Why aren't you playing QuakeWorld? It is the superior multiplayer gaming experience for your computer.
>>731135305Shill me on it?How does it compare to quakelive?
>>731135583Isotropic bunnyhopping allows for quicker movement in all directions. Lack of railgun helps to neuter boring +back playstyles. Interesting dynamic around spawn frags where players are fighting for control to spawn frag instead of having some weird "balance" to the map where both players are always stacked and spawn far away from each other when they die. Mature community filled with adults instead of buttangry teenagers, for the most part.
I never liked Quake's movement or dull guns.
I suck at playing these
>>731135723Fov needs to be 3x higher
>>731135723I have no idea how to bhop/gain speed in Quake. I figured out how to go faster/further on the first jump by doing some weird diagonal half circle "wind up" with the mouse but that is obviously impossible to do on consecutive jumps. I also keep defaulting to what l'm doing in source
HUH
>>731136109The airstrafing is the same as any Source engine game.
I got tired of it, like, 27 years ago. >Randomly strafing everywhere where you need control vs real player>Powerup timer rings>Colored lights and shit turned on Lol
>>731136262Well l can't get it to work
>>731136579>>Powerup timer rings>>Colored lights and shit turned onSpectating features that aren't present during gameplay.
>>731136772>Uglified ui>Spammed ui with random shit all over it>Uglified rocket trail>Shitty clusterfuck box mapCompletely destroy the aesthetic and pretend you're playing quake tho
>>731136903Those are all spectator features. You are free to customize the HUD however you like, of course.> pretend you're playing quake thoI play Quake every night, do feel free to join us, whether you're EU or NA.
>>731135305>QuakeWorldNo active servers.
>>731137031But I got tired of it 27 or so years ago. Also that map looks terrible. Play dm3 and shit.
>>731137160https://hub.quakeworld.nu/There are active servers throughout the day across all regions. From the hub you can browse active servers, spectate from the browser, or even click to join. All the gameplay I post is actually clipped from the Hub's in-browser demo viewing feature. Feel free to give it a whirl, it is pretty impressive tech that you won't find in any modern shooter.
>>731135305Quake 1 single player on nightmare mogs the multiplayermultiplayer is a bunch of bhopping boomers with 9001 hours
Q3/QL is the superior game in terms of netcode and balance.
>>731137589I personally don't find the single player to be very interesting. Bhopping is quintessential to the multiplayer experience, yeah.>>731137603QuakeWorld has much better netcode after Reki introduced the modern antilag features. The "balance" present in Quake 3 and onward is precisely why I don't like the game. They "balanced" all the fun out of it. You simply hold +back while sniffing your monitor so you can react to your rail angles. There is too much armor spread out around the map, and you are guaranteed a safe spawn far from the opponent who fragged you. To each his own.
>>731137796The balance is exactly what makes Q3/QL great and allows you to stage a comeback in the match. Unlike QW where you're getting fragged right off spawn all the time with gigantic rocket splash damage. Oh and god forbid you let your opponent get the Quad, now you can get spawn camped even harder for 30 seconds, amazing.
>always loved Quake MP and was even decent at it>years pass>can't compete with people online>get motion sick constantlyIt might be over for me, bros...
>>731138446Yes, much of QuakeWorld is fighting over who gets to be in control. Being in control earns you the ability to make spawnfrags. Quake 3's balance does not reward the controlling player enough. Item pickups become a formality, there are enough to go around, and you don't actually control the map. Sure the winning player gets access to slightly better armor and maybe in extreme cases can lock the enemy out of a single weapon. For me, part of what makes an Arena FPS game interesting is the snowballing nature of control. I think it is fun to kill someone in the middle of ztndm3 6 times in a row. I think it is interesting to finally get a spawn away from the rape and try to mount your comeback, so you can then be the controlling player.
i used to play quakeworld but i got boredunfortunately arena shooters are not thriving right now
