They're not very similar other than being FPS with "heroes".

Only if you played the beta. If you didn't, you have to wait until next year. Or pay $30.

I know you're memeing because you
A. Haven't played it

It comes down to taste.

I just fucking hate capture the point stuff so I never bothered with Overwatch because from the outside looking in that's all their is. The Sacrifice game type in QC is interesting and I play that sometimes but I like good old DM/TDM/Duel the most.

Do you really think Beth will leave it just like that after release? It has "Quake" in the name and both id and Beth knows it so id will try capture the Quake feeling for all cost (imo it might cost them some staff reduction after failure) and Beth will try to market it hard after release. And it will be promoted more than LawBreakers and way harder than Battleborn. Atm soft marketing is happening right now (contract with AMD, $1M tournament) but nothing intensive.

Overwatch is shit, you may consider buying it if they happen to unfuck the game.

Do not recommend buying quake champions since it's a game involving bethesda + in early access, issues are probably not going to be addressed for months and even years.

If you want to play or try "fps with heroes", you should first try paladins, it's better than overwatch, even though it blatantly stole some of the ideas from it.

If you want to play quake, it's better to try quake live.
>>
>>389141430
>>389141674
It's quake. Either you've been playing it for a decade and enjoy it, or you rarely if ever play it.
Particularly with destiny 2 coming out, it really doesn't have much of a future. It's always going to be nothing but high level play.
>>
>>389138801
it will most assuredly be dead. I'm not the guy you're replying to, but I have played it, and it has drastically inferior gameplay to older Quake games (and pretty much every arena FPS that exists). It is a downgrade in every respect (except for graphics, lul) and plays like clunky dogshit. Bethesda might have money, but that doesn't mean they're not woefully clueless. Overwatch will still be popular in a year, QC will not

I'm afraid they're gonna nerf Sorlag due to shitter complaints.

Her stack needs to stay as it is. It's the same as Clutch's and nobody calls him broken, and he even has better mobility. Sorlag's main problem is that the spit is incredibly annoying on all gamemodes and it's only a 30 sec cooldown

I can't stand any other character's gross post-Q2 movement, Sorlag is the only character that feels like Quakeworld and I love it. Make the acid spit 45 seconds and she's perfect

the funny thing is that OW is much harder to play well than QC. The skill ceiling on Pharah (a Quake-inspired hero) alone is higher than anything QC has to offer. It is a dumbed-down version of Quake for babbies and that's why washed up veterans like rapha, cooller, and dahang are abandoning a game they failed to find any success in (despite being on pro teams) to play this comfort zone garbage game. They know they'll never catch up to the Koreans or even the Europeans in OW, but they might be able to frag some noobs in QC for awhile that haven't played q3dm6 a hundred thousand times like they have.

Stop right there.

Paladins is good, because it's less retarded version of OW and also for free. Quake Champions on the other hand is very hard but way more rewarding than both when you get good. I recommend to bring some friends into it.

I wish they made it so hourglasses were replaced with +5 Health AND Armour pickups, cooldowns are cooldowns for a reason and only Galena needs the reduction as part of her abilities (which even then can be unaffected through picking up healing to recover cooldown).

Quake Champions is gonna be free once it leaves Early Access, so take that into consideration. Chances are it will also be quite dead, which is a shame.
Overwatch is good casual fun, and they added DM and TDM too. It'll be quite healthy for some time i'd bet and say what you will about blizzard, but they tend to support their games for a very long time.

Oldfag here, I played the fuck out of original Q3 and rocket arena (think Warsow). Will I enjoy the new Quake or will it feel worse than those? I missed all the beta periods so I haven't had a chance to try it.

It's free if you want to suffer through the Bethesda launcher, otherwise cough up $30 on steam or wait for the free version on steam later this year
>>
>>389144235
Because that whole concept only works when working as a team towards a specific objective. It's not like people are gonna pick support heroes or most tanks to play DM, it's just gonna be DPS focused heroes and it actually works.
>>
>>389144637
Don't you also get all current champions and future champions if you pay? It's worth paying for it, and it's not expensive at all.
>>
>>389144542
Actually, no. Q3's direction was a push by Carmack, they didn't want to make a MP-only game

The company had heavily bled talent by then as well, it was a practical decision

Why are you trying to shill Tim Willits, he's a fucking loser, Romero and Carmack called him out on trying to claim he invented the idea of MP-only levels in FPS. Romero even cited games that came before Q1 that had it, like ROTT, instantly winning the argument

Quake Champions is destined to be a C-list game for all eternity due to it being F2P. It will become a home to BRs and Ruskies.
>>
>>389136165
>Both are beloved in their own way
So you're going to get a game not because you want to play it, but because of this?
>>
>>389144734
Because Quake Champions as a (Quake) game is already working - it has movement from every Quake franchinse and not only (UT dash, Warsow walljump). Gameplay is juicy (but slightly buggy), 1v1 formula is working surprisingly decent, champions increase skillcap, forcing slightly diffrent behavior on every champ. I could go on and on here. Now for real it's only lacking maps and some slight imbalance over some champs but that's all - those can be ironed over time.
>>
>>389145038
If you missed the beta, you can't play for free on the bethesda launcher right now. Spend the $30, it's worth it. The shitposters on /v/ want it to fail for some unknown reason, but it's a solid game already and plenty of old and new fags are having a lot of fun with it.

Yes, but why are you lying about Tim Willits. He was not a designer in Q3, check the credits. You said Q3 was "his vision" which is something blatantly false

The greatness of the old Quakes had little to do with him

I dunno, I think the legitimately like it and they get angry when you disagree. I've had giant arguments with them. Maybe I fell for their bait. Though, DoA 5 isn't a bad game and it's funny to make people angry in multiplayer because it's a bunch of drunk ass dad's playing.

>look up some guides because new to Quake

I'm entering uncharted territories, lads. Help.
>>
>>389145761
Few pros use setups like that, and even less worthy of note. Most famous was probably toxjc, which for a time shot with the "c" key on the keyboard
>>
>>389145761
The low sensitivity thing is something you get used to and it's actually a good habit to have. But if you already play fine with normal fps controls there's no reason to change unless you're trying to be number one every time. For now as a starter I would try to master movement and aim, those are the most important things. And button mapping will only make things more difficult starting out.

>>389145761
Good thing you can use your own binds - this is true in almost any game, really. You need not be scared.
>>
>>389145761
This isn't unique to Quake or any other arena fps for that matter; my csgo friend has his movment bound to the arrow keys, jump to m2, secondary fire to kp_ins/num0, rctrl for crouch and rshift for walk. Also his mouse y-axis is inverted. And he plays with 800 cpi sens 1 win 6/11

I wouldn't try playing Slash until you get the hang of strafe jumping, because you have to add that crouch slide in with her. You can do some crazy shit once you learn it though:

Didn't read the trhead but I was in a similar situation after getting me Lawbreakers on release and we all know how that turned out.
Tried Quake Champions in hopes I'd get Q3A feeling again but the hero system in combination with the business model turned me off and somehow netcode or animations felt weird, not quite sure what's wrong but it wasn't as snappy and precise as it should have been. So I bought me a cheap Overwatch key and 7 days into it I'm still having a good time.

Depends how you feel about FPS games

Quake is designed for people who really like FPS.

Overwatch is designed for people who dislike FPS and aren't good at it, but kind of want to play it anyway
>>
>>389150540
TF2 with community servers was casual fun. It was harmless, it was benign.

24/7 instarespawn 2fort, that's a good way to blow off some steam. Dance parties in the intel room, go make a sentry nest in the sewers, sniper duels on the battlements while everybody else just wanders from deathmatch to deathmatch.

Overwatch is filled with MOBA players masquerading as FPS players. They are psychotic, and the game astroturfing pretty much everything to push up its esports angle does not help anyone's behavior.

I''ve got modest FPS ability, I will get bodied to hell and back when I'm out of my depth, but I'd never met anybody overtly unpleasant in Quake.

What should I be doing to switch weapons? I feel like that's my biggest weakness in Champions and Live, I just use the best gun I have until I get something better like rocket or lightning because I'm way too used to small weapon limits in modern FPS games.

Do I just have to get used to pressing the number keys?
>>
>>389136165
Get quake champions.
Overwatch is boring.
>>
>>389155076
A lot of high level play will be focused on you switching weapons midfight. Opening up with a powerful rocket volley then immediately following up with lightning or even something more modest like the shotgun to seal the deal.

Rather than the usual 1-9 I would bind your gun keys closer to WASD. Obviously 1-5 is going to be fine, but think of it more like a circle or a wheel around your movement keys.

>It's still 90% Quack though.

Which is good.
Maintaining the old Quake feeling and adding new gameplay elements at the same time was no easy task, and i'm quite happy with what they came up with.

Now a fix for the netcode...
>>
>>389157404
Why are modern devs so bad at optimization.

>>389157661
they are aware of the netcode / hitreg issue and they are working on it
at least thats what they said in their latest q&a
>>
>>389157803
It's just Intel that can't into GPUs.
Look for Larrabee to understand how retarded they are.
