Oh, characters can drop from boxes? Maybe I should hold off blowing all my green coins then. Game's fun in any case! Tried out Doomguy when he was free and punching people to death was great.

I also liked Doomguy a lot but I just couldn't get used to the double jump in Quake. It was like trying to ride one of bicycles with the backward steering wheel.

What exactly caused this surge in popularity? I've seen patches that fix netcode for other games in the past and it didn't lead to a surge in playercounts like this at all...

Checked out game because of the free promo. Sure has heck feels like quake. Kinda tempted to buy the early access back so I don't have to worry about unlocking the other champs but also wondering if I'll even end up using half of them.

When did they change all the armour and health values to be the same across the board? Last time I played certain characters were tankier than others.

They did that a couple times actually, especially with Clutch. He got a lot of tweaking after every patch. Right now, he's great. I do like how they super charged health/armor for each character indavidually while keeping their default values. Helps a lot getting things going and not die immediately from one rocket. Speaking of rockets, both rockets and lighning rays got the right sort of tweaking to keep every gun viable. Couple patches back people didn't even want to use tri-bolt even if their life depended on it. That thing was uber trash.

Yeah, I actually got a lot of tri-bolt kills in my games today. Amazing. The weapon went from useless to great.

Said gently caress it and threw my money away. Doomguy is pretty rad, did a solo match and made someone complain in chat. I guess I can spend all my favor on backpacks now?

Wait, you guys got to try all of them? Months ago I got a Steam key for the pre-F2P version from Humble Monthly that only included Blowjobovitz and Quake Guy. My roster options didn't expand this weekend except for getting Scale-bear-guy for playing the tutorial.

Looking forward to CTF, as I think having the different characters will make for some interesting strategies and plays.

I have picked up this game thanks to the free giveaway and am very much enjoying shooting people's feet with rockets while bhopping at them. Look forward to more exciting updates when I learn how to aim with the railgun.

There was definitely some cool stuff when sacrifice was still alive. You would see scalebearer and doomguy on offensive a lot capping the soul because of their active ability. Lot's of slash and galena's on defense. I miss it and can't wait for a real team mode to return!

Important update: I'm still poo poo with the railgun and I think I probably will be for the rest of time. Game's still fun though! I got second place in a deathmatch!

Protip: vote corrupted keep during the map vote because it doesn't have the rail gun. You can't be poo poo with a gun that doesn't exist right?

I'm loving this game way more than the UT alpha so far. Honestly I could keep playing ranger forever, telefragging people is fuckin awesome. I've had some good games too, there must be a bunch of arena virgins playing because I'm actually winning.

I am loving this game too, but I am concerned that it is too thin to hold my interest for long. It needs more modes for sure. Is there a roadmap I can read somewhere? Do you know when to expect CTF?

I'd be surprised if QuakeCon in August didn't at least give a first look at CTF. Athena will probably be released alongside it, since her power is a big reference to Quake 2 CTF. If they're teasing Death Knight now, he'll probably be released reasonably soon?

My red smear at the bottom of the Sunday night scoreboard already misses the influx of players from the past few days. Steam says there's 10 hours left on the free weekend, but it seems to be dropping back down to people unlike me who can actually track targets constantly. Makes me cry: "Bads, join me at the bottom so we can accidentally kill each other!"

IG with abilities feels a bit goofy. I got a few nice streaks with Doom guy but I think that was mostly because I was playing with people who couldn't aim well. I got stomped pretty hard a match later where I became the person who couldn't aim. They should add the heretic guy (Covus) and make tome of power his ability.

Oxyclean posted:They should add the heretic guy (Covus) and make tome of power his ability. As cool as that would be, Heretic and Hexen were developed by Raven Software (which was later acquired by Activision). Commander Keen occasionally gets mentioned in rumors but I don't really want to imagine how badly they would butcher his look with all the alternative costumes.

Galena is not-explicitly Heretic-based. So probably not going to see any characters from those games but there might be more like her.

# ? Jun 18, 2018 18:44 |

Dang, figured id might have the rights but according to wikipedia it sounds like they're basically contested by Activison and neither company can actually do anything with them. Just give me the Tome of Power as a powerup or ability.

As long as they add the only character that matters (Orbb), I'm happy.
