For people struggling with FPS, the LOD tweak makes a huge difference--doubled my FPS from 30-40 to 60-80!

Set it up the same way you do in TF2:

yo update with my download issue still looking to see if anyone has similar stuff going on

when i tried downloading this new patch it would download incredibly slowly and somehow made my download speed for everything else .1 Mbps instead of my usual ~75

so i tried my old fix of reinstalling the launcher and now the game itself downloads at a reasonable speed but everything else i do on my internet is .1 Mbps while the game is downloading

help pls and thank u

^ yep im pretty sure it just redownloaded the game again this weekend instead of doing a proper patch. there's no way in the bethesda launcher to limit download speeds which is super dumb. there'll be an external way to do it somehow though if you care much about it

ya i was aware i was just redownloading the game but i have no clue how their downloader manages to slow down my internet to .1 Mbps so i cant even load streams or anything

is it redownloading the whole game for me

and this is taking forever wtf

Anyone has 3-5second freezes every minute as well? I heard that the game is pretty badly optimized nowadays but come on...

the fact that this doesn't have airstrafing kills it for me tbh

installing now

classes with different hp and speeds are ok, but i really dont get why theres:
1. abilities
2. no airstrafing
3. syringe gun instead of grenade launcher???

i mean i can get over the whole bad movement thing but when i press 4 i want a grenade launcher not a blutsauger lol

this happens to me and i havent bothered playing the game because of it

Abilities make the game more interesting in different aspects,and (also) help balancing out the game. Because champions with nothing but just speed and health will be Quake 3/live with better graphics, and could be even worse because no one gonna pick slow Champions even if they have more health and armor.

Of course currently even with abilities, fast Champions are still dominating, but since the game are in beta, more balance gonna come so no need to worry

Not a syringe gun, but super nailgun, it was a Quake 1 weapon, i'm pretty sure they'll add more weapons later

quake 3/live doesn't have air strafing either, add it in will the make movement unpredictable, and top tiers like Anarki, Slash, Nyx,... become unstoppable

ayyyyyyyy hmu if you want a key.

Edit: gone.

does anyone notice from videos or even gameplay that rockets have some kind of delay and the rocket jumps feel off? They haven't addressed this at all...

Yes, it is extremely frustrating. Rockets are basically only used for spam rn because they're so hard to use.

This happens with all projectiles though, including Galena's health mines. For those of you without the beta, just imagine the stock 100ms interp while playing soldier in tf2. It's that bad.

Also I really don't get why the pipes aren't in the game.

is anybody else having an issue where for 5 to 10 seconds you wont be able to pick up any items and then you teleport across the map? It feels like rubber banding but it puts you somewhere random. It's been ruining duels all day for me :(

what are the fun movement champions?
and i see to be hitting a lot of shots that i shouldnt be hitting, and then hitting absolutely no shots against certain players

reg is genuinely not good
i like using rox but i miss a lot of rly closerange shit because rockets basically have 150 lerp (move fast but come out slow)
tanks are just bad/annoying at best
spend a lot more time looking at menus and queuing than actually being in game
last weekend galena didnt have a hitbox which was fun
lg slows u if ur on the ground like it does in the air so rather than lg duels being whos got better movement/aim its generally just who starts shooting first (especially against tanks/slower heros)
people dont choose campgrounds but the two other awful maps and thats not fun
nailgun/machinegun sounds rly similar to me so theres a good chunk of times i die to one thinking im trying to dodge the other
did scoped rails always do 100 instead of 80?
i dont understand why theres headshots if they dont do any extra damage
i also left a galena mine on top of a tele when i had a quad and it hit somebody for 450(?) which is hilarious

at the end of the day theres definitely a decent quake game somewhere in there but theres a lot of little things that make the game pretty unfulfilling

@above vizor/anarki i believe

they really just need to add CA so i can run around like an ape and dm stuff instead of trying to control the map

also locking duel until you have 3 champs unlocked is ????

you play as 3 different champs in duel

i am aware. until you have 3 champs unlocked you cannot duel. that seems pretty stupid. just unlock all heroes for duel mode?

idk it makes duel more interesting imo, but i see what youre saying

Anarki, Nyx, Slash, and Visor I believe.

Not in any other Quake, but so far in QC it has always done 100 when zoomed in since the closed beta started.

Thank you, I have already bought nyx but I'm wondering how you get more quake credits?

you're not gonna like the answer to that one...

You have to keep playing to get them, and then you can "rent" a champion, for I believe 24 hours? You can buy a champion with real money to have it permanently. I forgot how to get the other one.

Also here's a translated interview with Tim Willits from a month ago if anyone wants to check it out:

Forgot to post it but saw it again on discord lol.

what? how does that make it more interesting? "hey you actually cant use this champ even though it might be god tier in general or on this map" ...yea sounds sick
