A place to discuss all of your favorite old-school and modern arena shooters such as Quake Live, Quake Champions, Unreal Tournament, Reflex, etc.
>QuakeNews QC Update has moved from February to March 15 (at least devs aim for it), chances for same base speeds/diffrent acceleration values/no hard cap speed across all champions, certainly there will be 2v2 and instagib gamemodes. High chances for crashes to be eliminated from the game. Devs ask to "be patient". Current patch notes here: bethesda.net/community/topic/186034/patch-notes-early-access-update-25-01-18
>DUSKNews The DUSKWorld 1v1 actually happened it but it seems like there was no stream and it was all about discord lurkers (statement for this is: "Spectator wasn't ready yet", "this is sort of a prototype tourny" etc.) Episode 3 "soon™", DUSKWorld is "still in beta"
How can this guy have positive win/lose ratio but still have negative mmr? How the fuck did nu-id code this shit?

>50 minutes to find a match QC is dead i guess i only want to do shit daily and be over with it
Noah Collins
where do you live user? try connecting to a few more servers. ive had issues with this game but finding a match has never been one, even at odd hours.
Nicholas Collins
I've made a tonne of friends playing Q3 CPMA

>europe >post in evening before sleep, thread is quite lively >come back after getting back home next day >thread died but someone restarted it Arena shooting is too demanding for burgers, it seems.
Hunter Perez
it was working fine till a few days ago . yesterday and today took 30 or 50 minutes to find a match spain , if ican play with people from the other side of the world i would . fuck my own country
Dominic Parker
I use only EU servers and I get constant well below 60 second matchups.
Carson Rivera
>admitting that you don't play duel dumb shitter
John Turner
even a 4vs4 feels like shit because you spend most of the match trying to find people fuck duels and fuck anything below 32 player matches
James Watson
Anyone here play Warsow
Jordan James

>id partnering with another company Like Saber wasn't enough of experience. Idk how it will work overall, but from Tim's description it looks like they will do all servers backend.
I sense disaster.
Adrian Hernandez
so how do playermodels interact with each other for players on the same team? it seems that most of the time i can run right through my teammates. other times, mostly when waiting for powerups, sometimes my teammates are able to kinda push me off the platform. so far ive experienced that with a clutch and i think a sorlag. the clutch player, every time, was able to nudge me off of mega/armor and take it for himself. is this normal or only a clutch/fat champ thing?
Ryder Green
I think there's some kind of soft collision. You can freely pass through friendly teammates, but if you linger in the same space as a teammate the game begins to push the two players away from each other.
Liam Fisher
To be fair, this is Amazon, not a bunch of backwater cheeki breekis.
Ian Russell
I fucking love those autists who spent time on art like this
Luis Foster
i see. makes sense
Sebastian Allen
had a nightmare that I was a short asian titty monster rubbing my face along Ranger's abs while he claimed he just wanted to go home and see his wife and kids and then I ate pineapples with Slash
Brayden Kelly

>no sorlag dream better
Chase Baker
What can be done for UT4 to be revived? It can't stay in Pre-Alpha state forever.
Luke Nelson
well first of all epic needs to assign some devs to it
Julian Foster
So /arena/ never thought I would hear of this but there is a new build engine game coming and her name is Ion Maiden. What do you think /arena/ looks pretty dope doesn't it?
Gavin Bailey
the transition to these servers has already happened some time ago. This is just marketingbs
Asher Smith
this but aside of that >Rehash of UT99 with prettier graphics won't do - look at the fate of Toxikk and Reflex arena. >1v1 and small scale arena niche is taken by QC right now - UT4 would be simply late to the party so then >teammodes revolving mostly around vehical combat CTF with vehicles with futuristic setting isn't a thing on PC afaik and it could expand on the (Tbh) unfinished concept from UT2004/UT3. Current gamemodes would stay as it is ofc.
I'm... confused >Hai! we brought Bombshell which bombed our sales >Ok - now we are making a demake with her! pic related
Blake Perry
>SORLAG IS A GRIL!?!? xD
Explains why it works so much better now than it used to.
Connor Perez
>a terrifying mass of hard scales, sharp teeth, thicc tail and wide hips
Jack Lee
Are more concept art around?
Hudson Martinez
There are some of Visor and Nyx.
Hey you won't hear me complain any new Singelplayer AFPS is ok in my book.
Matthew Fisher
Buncha. Check their Twitter, not gonna post it all. Wonder why Sorlag got a hi-poly model render while everyone else got genuine concept art.
Alexander Ortiz
I'm not really complaining. It's just confusing as hell move for me. I already have it on my wishlist (also I checked gggmanlives' review of it). Imo it will be good, definitely better than Bombshell because there will be no meaningless mechanics and the map design will be 1000x better.
Aaron White
HUH
Jason Adams
Daily reminder that Tim is deliberately forcing you to play unoptimized shit with maps too full of shit that no matter how good hardware you have you will always get jitter and total freezes. Meanwhile Tim himself is playing QC without weapon model and picmic.
Owen Davis
huh
Samuel Rivera
But I play on highest settings and get a stable 60fps and none of that shit.
Henry Russell
>60 fps
Nicholas Peterson
>start game >can't move >can't aim >can shoot >can dire orb forward >can complain about it in chat Huh?

Jack Sanders
That look of Ranger would not look out of place in Warhammer 40K or any other futuristic grimdark setting.
Julian Reed
that's already a ranger skin, as well as the model used in the pre-rendered announcement trailer
Isaac Gomez
that's fucked
Robert Hall
Still, I haven't seen a face so ugly since Brink.

Bentley Nelson
Are you seriously asking this? It's Glicko2 ELO, you can lose from one loss more than you gained with 1+ win(s) What likely happened is that he lost to someone of much lower rank (200-300 difference) and had to give up more points than he had, thus going into the negative
Blake Phillips
>even a 4vs4 feels like shit because you spend most of the match trying to find people >fuck duels and fuck anything below 32 player matches This isn't Battlefield, though. QC maps are made to accommodate 8 players. If you're not finding people in 4v4 you're fucked up Most maps you can sweep in under 10 seconds (going from mega to red, looking into most or all rooms). You're doing something wrong

Don't die...
Nicholas Cruz
reminds me of those titanfall 2 low res "models". they were more like legos that vaguely resembled a humanoid figure
Camden Barnes
funny. i had something similar happen the other day on sarnath. playing galena and losing a fight at LG. im about to die to LG, i run to tele, go through and drop a totem immediately. but due to whatever, the LG hits me after i travel through the portal. i die and rubberband back to the other side of the portal, where the LG is, but my totem did actually come out and stayed on the other end, the shotgun/RL/mega area weird stuff!
Bentley Johnson
Does anyone else feel like the content trickle for this game is too slow? I mean, even if you disregard how long it takes between new champions being added, the delay (fucking MONTHS) to get a measly map added to the game is gigantic and all but unacceptable
Matthew Collins
QC is a B or even C-tier project within id Your fault for being dumb enough to buy the Champions Pack To everyone else, the waits are shitty but not as painful because no $$$ was invested
Luis Jackson
Convince me not to play the latest Unreal Tournament game
Wyatt Peterson
it's fukken dead m8
Aaron Cook
zippityzap slash give me the brap
Thomas Kelly
whats the actual deal with this? i remember seeing some promotional material of the game a long time ago, some really high definition screenshots of a map and some guns but thats about it. have not heard anything about it since. is it released/early access with slow/no updates or content? is it in development hell or what? whats wrong with it?
John Morgan
It's fine but kinda barebones. It was supposed to live off community content (and it does to an extent), but not a lot of people stuck with the game It's now on hiatus due to everyone being on Fortnite
Andrew Ross
What did he mean by this?
Liam Reyes

Blake Long
They've taken the entire team off UT4 and got them helping on Fortnite instead
Isaiah Edwards
who here /ultrawidemasterrace/? So glad QC supports it, that alone makes it better than those shitty old quakes
Liam Morales
Basically any non-basic-bitch sourceport of the old Quakes also supports it

Uhm sweetie, we are talking about real games here. Nobody gives a shit about some ugly fps from 1996.
