I like how he says the hero shooter has more depth but all of them have small skill ceilings. I think the hero shooter gives the impression of depth just because of all the different abilities and ultimates. Even if you add this champion selection on top of the quake formula it doesn't add much depth.

If anything it removes some.

Adding 100 figures to rock, paper, scissors would make it deep.
!?!?

No doubt

Am still waiting for the minimum specs required so i can buy a new PC already.....

go with 1070. I guess it's enought

this and skylake you cant miss i think.

I guessed the same but, is the 1060 a good choice ? will it run the newest games on Ultra and high fps ? ( its not that i want to run everything in ultra, am more into gameplay than graphics but i want a gfx that will last years ).

I'm running Doom at 180fps on ultra settings with an i3 4130 (low end cpu from 2013, but strong enough single core) and a 980ti.

Anything similar should be fine for chempions.

You have a CPU-bottleneck with that rig tho.

Yea i know, but only in cpu intensive games would it make such a difference, and from benchmarks I've seen the difference is not so great, if I streamed then yea, much bigger problem.

Better an i3 with 980ti, than an overclocked i5 with a 970, wouldn't you agree?

it's an old system, the gpu was bought secondhand recently to replace a 7850HD, doom fps went from 50 on all low, to 180 on ultra, whatever works works! )

Yeah you've bought clever. I've got a GTX 970 and i7 4790k, its nice for streaming, but I'm heavily GPU-bottlenecked. Can't bring myself to buy a 1080 while the 1080 ti is due out early next year though.

Like GUArd sad go for a gtx 1070.
I just bought one for future Quake 5. Currently playing Doom 4 with it. 120 - 200 fps.
Later on i will buy a Kaby Lake CPU. Currently i have a Xeon X5670.

But what about the 1060 ? and which CPU should i get ?

GTX 1060 6GB should be fine (be careful to take the 6GB version).
I personally would get the i7-6700K or i7-7700K (when it comes out)

If you are specifically buying a new PC for Quake Champions then why rush, buy the best GPU now if you want a better one until it comes out, and buy rest of PC at a later date. Going from your original post you want this thing to last, i'd strongly advise a 1070 as a minimum for GPU, and a decent i5, I think i7 is more than you need unless you plan to stream.

Remember it's the GPU that does the majority of the work when you're gaming, an outdated or lower spec CPU might create a bottleneck, but go read some benchmark test to see how much of a bottleneck, it's not as much as you might think.

Not just for Quake Champions, but a PC that will run QC with full speed, high fps and everything, i kinda need one right now since my laptop might die anytime soon or i got to choose wisely and quickly.

And yes, i do plan to stream @TwitchTV too, playing while streaming at the same time or smth.

Try to take advice from a streamer then, nvc gives great advice ))

justnvc on twitch

well an i7 6700k with ddr4, a good cpu cooler and a gtx 1070/80 should run QC on high fps and be able to stream with no problems. personally i would go with that spec if you're buying now and want it to last

i5-6600 + 16 GB DDR4 + GTX 1060 6 GB / GTX 1070 (depending on your budget) is a solid choice imo.

Depending on how CPU-hungry QC will be, you might go the i7-way, but I think a strong i5 will be just fine.

forums also launched on bethesdanet

quake is king in the timeline that i am posting from

but still in the timeline that i post to

the shadows are still casted heavy onto the games future =]

Veteran pro Fatal1ty was on form, strafe-jumping down a hallway, over a wall and up a jump pad, then scoring a mid-air railgun kill on an opposing player.

It also looks as if character switching will be a big part of the action. In the match, players would switch to Galena before the Quad Damage spawned, because her healing skill helped keep people alive to secure the area. Then, many switched to Anarki as Quad Damage was engaged

oh for fuck's sake

FeelsBadMan

could be the end of quake, any healing character being involved aint right

though I can see why the cucks of the internet would see the appeal

Her healing is more like a health bubble not a targeted one. She places a totem that heals you for like 35 hp when you pass over it from what I have seen. It also explodes when an enemy walks over it...

"

Yes, let's play the same game released from 1999 over and over again. Nah, I would rather play something different in 2016 personally.

Feel free to do so.

Hi q2CTF player :P do you actually play q2 daily ? cause i seen you once and that's it.

You think I use this name lol

You did once lol what other names do you use ?

Icec0rpse and sailormoon.

Haven't been playing much quake lately tho.

"Don't worry it won't be an Overwatch ripoff"

MADNESS

Damn that gif really hits the spot.

Describes my day perfectly

"We want to do the best competitive multiplayer game that we can."

You already did that. Bet that mountain of donuts makes you senile.


"Oh, well, I won a match so it must be OP, so we have to fix that one"

That's why you shouldn't be in a decision making position regarding gameplay.


I can't help feeling that the heritage of the greatest FPS-franchise of all time will be slaughtered mercilessly on the altar of the cluelessly coke-inhaling blizz-kid noobtrain.

GOD, PROVE ME WRONG.

If we make it we can all sit back and laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.

Esr's epitaph?

last time we spoke u were hype af

I'm sure you are not talking about me. These always were my thoughts about it.

Sadly I cannot see this game going places. A few days of excitement, maybe a week and it will probably have the same player numbers as Quake Live does now (max 1k) or less.

The approach is all wrong. Make a good and solid 1v1 as the base game and then you can add to it whatever you want, fool proof model that has always worked and will always work.

in this thread salty 30 year olds complain that their dead game is being remade in an attempt for it to not be so dead :DDDDD

Making it good would help though.

And to not to be our game anymore and to shit on everything we were faithful to for 20 years.


gg

I love Quake as much as the next guy, but we have been beating that dead horse for far too long, we should be very grateful that it lasted as long as it did

that's exactly my point if you want to play something that you loved for 20 years play QL or Q3 or whatever you played during those years.
id is trying to create something similar to Overwatch so that casual players would also be able to play it because in the end they have to make money : )

Then why take the quake name and everything that's been built in the franchise and turn it into a bag of shit? They could've easily named the game "id Champions" or something and everything would be cool. Instead they take Quake and are trying to turn it into something it's not.

Where's that guy from Bethesda that made them redo Doom some years back because it was shit. Didn't he step in because it didn't feel like Doom? Is he on vacation? Why would he speak up about Doom, but let this shit show carry on?

It's sad to see the younger generations become filthy casuals by default, just because they have no other option.

whos fault is that?

The corporations and capitalism in general naturally.

Console FPS-gaming, started with console CoDs.

"“QuakeWorld had a lot of air-control. Air-control then went away in Quake 2, but we had different rocket speeds and knockback. And people play differently. Some people bunny hop, some don’t. We were kind of focused-in on what people do across the different Quake games.”"

Cancelled Quake 4 Champion:

Isn't this what 2gd said his game was meant to do? Add basically every movement set into 1 game so everyone from different niche community can play in 1 game

Its what i have said 10 years ago. What have i said is very close to qc

Its what i have said 10 years ago.

what, that quake should have a built in wallhack? i'm not surprised you said that

hi ...

did u just post QC content without trigger warnings on esr fucks sake guy get with the times

Ear is retarded but it's not that retarded

If that ever happens is quit forever

i think the triggering is quite apparent so i guess this is it for you good bye

You know the human race is ceasing evolution when people need warnings labelled on things that don't involve them.

People need a dose of harden the fuck up.

Whilst people in the 1st world complain about trivial, meaningless things like manspreading, the poor kid from the 3rd world is trudging through rubbish waste that us very priviliged first worlder's ship off to their parts, just so he can get maybe a scrap of rotting food to eat.

This is why you lose faith in humanity.

now im triggered

I sure hope they take something from Quake 2 ( the game that everyone forgot about ) Ranger and air-control from QW, Quake 3 mouvements and champions, but what about Quake 2 ? :/ ( dont make an another The Edge remake which will be shit, like the one in Quake 4 which is NOT a Quake 2 sequel.... )

I'm pretty sure railgun comes from q2, no? Q2 and Q3 are very similar and a lot of things coming from Q3 could be traced back to Q2. What things do you think they could port from Q2 that's not in Q3, hand grenades?

+1 hand grenades.
Loved that network jack of death right between priming a nade and throwing it :)

Speaking about the RG, maybe a more Q2esque implementation : slightly OP damage but with a touch of firing lag.

Or how about that BFG... or the power armor that you toggled and chewed down on your cell ammo...

runes and ctf ... i dig it :)

PCG: So no Nine Inch Nails soundtrack?

Tim Willits: No. Well, we have no immediate plans. But if Trent wants to call us...

how sick would that be u guys?

Who even plays with music?

s_musicvolume 1337

Sonic Mayhem would be sicker.

Why exactly would Trent call them? I would assume it's in the developers best interest to release a good game?

art style looks overdesigned

Rather feels like an UT-ripoff.

natural evolution

hahaha ...


...

” Willits says. “There are some people that strafe-jump everywhere, some people who’re really into air control, and there are some gamers that never strafe jump. They usually die a lot.”

Simply incredible. Quake's main developer candidly admitting they intentionally noobified the game.

They added abilities to the game. How much more needs to be said that to know it's noobified?

Yeah, yeah, I get it. A handful of pros got to play a little at QuakeCon this year and they all swear the abilities don't change the game. Right, I'm sure they had/have enough playtime to really exploit these abilities to the fullest. If QC even lasts 5 years, see how matches are played then. By then people will have thought about and figured out how to turn it into a war of abilities rather than skill.

I put my hopes Quake Champions 3

I put my hopes on Quake Champions Live 2.0, where the project is practically abandoned in 2018 except for a skeleton crew of syncerror and sponge, who attempt to keep the playerbase above 30 introducing such quake essentials as ironsights, minimap, smoke grenades, aim assist, talent trees and NPCs with daily quests.

haha :D that made me laugh

I would totally play quake MMO :<

basically aim-assist should be in quak chemp release cos u cant aim good with ps4/xbox1 gamepad

i would need walk assist too, sometimes its hard to walk in the right direction. game should assist.

To think some people play FPS with a controller on PC :(

The conditioning is real.

releasing game for PC only in 2016 ? lol))) sounds like *business model failure 2.0* right after those ingame ads on walls D: ofc every new game must be xbox1/ps4 mainly, and if there are some money left (10-20$) - ok cryfags here is ur pcport with bad optimisation, 30fps lock and every 5min exe-crashes.

Yes I was very surprised when they announced it was for PC only.
