Spent an entire day playing as crusader chick.... partly because I got some of her epic gear out of a random box and partly because I've never seen anybody play her... she's not "bad"? I only bothered with sacrifice but she's pretty OK, and her heal is often an "I get full health now gently caress you" button if you are alone. Dunno, but I'm rotating between her and Visor now, though I have a soft spot for the Lizard... and I will totally spend real monies so I can wear an egg while I vomit on people. EDIT- Also this game is the first one that's made me ditch the high speed Artisan Hayate OSU pad and go back to a Steelseries QCK+ to make my shots, which is certainly something. It's also pointed out to me just how loving horrible at aim, movement, and other core skills things like Overwatch make you. There is shoot mans and then there is Quake.

air- posted:Well yeah, if you're in a party. I near exclusively play TDM and I was queueing alone all morning. Same former teammates and players on the enemy team would rotate back and forth, so matches were even more hilariously one sided. You quit to early. We didn't have this problem, me and EnteranceJew had multiple great TDM and Sacrifice matches. Both of us had on fire moments with rail and in general poo poo went well. poo poo our last three Sacrifice games were loving epic.

Also if you aren't on discord get on it. Easy to pick up a partner for games, and we've had a few rotating 3/4 stacks. Game is much more fun when you can laugh at your own failures, have multiple people timing the quad, and screaming and yelling when someone runs the wrong way with the soul.

waters!!!!

Knifegrab posted:So I just started the beta, does it always take a calendar year to find a game? Is there really so few people playing? No, not really. There are a few tricks though. Some regions are more active than others and some data centers are hopping and others are down. Unless you are in a really active one (I'm on VA and the wait times aren't bad) check more than one data center and it will search multiples for a match. Things are "slower" because of the huge tournament going on, again though impact of this is by region. You can bypass all of this by playing custom matches. As soon as the map ends the owner just loads the next map. If you open the global chat and spam looking for game someone will pick you up. Just be aware every now and then you get someone who wants to play sacrifice only. As stated, get on discord. If you already have your team there that's less searching it has to do. That all said the Bethesda client is loving garbage and this needs to be moved to Steam asap.

Social Animal posted:I'm in Europe right now and have no problems finding a game. Not going to lie I'm a little worried when I move back to NA that my Quake options will suck. I'm USA East. Even with just the VA data center checked (I ping 8-16 to this one) it takes roughly 2-4 mins to search a match. I get pick up games through the chat, or some high level players who are on my friends list in their discord on the regular and you can get 5-6 games in a row with no wait times other than swapping people in and out if someone has to go. More people should really idle in discord. If you have 4+ people it's easy just to grab people off the global chat and play that way. @Love, where's that screen shot, from before the tenseko incident!

Nfcknblvbl posted:I tried this game over the weekend, only deathmatch in US East, Every game was Q3DM6, the abilities are meh. Sounds like you had a bad group. DM6 and Sarnath are by far the best and most popular maps. Burial chamber is very rail heavy so if you see heavy voting for this you can be sure the other team is good at it's rails. It's way too easy to lock down and then pummel someone into the ground. Lockbox is fun, but it doesn't run well for many people and the "gimmicks" aka the toilet bowl, top tower, trap floor can devolve rapidly as well. The champions gimmicks are really kinda silly. The only problematic one is really the vomit which is spammish and broken. However most of the better players are rocking nx/slash/anarki with the odd ranger and visor. Of those the only obnoxious gimmick is nyx. For the most part this isn't an issue unless you get stuck in a game with a lot of vomit spam (which is worse on DM6 than any other level) or are playing against a nyx that outclasses you can just run away if you manage to light her up.

Right guy now I'd bet that lawbreakers will be higher. It needs more content and to quit resetting everyone. fadam posted:What champions do the pro-Quaker people play? How do they feel about my boy BJ? Anarki and Slash mostly at the higher levels. giogadi posted:Just played my first Duel - I'm shocked that I actually won! Every time I tried to dip my toe into dueling in QL I'd get obliterated, which was fun too. I was assuming that everyone playing QC was already a crusty old pro at QL, but it looks like there's a nice influx of newbies for QC. Also, after playing a match of Duel I don't know if I can go back to DM, it's really addictive. It's not just olds and a lot of the olds are TDM centric and duel changed a lot.

fadam posted:What are people's problems with the current 1v1 mode? The one friend I have who actually plays Quake seems pretty indifferent toward it. The entire pick three option dumbs it down and prevents the crazy sort of games you used to have. On the other hand it prevents turbo stomps of new players.

Sdoots posted:I want to play this so loving much but apparently the networking issues are even worse now? What the gently caress? The issues got better all through the beta. By the end of it everything was butter for me. No lag, no latency, great hit detection, no complaints at all. Now it's rubber banding, delayed shots, wonky hit detection all over the place. I'd give it a week or so because they did sort the beta out with time.

If you were in the beta you are in this however you got your stats and loot wiped and lost all characters but Ranger. I've got a pretty large friends list and I saw about three of them online. I'd give it a bit more time.

They need to get the netcode back to where it was before this prerelease, use Quakecon to get some hype out, and then open the F2P to non beta players after.
