I have Awesomenauts. It's a pretty fun game. If I had people to play with I actually might play.

Awsomenauts has been in like every bundle too so everyone should own it.

I hear it's a LOT better then most mobas. Are there a bunch of unlocks or can you pretty much go in cold?

They must have been some real bad bundles because I skipped all the ones with Awesomenauts.

main thing to know is that bunnyhopping is kinda closer to goldsrc games than quake 3, ie you need to do a big swoop with your mouse while you jump to gain initial speed and you need to let go of +forward and hold down a strafe key to gain momentum.

I never played those either but yea I know how Quake 1 jumping works kinda. I'm not good at it since I've only played Quake 1 once but w/e. Isn't there other poo poo like having binds that swap to guns to shoot and then go back to axe when you aren't shooting so you don't drop ammo or whatever.

thats only for tryhard tdm, since weapons have 30 second respawns and dropping a rocket launcher to the enemy team is the worst thing you can possibly do. in ffa and poo poo who cares, weapons have a respawn time of 0 seconds. if you have a 5 button mouse tho i suggest you make weapon fire scripts so that each button of your mouse swaps to and fires a different weapon since weapon switching is instant

Can you not bind M1 to +forward and M2 to jump.

Wormskull
Aug 23, 2009

I'm just kidding although can you do M2 to jump because the nquake installer didn't have it as a option.

Event has been set for 8 PM EST. Get nquake installed and setup so you'll be ready to go for some sweet deathly action like it was 1996.

Do you have an idea when you guys will finish because I might not be home right at eight but I still want to play

Kid, don't threaten me. There are worse things than death, and uh, I can do all of them.

the serious sam playthroughs went 2-3 hours, probably depends on how long before people get bored

just jump on and check

Well at least when you do move and manage not to be instantly killed its fairly fast. Some of the moving around is a little irritating on like stairs and poo poo but I'm just used to QL and it's how Q1 was I guess.

Other stuff probably due to old age like the controls and the feedback I don't like much either. I'm too much of a newbie in the FPS world.
