Make it so there are no classes. I don't know if they still do lootboxes but take that shit out too.

If they had any brains they would completely relaunch the game along side a massive marketing push. There is NO reason a free game should be this unpopular. Its ALL on the marketing.

Also rename it to QUAKE. I know I'm going to get shit for supporting the le epic reboot meme, but it's not like there are any other quake projects right now and a snappy and familiar title is really what the game needs to make the normies take it seriously. Something that can cause a non-quake fan to say "oh this is the definitive quake experience? Maybe I should check it out" especially since it's free. "Quake Champions" sounds like a pathetic spinoff without any longevity.

Regarding the game itself, make all champions free forever, fix the garbage fucking latency (how do they expect this game to have a competitive scene?) and just get rid of the jank the game is full of. Its so fucking sloppy.

Nude Nyx skin tbqh.

Travel back in time and make a Quake game instead of copying the latest fads.

To be fair, the similarities to hero shooters are all incredibly surface level

Get rid of champions, add in a server browser, map maker, and weapons with 3 firing modes.

Sell nothing but cosmetics.

Enough to annoy the purists and not enough to bring new players. Loss-loss situation.

Also their netcode was beyond shit during the beta.

more Nyx

>Enough to annoy the purists
Ehhhhhh I don't know if I'd agree but to each their own

>Enough to annoy the purists
All a dozen of them?

It was a common complaint. Again, Quake purist will complaint about everything.

All 11, Jim died during the beta test.

I just played it this weekend for the free set of champions and holy shit is everyone bad at this game? I never played arena shooters growing up but I topped the leader boards twice in both of my pub matches. I thought I was fighting bots, so I asked in-game chat and they told me to die.

>implying bots can't talk

By playing it more instead of complaining about it being dead.

Yes everyone is fucking awful. I noticed it too. People ending up with like 3 kills

I hope you faggots logged in yesterday to get the free champions....

the game plays more like quake 3 now with the rebalanced characters and weapons

People just have to admit that arena FPS is a niche genre like anime fighters or rts.

These but delete the whole fucking thing and start from scratch

Quake 3 wasn't full of absolute jank and horrible latency

There's no lootboxes as far as I know, but there's battlepasses to unlock stuff during "seasons" and you get currency to buy unlockable cosmetics which is something I actually like. I do agree with the classes though

>Add Crash, Hunter, Lucy, Bitterman
>Fix Netcode
>Move to idTech
>Finish QOL (like being able to see your skins on your character in the menu)
>adjust platinum and shard pricing overall
>remove the longest yard
>continue adding new movement based mechanics for new champions
>neglect overly explosive and in your face active abilities in favour of more tactical and informative ones for new champions
>DEDICATED SERVERS

Most of these will help but the last point will guarantee that QC lives forever, if only in the hearts and servers of diehard QC fanboys.

it's a lot better than before when certain characters were OP and made choosing anything else useless.

This game doesn't have dedicated servers? What is it, peer to peer?

Kind of funny considering Quake Live is dead now which was the best way to play the game for the longest time. I blame them for putting a price tag on it after it was free for so long though. That killed the playerbase.

The game is fine, it just isn't 1999 anymore and Quake and Arena Shooters aren't as big a deal as they used to be. Its still the only one worth playing, Tribes and Unreal are dead and Egg Game isn't even worth mentioning. All they need to do is get back to actually marketing the game and maybe re-release the game/Make QC 2.0 on id Tech 7 to banish all the Saber jank

Everything connects to a central server. Even if you are playing with only bots vs you, and even if you load into a private match completely by yourself.

Its still janky garbage. I've been trying to get the "play 3 matches" challenge for hours now

I've had 0 issues getting that. In fact, I've had no server issues at all. The only real problem is that everyone plays like 2 different game modes and that's it.

So the most hardcore gamer on the planet don't have $10 to play their favourite game and prefer to larp on mongolian anime forums? Is that right?

anyone who gave a damn about it any point got it for free

You're making assumptions pal. My implication is that most of the playerbase wasn't interested enough in paying money for it and just played it for free because it was easy to just pull up on your browser and start a match without needing a good computer. I know personally, I didn't buy it simply out of annoyance at the fact that something that once was free had a pricetag on it and I knew the playerbase wouldn't come back. Well guess what happened?

>remove cosmetics
>remove ultimates this isnt overwatch
>remove passives
>remove character unlocking, all are free
>optimise the game more, include an option to turn graphics to legacy mode for those who are nostalgic (quake 3 mode)

>include parkour mode
>include costumes
>include speedometer
>include fun maps
>include different game modes to spice it up,
>include older maps but make it in newer graphics style
>include voice (not sure if it has it already)

Do you want cosmetics or not, retard

Also there is already a speedometer.

>Play a round of FFA classic
>It's actually fun and balanced
I know it's too late, but goes to prove they could have made a decent quake

Literally doesnt even know if the characters have voices, why are you commenting about how to fix the game if you havent played it?

>just release quake live with better graphics, it will surely work!

l hate Quake and what it did to videogames. Brainless piece of shit game, with no soul.

>He never installed Quake on the Highschool computers and had LAN matches
How's it feel to not live?

Unironically, I played the shit out of quake live back in the day

That's Half-Life user. Quake is still a skill-based shooter.

Anything is fun with friends, that doesn't make Quake a good game. Quake is a parody of what a videogame is, is a trash magnet that brought in more trash games with no soul.

So what's stopping you from doing it now? Or you think zoomers don't play it only because models don't have enough polygons?

>skilled shooter
>only gun that requires aim is the railgun
