>doesn't show numbers
5 more people joining a group of 10 is a 50% increase you faggot

How is it dumbed down? QC has every mechanic present in Q3/Live plus more.

Fuck saber i like the game but fuck theyre retards

>REMOVE features
Such as?

Unfortunately I think the game was always doomed to fail with the god awful engine they put it on.

>150,000 AMERICAN DOLLARS
Fucking how?

Quake loving boomer sponsors?

150k is chump change to Bethesda right now.

yeah with one mechanic per character....

Rapha vs cooller finals lets go

>Thoughts?
I hope we get to see starfield gameplay
fuck arena autists bunny hopping is a cancer "mechanic" and they will never be happy with any game they get because it won't allow them to relive their youth

Which is objectively more than the previous games. Does Q3/Live feature double jumping, wall jumping, edge jumping, crouch sliding, or dashing? No.

Reminder.

Would rather they just play Quake live, adding the champion schtick is such a downgrade. Also 150k for a quake tournament? Maybe I should just be a competitive quake player for now on.
not the user you're talking to but all the shit you mentioned belongs in COD Advance Warfare, not Quake. It's just fluff for new players. Which isn't a bad thing, just not my thing.

150k for esports, especially a world championship is nothing. CSGO was having 250K prizes every 2-3 weeks before rona, Dota 2 a little less frequently.

Sure, it isn't much money to a company, but why would they invest in a tournament scene for a dead game?
Yeah, but CS:GO has hundreds of thousands of daily players, meanwhile quake:champions

Edge Jumping and Crouch Sliding were in Q2 and Q4. Those other mechanics were in various UT games. Who are you to say they don't belong?

All the stuff he mention has more mechanical depth than bunny hopping cancer

Well, that user called it.

>Q2 and Q4
Oh the shit ones?
So? I don't like it.
>it's more "mechanically savvy" therefore its better
Nope

No armor tiers or even shards.
You get 15 free armor for every frag.
Mega spawns every 30 seconds

lol its basically the same group of players from quake live, ugh. there really is no way around it, theres just no way any newer players are going to catch up to their level because those guys have been at the top for over 10 years now. it gets kind of boring seeing the same names in the top 10 over and over again. i dont see any way around it unless they all decide to retire

I just want some Doom Eternal DLC info. It's been 5 months and all we've gotten was 2 pieces of concept art.

>Maybe I should just be a competitive quake player for now on
user, these guys have been playing for a very long time and you are never going to get on their level. the top 3 players basically destroy everyone under them too, like toxiq. toxiq has the best aim in the game and he gets fucking destroyed by rapha all the time, and raphas aim sucks

Daily challenges and the rune challenges iirc got removed
And backpacks as common drops

I also remember the stupidiest shit they did was that you can't buy the weapon skin you like directly. Say, you WANT TO GIVE THEM MONEY for the OG rocket launcher, well, better buy a shitton of gambling looty boxys

Those CSGO and Dota prize pools aren't even paid by the developer, it's all tournament organizer money. Think of 150k as the cost of 1-2 social media managers and even for that small a game, it's clearly worth it.

clawz won 2 quakecons in quake champions

>No armor tiers
Same as Q3.
>or even shards
Getting armor shards for kills rewards skill. Armor shard pickups were replaced with Skill Cooldown pickups.
>Mega spawns every 30 seconds
Q3 is 35sec.

At least there's some actual Quake stuff.
It's just become a Bethesda show; hell, when Doom, Wolfenstein and Rage don't even have anything coming up, it's barely even about FPSs.

>all that fucking Fallout and Elder Scrolls

The sad part about Quack Champignons is that when it works, it's good, really really good, and I miss the threads too.

>Same as Q3.
It was dumbed down then too.
>Getting armor shards for kills rewards skill.
Why should someone get free armor just for getting a kill? The opponent is already going to spawn with nothing.
>Skill Cooldown
Yeah, legal wallhacks really are a skill.
>Q3 is 35sec.
And that requires a player to actually do a little bit of math when picking the item up.

>most of the stuff is fallout 76 related

who the FUCK is even playing that piece of shit?

Daily Challenges still exist. Runes were turned into weekly challenges. All cosmetic rewards were changed to be directly purchasable with the over abundant Shards the game gives you, instead of relying on lootbox rng.

I miss the game. I mean, it's there, but where I live it lags a lot with the people it pairs me with.

It's a really fucking good game when it works. When... it works.

I preferred quake live over champions.

>And that requires a player to actually do a little bit of math when picking the item up.
the math is the easy part, keeping track of multiple timings is the difficult part. i think i remember rapha saying he used to keep track of the fucking 50s too
