lmao Brah?...is this a joke

You do know that games copy what ever is popular at the current time But a good company will stay loyal to it's fans and not turn everything into a Dumbed down PoS for noobs/casuals

Resident Evil is 1 of the best Examples of that Trend

Quake Champions is the Dark Souls of Quake

>>381428642
RE isn't a multiplayer game though

>>381427179
>Just shut your damn mouth. Watching a 5 min video of someone playing Quake II or III, doesn't give you the right to say you've played it. So stop lying.
I can shit on you in Q2, Q3 and QC and I still like QC you underage newfag from plebbit.

Ever since unlimited beta hit, there's even less players available.

Can't even get a random match now.

>>381427563
>Quake Champion would be good if they removed abilities

Abilities make it much more interesting to watch and to play.
In fact it adds so much more to just stale ztn and dm6 it's fascinating.

No thanks.

If Quake 3 was so good then why it died and no one fucking cared about that garbage?

Shhh, don't tell the newfag that every new Quake was hated by the previous Quake-fags.

Yes you can. The player who won is the better player. No game has this imaginary problem you created

It's funny how people claim themselves as "quake veterans" and shit on QC but in reality you are fucking unskilled pieces of shit who never learned how to play any Quake.

>check what veterans think
>Polosatiy likes it
>Fatality likes it
>Zero4 likes it
>Cooller likes it

Not counting players who pretty much started with QL like Rapha, but they like it as well.
Everyone knows that Quake scene is dead as shit, no sponsorship, no tournaments except QuakeCon (small as fuck compared to Valve's majors) and with QC there's a hope to make it alive again.

>>381429279
Ok.

So the years I've spent honing and mastering my insta rail-gun shots, will now be countered by some kid that spent $10 to unlock a champion that has the ability to create a shield around him for 10 seconds... or go invisible.

You're right... that kid totally has skill!

Dumb cunt.

>>381429696
You realize that you can use the same heroes with the same abilities, right? Fucking retard.

You realize that there's a picking part that involves planning and counter picking, right? Fucking dumb shit.

>>381429696
Also all heroes are opened for everyone already, you fucking mongoloid.

>>381428376
CS:S pros.... lmfao.

The real pros played CS 1.6, not Source.

>>381428297

These guys are PAID to do that. Wake up.

This reminds me of Dota 2...

which is...

A MOBA GAME.

>>381429862

It's FREE TO PLAY

How do you think they'll monetize their shitty game?

>>381425519
jeez, marketers are lazy these days

>>381430329
There's been over a decade of F2P shit that had promising beta stages but eventually turned to shit because the microtransactions were pushed harder -- the logical conclusion of games that use the business model. It amazes me how people still haven't learned.

>>381424309
I nver noticed that guy wears a shirt with the symbol of the horde.

Sad indeed.
When trash players try to act like veterans it's always sad.

>>381430329
It's not MOBA because you can draft, you fucking idiot.

I don't understand. Please write a better shitpost, that's enjoyable to read

>>381423129
Not really, never liked the whole idea of locking down super powerful powerups and the whole meta that comes from that.

Did they fix retarded hit detection?

so can anyone who actually knows what strafe jumping is confirm if it's in the game or not? i'm not gonna touch it and so far I haven't seen any real strafing despite people claiming there is`

how can i enjoy something that i and 99% of the playerbase literally cannot even play after e3 patch

>>381431819
they literally can't, so they scrapped the grenade launcher and replaced it with some dumb new weapon thats basically a shotgun

>>381432101
it's in the game, why don't you just go play it and see for yourself

>>381427179
classic arena shooters are dead, every modern attempt has failed to retain players for more than a few months and Quake Live itself is dying

QC is a new take on the classic arena shooters and has to bring something new to the table to be successful, people aren't going to play another Q3 clone, let alone pay for its content

>>381432273
>tri-gun is shotgun

Did you even play the game you fucking retard?

>>381423129
>scrapped the grenade launcher and replaced it with some dumb new weapon thats basically a shotgun

Holy fuck, this is beyond retarded.

Are you fucking stupid or something?

You are the reason Quake died.

>>381429123
Sorry I do not like them and found they added nothing good to gameplay

>>381432101
everyone has strafe jumping, but there's a character that gets a higher cap speed from repeatedly doing it.

Everyone also gains speed when jumping but there's a character who gets much faster while doing it.

>>381433569
The GL sucked anyway, who cares?
