threads aren't abandoned for very long before they die, it's quite obnoxious

Aaron Edwards
I just saw some guy in TDM that was lvl 33 who basically didn't jump at all, just walked from place to place
How do you play the game that much without grasphic the very very basics of the movement
Joseph Williams
Maybe he is so high-level he doesn't need to jump to win anymore
Nathan Rogers
damn thats next level
Jack Cooper

Thomas Turner
...Did you take a photo of your monitor?
Jeremiah Jones
remember when we had incremented health values of 25? who's idea do you think that was?
Chase Watson
I think it was Sync's idea after reading misguided feedback, or his compromise for not wanting to get rid of the excessively client-side shit they got going on. "I'll give everything more HP so shooter's advantage is not THAT painful" It ruined Duel IMO. Duel was tight and well-balanced and a lot more fun when a single mistake was severely costly. Now everyone can tank a lot of stuff, including 3 rails from spawn for most chars
Christopher Perry
you don't remember
I'm talking about health globes and light armors always healing you to a flat value of 25, 50, 75, 100, etc. so if you were at 60 hp and got a health globe, you'd be at 75, or if you were at 70, you'd be brought to 100. It used to be that way
Oliver Smith
I thought you meant the +25HP buffs Yeah, the removal of that was also on the same patch IIRC. I'm not sure what was supposed to add to the game
Jason Cooper
HUH
Jaxon Morris
life's a penis and the shaft is quake
Ryan Rogers
>say anything aside from "gg" or "glhf" in duel >opponent flies into an autistic fury
Asher Baker
So in the new Quake comic there is how many visors exactly? 2? 3?
Isaac Morris
FFS always when yurofags go to sleep the thread dies. Americucks move your ass.
Austin Murphy
Nearly twenty, I think, if I'm remembering his lore right. Three of them survived the process total, and one of those three died when the Russkies tried reverse-engineering him. The two left are Visor and Prime, whoever that is, the one referenced in the comic and Visor's Lore skin- which is a bit of a flip-flop from Q3A as in Q3, it was implied that Visor himself was the original ('Visor Prime'), and Gorre and the other unseen mask-dudes were the clones.
Gavin Sanders
>/arena/ pussies didn't even play 10 duels to qualify
Is that true or you are just shy to post your bronze trench, shitters? :^) Well, I guess I'm simply the best player here. Even after 15 years of not playing any FPS games nu-/v/ can't get on the same level with true quakedads like me.
Isaac Jackson
that's about 150 points under that one tranny acrylicass who basically walks into all situations with rail out
Jeremiah Morales
Well s(he) is quite good.
Samuel Gutierrez
wherever I am I must also frag
Julian Foster
>rocket jump away >shooter clearly fires rocket at where you were, because you're looking down at it >get hit for 100 damage as if that rocket were a direct >both of us are less than 40 ping
Carson Carter
>no patches >no cosmetics >no players
dead game dead thread
Ethan Johnson
come talk to me when you reach 2100, shitter :)
Nathan Rivera
using cheats is pretty fun though
Christopher Kelly
go home ivan
Isaiah Foster
at least you can see damage numbers in qc
in pubg there was nothing more frustrating than spraying a dude and never knowing if i even hit him since blood splatter alone didn't tell me shit. worst hitreg in any game i've ever played by far
Chase Ross
>at least QC netcode is better than weww at least we cleared the lowest bar
all these shit FPS netcodes just makes me appreciate the incredible feat of engineering that was Planetside 2
Michael Edwards
playing popular shooters will make anyone appreciate every little crumb that qc gives

danks mang
Dominic Gutierrez
I repacked it back (because I deleted original package) and I probably used diffrent compression than original uploader.
Christopher Davis
>watch option >can't find anything to record a match or its a pay feature?
Logan Watson
it’s to watch twitch streamers
Connor Johnson
so its for nothing too bad, sometimes i find how i fuck up by watching my own gameplay to improve
Isaiah Davis
devs said demos are coming but desu they should already be in
Ryder Miller
Devs say a lot of shit
Gabriel Powell
>DUSKWorld 1v1 tournament is on >Nobody reminds the state of /arena/fucks
Luis Myers
>Nobody reminds its in the OP you idiot
Asher Jenkins
>Nobody is streaming or even casting the tournament Top game
Ethan Hill
tournament will start in 4h30m dumbos
Andrew Garcia
>DUSK
Jonathan Morris
Bi-weekly QC community stream is up
Connor Cox
>It's a community cucks episode Might as well not watch, the only times we ever get decent info is when Tim or Sync are there
Isaac Davis
>The Nailgun, Clutch and Galena are problems for Duel and we're going to fix that Well, fuck Galena may deserve a slight nerf, but I think Clutch is OK And as long as by "Nailgun" they mean the starting one. SNG should be left as it is (I know they will nerf its knockback)
Camden Hill
>no update this month
Isaiah Kelly
>no speedcaps can you smell that?
Ayden Wood
>No speed cap for everyone (Visor-like) >lower accelerations We already knew as of the last stream, but damn, the feel of the game will change significantly It's kinda annoying having gotten used to movement one way and it changes this wildly
Josiah Ross
>mfw they'll probably just straight up nerf Galena They oughta just rework her ability. Hell, I'd be happy if you were immune to triggering her totems for a quick moment when you go through a teleporter to put an end to that gay, unfun playstyle.
Charles Phillips
lmao, answers are already done and they're playing TDM (very poorly) Nice stream, faggots
Isaiah Price
I think they'll just revert last buff to her totems. No big deal.
Bentley King
>They're aiming for 15th March update FML
Luke Williams
Nothing new
Parker Cook
Man even I am better than this guys at QC. Do they let bad players play on purpose?
Gabriel Gomez
They're "community managers". It's their job. They probably don't give much of a fuck about QC and I doubt they play it on their free time
Isaac Jones
>New patch same day as exams are done Neat
Joshua Lopez
I think they were more focused on chat rather on game.
Elijah Sullivan
>rather than* I'm tired, excuse me.
Lucas Anderson
definitely /ourguy/
Oliver Jones
q4max on crawlingchaos boys
Michael Long
fuck I slept past community stream pls
Ayden Baker
>It's kinda annoying having gotten used to movement one way and it changes this wildly
I'm too excited to care
Connor Kelly
if you're big head in the FPS community you're not allowed to blast things like OW publicly. If there's just a chance that these mongo money companies like Blizzard will pay you money for your pizza bills just for sitting down and playing or talking about some video game, you don't bite the hand that feeds you. But they know, as high calibur FPS players, that OW is absolute trash, and they likely hold a deep level of hatred for the game in secret.
Is he our guy? I don't know. But this sentiment of hatred for the bullshit that is these other FPS games IS EVERYTHING that's driving the interest in QC. You can drop a bomb in some random QC player grouping like >mercy rez and it's like tossing a frag grenade in swimming pool.
Anthony Morris
>and it's like tossing a frag grenade in swimming pool. you go to jail? I don't get it.
Also you're wrong, look at Carnage, he plays Overwatch and Fortnite and shuns Quake Champions.
Mason Ortiz
>Carnage, he plays Overwatch and Fortnite and shuns Quake Champions. that's because carnage is garbage at QC, he simply moved on to something easier he might've been hot shit in 2009-2010 in tf2 and probably thought that since QC was le mobaquake he could easily get to the top and then got destroyed both in duel and sac
Henry Sanchez
I just remembered that by missing the stream I *also* missed the giveaways FUCK FUCK my LIFE
won't removing speed caps just make slash unstoppable? she's literally braindead easy to get to + retain 600 on currently and that's with the maps actively working to stop her.
Charles Jones
Why hasn't any Arena fps done what EA Sports did with yearly releases on similar but updated maps? Unreal Tournament had 2003 and 2004 but then they decided to put all their effort into Gears of War and Gears of War first person mode/UT3.
Robert Lopez
we have these things called online patches and DLC now
Landon Clark
there's a lot of factors involved. we just have to wait and see
Asher Perry
The real question is what's the point of Visor now?
Liam Reed
fuck online patches and DLC! I miss when the dev gave up updating past day 3 and the community fixed the game for years to come and the devs only ever returned for an expansion pack or announcing some other dev was making a spin-off like Enemy Territory.
Christopher Perez
cheeki breeki
James Martin
maybe they can give him the quickest acceleration?
