Changes to starting Nailgun, SSG and Tribolt
Safe to assume they're buffs when it comes to the Tribolt and Nailgun, no idea what their plan is for SSG, it's in a good place right now

Aren't mesh hitboxes confirmed for october?

>SSG, it's in a good place right now
Nah it's not much of an improvement over starting SG.

hopefully clutch buff and sorlag/anarki nerfs.

Yeah. That should make the game less taxing on the CPU. Currently, it will register hits against the exact frame of animation of the target. The new way, there will be a fixed "actual hitbox" more or less synced to the current action, but not varying as much. For example, running around as Doomguy might present (to the server at least) the target of a more or less static, standing Doomguy frame which is meant to represent that range of action

No actual word on their size (personally I'm fine with the smaller hitboxes), and the change will probably not actually anything for the hitreg itself, if nothing else is touched re: networking

It sees a lot of use in pro Sac games
>Nah it's not much of an improvement over starting SG.
'Cause that shit is too good, starting SG shouldn't be as close to SSG usefulness as it is

It's in a weird place where it's exactly where it needs to be if it doesn't do 6 damage but it does exactly 6 most of the time.

Sorlag nerf is confirmed. Greater delay between puking and being able to shoot. So if you blind someone with puke they have a greater chance to run away. Should also make puking more risky (i.e. you leave yourself unable to shoot for a little while if you jump the gun and whiff it)

Also, does anyone suspect there's some sort of issue with damage calculation for Doomguy? Visor has the same stack but seems to die much easier. Doomguy seems to take Scalebearer-tier punishment to go down, sometimes seemingly out of the spawn. There's got to be something going on, I've noticed Doomguy taking what felt like too much damage to die literally dozens of times now, and he's 1250/50, same as Visor. Also same hitbox size.

>1250/50
Ooops, that's Sorlag. Meant 120/50

Downloading lawbreakers now, whats our opinion on it?

FRANCHISE

Is there a more useless piece of shit?

Yeah I know its ded but so is every other arena shooter
Is it fun?

I played for five minutes. I say played, I really meant sat in a queue for five minutes, got bored, and uninstalled.

I can not comprehend how they were able to make character designs so ugly and uninteresting.

Don't talk shit about SPEEDYBOY

He'd be the second best heavy if he wasn't so easy to hit

Not really, the movement feels awkward and most characters are boring.

As someone who follows all the devs/community shit here's what i got:

>New Ithagnal (Acid&Metal) themed Duel only map.
>tribolt, starting nailgun, super shotgun changes (nailgun is probably damage increase to 12, rumored but not confirmed)
>slash,anarki,nyx hitbox changes
>sorlag's spit gets a proper delay on firing weapons until the spit is completely finished
>changes to clutch, drill passive removed, 'something else' coming
>map bugs getting fixed, Church timers fixed
>new maps added into MM rotation in SAC
>lootbox drops adjusted for reliquary only, duplicate runes and shaders removed from all boxes.
>no changes to rocket registration
>no changes to the spawn system (yet), but this is a very hot topic between pro players and devs.
That's all I know about

>sitting waiting for a match
>think to myself 'hey wouldn't it be funny if I played with sqztoy'
>'nah they play Texas or something, this is Virginia'
>next match, other team has sqztoy
>try to not spill spaghetti
>start lagging
>internet fucking outright dies
>mfw I didn't even get to ask her to sit on my face
>mfw I have no face because I'm fucking phoneposting

Youre proper trash, my man. Euro(not russian) quakegirls are cuter anyway.

>>try not to spill spaghetti
>>start lagging
did you start farting at some point

>>sorlag's spit gets a proper delay on firing weapons until the spit is completely finished
>>lootbox drops adjusted for reliquary only, duplicate runes and shaders removed from all boxes.

These are really the ones from this list that I care about. Sorlag getting to spit for free while firing is so fundamentally stupid I don't even understand. Especially when it makes the opponent miss too.

>sorlag nerf that only affects the very top part of the playerbase
gee thanks gee
This won't stop idiots with shit aim from dying to sorlag because not being able to do enough dps to kill her before they die to the shitty spit dps.
Trash players will still complain about anarki as well because no matter how solid his hitbox is, retards with 25% LG will never kill anarki players.

>There's people in this thread, right now, defending Anarkid Champions: LG Only Edition

Your crutches are gonna get nerfed and you'll be forgotten

>I've a crush on Nirah
t. Sqztoy
just give up user, she only likes attention whores

Jokes on you I play sorlag and the delay on the spit is a much welcome change. Finally idiots can't just abuse it to kill my sorlag. As for the squishies getting nerfed, thank the lord. I'm already abusing the Sorlag Galena meta.

>no changes to rocket registration
If this happens I think i'm done. I can barely deal with stepping in fuck huge spit puddles for free 50 damage, but these rockets are going to decide how fast this game dies.

Cancer=removed

Just git gud

>trying to rail sorlag
>keep missing as her already ridiculously thin waist flops about over her hips as she adads
I know I need to git gud but just about all the other champions I'm gud enough to consistently rail just not her an anarki

Stop playing crutch characters.

>all the other champions I'm gud enough to consistently rail just not her an anarki

They're not even remotely in the same ballpark of "difficulty to hit". I can aimbot LG Sorlag with my eyes closed

Only Clutch is easier to rail than lizer. Literally git gud

visor has no mobility in a direct confrontation
you're missing a lot of shots on doomguy because he double jumps everywhere like a marble on a honeymoon mattress

>LG
>user was talking about rail
that adada animation on sorlag is fucking retarded it could easily counted as a passive ability considering how much shit misses against him

Sorlag is very easy to rail. Only Clutch is easier.

t. aimlet who basically only lands multiple consecutive rails on heavies

>BTFOing niggerki with a RG

That's a true way to play Visor

>you're missing a lot of shots on doomguy
Not even. He often tanks a lot of damage just strafing around e.g. in a LG fight

I think his armor might decay slowly, like it does for heavies, despite him being a medium. Could be a bug or even a hidden feature, meant to represent the fact he has full body armor

nope, both visor's and doomguy's armor and hp decays at a rate of 1 per second
fuckin hell even bj is considered a medium despite having a light tier stack

Light/medium/heavy seems based primarily on hitbox size, then acceleration/top speed. Not stack

I mean, Clutch's stack is sad and he's supposed to be a heavy. What use is all that potential armor if you have Ranger's HP

Clutch was 150/100 before right?
This is the problem with champions, its difficult to balance for all gamemodes
Clutch was op in duel/sac but was bad in dm
Now hes ok in some modes and fucked in others
Honestly I think way more ppl would play him if he had a dedicated dodge button instead of double tap

Why does autismtoy move around in her chair like a retard when playing?

>when a Sorlag has the most kills AND deaths in the match

>can't rail the second largest champion in the game
Not sure if "sorlag is op" baitpost or genuinely trash player whose very first fps game is this.
You know that ADADAD generally considered a counter to rail and lg.
On every champ. You will miss just as much rail against adad ranger as sorlag, pal.
Just holes in hitbox, so lg does less damage to him and rails go through. Rockets are the best against doomfag
Actually overstack decay rate is the de facto way to tell which class the champ belongs to

then how come i can rail other champions no problem except adarki,nyx,sorlag and slash?
yes even ranger is easy to rail compared to those listed above
>inb4 git gud

Different players behind them.
Sorlag,anarki and slash are favored by players who have good movement mechanics(since they REQUIRE that to be played at a good level), and that also includes dodging shots.
(Nyx is just fucked)
Also different days you won't play 100% consistent. Maybe you're a bit tired on certain days, you automatically look for something else to blame. Basic reaction.

I see,i wonder what will my accuracy will become after the hitbox changes.

she gets pretty sweaty after a while and probably has to let out a few quiet farts

It will improve by 2% on LG and 10% on rail.
That's about it.
One patch won't magically make you better at the game, and shitposting an complaining even more so.
This isn't overwatch where if people whine about something it gets nerfed, and then the people whose "main" got nerfed want other shit nerfed, ending up in a cycle of complaining and flaming. Great game design.

Hitbox change != netcode change. We already have all but confirmation dud rockets won't be fixed for the next patch

It will probably remain as infuriating to deal with Anarki, even if his hitbox is a little wider

>thinks he will improve just because they change some minor shit about 3/11 champions
>thinks its the game that's holding him back from being decent instead of trash.
git gud

>talking about nerfs when we were talking about technical things
really?was that necessary?of course not but you had to mention it for no fucking reason

I'm just saying, without deep networking revamps, whatever you're hitting that's not registering will keep on not doing so

I play a lot of Sac, and use cheeky SNG close up strats against heavies and I often see the nails dud on hit. They're literally vanishing when they reach them, so I know I'm not missing. I have no idea what "new hitboxes" can do about that

>all these I'm good but Netcode and hitboxes hold me back posts
Ranked can't come sooner.
Fucking bronze trash

Ok so I started playing quake champs and I'm liking it but for some reason I cant seem to win 1v1s I just keep losing my aim isnt terrible because I can hit them the problem for me is that they dont seem to die I keep my cursor on them with a lighting gun, get 2 directs with a rocket, or even 2 -3 hits with a railgun but no one seems to go down what am I doing wrong? Also I have a few questions,
1. How do I get new champions without having to throw sheckles
2. What can I do with my favor
3. is there a mode that doesnt have bullshit abilities that instant kill you? I swear 70% of my deaths are from some faggot pressing their get out of jail free card/instakill button

I was actually surprised you didnt ragequit.
I have played together with you or against you in public games and you ragequitted a lot of them.
You are indeed pathetic.

I can't even fall for your lazy b8 because

1)Devs have thoroughly acknowledge networking issues
2)I played the shit out of QL and KNOW multiplayer Quake can be much more reliable than this

>mfw shooting a clutch with the railgun over and over

>How do I get new champions without having to throw sheckles
Get lucky opening backpacks, chests or reliquaries. Or rent them for 24h with favor

>What can I do with my favor
Buy backpacks, rent champs

>os there a mode that doesnt have bullshit abilities that instant kill you? I swear 70% of my deaths are from some faggot pressing their get out of jail free card/instakill button
No but one day it might

Why did you censor your hit %

Aimlet?

it was high, high enough that people here would assumed that I used an aimbot.

It's an easy "Impressive" daily challenge if the other team has a Clutch. Get them all done in one go

>1 by spending favor on them and unlock for 24 hrs, or unboxing them from the 2 better lootboxes
>2 unlocking champs for 24 hours or buying backpacks for runes
>3 no. The only bullshit instakill ability is ranger's dire orb. Every other one that you die to is usually your fault. If you die in 1v1 it's your fault. If you die in TDM it's still your fault. Dying in FFA does really matter so that's just being unlucky.
This game is like dark souls. You keep dying and dying until you give up or git gud.

You're deluded. And why censor champ too?

Also, you got 4 quads, or 4 quad/prot if it was Sac. Your score is nothing to brag about

>You keep dying and dying until you give up or git gud.
or you just go to reddit/4chin and complain about the shitty netcode/hitbox instead of trying to get better because you probably havent played afps in a decade or you never played as good as you think you did.
there is also that.

fug

>hiding name
Get out of my board
You're filth.
Gurkfag, DM6fag, Nirfag are all better than you because atleast they take their autism on themselves and aren't pussyfags

Why do you hide your name Toki?
Why do you hide the fact that you quit the next game you played against me after getting trashed because the game wasn't 4x3 vs level 2 guy who had 4-26 score?

Worthless Anarki shitter.

I'm a BR and literally don't know who Toki is other than the HnK character

Why would you possibly think I'd be some random guy who played you

At least you get weapon skins

>devs admit there are both netcode and hitbox issues
>"gut gud lmao stop being so bad"
fuck this general fuck this game

I'm jelly

Nigga I can rail slash, nyx etc the only two that are difficult cause of sorlag cause there's legit no meat at her centre of mass and anarki cause lmao anarki

The fact that id themselves admit these issues while you deny them is straight retarded

>Can only get champs from lootboxes or renting them

Thats dumb, would you recommend using favor to open boxes or is it worth renting champs

>Trying to argue with Nigrah
What ever we say wont make her change her mind, even proplayers that say Sorlag and Anarki are op, she considers retarded

Buy the champions pack you autist

I fell for the champions pack meme, so I wouldn't know. But getting champs isn't that common. I have over 100h played and only got 2 (they become shards if you already have them)

You could always become a Ranger specialist. He's a good hero, used by pros in all modes

>You're deluded. And why censor champ too?
>
>Also, you got 4 quads, or 4 quad/prot if it was Sac. Your score is nothing to brag about

He's ashamed to admit that he played Anarki and farmed that poor level 2 guy with 4-26 score in a 4x3 match.
And he also quit the next game he's got matched against me after getting trashed hard.

Funny that there's some stalking creep who's stalking me in Quake and saves screenshots with me. Not the first time.

>carnage
>pro
burgeranon, you're dumb.
how about duel?

What about rapha, dahang, tox, fazz etc?
Guess those guys are retarded as well then

>americans
>relevant
pick one.
also proof that the swedeboys complained about sorlag?
i know you're baiting me but i love it

Just ask them when they are streaming, I wont sit here and look up vods for you.

>here's my theory
>but I won't prove it for you lazy fuck
you're a special one aintcha

Dead game.
Dead general.

>sorlag op
true if you're too trash to aim.

oh the irony

reminder that leaving a tdm game if you're like 1/10 is good for your team because the enemy has one less body to feed on

thanks for (You)
i'll feed it to my sorlag

reminder that getting upset at team members in a super casual game like quake champions matchmade tdm is literally league of legends tier pathetic
