why is reflex balance so shit why is the LG a wet noodle and why are rockets only good with directs
Jaxson Hill
>Thread died again. New stuff when?
Robert Martinez
QC release will surely revitalize this place, right?
Gavin Jackson
so when diabotical flops, and you realize that the afps dream is dead, what genre are you going back to?
Leo Lewis
Hopefully we get a big patch soon this is becoming sad
Jaxson Hughes
quake 2 and cpma while i play the occasional rpg and strategy game
Easton Lopez
It really depends on what they do with it. id isn't shilling very well and can't get their shit together balance wise. The hope is they give it the D44M treatment, they shilled that hard enough and it did pretty well. /v/ still shitposts about it and had they actually got snapmap right and made combat less linear I would be playing .WADs on it right now. But the best we get is a level or two.
Kevin Diaz
Kek meant to reply to
Tyler White
One can only hope. I wish they held off on this whole tournament stuff until the game was actually done, but with Quakecon around the corner I guess they felt forced.
Ryder Baker
Sure, but it's probably good they aren't shilling it yet. They should wait till they get everything ironed out and some more content
Colton Watson
It is very similar to what Capcom did with SFV, rather than wait for the game to be complete they forced it out so they could make it in time for EVO.
They should've at least had a cinematic trailer at E3 instead we got BJ and an announcement that id has poured 1mil into a prizepool but not netcode.
Ryder Smith
The more I think about QC the more it feels like id-thesda trying to cash in on the e-sports hype using an existing IP. I always feared that might be the case, maybe it's just impatience.
Benjamin Kelly
Ranger is the worst champion.
There I said it.
Blake Watson
this OP was higher quality 2bh
Brandon Jackson
no
Luke Davis
I suppose next your going to say: 'Slash is best girl'?
Matthew Ross
No, that title is reserved for Nyx
Angel Lopez
Slash is be-NANI?!?

Jaxon Parker
Other players >literally untouchable gods >even if you do hit them, they have already grabbed every health and armor pickup and don't die >kills you in 1 second no matter how much health you have or what weapon they're using
Me >die instantly whenever another player sees me >tries to dodge but just dodges right into their rockets every time >get the health and armor upgrades but still die instantly somehow
How the fuck do I git gud? How the fuck do people deal so much damage? How come whenever I try to kill a scalebearer they don't die even after multiple direct rockets, but I die as scalebearer nearly instantly when someone shoots at me? HELP

just always try to maximize your chances in the fights, this means getting stacked on hp/ap, getting necessary weapons for different situations, having good position / escape routes;
to do all of that efficiently you gotta be fast
when it comes to the fight itself, generally lg works the best against tanks, it melts them really fast and is easy to track with on the big hitbox, if your aim is good you can also switch to supershotgun/rail/rocket to finish them off when they're low; rocket launcher is real fucken iffy right now but good for spam and splash damage (be sure your rocket placement is also good and you're actively aiming with it and not spraying'n'praying); railgun only if you have cover, are far away or to finish someone off;
to not get killed by things get as much of a stack you can and don't jump when dodging (unless you're jumping away from rockets or above them), this makes you very easy to track/hit
you said you dodge right into rockets but how can that happen if you dodge depending on where the rocket is going?
you didn't really give that much info but i think you should focus on going fast, escaping bad fights and recovering quickly after them
that being said tdm can be absolutely retarded a lot of the time, especially with the spawns and your team, i topscore among both teams almost every match but still lose due to a 1 - 28 nyx on my team, so don't worry about it - think of why you died at that moment and what you could do differently
Connor Cook
QC having so many issues currently makes it hard. But to answer your question: keep playing, watch guides in the OP, finally I personally enjoy Rapha's stream and he explains things pretty well. Maybe also check out previous Quake championships specifically Q3 ones casters explain shit pretty well.
Noah Lee
Listen this slashfag, our slashfag spends 12+ hours a day on QC
Andrew Price
it's 4 am and i dont know if this is sarcasm or not
but slash is bae
Levi Barnes
No was honestly a compliment, despite your love for second best girl
Jayden Miller

Kayden Green
dont die /arena/
galena is best girl
Joshua Smith
Galena has waifu-fags interesting
Josiah Mitchell
What's so interesting about that? Practically every female character that exists in any popular media ever has waifu-fags for 'em, even the most bizarre of waifus. Galena is still somewhat surface-level if you put her in context of all that's out there.
Caleb Martin
>dodging into rockets you're being read like a book how about you do the opposite of what you think you should do next time, or just stop thinking
the game isnt much more complicated than >get big pickup >get rocket, lg, and rail asap >dont die
the more you play the better you'll get at keeping track of enemy stack and predicting movement. that's something you cant learn out of game. (but you can learn how to rotate around a map for pickups and control their timers which is big plus)
and the rest is aiming
Jack Perez
I can totally understand how she can have waifu-fags I just didn't know we had any here.
Kayden Miller
>the rest is aiming My aim with stuff like the rail gun is pretty decent I think(over 50% acc. every match), but I feel like I suck ass at leading with rockets. Also is the tribolter considered a shit weapon? I can barely hit anything with it.
Camden Cruz
What's her name /arena/ the first AFPS that took your Arena-shooter virginity? For me it was Doom2
Mostly played Q2 on N64 though
William Rivera
There is no art of Galena. That's why you are suprised.
Lucas Hill
Look for good players w/ time, ask them to duel you an tell you what mistakes you're making If you're socially retarded, just try PMing random ppl in quake discords The worst you can get is a "nah"
Angel Gomez

Nolan Green

Jaxon Richardson
There is scarce art of any Quake Champs overall, not just for Waifu purposes. >add patreon to OP >add poll to see which champ deserves lewds most >Ranger wins
Gavin Lopez
>QUAD DAMAGE >suddenly no enemies anywhere >literally running everywhere around the map looking for niggers to kill and barely see anyone >not even near the big armor/health pickups why does this always happen to me
Levi Scott
You at the very least denied enemy team Quad which is huge.
Kevin Watson
Duel in another game with a proper system and your skills will increase tenfold over time with practice.
tribolt is pretty shit really needs a buff is funny to see pros actively avoid even picking it up on sarnath anyway it's a spam weapon, you arent really meant to hit things. supposed to spam it into a path to discourage people from passing through. it's just shit at that job because it does so little damage and has such small AOE
anyway with rockets that's prediction. we cant teach you how to hit rockets, you need to play more and learn how people generally move. you're probably using them too far out though at range you're just supposed to spam them into chokepoints. wish my team would do that once in a fucking while. DM would be best mode if it was smaller maps and fewer people. this isnt overwatch l2p. nyx is just a fly on the wall
Dylan Baker
>DM would be best mode if it was smaller maps and fewer people. wish they would just use duel maps with 4 people for finding matches faster
Leo Rivera
It needs to do something else. It's just a worse RL right now. It needs a larger blast with even stronger knockback. FFA needs a "6p, 8p, 10p" and TDM needs "2v2, 4v4, 5v5" queue
Justin Bell
I'm mostly bitching about the initial leader is impossible to catch up to, and how bad spawns are. few people reduces bad spawns, and smaller maps makes map control easier to upset.
Nicholas Brooks
No problems fragging what is literally the worsr character ever conceived in relation to Quake, I just wanted to predict the mindset of the millennial kikes who'll play this on release for like 20 minutes before returning to Overdiversity.
Blake Stewart
I joied late into an FFA with ZSX and Xhep both at 16 frags already, i managed to snag 2nd place in the end, tailing behind ZSX's 47 by 2 frags.
It's definitely possible to make up a 15 frag lead in like 6 minutes.
Jaxson Morris
>initial leader is impossible to catch up maybe if you join the game 5 minutes in yea otherwise just git gud
Chase Peterson
that's the problem, it usually does toss you in 5 minutes in am I expected to make up a 20-30 frag diff in 5 minutes? ive never been dropped into a DM that just started
Adrian Ward
>nyx true, I'm losing 1v1 lol bye >anarki haha hope you like killing me again eat my balls bro >clutch LOL FREE RAILS LMAO >scalebearer your a or d had better work >bj how about +50% damage because eat shit I'm balanced? >sorlag blaaaaaargh hope you enjoy 110 damage aoe lmao >ranger hope you're dumb enough to step into my teleport / I need to actually survive until it arrives into a safe spot >galena PLEASE BE A RETARD >Visor I can see you while seeing you
Kevin Hernandez
nyx and clutch are the only two i take particular issue with, anarki is annoying but nyx and cluctch's abilities are the kind of gay moba-tier shit I wish would stay out of this game
Owen Cook
I'm fucking done with TDM it's always me one decent guy and 2 bricks who leave, the enemy team are clones of Cooller naturally and I get pounded into the ground.
Easton Rivera
trips and my oc confirm I'm just waiting for a big patch the moba argument unravels at seams when slowdown, silence and stun get mentioned qc has none of these, but I gotta admit, athena's grappling hook makes me worry
Daniel Harris
How are they moba tier though?
Jaxon Ross
theyre gay and stupid and i dont like them
invulnerability is gay
Noah Rogers
anybody need a meme quakeified?
Charles Allen
t.mad & bad shambler that tried to refuse ranger's quad shaft
Asher Ross
nah, ranger would be always be second place for questionable stuff while top vote cycles all other characters
Gavin Martinez
anything you can get your hands on that could be even vaguely relevant
Elijah Adams
if you read 'moba' as 'complete horeshit', invulnerability on demand certainly is
i'd fight anarki over nyx any day making it so you can't shoot at anyone in a game that is nothing but shooting dudes is mental deficiency levels of stupid
make it standard invis + maybe scale's 50% dmg resist / speed boost not 3 powerups rolled into one holy shit
Christian Green
>visor ATTENTION, I AM ABOUT TO GET THE DROP ON YOU
Juan Young
I meant in a 1v1 when you can both see each other and are actively fighting Visor is the most fair because his ability doesn't do shit
James Foster

We need some kind of concern image this one being from dark souls, can't think of a good base image for Quake
Wyatt Bell
Uriel from Q3A maybe?
Colton Butler
>try to practice movement >only server you get for singleplayer is 364 ping epic game id gj
Aiden Sanchez
You could try and get Defrag if you have base Q3, works pretty well for movement practice.
Easton Parker
Uriel ~ would have a special movement " Glide "
Hold space to stay aloft when airborne and glide where you want to go.
active ability? no idea something to do with stone like a stone gargoyle or statue form something defensive rather than offensive
he would likley be a heavy class character.
Jack Hernandez
lmao not even the same thing
Josiah Sullivan
runs like garbage what the fuck is even the point of quake champions
Jayden King
Defrag has VQ3 movement which is what most champs in QC use.
Liam Mitchell
...
Logan Collins
literally doesnt matter because nobody needs to practice vq3 movement
Connor Turner

Logan Lewis
jesus christ you have terrible taste in armor shaders just because you got it doesn't mean you should use it most of them look terrible
Nicholas Flores
you know what I just realized there are no SFM models of Q3 characters. Someone fix this.

game lags like a piece of shit 20 ping feels like 200 get hit by something oops you're over here now get hit by things that dont hit you so you can teleport 50 yards backwards and so that you can miss every single jump because game decides to go backwards in technology
Jonathan Jenkins
holy fuck he looks old here also >Dire Orb - windows 95 screensaver
Bentley Long
I think part of Ranger's joke is that he looks like a middle aged man who is really good at fragging things. Making him more or less THE Quake-Dad.
Brody Davis

I remember watching a documentary about the development of Halo, where the Devs said they based character faces off of fellow Devs. I wonder who on earth at id has lips like these if that tactic is still used.
Zachary Morales
Straight outta ID Tech, crazy motherfucker named Doom Guy From the gang called Protagonists With Attitudes When I'm called off, I got a sawed off Squeeze the trigger, and bodies are hauled off You too, boy, if ya fuck with me The Devs are gonna hafta come and get me Off yo ass, that's how I'm goin out For the punk motherfuckers that's showin out Cacodemons start to mumble, they wanna rumble Mix em and cook em in a pot like gumbo Goin off on a motherfucker like that With a gat that's pointed at yo ass So give it up smooth Ain't no tellin when I'm down for a jack move Here's a murder rap to keep yo dancin With a crime record like Charles Manson Super Shotgun is the tool Don't make me act the motherfuckin fool Me you can go toe to toe, no maybe I'm knockin Cacodemons out tha lock box, daily Yo weekly, monthly and yearly Until them dumb motherfuckers see clearly That I'm down with the capital H-E-L Boy you can't fuck with me So when I'm in your neighborhood, you better duck Cause Doom Guy is crazy as fuck As I leave, believe I'm stompin But when I come back, boy, I'm comin straight outta ID Tech
someone build on this or make another verse with Ranger in it.
Dominic Lopez
I'll try, someone else feel free to try. I'm not all that good at 'Expressing myself with my full capability'
Thomas Sullivan
Yo, Ranger! (Whassup?) Tell 'em where you from!
Straight outta ID Tech, another crazy ass nigga More shamblers I smoke, yo, my rep gets bigger I'm a bad motherfucker, and you know this But the pussy-ass shamblers won't show this But I don't give a fuck, I'ma make my snaps If not from the records, from fragging or gibs Just like killing, the definition is fragging And when I'm legally armed it's called packing Shoot a scrag in a minute I find a good piece of pussy and go up in it So if you're at a show in the front row I'ma call you a bitch or dirty-ass ho You'll probably get mad like a bitch is supposed to But that shows me, slut, you're composed to A crazy motherfucker from the slipgate Attitude legit, ‘cause I'm tearing up shit MC Ranger controls the automatic For any dumb shambler that starts static Not the right hand, ‘cause I'm the hand itself Every time I pull an railgun off the shelf The security is maximum, and that's a law R-A-N-G-E-R spells Ranger, but I'm raw See, ‘cause I'm the motherfucking villain The definition is clear, you're the witness of a fraggin' That's taking place without a clue And once you're on the scope, your ass is through Look, you might take it as a trip But a nigga like Ranger is on a gangsta tip Straight outta ID Tech
