Gotta revive a dead thread to say the game is more fun now. Railing doesn't feel like putting holes through needles as much. Things actually hit. Sorlag still a tank. People playing Scalebearer more now. Anarki is still good. Galena and BJ are better now. Game needs more maps and CTF is probably going to include all the sacrifice maps.

I’m really starting to enjoy sacrifice. I think the mode is a lot more fun 3v3, less chaotic.

Nailguns are really good now. Hitboxes are pretty amazing now and everyone received a stack increase except Anarki who sucks now. Galena is a much more common pick since they buffed her totems to 100 dmg (ridiculous I know). Be careful of Clutch in sacrifice he can be pretty OP. Also instagib game mode and a no abilities modifier for custom games out this month. Edit: On second thought you might not have been gone that long so you’re probably aware of this stuff already. They skipped a February patch so nothing new. Social Animal fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Mar 3, 2018 |

Performance is a bit lacklustre when I've been coming back to this, so I followed this guide to help; http://www.mikemartin.co/gaming_guides/quake_champions#TOC-Dropped-Inconsistent-Frames You can also force the game to run in high CPU priority every time you launch it by creating a batch file and including this; code:

The latest patch feels a lot better for me in terms of performance, and I'm much happier with the relative speeds of the champions. From what I can glean from reddit, someone there figured out how all the physics settings interact for the Sabre developers, who can actually tune acceleration in a meaningful way now that someone told them what all their settings mean.

Game is on the right path just needs more champion balancing and CTF hopefully in June. A good team mode is really important since most people didn’t like sacrifice. I can see it going f2p maybe in December? Still too early to tell but I’m feeling positive about the game.

The game is more fun than it was before. All the changes they mentioned in the last dev stream are good, especially being able to unlock characters forever with favour. Also the deathcam won't show you your opponent's stack in competitive modes so that's nice. I wish mapmaking tools were in the works but I've accepted that it will probably never happen.

The recent patched have been pretty good. Seeing a lot more players now. Still needs a lot more content like maps in the future and CTF since nobody is playing Sacrafice.

Sacrifice is a neat mode but given how movement based QC is having a stationary area one team camps in kind of negates like half the abilities and passives of champions since so many are based on moving. It’s just not a good QC mode Also that new gore system is going to make air shots and super shotgun meat shots so much more satisfying

Jumped into this thing after a long break and played a few DMs. I'm real bead but the game feels really loving good now and even failing at it is fun as gently caress. It does keep crashing on me though so that is annoying(but hopefully will get fixed in time). Here have a smooth move from someone that's actually good:

Yeah I’ve been playing other things and I need to get back into strafe jumping out of habit again plus getting back into the hang of Slash’s crouch slide. I loved zipping around bends and making someone each a shotgun blast while grinding on my rad techno skates

As someone who last played during the closed beta there have definitely been some performance improvements. It seems the only gametype that you can find people for is TDM. Champion balance is fine in pickup games and I've seen every character used. Randoms still can't time armor or mega or quad. More for me!

I thought most of Instagib was gonna consist of Gahennas, Rangers, Nyx and randoms, but people are starting use Strogg for instant kill pew pew lazers. People picking up Clutch more since he's actually viable now, even if he still is a big target. Avenging Dentist posted:All I really want is some form of competitive FFA (granted, this isn't exactly trivial). And maybe some training modes. I expect the tutorials to be the very last thing to be actually finished or they'll completely forget those. Tbh, it's better for people to practice on the Quake Live tutorials.

I picked this up on a whim yesterday (played some QL but never got any good). oops I ended up playing like 6 hours of this; I’m having a really good time just farting around in TDM! I also feel like I’m getting a little better at my aim and at trying to stay stacked and not picking bad fights. If any of y’all are still playing this and want to queue up with a terrible player (I’ll do 2v2 too) hit me up! Also: I’m trying to start learning to rocket jump. If I do it “right”, how much damage should I be taking?

The only thing keeping me from playing more is the 2+ minutes of downtime between every single match. And locking you out of the scoreboard the second the match ends? Forcing you to stare at player models with goofy cosmetics for 30 seconds, instead? Obligatory pointless level-up screen? It's bafflingly bad. Save that dog poo poo for the inevitable mobile idle game crossover. Maybe I'm just cynical, but it seems like intentional design meant to encourage people to buy loot crates. Though, the only thing it makes me want to buy is another game that doesn't waste 1/4th of my time.

I admit I struggle with this to the point where I want to have a timer screen overlay macro I can activate for each but pubbies seem to ignore all of them most the time, even when the announcer says quad is spawning soon or has spawned. I’ll die my way there, hear it’s spawned announced, take a few seconds to get there and it’s still sitting there with no one around

The Kins posted:I haven't played in a little bit, but can't you skip this part by just hitting ESC? You can, and I'm pretty sure you can do the same to skip through the experience / rewards screen as well. It's still dumb that the game kicks you back to the menu to re-queue though.

The downtime is easily the worst part of the game, it should dump everyone in the map voting screen when the match is over. Better yet just put everyone in warm up mode for 30 seconds while a vote comes up on the side of the screen. Press F1 and F2 to pick the map.

The queue times haven't been bad at all for me recently after the upswing from the last patch, but I still tab out while it searches to browse the internet until I hear the match ready sound. When they get bots in the game it'd be great if they just threw you in a botmatch during matchmaking to warm up.

Wait times for duel are still brutal. Thinking about joining the QC open league but have been struggling to even get to the ten placement matches. Can take 15-20 minutes to find a game in NA.

I don't think their round based and pick system has worked at opening it up to new players, it's still too intimidating to go 1v1 vs seasoned quake players. I wonder if they'll just revert to classic duel to satisfy the people who play it.
