After 24 years, I’ve decided to leave id Software after QuakeCon. I’ve been extremely lucky to work with the best people in the industry on truly amazing games. QuakeCon has been an unbelievable part of my journey and I look forward to seeing everyone at the Gaylord Texan.
This nigga went through so much work and overtime to prepare and work on stuff for quakecon, only to quit afterwards? is he legit dumb? He should've quit before, that way ID software would've actually done everything they could to keep him because they wouldn't be able to find a replacement in the time.
Jayden Fisher
Wasn't he directly responsible for two massive commercial failures in Quake Champions and Rage 2?
Jordan Rogers
i wish people could actually express how they feel instead of only being socially allowed to give generic sugar'd PR statements.

Jason Roberts
Americans are fat and stupid but they occasionally make good video games.
It all started going downhill the moment they were bought by Zenimax. DOOM turned out great because id had freedom and was going to do anyway. Rage 2 and Champions are two games no one wants or asked for. Zenimax wanted in on the hero shooter meme and Quake was the sacrificial lamb fetus.
Quake has been dead since the first one for me. 2 was meh and I never cared about multiplayer.
William Garcia
OP is gaylord texan lol
Brody Wilson
QC development has been hell They have a winning formula, fun and interesting that was gaining momentum, and they decide to fuck it up hard with the shoddiest updates and trimming content even more. Runes are out the game. Challenges suck dick. Performance is ass.
And they encrypted the models so no one can make SFM porn too. Not even waifumancy will survive. Dumbasses.

John Flores
probably lack of support from lead actors at id.
Adam Thompson
They didn't do Quake 4, Raven did.
Robert Collins
Biggest problem with Quake are the dogshit aesthetics. It's not just good visual design, especially when compared to games in the same vein like Doom or Unreal.
based and fragpilled Q1 is the only good Quake game, and 3 is for ADHD induced zoomers
Sebastian Clark
>he thinks Texan is a red state
lol Dallas, Austin, Houston, and all the major cities are just as bad as Boston New York Seattle and Chicago.
Xavier Harris
If the company doesn't adjust, then why should he wageslave it for the sake of everyone else? He creates economic value and if that isn't appropriately rewarded by the company, then you're literally retarded for doing it for free.
Nathan Adams
>we struggle to understand there's something outside our borders Not only is that blatantly false (most high schoolers spend more time learning about “world history” these days than U.S. history), but it’s an argument that has never held any weight. Why do third-worlders get to shit on America for not knowing the tax policies of every one of their tiny little mud hut countries, but whenever they stumble into a thread about a western game and completely embarrass themselves about western culture, they cry and say they’re being bullied?
Brandon Bennett
Why didn't they put him on stilts or something? The size difference distracts from the announcement. When will Bethesda stop sabotaging itself?

Instead of coming with good counter arguments you reply by projecting based on nothing. Again, mental maturity of an 11 year old.
Justin Murphy
I was going to pull the gay porn argument, but that wouldn't fly knowing today's Google, now would it?
I agree but unfortunately if they said what they actually wanted to say then they may potentially say something that hurts the reputation of a business and businesses being businesses don't want that. People are forced to be pragmatic so they don't ruin their careers in the industry.

Anthony Turner
No its not. Quake 3 is the slow man's quake. And calling somebody that prefers quake 1 a zoomer is complete retardation. Quake 1 players are the boomiest of boomers and quake 3 players are nu-boomers that are borderline halo enthusiasts.
how are they (models) encrypted? how do you know they're encrypted and not just written in some obscure file format? asking because i've done reverse-engineering on some games (including file systems and 3d models) but don't have access to qc
Aiden Baker
Gaylord meant "high-spirited" until the mid-20th century. I can only imagine how much language will have changed by the time we're old men.
Joseph Wilson
qc never stood a chance Quake used to be game that pushed limits of hardware, a tech demo of the engine of sorts, like unreal was. QC is nothing like this. It runs like trash, and died before they even managed to release it.
Luis Bailey
quakelive pak files were encrypted too, but that was just a short xor cipher. is this not the same?
Jace Ward
U can use the method of ripping the model off the gpu memory, look up titanfall 2 model extraction on facepunch (the entire game VPK files are encrypted)
Luke Martin

Christopher Rogers

Adrian Gutierrez
QL pak files can be accessed with 7z, all previous quake pak files can be accessed with that, besides Q1 and Q2 Pak, which needs Pakexplorer Q1 and Pakscape for Q2.
Models until some time ago could be ripped off, hence why you got Classic Doomguy, weapons, Sorlag and BJ
gays have a tendency to act (ACT) extremely happy when really they arent it's a form of defense because they are dead and empty inside since they have nothing to base their existence on other than their sexuality if they acted any other way then it would just be verifiable proof that their choices in life were objectively wrong - it's a smokescreen
Gavin Bell
man they've really pissed in the face of id traditions like modding

Quake was an unfinished tech demo that couldn't even rival Doom, only hipsters overhype that shit when even as a single player it was always pretty mediocre, you have stuff like Unreal, Blood, Turok and Duke 3D all having superior single player.
'Was' or 'is'? I mean, didn't it only just come out?

Brayden Sanchez
I disagree. Unreal advanced AI makes enemies far more interesting and that game alone had more level variety than all Quake games combined, it's a much more inspired, complete single player experience while Quake just feels like some arcadey game made to kill time.
Gabriel Ross
i've done essentially that twice, and it's because you've completed your current job and can avoid taking on new responsibilities. the only reason not to schedule departure after you complete a big project is if you hate the firm you are working for rather than want to do something else (e.g. cash out your equity and enjoy self-determination)

I like the concept of Quake Champions, I like the art, I like the lore (yes, I know), and the gameplay is fun. But like pple said, performance is crap and... let's be honest, you have to be kind of an autist to stick so long on a arena shooter game

Jackson Hall
Arena shooters wouldn't be dead if it wasn't Saber Interactive and Bethesda's jews who didn't give enough money to id to develop a proper game.
Even then it was a pretty interesting project to people with 17,000 peaking players (yes, it's a lot for arena shooters). But because the game had so many technical issues, people couldn't even enjoy it and quit.
Ryan Thomas

It's not a Texas problem and people don't understand that. Every nigger, spic, and jew live in the big cities in every state. Maine is a beautiful white state and the only place you'll find trash niggers is in portland.
Do they show you some footage of new summer loot crate items in QC and maybe a new upcoming map and then you walk around looking at cosplayers for 2 days then go home?

First anime and now video games are dead. What the fuck is happening.
Tyler Sullivan
Yeah and most of those who back Democrats can't vote.
The state it released with less of content than a 1 man indie game is inexcusable. Its dead and im glad for it, devs must be punished for such stunts so when next time a game with 5 characters and 3 maps comes out someone will get fired.

Easton Stewart
The former cities are just where the leftugees who created the social conditions in the latter cities as a means to signal status through link related, fled to in order to escape the consequences of this status signalling.
>>Game falls flat on its face and Bethesda hasn't talked about it since E3 2018, and even then people never gave two shits about it Oh sure, maybe they didn't need to outsource it to a literal noname company that was never making anything even remotely the same as Quake.
What's even the point to outsource Quake to Sabre (to cut some expanses) but announce a $1,000,000 tournament? Sure it's a joke compared to Dota 2 TIs with $25millions, but for Quake it was a gigantic prize pool.
Yet, they fucked up by letting some shit studio to develop it. And they obviously failed at it. Now QC is in limbo, id software is obviously not developing it, only a couple of freaks like Syncerror, but it's obvious that all the real staff is working on the other projects. And they didn't officially cancel it, however it's still in early access and it was never officially released.
I'm pretty sure that it could take a niche spot and sort of restart the interest for arena shooters. Even with relatively low online with like 5000-10000 people playing it, it would be more than enough for QC.
But they fucked up so much.
Bentley Rodriguez

Thomas Brown

What do you mean? If you're talking about Champions then one of the few redeeming things about that game was the art team and the work they did on it.
Nicholas Jenkins
Yes how dare this guy tidy up all the work he had piled up before leaving so that he and his former employer are on mutually good terms with one another. He should have just done the zoomer thing and simply stop showing up and stonewalling everybody the moment he decided to quit.
Pretty sure Dahang did better at the two latest quakecons.
Austin Nelson
The californians moving are conservatives you retard. California was solidly red until clinton
Jeremiah Howard
Yes, but I was talking about the community and regular players in general. Obviously I'm not going to deny that Zero4, Fatality, Czm, Rapha or Thresh were good players.
Tim Willits is a primary reason why QC has stayed alive for so long. It is a passion project, and Tim wouldn’t let Bethesda ever shut it down no matter the population. I have a few internal sources telling me that Bethesda is finally pushing forward with pulling the plug and is giving Tim a fat check to move on. All that would be left is Sync, who is softer than a marshmallow. Without Tim, there is nothing standing in the way of Bethesda from turning off the lights for good...probably by next year’s Quakecon.

Oh good, the last official member who worked on Doom is now leaving id, even if it was a limited capacity in a minor role.
Now I don't have to put an astrisk when I say no-one at current ID worked on the original Doom. People who think that a company name means anything other than a umbrella for people to work under are moronic.
Yes, "id" made Doom 4 and is currently making Doom Eternal but it's a whole new company akin to 343 making Halo and the results are quite similar. A massive dissapointment.
Noah Gray

I can't help but wonder what the future of QC will be now,I do hope things will get better. I liked the game a lot.
With the way they stopped talking about tournaments (there is still no official schedule for 2019) and the fact that they went from monthly patches to 3 month patch cycles it's pretty obvious that they are going to axe the game in the near future. I would say that they just halt all development by 2021 at the very latest, and they'll probably be slashing servers as they go. They a;ready killed a few servers when they switched to the whole regional server selection thing a few months ago.
Is it gonna keep up updating? Are there any news? Is the game gonna be saved by someone else? I fucking liked it. I wish I didn't, but I did. It's good. It's fun to fight another person with shooting shoots. There are no other shooters nowadays. I'm angry enough to write a letter.
>So that means no Hunter is confirmed, huh. Orbb is already confirmed though.
Hunter Morgan
God damn it all. I don't want to live in a world where we come this close to seeing my bronze musclegoddess waifu in pro-modeled 3D and it all turns to shit.

The only way to revive arena shooters is to turn them into a battle royale OP.
Joseph Ross
any game that wants to take off needs to be toaster friendly. I get 120+ FPS on csgo 80+FPS on fortnite but I can't get a smooth 60 FPS on quake champions. I have a GTX 660
Robert Wood
battle royale in a typical FFA map would probably be the best battle royale. obviously they wouldn't be 100-player though.
Elijah Butler
>The only way to revive arena shooters is to turn them into a battle royale OP. No, QC could be decently popular if it wasn't such a fucking mess technically-wise.
It also took away everything that could make it better - community support and community content. For someone like Bethesda, it's a super retarded way to approach it as they know that their dogshit games are always fixed and improved by fan-made mods.
And fans improved Quake 3 as well because it was pretty shitty on the release. Fans made new maps, improved the original maps, fixed the balance and all that shit. OSP made the game "competitive".
QC couldn't provide any of it, the development was sloppy as fuck and very slow. As it wasn't some PUBG with potato code, or even worse shit like Paladins, it could only rely on stellar netcode and some community support.
Why take it away, what kind of stupid crap is that shit? Do they never learn? Dota? Autochess? Counter Strike? OSP? Tons of maps and Defrag? Improved fucking Skyrim and shitty Fallout 3-4?
Does the game have bots? Thats how you get gud at any FPS shooter. First you need to get down >bunny hop movement >map memorisation >weapon pickups >reaction time >aim All of these you get simply by killing bots en masse. Good luck you gonna need it.
>How do I get good when all I get matched with are elite players? That's exactly how you improve, by playing against better players.
Asher Green
Yup, Quoth was a good pack
Josiah Nguyen
You don't improve by getting utterly stomped over and over again, you need to actually be able to practise the game or begin to learn mechanics to git gud, which you can't do if you're dying before you can try anything out.
Aiden Harris
just wait for diabotical you faggot
Aiden Clark
That's because you're autistic. Normal people use hotels. Super autists use hotels (for conventions where they get cucked hard). You're just autistic.
Thomas Flores
>You don't understand hotels, you aren't a sophisticated Gaylord Texan like me
You get better by playing people who are a bit better than you or just willing to teach you. Getting shit on by someone way out of your league won't really help you, especially when you can't even review a demo of the match afterwards.
You probably aren't getting matched with elites. You just don't have a grasp of the mechanics so players with *some* experience can treat you like a ragdoll. The game doesn't provide any decent tutorials so new players are left in the dark about a lot of shit. The most important thing in Quake is learning how the movement works and figuring out how to maintain control of the items. Look up strafe/circle jump videos on youtube and practice if you want to get better.
>Tim leaves >SyncError still exists FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK WORST TIMELINE. SyncError is the absolute worst faggot to leave any game in the hands to. Quake is dead and I genuinely enjoy QC despite its flaws.
Ethan Parker
trust me they aren't elite. I can go DM 30-0 against scrubs, but go 0-15 vs good players. The skill gaps in Quake are fucking huge due to movement being it's own hill along with aiming, map knowledge, item management (this is actually abnormally huge as well) and situational awareness.

Ethan Richardson
It wouldn't work. Battle royale games only work because of skins but any Quake veteran would just force giant green man as the enemy and then nobody can see the kid's cool skin he bought for 20 bucks and that's the only reason why he plays the game
HEY BETHESDA CAN I HAVE UHHH DEDICATED SERVERS AND NO FUCKING ELO IN CASUAL QC PLAY SO MATCHMAKING DOESN'T TAKE FOREVER SO YOUR FUCKING PLAYERBASE DOESN'T DIE DOWN EVERY TIME >hahaha no we want to shut this game down, buy nuDoom2!
nu-Doom is fucking whack too. Any momentum you get dies down immediately so you have to move at the standard, slow as fuck, speed. I can't believe how many zoomers love it, it's slow as fuck
Kayden Myers

duel exclusive fags killed Quake TDM, DM, CTF, CA, Freeze Tag, etc. are all valid modes
Cooper Powell
No one played QL and no one played Quake 3 clones. Diabotical will be dead on arrival.
Ryan Wilson
i feel bad for tim, he was a big quake fan even he knows that it's over, and that bethesdazenimax has brought id and their intellectual properties to an irrecoverable state
Anthony Jenkins
uh there was a dreamworks ice sculpture exhibit a few years ago i think. was pretty big and i think they might have had an ice shrek.
Levi Robinson
>No one played QL I did, in fact it still has almost as many players as QC despite them putting it behind a paywall and trying to kill it with bad patches >and no one played Quake 3 clones. because they were shit, Diabotical actually looks good
Easton Hernandez
Cool story, faggot. I'm sure that you and another 100 players are actively playing QL.
Evan Kelly
>No one goes fast in duels What the fuck am I reading
Adrian Foster

William Nguyen
Not true at all.
Robert Wright

Angel Butler
This is good news. Fuck Tim. Quake is better off without this freeloading fuckhead who ran id into the ground.
>Quake pros are already not that impressed by Diabotical, calling it QL clone. source? so far literally every pro I've heard talk about it (e.g. cypher, strenx, etc) say it's great
Jayden Gonzalez
Why can SC player continue to play their SCBW without bitching about it being 30 years old game, faggot?
Nobody plays Quake because it's SHIT. Vocal retards who think that they are some fucking kind of "Quake veterans" never play it and in fact are the worst fucking Quake players you can ever imagine.
>Diabotical actually looks good it looks like crap, it's the gameplay, server binaries and map tools what makes it attractive. Sadly, all the talented modders and map makers left long time ago because nobody wants to associate with ESRetards like you. Even if there was a modding scene you would still shit on it because IT'S NOT LIKE 1999 DAMMIT ACHOOO.
Also, moving the release date each month is not a good sign. 2gd got fucked by this new quake league so he has to wait after quakecon 2020 to release his fuckin vaporware game but he's quiet instead of being honest and tell people to just wait a couple of years.
Owen Martin
>Why can SC player continue to play their SCBW without bitching about it being 30 years old game, faggot? because it got a remaster (and it's still dead as fuck btw) pros still play it because it still has tournaments, QC killed the competitive scene for QL
Camden Foster
>Nobody plays Quake because it's SHIT. Everyone I know who doesn't like Quake is just salty because they are bad at it, which you obviously are.
and Strenx is an aim god, certainly a lot more skilled than you or anyone in this thread
Dominic James
>it looks like crap this is getting pathetic, kys QC shill
Nathan Bailey
Thousands of people played it without any "remasters" and could easily continue to play it without any "remasters", dumb faggot.
They didn't change a single thing in a "remaster" and it's just a graphical uplift.
I could shit on your stupid acne face in 10 matches out of 10, I'd ask you to leave your nickname in QC and you'd dodge it, as always. I've seen it so many times already that it doesn't even make me laugh anymore. So instead of wasting my precious time, pull off your panties that you were using for 3 months without washing them and hit your face with them 10 times for each match that you've lost.
Elijah Thompson
>t. gaylord
Austin Wood
The first Quake game is the only one I acknowledge as a Quake game. The others are just spinoffs since they don't involve blasting away at armored knights in a gothic castle.
Nicholas Cook
And Strenx is a trash fucking player who never won anything. No one cares about aim and there are lots of players with good aim who'd never win Rapha. Why? Because just like you, those imbeciles have no functional brain and cannot understand that 1x1 Quake is not just about being an "aim god", but it's futile to even try to explain that to some literal imbeciles, after all you'd not even be able to understand such simple matters.
Blake Cruz
goodbye tim cuck champions cucked again
Michael Wilson
You don't know what you're talking about
Brayden Taylor
but it looks like crap user, it's paladins but with eggbots instead of waifus. and why are you defending the graphics when most of the players are gonna turn every graphic option to the minimun and play it just like q3.
Why go on the internet to tell lies? It boggles the mind.
Gabriel Carter
Saying "durr I'm good" doesn't mean shit if you keep saying retarded things
Cameron Hall
What lie?
Daniel Phillips
He's allegedly a big fan of q3a but never heard of QC despite the fact it's been released 2 years ago.
Jackson Flores
>I'd ask you to leave your nickname in QC >QC I already know you're a noob for saying QC instead of QL but just so you know my duel SR in QC was in the top 100 players back when I did play that shit game. If you were any good at Quake you wouldn't be calling it a shit game.
Ayden Reed
>And Strenx is a trash fucking player who never won anything. pretty sure he won like a hundred online tournament and came top 3 at many LANs but okay :)
Parker Green
It's me and how many Quake fans knows all the Quake games? Ask people about Quake 4 and see how much they can tell you.. Most wouldn't be able to tell you shit
They revived Doom, why shouldn't that work with Quake?
Nathaniel Stewart
this smells like he got pushed out. qc rage1\2 etc were big flops
James Morgan
I never played QL because it's shit and Q3 OSP was the last time I played Q3.
QC is the first time that I'm playing Quake or any multiplayer FPS games overall after 15 years of never touching it and even if I'm out of my youthful shape, I'm still scaring zoomer faggots like you because you are always dodging 1x1 against me.
Always the same, never change you chickens with no balls and LOW TEST.
I stomp everyone in pub QC even with the matchmaking
Josiah Powell
Because online shooters have way more competition nowadays. It's hard to get kids interested in a game if they get curb stomped as soon as they join any server
because instead of making a good game they >outsourced to incompetent developer >added MOBA shit that obviously doesn't work in Quake >game doesn't even use id tech engine >still no proper tutorials so noobs quit before even learning to strafe jump >no server browser >splitting playerbase across too many modes >made too many shit maps like Lockbox and even remade shit maps like dm17 the list could go on
is that really Agent?
Isaac Flores
Nothing a bit of marketing can't change. Quake simply has too much legacy to be buried. Just give it a decent singleplayer, bang the drum and the players will come.
Samuel Rodriguez
I like Doom 4 so I'm fine with that. I trust that team.
Jaxson Reyes
what's with this guy who keeps saying diabotical is "like QL"? what's a quake-inspired shooter supposed to be like?
Camden Gomez
This looks so bad.
Mason Walker
>shit maps like dm17 The only part I strongly disagree with.
Regardless, I played QC after over a decade of tactical shooters and it felt really nice. Abilities don't even seem strong and it appears that purists are mad they exist in the first place.
Joseph Murphy
honestly most arena shooters fail because they aren't enough like QL
>Reflex meme air control >Quake 4 meme crouch sliding >Quake Champions meme abilities
can't even think of any other QL clones, most "arena shooters" actually have garbage movement and weapons (bad influence from UT)
Xavier Sanchez
>performance is crap yep, go play reflex arena
Dylan Harris
QL is literally QL and guess what, it's dead too.
Chase Morris
>quitting he was fired "million dollar tournament"
Leo Lewis
Abilities were a good mix thrown into the arena matchup, albeit a bit unbalanced for awhile. HellKnight could two shot someone with a well placed rocket and tapping F and would shred anyone at close/mid range.
Robert Butler
i'm surprised anyone at all prefers lack of air control
Ian Edwards
Actually QL is literally Q3, but you wouldn't know about that zoomer.
It was also by far the most active arena shooter until they killed it to make people play QC.
Cooper Miller
Marketing only goes so far. Casuals only play "hard" games like Dark Souls. They wouldn't be willing to perfect their aim over countless hours in a game like Quake. At some point the barrier is simply too high, that's why the players like it but at the same time many wouldn't even consider it for the exact same reason. Why play the game if someone can do 4 perfect railgun hits on you and you didn't even see him? I'm not saying it's impossible, I just think it's unlikely
Landon Baker
>Bitching about color selection >Not the fact that quake fucking has daily quests now "Get 2 headshots! Pick up 5 megahealths! Get 3 kills with the rocket launcher!" >Not the fact that every character has different movement speed and stats and are locked behind paywalls or grindwalls >Not the fact that the abilities are literally wallhacks and damage over time attacks and shit >Not the horrendous performance and latency and hit detection problems ok
Samuel Brooks
>Actually QL is literally Q3, but you wouldn't know about that zoomer. Trying way too hard to fit in, kid. Also, QL has no gore. >It was also by far the most active arena shooter Sure, the game's average of 50 players was steamrolling the competition's 0.
Austin Sullivan

Henry Foster
wow they really fucked up this map didnt they....holy shit... god 1000 UPS rockets are way too fast
Dylan Green
Nice literal reddit comment.
Austin Brown
There actually is skill matching - the issue is that all the noobs and shitters quit and stop playing within 5 days, so you have no noobs and shitters to play against.
Eli Johnson
>player 1's skill: 31/100 >player 2's skill: 33/100 >player 2 wins by 20 frags, 23 to 3 welcome to cuck champions kek yeah really learn a lot losing 40-0 in 10 minutes oh wait they ruined QC so that it would only be 3-0, and then 3-0 again, 2 rounds :)
Gavin Wood
Battle Royale is a decided genre. Most of the recent entries have struggled. New BR games are not likely to have prolonged popularity.
Ethan Lewis
>Actually QL is literally Q3 I thought QL adjusted rail damage and has cpma movement
Jace Nelson
It has been dead since 4, maybe they will someday give it the Doom 2016 treatment but seem they only consider Quake a purely multiplayer franchise at this point.
DM17 sucks ass, though. I'll never get why the larger Quake Community likes it. There's far better maps (DM4 for smaller limits, for instance) to play in than "be a rail target or rail someone."
And I mean if you want to mess with railguns like that, there's Insta-gib to play on better playing maps.
Mason Campbell
Consider the following: youtube.com/watch?v=vR1SFN_bwwE You dont have to watch the whole thing of course. Just skip around. FAST fucking movement in duel.
Adrian Ward
>Actually QL is literally Q3 Yeah with loadouts and no gore kek
>Sure, the game's average of 50 players was steamrolling the competition's 0. even though it has much more than that, confirmed again to be talking out your ass, how embarrassing
Chase Young
Fuck off with your revisionist history. I remember being 30,000th+ in queue to log into QL. And they had something like 1.8 million (million) accounts registered. maybe more i cant remember.
Brandon Ward
It fascinates me that people think Hillary and the democrats have legitimate good will for illegals.
Michael White
>Yeah with loadouts I doubt you could find a single server with loadouts, but you don't play Quake lol
Ethan Perry
>never won anything. How quickly history forgets Shootmania
Mason Rivera
arena shooters will remain dead as long as the community (largely ex-gamers) oppose features that gamers will enjoy
Connor Kelly
I hope you fags realize AFPS will never take off with this bare bones anemic presentation only autists enjoy.
Camden Price
Arena shooter fans baffle me. They want new arena shooters, but never play them because they don't resemble the old games enough. You'd think they go back to playing those, but the servers are deserted, too. I have never seen a fanbase so dismissive of the games they're supposed to be playing. Fighting games are way more niche than arena shooters, and somehow they manage to skate by. At this point, it's safe to say you don't want to play anything. It's all about mere e-cred now.
Dominic Wood
1v1 aerowalk in qw
John Rodriguez
>mod Thanks for proving my point.
Dominic Foster
I've put thousands of hours into QL but haven't played it in years, played QC a bit but let's be honest it sucks, waiting for Diabotical now, no other recent arena shooter has interested me, you'd maybe understand why if you knew anything about the genre
Lincoln Reyes
>Xonotic >OpenArena >AlienArena >Nexuiz >Warsow >
Grayson Bailey
Yeah its not like republicans are separating children from their families, are detaining thousands of children in concentration camps, and are neglecting to give those children their basic health needs or anything!
Oliver Campbell
fucking checked and kek'd
Ethan King
i agree, they should be returned to the country of origin post haste
Xavier Brown
Also no new AFPS is ever a full game with a campaign, interesting setting or characters nothing, I think people forget this genre actually started as singleplayer than the multiplayer aspect consumed it and now its completely lopsided in this one direction which only appeals to hardcore enthusiast.
Chase Clark
>you'd maybe understand why if you knew anything about the genre I'm probably older than you, cunt. And I played the actual Quake 3, not this pussy knockoff.
Christopher Watson
So, simply because republicans don't care about them, democrats do? That doesn't follow. Since you've brought it up, what is your solution for the refugee and immigration crisis, then?
Lincoln Walker
Yeah it's weird.
Warsow and Reflex had everything the pro community demanded, and they generally refused to play either.
Dylan Anderson
>poopflex That's why Clawz trashed that egg-head retard in the finals and called him a joke many times afterwards.
Carson Adams
>games literally nobody has heard of >"lol why they dead xd" actual brainlet
QL isn't a "knockoff" it's literally a patched version of the exact same game.
Josiah Gonzalez
I wouldn't call myself an ARPG fan, but it is my experience that most all modern ARPGs are essentially budget titles at heart. No modern ARPG has had the quality and production values for its era that the classics did.
Ian Thompson
I agree. Back in the days, people would have never picked up Quake 3 if it hadn't been for the name. And even its tier based singleplayer with bots was fun to some extent. Multiplayer-only titles were an absolute novelty and id Soft took a huge risk.
Jordan Williams
Make it easier for illegals to become citizens instead of wasting time and money deporting them?
Robert Hill
>Fighting games are way more niche than arena shooters Lol no not even close
Adam Garcia
>called him a joke many times afterwards. kek sauce?
They put QL on steam after it was dead, and killed it even more with the loadouts shit. You really are clueless about this aren't you? QL was most popular 2009-2012
Jace Jones
quakelive's launch long predates its release on steam. and he's right, the queues in the early days were enormous.
Noah Jones
>Using Steam charts to prove anything Nigga, they weren't on Steam at all until like 2015. Try again.
Henry Long
nothing was ever good enough for you
you deserve it
Benjamin Nelson
>air control >everything the pro community demanded based clueless retard LARPing as a Quake player
Hudson Fisher
>Fighting games are way more niche than arena shooters ???
Lucas Jones
What they really want is a skill based shooter based on the old games BUT with newer inovations that couldn't be done back then.
Imagine UT2004 but newer and with cooler movement based stuff. Like Titanfall 2 stuff. But all the modern "arena shooters" that came out were graphics card package models over a simple, uninspired Quake clone. They feel bad because Quake was a good foundation, but not much more than that.
So in the end, it's all a big fuckton of meh. Like Diabotical. I don't fucking know what are they thinking with that shit, but if i've ever seen an inminent crash and burn game is Lawbreakers and that one.
Joshua Perry
Promode ring a bell?
Right back at you, LARPer.
Andrew Allen
Doom Eternal could spearhead an arena shooter revival if id plays its cards right. So many players are lured in by the singleplayer.
Lincoln Smith
Fuck I can't wait for Diabotical to come out.
Going to be the biggest case of I told you so.
Connor Miller
>implying quake was alive after quake 2
Jordan Kelly
Well, not anymore since self-proclaimed arena dads prefer bitching over actually playing.
Jeremiah Morales
>that egg-head retard in the finals what are you talking about? his """win""" against vo0? vo0 was a cpma god, he didnt waste much time on reflex. though he did win some reflex tournaments vs thump4 and sane and people like that. back in the day.
Kayden King
yes and it was never anywhere as popular as vq3 style movement
Quake 3 was more popular than Quake 2 dumb zoomer
Andrew Richardson
right because QC's graphics really brought people in! Fuck off totalbiscuit posting from the grave. All new arena shooters suck, all old ones are dead. People want to play them but most of the audience is playing apex legends / fortnite / pubg / csgo / rainbow6siege / mobas / autochess / starcraft
Josiah James
>2gd shows off some brand new game modes in diabotical >arena cunts are upset, angry and confused by their inclusion YOU DESERVE IT
Caleb Gray
Pretty sure this is just a bait post for guaranteed (You)'s but it's worth it to keep the thread alive
Ryder Barnes
The entire point of internment is to keep track of them until they can be adjudicated and vetted to assure there are not disqualifying circumstances for residence. The lack of resources and sympathy has caused the poor conditions in the internment centers, but the only apparent alternative is to let them enter the country and travel freely and until such time as they could come to court dates on the honor system for vetting.
Josiah Reyes
play path of exile, probably best ARPG quality based GIOYC user
Nathan Evans
I think he meant it in a way of "I didn't like it".
Personally, I played Q2 first and Q1 afterwards was a huge disappointment to me. The hit feedback is minimal and the levels are completely indistinguishable from each other. It was just rushing through a brown maze while cool music was playing.
Nicholas Murphy
There is no real indication that they intend for doom to offer an arena shooter multiplayer experience.
Kayden Scott

Literally everyone thinks Wipeout looks good.
I don't care about Instagib.
Ethan Flores
>Quake 1 is the best Quake >lol zoomer Do you fucking retards even know what your made up words even mean?
Jeremiah Collins
>All new arena shooters suck, all old ones are dead. And you are the ones to blame. >People want to play them Then why aren't they? Not even the classics see a significant amount of action.
Easton Foster
all i've seen is whining and "hahaha what the fuck are you doing 2gd" they're dead and you deserve it
>What they really want is a skill based shooter based on the old games BUT with newer inovations that couldn't be done back then. Halo already did that but PCtards hated it because it was on consoles.
Blake Young
>right because QC's graphics really brought people in! Well it did do a little better than previous attempts at this genre so I think it helped, QC got screwed by too many vets flocking to the game effortlessly stomping all the noobs and killing any chance for much a community to grow.
Michael Ramirez
It never came to PC properly you liar dummy dumbs They hype for the MCC on Steam was palpable, yo fucking know nothing and think your 3 wanker friends near your home are the whole PC market
