A place to discuss all of your favorite old-school and modern arena shooters such as Quake Live, Quake Champions, Unreal Tournament, Reflex, etc.
Current Q:C News: Patch released, fixed many gamebreaking issues. Niggerkis and Doomgays are still going rampant. Community Stream featuring Community Managers will be on 11/10/2017 (friday). Content patch will drop after Dreamhack Winter. id devs are probably lurking here on /arena/.

How hard do you guys think Todd is whipping Tim daily over QC
John Morris
>Caleb in Quake Champions One can only dream ;_;
Cooper Barnes
>Warner Bros. Entertainment Never ever. At least Devolver might be willing to whore out Lo Wang
Jaxon Hernandez
As rad as this is I would rather see these guys come up with something new.
Sebastian James
todd shoves out shit all the time so probably not at all
Ryan Johnson
His shit sells like crazy, though.
Luke Garcia
If that were ever to happen then he would definitely need an old wang skin. Wasn't really fan of either of those new games, especially shadow "borderlands" warrior 2.
Connor Cruz
Easy. Reboot is the default, classic is the lore skin
David Long
Why would they bother with a failure of a game like QC I didn't like SW2, but Flying Wild Hog is an order of magnitude more technically proficient than idSaber
Charles Torres
>Flying Wild Hog is an order of magnitude more technically proficient than idSaber
SW remake was bretty gud, SW2 was shit, but Hard Reset was a fucking masterpiece
Jonathan Watson
Their in-house engine is seriously underrated/underused. And it shits all over Sabertech, even SW2 co-op had no issues for me
Easton Evans
>SW remake was bretty gud tedious bulletspongefest, pretty funny tho
Samuel Morris
Why is the railgun so unsatisfying in Quake 3?
Adrian Anderson
Really? I like it best out of all railguns Try Q4 for a plastic-y bullshit-feeling rail
Ryan Hughes
are the enemies bullet spongy only on the highest difficulty? might give it another try.

Jonathan Roberts
Q2 railgun is more satisfying to me than the QL one.
Josiah Gonzalez

Xavier Howard
lawbreakers is free to play this weekend. why aren't you playing?
Isaac Martinez
Because I would be the only one playing.
Noah Moore
Lawbreakers is also 50% off. They are really struggling for any playerbase.
Ryder Martinez
i'll probably try it but after finding out about descent-clones thanks to this general all my non-quake time is basically taken up entirely
Owen Brown
>descent-clones say whaaaat?
Julian Scott
Bought Overload immediately upon finding out about its existence and I love it already. It's literally Descent 1/2 in gameplay, made by Descent devs. Eternal thanks to whichever user reminded me of 6dof games last thread.
John Gomez
nice, you should also check out Crime Cities, recently rereleased on gog, especially if you liked G-Police
Jayden Sanchez
I loved descent, I'm interested too. I'll probably pick it up
Hudson Cook
>Crime Cities
Hmmm never played it or G-Police, basically only played Descent 1/2 and Forsaken. Looks interesting so I'll probably pick it up too.
Gavin Richardson
>youtu.be/ZTEIh0sLlc0 Imo G-Police holds up after all these years. Gameplay is still decent (but can be hard as shit sometimes), story is surprisingly good and cutscenes, even if 3D pre-rendered, are on par with Final Fantasy (and we are talking about 1997).
Luis Jones
how do i play ad_sepulcher it doesnt load up with injector and it's not in the arcane dimensions missions hub first portal i entered crashed the game but the i jump on the half life 1 ferry to the beginning level which ive been in for almost 1 and a half hours on hard trying to complete it in one go since there are no save files and im having a blast
played for nine minutes when i was very very young turned it off
Andrew Green
HUH
Kayden Perry
literally what QUAKE ERROR: Hunk_Alloc: failed on 1048608 bytes -mem 64 -winmem 66 and -heapsize 64000 do nothing to counter this problem
Colton Moore
quake 1? which sourceport?
Eli Lee
Is netcode finally fixed? Is it finally playable? Should I buy it again?
Brandon Jones
no, meh, no
Gabriel Moore
I like it but you should try it out yourself.
Xavier James
/ourguy/ Milton streamin
Juan Moore
quakespasm? the fucks a source port
Kayden Adams
>A source port is a software project based on the source code of a game engine that allows the game to be played on operating systems or computing platforms with which the game was not originally compatible. how do you post in a quake-centric thread and not know what a sourceport is
Alexander Wood
good question how does anyone post anything anywhere
Austin Moore
...
Kevin Cooper
...
Noah Wood
noice
James Garcia
Odd. Are you using Quakespasm? It works flawlessly here. Crashes on level loads and teleporter entrances are usually sourceport problems
If you're using Quakespasm, check if it's the latest version
I'm assuming you're using the command line to properly load AD? Your comment about not being able to save made it looks like you're trying to load AD maps in regular Quake, which will break a lot of things
Use these command line launch options: -fitz -sndspeed 44100 -game ad
It's ESSENTIAL to change the game to "ad". Things will break otherwise
Grayson Phillips
If you're using Steam, it will look something like this. Disregard that I'm loading other mod instead of AD. If you're using the executable, right click on it and find the option for launch parameters
Also, don't sweat about my "+map" command, that's because this mod's initial level was called something other than "start". With AD you don't need to do this
Dylan Howard
Stream soon
David Williams
lets play some quake 2 67.228.69.114:27912
Aaron White
I use the injector i can add these to the command line instead of steam?
It's early access, and I don't really do early access. But maybe some of you anons have played it.
Wyatt Cook
Yeah it's pretty good it's like Tribe 1.
Matthew Perry
...
Daniel Johnson
...
Ayden Roberts
i want to kick that chair
Joshua Kelly
Try typing them where it says "Quake Executable"
Samuel Bennett
i thought the command line was the exact same thing as steam launch options/ normal .exe command line
Owen Cruz
Does that one Tribes Ascend bro who is always making the webms around? Has he played it?
Luis Williams
That's what it is. But you may need to rename the sourceport .exe to "Quake.exe"
Mason Cooper
No idea who that is. It's a game for classic tribes fans and not Ascend fans although it does streamline it a bit to accommodate the latter.
Kevin King
try skipping the quake injector entirely and just making a shortcut to the quake exe i never trusted that shit specifically due to fuckery like this
David Cook
Livestream is up Who cares about these mongoloids though, they can't give us real answers about the game's development, they're just community managers
Nolan Cooper
am I gonna sound like an autist if I say that it feels like I aim better with the default railgun compared to the Q2 skin?
Justin Torres
>Content patch in December
Feelsbadman
Liam James
holy shit rip in peace QC Tim and Sync probably fucked off when it became obvious they would be unable to deliver fixes fast enough and everyone would just shit on them and their spintastic PR on chat
Xavier King
Nah, it's all a matter of preference. For example I aim better with the Q2 railgun but couldn't imagine using a centered rail of any sort despite having every other weapon centered with the Q1 skin when applicable.
Elijah Richardson
ok so i just replace filenames and stuff and do everything manually then. siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh thx for help
Joshua Long
damn really makes you think huh..
Jackson King
>TWO MORE MONTHS OF DOOMFAG AND NIGGERKI
shash bobs tho
Isaac Powell
>these two autists overANALyzing the art contest submissions kill me
Asher Long
speaking of anal >tfw razyda didn't submit anything
