use the bethesda launcher to install it, then google "qclauncher github" and use that to run the game without the bethesda launcher

boar guy posted:i am an old who quit playing overwatch because of the general toxicity and cant hang in stuff like battlefield but for some reason this one just clicked right away having a relatively high sens is fine for quake because there is huge variability in how fast players can move; in overwatch and battlefield everybody runs at the same speed, there is no real movement etc, just hold down W to run at a fixed rate. there is even an argument to be made for having accel on, if you invest the time to master it clawz plays with crazy high dpi/sens/accel and, well, he does poo poo like this: https://clips.twitch.tv/PatientEnjoyableLettuceNinjaGrumpy

get a 1080p/144hz/1ms TN for games, and a real monitor for everything else
|
# ¿ Aug 23, 2018 20:24 |

144hz requires DVI dual or displayport in general just for the bandwidth. make sure to get the right kind of DVI cable because the naming convention is stupid and backwards. whatever monitor you order will probably come with it though

people who play games on the internet just have a really hard time grasping that their client is 200ms ahead of the rest of the players even with a good ping time. worldstate processing isnt instant, sending data over a network even less so. back in the day, this game synced shots across clients by forcing the client to wait for a server response when firing, containing the position/vector of the projectile, and it played like complete poo poo. now it's extremely lenient; you only need to shoot the 3d model without having to lead your shots by your ping or wait on any delays. sometimes you get railed around a corner or direct hit by a rocket that seemingly missed, but that's just your client being ahead and out of sync with the rest of the game. everybody bitching about it happening to them is benefiting from it too, just in reverse. i highly recommend battlenonsense's videos about this stuff, but also sitting down and programming some of this poo poo for yourself in e.g., python now if you want to see absolutely rotten game networking in action (inaction?) go pick up pubg, or titanfall 2. in the case of the latter, i stopped playing when the playerbase shrank so much that inter-continental matchmaking started being the norm. in that game, high latency players would appear to teleport several feet at a time, as the interpolation completely falls apart - something that quake chumps got right. qc is totally playable with 200+ ping, though you may have a hard time winning LG dps races etc due to how far ahead your client is, but it doesn't become totally unworkable edit: here is a good example of a bunch of idiots blaming the game when the dude clearly misses his shot ndub fucked around with this message at 05:01 on Aug 25, 2018 |

nah, the pickup range on items is much larger than it appears. you don't need to be on the little dais under it at all. the shooter was expecting him to jump straight into the middle of the item, hence where the shot was placed, but the guy grabbing the armor didn't move that far into the item spawn. it's well known that heavy armor is easily railed from those stairs and the lg room through the gap around the portal on that map, he was probably anticipating that and cut his jump short. if you watch the video closely, you can see the visor start to back away from the armor after picking it up. i really think that was a deliberate movement and we don't know if he had piercing sight up to make that kind of risky play work out, but i would say this is a more likely scenario than some kind of one-off networking oddity that has yet to be reproduced in a controlled environment https://gfycat.com/LimpAncientBandicoot edit: the guy grabbing the armor apparently competed at quakecon the other week so yeah this kind of micro strategy totally seems reasonable at that skill level imo ndub fucked around with this message at 08:05 on Aug 25, 2018 |

they already gave it falloff and halved the dot on pts

# ¿ Aug 29, 2018 00:08 |

yeah i feel that they overshot it and all they needed to do was add falloff with a minimum of 20 or 25 per fireball. there will be more iterations on it on the pts before release probably

https://clips.twitch.tv/DreamyVenomousTapirAllenHuhu hook does 75 damage on a direct, you can hit the button again to cut it early and retain your speed (800ish), athena can superjump off stairs/ramps, champ pack owners should be getting test server access some time in the next 24 hours which currently has athena, slipgate mode, but not ctf

it's most of the way to being a counterstrike defuse map, except unlike cs, the gameplay is fun still don't have pts in steam, just in bethesda launcher, and it's pretty buried in there

another pts patch, now hitting jump during grappling hook (on athena) will retain your speed, so you can shoot it and jump out of it very quickly to get going like 800+. hitting the ability button again sends you straight down to the ground with no forward speed, which seems totally useless? overall it plays much better, i was getting a lot of weird network sync issues with it prior to this update. athena is the only light with the movement to warrant having 50 max armor, imo zoom sens is beyond hosed up, it is it's own numerical slider but there is no way to tell what it is multiplying, so if they ship the patch like this, get ready to spend 10 minutes figuring out how much zoom sens you need to have the same overall mouse speed zoomed or unzoomed. my setup is 800 dpi, 2.5 unzoomed, and then 1.58 zoomed or some poo poo and it's still off by a tiny bit. 1.58 of what, exactly? nobody outside of id/saber knows

# ¿ Oct 3, 2018 07:14 |

they patched in the uneven, messed up zoom sens anyway despite feedback telling them it sucks. the new zoom fov slider controls how much you zoom in, with higher values giving less zoom (and less lost peripheral vision), and higher zoom sens controlling how fast you turn while zoomed. there's no formulaic correlation between the two,, and that calc posted on qc reddit today doesn't line up with how my game is working now that the patch is out, so it's probably best to just make a private match or get in the tutorial and spend 10 minutes tweaking it can't help wondering why the pts feedback forum exists, there were several posts about how much this implementation sucks, and iD/saber went ahead with this anyway. it's so easy to fix, too. zoom sens is multiplying some unknown thing, instead of the hipfire sens.

test server next week has a large scale ability balance pass (read: mostly damage nerfs), ctf test server delayed into november, next character has a turret that deals damage (loving why) so forget ever playing instagib again under the current ruleset https://clips.twitch.tv/HonestAdorableWormANELE ndub fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Oct 19, 2018 |

very happy to see that the turret sucks and that bj is getting flushed. it seems like just about all of the abilities suck now (compared to live patch anyway), which is probably net positive overall. hopefully lights become a bit more prolific without adadad anarki completely taking over the game again. they are just quicker and more fun to play than mediums imo

Black ops 4 is littered with chaotic unaimed aoe instakill stuff. It's not really comparable; they are not trying to provide an actual competitive experience in the way that quake is. It's still fun though IMO, just a completely different type of game, despite appearances. In black ops 4 I will pick a character based on what map is coming up and to a lesser degree, what mode, since some abilities are more suited to objective defense, flushing people out of cover, etc. Obviously, in quake, you are picking a character largely for their movement system and stack size and maybe their ability comes into play - outliers like BJ excepted. Contrast that with something like overwatch, where you are essentially just playing a MOBA character where you are your abilities, and your gun is a sideshow. In bo4 and qc you are primarily a gun, and secondarily a cooldown ability or two can't speak to siege in any context other than being a sleep aid
