dod3f Quake live has much better netcode and stability, no bs overpowered heroes and a decent duel gamemode

admit that Duel is pretty lame to play, but they said that (in the latest stream) they gonna replacing CTF with SAC if the mode is popular enough. So i'm still hoping that they gonna change this mode later on

Kratatahow is this game going overall in ur guys opinion? do players prefer quake live or this

The champion with ability thingy is actually kinda fun to play, worth messing around
also the game is gonna be f2p anyway, so just try it

ok apparently as an original beta subscriber (i.e. one that got all the champions in the last update) we still have to pay EA price to get all the champions now -_-

I'm liking this new update just because the netcode doesn't feel near as shitty. I think it feels pretty good now and I'm not having rockets/rails/nailgun do no damage when I see the shots hitting enemy gamers. Also the new maps are very aesthetically pleasing. Doom Guy is also pretty fun. He runs at like a million miles an hour with his ability.

I don't think the new duel mode is near as good as classic duel but it's fun to play with friends who haven't played much Quake before. I'm a pretty shit duel player but if I play newer players to Quake in Quake Live I can roll them pretty hard without even chasing frags because they just put themselves in bad spots without realizing it. With the new mode sometimes I'll lose a few champions or a round. They should still have a classic duel mode though.

Not sure how well they'll stick to the schedule since there have been quite a few technical difficulties with the stream in the first match at least.

Also if you have quake champions installed and play sometime during quakecon you'll get an orange LG skin in game

*In Duel, mostly base on map, except some champions (note: personal opinion)

-Top tiers: Nyx, Ranger, Sorlag, Anarki

-Good tiers: Slash, Galena, Scalebearer

-Hmm tiers: Clutch, Visor, BJ

-Doom slayer is just added so no info

_________________________________________________

*Some explanation:

-Nyx: lowest HP, but smallest hitbox, fastest speed, can wall jump, have Ghostwalk (similar to cloaking, but completely disappear from the map) https://youtu.be/hitiPsobMT4
Very annoying champ

-Ranger: medium champ, fast speed, -20% self-damage (rocket, nail, tri-botl jump), can throw an Orb (deals 100dmg on direct hit, can teleport to its location => can telefrag) https://youtu.be/TGJpyi9Pxr0
Very strong champ

-Sorlag: tank, super stack, can bunny hopping and strafe jumping, spit acid (5 "blop", 30dmg on direct hit; has afterburn effect, 40dmg can't be extinguish) https://youtu.be/AFPoVPsNu7E
OP champ, not know if she will got nerfed, fuck Sorlag

-Anarki: light champ, small hitbox, CPM physics (bunny hopping and strafe jumping, but different and faster than Sorlag), has Health injection (full health regeneration, speed boost, +1 max health increase each use) https://youtu.be/vq72QxMDk80
Another annoying champ

-Slash: light champ, small hitbox, can Crouch slide (pretty much turn you into a race car, hard but pretty amazing to see), has plasma trail https://youtu.be/gQFeX76e8z8
Good champ, very fast, but she doesn't have "escape" ability like Nyx or Anarki

-Galena: medium champ, nothing special, except the Totems, similar to landmine, can heal yourself 50HP, deal 75DMG to anyone touching it, can place max 5 of them (can be destroy, but the totem itself also has 50HP) https://youtu.be/2d8l391u9nU
Situational champ, mostly effective on small maps, you can spam totems everywhere for free DMG and distracting the enemy

-Scalebearer: tank, but a bit smaller than Sorlag or Clutch, has Bull rush https://youtu.be/uNZsaQgcJ0g, 50% damage resistance, increase moving speed, deal at least 75dmg on hit and even more, base on how much speed can you get
Nothing much to say, good champ, you can escape or get some free kill with the charge

-Clutch: he's a weird tank, has biggest hitbox, but can use Dodge ability to move around the map super fast. His ultimate is Barrier, pretty much a shield that can block all the damage coming from the front (when attacking, the shield will down for a short time). Press F again (default ability button) the shield will be replaced by Mining Drill, a LG with no range limit (just forget about this one, it's useless) https://youtu.be/87T9cijePYk
Player preference, his massive hitbox is the problem, but he's still a flying tank with shield

-BJ: medium champ, lower hp than others, 25HP regenerate passive ability, Dual weapon active ability. https://youtu.be/gyCHUJj7fEw
He's pretty OP at first (because of the double firing rate) but after the nerf (down to 1.5), he's pretty much a no no champ

-Visor: medium champ, no speed limit (up to 1600u), have wallhack ability, 5s duration, 45s cooldown https://youtu.be/yq9nbHkJcFA
Not as you think, the wallhack is so quick that it just doesn't help you much, beside, it means that Visor doesn't have Escape ability or Damage ability, so in a direct fight, this ability is pretty much useless

__________________________________________________

Overall the balancing is somewhat good, except Nyx and Sorlag, no champion is completely dominating the others.

Edit: Clutch's HP in the clip is wrong, he's changed to 100/150

The duel format will get changed, only like a solid 5% of the duelers like the current format
As someone who has played against both of them I can tell you that currently clawz has better lg and rail than toxic

I appreciate the response and I have edited my post. How did you do in Sacrifice Mr. Botmode? I didn't watch any of Quakecon besides the duel final today.

Also I figured most of the top players don't like the new duel. The only people I heard complain about it were Strenx and Fraze and they seem to get salty and rant about stuff so I wasn't sure how serious they were about disliking it.

Unpopular opinion; I like the new duel format and I liked watching it and the sacrifices games a lot, probably my favorite esport to watch atm, above tf2/csgo/quake live.

Just bought QC, played a couple hours of TDM last night. Had a lot of fun, didn't see to many issues with poor hit registration, meet a few players who had shitty internet that were hard to hit since they were basically teleporting but other than that if I had stable ping and the other players had stable ping I hit them fairly consistently.

Definitely feels like the rocket splash is a bit small though.

Honestly it was some of the most fun I've had playing against random people in years.

Also my movement is shit if anyone would have some recommendations on learning it I'm all ears.

I'm really trying to get into this game but for the life of my I can't seem to get a consistent framerate or get rid of microstutters. If I'm by myself or off in a corner of a map somewhere I'm getting 144 fps, but if I can see 1 or 2 people I just start getting stutters and dropping frames. I've tried doing things like playing in windowed, playing on all low settings, playing on all high settings, playing on some low settings and some medium settings, downscaling to 1280x720, turning down resolution scaling or whatever, forcing on v-sync in nvidia control panel; just a mix of everything I could think of or what I could read on random forums and shit. I have a GTX 1070 Founders Edition and an i7 4790k. Am I missing something or am I just bonered until they push an update?
