mindlessly tossing out a 50 damage shield with 50 healing every time something happens makes a hitbox about on par with nyx take as much damage as a Sorlag. it's just a smaller version of the Anarki problem- hard to hit, eats damage anyway.
The totem damage was fine, and the hefty speed buff, it's the cooldown buff she didn't need.

does doom 4 have good multiplayer? would it even be considered an arena shooter?
Juan Howard
hell no to both it has loadouts, which is big no no for arena games and it's also really shit, which pisses me off, since it has steam achievements tied to it, and to get all of them you have to play that putrid shit
Dominic Barnes
doom 3 has much better multiplayer

I actually don't think Quake Champions is a bad game. It's actually the opposite. It's TOO intense. People get caught up and put TOO much energy into it, and the instant the smallest little thing happens that kills them, they EXPLODE. Their is a trance that comes over players while they're playing, and they become extremely focused, up until the moment something unexpected happens(and thus they die), and all that energy is released at once.
I've been visiting some of these random twitch streamer personalities that have been testing the waters with QC and after a small introductory period you can see their faces get uncharacteristically absorbed(they are half-actors, after all), and then they die and it's like someone detonated them as they spaz and lose their cool in a way you would normally NEVER see them do.
Nathan Garcia
>see their faces get uncharacteristically absorbed i noticed this in most quake streamers, especially the good players who are playing at their best. dudes are FOCUSED
Christian Butler
is QC worth paying for or should I just play ut4?
Cooper Adams
anyone that tells you QC is worth paying for is retarded just get nquake, quake 2 starter, or free afps of your choice instead
Joseph Anderson
I like QC and I agree with this. QC will go f2p sometime this year and it'll 99% likely to be in a much better state then than it is now so for getting max value for your $, just give it abit
John Clark
ok thanks
Daniel Gutierrez
you don't have to play it if you don't want to the campaign is still pretty decent
Oliver Robinson
when/why is it going f2p? do the people who played for it get anything?
Elijah Evans
Quake Champions was always going to be free to play. It's in a paid early access right now. The people who buy for the game(not actually called 'buying QC' but called 'buying the champion pack') have access to all champions and the ability to make custom game lobbies.
Once the game is launched and is out of early access, anyone who wants to play can download the game and play for free, but only have access to champions they rent at cost of favor(an in-game currency earned by playing), champions possibly found in lootboxes (awarded each for each player level they get), champions purchased directly with platinum(an in-game currency purchasable directly with $) and Ranger.
Right now in the early access you can possibly get your hands on a game code for a f2p copy of the game(such as is sometimes awarded in the bi-weekly community stream), and most people who were in the closed beta test have a f2p copy of the game.
I got in very early in the CBT cycle and have spent no money on the game, I currently have (in addition to Ranger) Visor, Sorlag, Clutch, Slash, and Doom Slayer all found in the lootboxes I've opened up. It's really not a bad f2p experience, it's maybe one step better than f2p League of Legends- in LoL you could eventually permanently unlock any champion, but the cost of renting a Champion in QC is trivial, and if you're lucky you could eventually unlock all the champions anyway.
It's the free2play thing where they're going to make money because after I spend a couple 1000 hours playing for $0, they come out with a wicked voice pack/outfit for the FuckYouRobot, I'll drop $40 down without thinking.
its a fun game and the most populated arena shooter youre gonna find now. itll be free to play later(this year supossedly i think) so if you are patient or if $30 is a lot of money to you, then you can wait, otherwise i think it is definitely worth $30. it is a great game after you get past the learning curve.
Tyler Gutierrez
the playerbase consistently dips below quake live
Ethan Sullivan
where can you even see the full population? if you mean steam charts, that is only showing people playing from steam. it does not show players using the bethesda launcher
Brayden Murphy
>if you mean steam charts, that is only showing people playing from steam. it does not show players using the bethesda launcher When someone asked SyncError on Discord what was the playercount on the Beth Launcher, after dodging the question a bit ("I'm not sure. I'd have to ask."), he said "about 50 right now". Back then QC on Steam was at like 750 They will never make the numbers official because it'd be embarrassing for everyone to see nobody uses their DRM platform, but don't hold your breath for a real playerbase hidden away from the steamcharts count. It's like a handful of other guys
Kayden Morales
well thats too bad. still, i dont think QC is going anywhere as long as the devs dont do anything really stupid or wacky. you dont need huge numbers for a game to be playable; as long as queue times are fast and youre not playing the exact same players every match, then it should be fine
Jordan Williams
So Ranger vs. Nyx vs. Slash vs. Anarki top speed without abilities? Where do we stand?
Henry Allen
holy shit 2v2 is so fun to watch
Colton Bennett
Fastest to slowest in speed caps >Clutch >Visor >Ranger >Anarki >Nyx-Slash everyone else is about the same, capping at 560, 550, 520 etc. Keel should be noted as being last place in all categories at 480 with poor acceleration.
Considering average speed due to acceleration and turning. This is also assuming you have good movement mechanics and can do excellent circle jumps and strafe jumps at will: >Anarki >Slash >Clutch >Ranger >Nyx >Visor
Considering average speed with ability or rocketjump use: >Anarki >Slash >Sorlag >Ranger >Clutch >Nyx >Visor
Austin Wright
Thanks. I'll play some more Ranger. Does anyone know why they took down the speed of Nyx and Slash so much? I didn't realise that Ranger's faster now.
Carson Davis
oh god jesus what is that image
Lucas Parker
because they started using common sense and realized the champions that are the fastest around corners with the smallest hitboxes shouldn't also be the fastest champions. Slash gets to her max speed of 600 extremely quickly and she basically never ever slows down on any corner, on any jump, or even into an ADAD movement and it's extraordinarily powerful even as her top speed is now lower than a handful of champions.
Justin Powell
All right, fair enough. But Nyx is also down at 600 now, right? And she doesn't have crouch slide.
James Ortiz
visor should be at the top of the speed caps. clutch's air strafe speed cap is the lowest at 320ups. galena is also at the same level as nyx/slash now at 600ups
Chase Mitchell
slash for 100 hp 2018
Josiah Wilson
newshit here; been playing galena, visor, nyx and ranger quite a bit. started to play sorlag and doomguy too. i wanna add another small champ to that list, im just wondering about anarki's small HP and slash's sliding movement. which one of the latter two things is likely to be a larger obstacle in learning to play anarki/slash? i never played slash at all, but the movement doesnt appear to be that difficult? is there some kinda way that everyone uses anarki's injection now? like to get above 80 hp so you dont get railed immediately?
Dylan Ortiz
crouch sliding isn't that hard, it'll only take a couple games on each map and you'll be good to go anarki is a different story, some people start injecting imminently and look for hourglasses while playing passively (rails and nails and long range) until they get a good amount of hp. some people play him the same way as you used to, dunno how good that is now
Jackson Hill
Visor caps at 1800, Clutch can exceed 2000 ups.
Gabriel Garcia
Anarki is for pros playing a specalist. I wouldn't try. Slash is the complete opposite, and movement is not at all difficult.
Juan Wood
>movement is not at all difficult. >saying this after last patch where half the fucking maps act like burial chamber
Brayden Perry
ok thank you guys for the input.
Anthony Moore
slash is not that hard
Ayden Gonzalez
slash SHOULDN'T be that hard
Kayden Perez
are you saying slash should be easier?
Sebastian Scott
no i'm saying it's not right for a girl to have a penis
Asher Sullivan
why do you think slash has a penis when she has vagina bones
Caleb Martinez
do you have proof of that
Logan Stewart
I've thoroughly investigated slash's naval enough times to notice them
Anthony Bailey
maybe it's just a very feminine penis
Tyler Taylor
sloash's legs do the pointing thingy that women have not the straight thingy men have, no chance of penis
Anthony Bailey
>man streams quake champions at 75 fps on $400 PC more optimized than super metroid
Thomas White
how do you know there aren't eldritch forces at work here
William Stewart
also 'pointing thingy'
Jaxon Jones
holy shit player collision is so bad you can be running right into someone as scale during charge and do zero damage and sometimes you just phase through people, and they shoot away from you and kill you
Ian Sanchez
Only on steam. those numbers do not include bethesda launcher.
They need to build more stuff for new players. I feel so bad when there's some level 3 who's in the game and he's gotten 0 kills in 10 minutes. I know he's not having fun and I want him to have fun and there's nothing honest I could reach out with other than >"Listen, this sucks. I wish I could change it so that you weren't in this game and instead in an environment where you were FAIRLY challenged and had an actual chance to develop skills as a player. But I can't, and this is just not right."
Isaiah Clark
Oh fun fact. Did you know that the wider width of women's hips doesn't affect their running efficiency or speed?
Jaxson Mitchell
The biggest improvement they could make for new players is making spawn points on all maps better to prevent them from getting spawn killed. Technically speaking it is more difficult to fight a prepared player than a newly spawned player. Better spawns could greatly improve player experience.
Easton Bell
Lets play some old shit like OpenArena, Warsow, Assaultcube, Cube 2.....
Damn they are free and old but they have playerbase and they run in poor graphics cards.
Christian Wood
You know what's incredible? Aim >>> Movement. This isn't a criticism, it's just the translatable nature of the better aim people have today. You can find some real dedicated old-timer Quake players playing QC with absolutely perfect movement, playing Visor they can take a dump on your typical quakefresh movement. And he hits his timings on a familiar map like dm6 using rj tricks and positioning advantage and despite all that skill, he will just lose to a much higher accuracy, younger player with the modern optical pro gaming mice and fast reaction time. I think in past incarnations of quake and other aFPS expectations of things like consistent 70%+ rail accuracy was just absurd and movement and item control were the real tickets to success. But if you get an environment where somebody can just shoot their opponent and their opponent dies first, everytime, all that movement skill loses value.
They need to make sure that they balance weapons based upon the aim of the modern young gamer and not to what the old-timers are used to in previous incarnations of quake.
