Frazer "Fraze" Hockley has passed away (32 comments)
Posted by diegowar @ 21:19 CST, 22 November 2024 - iMsg
Repost from the announcement in the Kuachi Cups discord:

In Memory of Frazer "Fraze" Hockley

It is with profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of our dear friend and esteemed community member, Frazer "Fraze" Hockley. As one of the longest-standing members of our Australian Quake community, Fraze's impact was felt by everyone who had the privilege of knowing him or watching him play.

Fraze began his competitive journey in Quake Live, quickly rising through the ranks with his exceptional skill and unwavering determination, side by side with his brother and sparring partner, Camma. His passion for the game took him across the globe to Europe, where he held his own against and defeated some of the world's best players. His performances were nothing short of inspiring, showcasing not only his personal talent but also elevating the profile of Australian players on the international stage.

Beyond his competitive achievements, Fraze was a generous mentor and entertainer. Through his tutorials and streams, he taught countless players the intricacies of the game in an entertaining and easy to understand manner, always eager to share his knowledge and help others improve. His ability to talk while playing a the highest level was extremely unique and this made him maybe the most entertaining quake streamer ever. His contributions have also been instrumental to the community in nurturing new talent and brought us together with entertainment and highlights. His streams were more than just gameplay; they were a reflection of his love for the game and passing on that passion to others who shared it.

In Diabotical, Fraze was part of some of the game's most unforgettable moments, whether it was his streams, his tournament matches, or his interviews. His gameplay was a perfect blend of high-level competition and entertainment. Similarly, in Quake Champions, he remained an absolute beast, quickly improving with his grit and grind approach and then consistently defeating top-tier players, and ultimately coming in 1st place in AQL4.

On a personal note, every time I faced Fraze in a match, you could feel his determination in game. Yet, no matter how intense the competition, he always took the time afterward to share some words about what he enjoyed about the game and have a laugh. His grit and relentless pursuit of excellence were qualities I think we all admired.

Fraze's legacy goes beyond his accolades and achievements. I think I speak for all of the community when I say he was a beacon of inspiration, a mentor, and a friend to many. His contributions have left an ever-lasting mark on our community, and his absence will be deeply felt.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family and loved ones during this difficult time. Rest in peace, Fraze. Thank you for the memories, you will be missed, but never forgotten.

Picking CPMA vq3 would split the community as you can see at the votes, most OSP players will NOT play CPMA vq3 for several reasons like different physics, sounds and spawn system.

All those guys dreaming of changing the community to CPMA are a bit naive. Haven't you noticed that we had this discussion so many times already? Do you really think it would help the community when let's say half of them would switch to CPMA vq3 but the other 50% would still play OSP? That would also result in less available servers as probably just a few admins would change their servers to CPMA.
Either CPMA cpm for CPL or OSP vq3. CPMA vq3 would be a really bad choice as the community (OSP) would not follow at all.

I think a CPMA/CPM tournament would be much more interesting than an OSP one.
Most good OSP players left OSP for q4 and started practicing it.

I think the CPMA community seems bigger and more active than the OSP community, and it have been that way for quite long.
The CPMA masters tournament had many new and oldschool cpma players go back and play the game (vo0, rat and so on). This way I think there's going to be better games to watch, generally an higher skill level and last, but not the least, a change, something new.
CPMA never got as much attention as OSP did.

OSP VQ3 as long as the CPMA VQ3 physics aren't excatly the same.

so is the sound system and the netcode imo. i don't know what it is, but the shaft feels weird. i've been playing truelightning 0.0 for ages and even on 70-100ms in osp, but the cpma one with the nice netcode behaves weird. played on 40-50ms last night and the beam noodles around :p as usual when you turn, but it feels weird the way it moves back on the crosshair. dunno, anyone noticed the same? :<

Was more talking about the fact that a shaf totally straight is no skill at all.
In q3 osp, even on Lan, the shaft isn't straight, that's why a lot of people use truelightning 0, to aim with the beam and not with the crosshair.

Except that it's not a bug at all, I consider it's a feature.
The beam has just a little bit more latency, and it's adding a lot of skill to play with it.
Anyway I don't know why you're talking to me about cs.
You're playing q3 right? Then you're using that 'cs' feature till you play it.

I actually have a 12ms connection.
And even on lan, you got a latency. Even on local against a bot you do have a latency, so I really think that's a feature.
By the way, that latency used to be a LOT more important during the q3test days, that's why I believe it's a feature.

Zerg-Spirit is right, there is a build-in lag and that's why everyone is using (or should be using) truelightning 0.0 doesn't matter whether it's online or LAN or listen server or SP or whatever, there's always a delay and the additional ping.

its not entirely straight on LAN in CPMA either. try TL 0 on lan. it still lags behind the crosshair. however, it doesn't lag as much as OSP online so basically it feels a lot better and higher TL values may simply give you a nicer visual cue..

the whole idea of truelightning 0.0 is to see the shaft where it actually is. truelightning 1 is fake, that's why I play with 0. even with low pings in OSP (also LAN, listen servers) you'll notice the delay and you can get a great feel for the shaft with tl 0. however in cpma it feels different, and I'm not really sure what exactly it is.

Truelightning 0 doesn't show the shaft where it is, the true position is somewhere between 0 and 1 depending on your ping. You'd be much better off with a higher truelightning value in CPMA.

TL 1 is client side shaft.

What I meant is that the hitsound isn't clientside. Actually I'm not even sure about the blood. I mean, you NEVER see blood when you don't hit the guy, for example when you're aiming the guy in TL 1 but you're not hitting him, there's not blood or hitsound.

Yeah well, I'm now pretty sure that the blood isn't 'client side'. You see blood ONLY when you hit someone for real, for the server.

blood is client side and you cant trust it, as for the whole tl 1/0 thing i play cpm and use 0 i find using 1 feels wrong and doesnt alwasy hit even when it looks like it is, this is on 15ms also.

Alot of ppl seem to be missing the point that cpm netcode does actually do 'much' if you're on sub 30ms

Well I don't know about cpma at all, as I never played it. I'm speaking about osp.
But what you mean about 'blood is clientside'? That everyone you're crosshair is on the ennemy and you click, no matter you have 500ms or 2, there's some blood spilled around?

Well, to be honest, I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way in osp with the shaft.
As I said, with TL 1, when you're shaft beam is on the ennemy but he doesn't got hit, there's no blood, i'm pretty sure of that.

because it is not clientside
mods which have modified netcode have broken the blood feature. it's not blood's fault ffs.
blood is predicted and should be true, unless incompetent people mess with the code on one side without caring the other.

What is your point? that what i said isn't true?

My point is that technically, prediction is to be *correct*, *unless* there is an exceptional situation of data loss, and even then it can still be correct.
Nobody would be complaining about them if blood bugs were due to packet loss or anything similar.
They're due to mismatch between server and client code, and this is the responsibility of modders, who mess things up and think they're leet.

Hahaha reading back on this in 2008 makes me laugh:D

Also, there is no beam:P

The beam is a visual effect with machinegun you have to lead too with high pings.

Shaft is a hitscan weapon, it does a straight forward trace to scan for a hit, but there is lag so ofcourse you hit where you aimed at and shot let´s say, 50 ms ago.

If I´d create a railgun that would shoot 50 times per second, you´d get the same as with shaft, however there still would be no beam, however you might still have to lead because of LAG.

I use 0 for OSP. I understand that. But if CPMA is unlagged, then why use it at 0? It is disturbing knowing if you use 0 in CPMA, you end up having to aim ahead yet if you use 1, you don't need to. It seems like the netcode adjusts to whichever setting you set it to - (0 through 1).

It's not unlagged in the sense of mods such as Unlagged where the client tells the server where and when the shot was fired and the server winds things back so that person's shot hits.

I personally play cpm, but I wouldn't mind seeing vq3 as long as its played in the cpm mod.

I think playing vq3 in osp would just be stupid. It's an outdated mod that won't ever get updated probably ever and even when it was last updated, cpm still had superior features, a big one for me being netcode. I could never stand playing osp with its netcode, even though it was alot better than baseq3, but it was always the guys with 30 ping and below owning it up.

Now that some guys are playing cpm vq3 I am starting to show an interest to it, and it is pretty fun. I don't care which is played, cpm or vq3, but for ffs don't use the osp mod. And with an active developer I'm sure arq could do whatever to make you osp guys feel at home :) so just give it a chance.

Most OSP players will NOT switch to CPMA VQ3 as long as the physics aren't EXACTLY the same. We had this discussion already several times and it would be a very bad choice picking cpma vq3 over OSP.

And it seems arQon won't change it, therefore you can only choose OSP atm.

shut up

"large enough", you move a tad slower if you can't cricle jump properly and a few units in height difference that affect no jumps at all.

Everything remains the same, racing lines, 'trick jumps' (hub LG to RA can still be done in one jump iirc).

It's like saying it shouldn't be used because toxic will have an advantage due to better netcode!!!!

imo, this discussion is just a fight between biased cpm-player and biased osp-players.. with a few neutral newcomers ^^ ..but remember that its the cpm'ers that are invading the osp-players home, and not the other way around.. sure, the osp-physics may be caused by some sloppy programming, but it sure doesnt show up as a regular bug since everyone is affected by it at all times while playing, and thus learned to love the "bug" and live with it :p

actually, speed strafe jumping is what is mostly fucked up in cpma. getting much speed in real+normal+default+classic q3 is actually more skillful because you have to know the tricks of the trade and those aren't obvious.
in cpma strafing there are no tricks, no specials, it's plain and flat. you can't get much speed out of it, you hardly feel the push and the grain.

note that i don't care about that in frag based competitions as the one we're talking about here. that thing doesn't need to be tricky.

By Poland Camping Gaz®  - Reply to #556
Try any map with vq3-mildly-easy strafe pads

I suppose you'd like some technical details because you're prolly lazy (to have never tried before and prolly being assuming things).
to be very sketchy, due to how things are implemented in vq3 acceleration is a constant +1ups per frame, that's up to speeds you don't reach in real games like +1600. it's a constant +2 ups per frame at low speeds (first 2 jumps).
In cpma acceleration isn't constant, it starts at 2 and diminishes rapidly under 1 say in 1.5 jumps, then continues going down and down. it's much worse than that even since the maximum acceleration (lower than vq3) is completely unachievable by real people. real people will get an average of 1.5 in the first jump or so, quickly going down to values like 0.5 and ridiculously low acceleration at high speeds (actually none reliable, you can only try achieving something in a straight line).

Why doesn't arqon tell people that?
that's what people whine about when it comes to cpma's cq3 being different, it's much weaker strafing.

they're probably aware of this more or less, probably less than more since they claim there is no difference :)
there are many simple solutions to this issue which would not require fps dependency to be brought back at all.
it's possible to have exact 125fps physics with variable fps thru careful implementation of a few calculations.
but the point is i doubt arqon wants the physics to be the ones of 125fps, he wants it his way i.e different.

now as i said, it's not very relevant to tdm or 1v1 games.
i'm not against cpma cq3 being the mod used in this cpl.
i'm just mentioning that some arguments for it should remain unsaid because they're untrue :).

it's perfectly playable and not as bad as people say (netcode wise), they just believe anything less than CPMA is unacceptable and sub par.

There are a few key things that would make it a lot better, MVD, Netcode and the better GTV support but apart from that it is fine.

Not as good though.

Actually you never needed 6 GTV specs anyway, the GTV server can be chained into several more GTV servers say you connect 2 GTV specs (one spectating each player) and chain those to say 10 GTV server each who can hold say 300 to 500 GTV viewers each (depending on bandwidth) means we can easily come up to 10x300 or 500 = 3000 to 5000 GTV viewers for each GTV spectator (a total broadcast for 6000 to 10000 GTV viewers, I'd like to see that done with a live videostream for a decent price idd) sure you get another 30 seconds delay for every chain you add but the experience is way better anyway, the videostreaming can't really compete on this if its done properly I watched the tsncentral videostream for covlan and dreamhack 2006 and seriously it sucked dead donkey balls, sometimes the sound lagged, sometimes the video lagged sometimes you had video but no audio, sometimes you had audio but no video and sometimes, actually alot you couldn't even connect to the stream at all.

The text seems biased. It should be relevant to the competition (for the vote is for the best competition option for CPL) but it points out "netcode", "presentation site", "no dowload site" ( which make it sound like its impossible to download); is "FPS independent physics", "active developer support" relevant for the CPL tournament?

If you read the descriptions it feels like voodoochopstiks voted for CPMA VQ3 and really want it to win this vote. If you cut all the non-tournament stuff you are left with:

OSP VQ3: Your standard vanilla quake 3 gameplay with the match and competetive features of OSP. Has been used formerly for ESWC and CPL.

CPMA VQ3: Your standard vanilla quake 3 gameplay with the featureset of OSP + some new additions.

CPMA CPM: New CPM gameplay with the above features plus gameplay changes such as new movement physics allowing for air control, ramp jumps, changed weapon balance/features and different armor system.

It does not suck, just like GTR for quake 4 witch IMO was the most promising mod of the q4max/XBM mods. GTR tried to fix alot of issues and to improve the game for competitive play with testing of veiwheight and weapon damage etc. But it was shot down because it was a gimmick mod(same with XBM for no reason at all), not that I called it that, because it was the picture given by other mod creators *cough*, to support their CPL campaign. Now they are exactly in the same possition now, just at the other side of the coin. Yet Cpm is not viewed as a gimmick mod, so should GTR never been viewed as one, and we could actually have seen a 10X better Q4 that the one we are playing now if it was not for that reason.

Well, one of the main arguments for Q3 over Q4 was the bigger support from the community (let alone being a community there for Q3 at all). CPMA is technically the better mod, no doubt, but the standard-mod for Q3 is OSP and therefore we should go with this. CPMA default should be VQ3, but as long as it's CPM OSP is the mod to choose.

The default gameplay in CPMA is defined by the server admin. If the admin wants VQ3 to be the default gameplay then the admin will set VQ3 as the default.

Maps can always be changed back and forth giving the tournaments new challenges, I don't think it's nessecery to have a new or updated mod just for the sake of it, I always considered OSP the best thing since sliced bread, it brings order and boundries to play within. The past years we've seen Quake 4, unreal tournament 2003 and 2004, painkiller and many more which none has reached the level of Quake 3 or osp in the terms of GTV, coverage, irc bot reporting or anything else, the fact that quake 3 just runs even better when you get a new computer/graphics card does not have a negative impact either, sure those newer games are nice but they need some mature time and consider the timeline for a game publisher it won't be within the next release and hence another game on the dump, just my .2 euros

"CPMA VQ3: Your standard vanilla quake 3 gameplay with the featureset of OSP + some new additions like improved netcode, FPS independent physics and active developer support, the last version was released a few days ago and there is no sign of featureset development stopping"

Improved netcode ?
Fps independent Physics ?
New additions, what new additions ?

Sounds like cpma without that crappy armor system to me...

I don't wan't nor need new netcode, neither did I ask for fps independat physics or any new additions, now counting out me since I'm obviously not a pro-gamer what would cpma vQ3 and thats being developed bring to the proffessional gamers and the audiance ? Seems like the pro didn't ask for it and the audiance being me, has to download a new mod more frequently just to be able to watch the games or play some.

OSP has not been thru a major update since the spring of 2003 when 1.03 was released meaning that I have not been forced to download anything for 3 years now if you call that bad compared to constant updates all the time.

Yes mvd is nice but not a reason to further develop the mod, theres a simple saying

"if it ain't broken why fix it?"

Really my opinion has nothing to do with it since I'm not a professional gamer and it's just an opinion nothing more, nothing less.

So if we look back how many cpma tournaments only for professional gamers have been held the last three years compared to the OSP one ?

Maybe it's just my flavour but I cannot recall a single one.

Yes Europeans probably preferr OSP over CPMA for a reason.

One quick checkup in all seeing eye finds 114 CPMA servers (all categories) and 506 OSP servers (all categories)...

It's more like OSP with those features added, but I guess you are too simple to piece that together.

"I don't wan't nor need new netcode"
People that don't live in Sweden would benefit greatly from improved netcode. Seriously, I'm on west coast USA, and most players in my country are on the east coast. Now, the catch is is that there's a GIANT FUCKING PLAIN that magically adds 60+ ms to your ping. Playing coast to coast is acceptable with CPMA (vq3 and cpm), but not with OSP.

People voting OSP should consider more "removed" players.

VQ3:
Same old maps again?, no thanks. If VQ3 gets choosen then it needs new maps to be played. VQ3 has gotten pretty boring to watch.

About OSP and CPMA, well the second one is the obvious choice since it's still being updated with new features, improvements etc. and has a superior netcode.

imo.

I would gladly change my cpma/cpm vote to cpma/vq3 (or cq3) if the majority want's slowmode to be played. And yeah I'm aware that SOME osp players can't cope with cpma either because they can't make the 1% harder jumps(literally), can't get their old hud right away or simply hate it because it doesn't have the OSP name.

The reason I want the cpma mod to be used is simply because it supports multi viewing (mv) on gtv and in demos. There's nothing I hated more than watching an osp match and having to cope with wathever the gtv spectator wanted us to see.
Oh, and the random overbounce jumps have been completely removed in cpma (they happen 1/20th of the time when a player falls to the ground and boosts speed in either horisontal or vertical direction, depending on how the player hit the ground)

I pick OSP because...

I have never liked the "improved netcode" of cpma. I like OSP's just fine, and have played cpma for a couple of weeks with no OSP.

How many CPMA american servers are there? Like 5 that aren't passworded IF that?

GGL servers are on OSP. Good selection, quality ping.

Spawn system, definatly huge.

Do you really think it would work? 2 cq3 guys go to play, random CPMA player comes on, and tries voting it to cpm forever. Much drama ensues.

And you know that Arqon would take out the count up timer as soon as the CPL picked it, lawl.

cpm vq3 physics =! osp vq3 physics

... whether you consider them "fixed" or "better" (that goes for the spawn system as well)... therefore osp should be used.

besides, what exactly are these critical features that osp needs and why would it need continual development and support? the netcode may be worth it, but that obviously doesnt matter on lan.

osp is already tournament tested and ready. its a finished product.

Critical features needed = decent netcode.

Osp is just like pk or q4, it cannot be played with 60+ ping and still be enjoyable.

That single fact is enough to vote cpm vq3 over pure osp imo.

You can almost achieve 40% lg consistently with 70 ping using cpm, a thing you wont even do with 30 ping in osp.

The fact that arQon is available to maintain CPM is also another huge factor in this....

CPM would enable americans to play east vs west a lot more than any other game so far, that is a major plus for our definitely small 1v1 community.

I don't know why people talk about the lg, since it's not antilagged at all afaik. If it was, you wouldn't need to lead your target at high ping. I guess the increased percentages might be down to the weapon tweaks, rather than antilag.

for Online tournaments: If all has the same ping this is not an issue anyway,

For LAN events like CPL: Who cares, lag is really not an issue anyway.

>You can almost achieve 40% lg consistently with 70 ping using cpm, a thing you wont even do with 30 ping in osp.

and this does not strike you as odd that there should be a diffrence between 70 ping and 30 ping ?

>The fact that arQon is available to maintain CPM is also another huge factor in this....

what do you think I'm worried about cpma for ? that moron totally ruined the effort when they implemented freezetag a la cpma style, barrysworld run with it for a season with half the clans eligble to play because the community didn't accept his side of the game and the second season they were back to OSP which then had implemented a decent freezetag mod. The sheer physics of cpma makes me seasick and sure I can probably adapt to it if I gave it time but seriously I don't see a need when OSP is around.

What it comes down to is what flavour you like and I don't like cpma simple as that

>CPM would enable americans to play east vs west a lot more than any other game so far, that is a major plus for our definitely small 1v1 community.

Can't really argue about that since I'm european but I know that OSP has been used for many years for online eastern vs western europeans aswell as LAN events successfully and sofar it just works and despite the ping issue they can still kick ass anyway.

Like I said before if lag is the issue why don't try alternate fire which has a delag option available, should be good enough for east vs west coast tournaments.

he was making a point bimbo. he is saying the netcode is so superior that you can attain 40% LG with higher ping compared to osp.

By Quake peterg 
Honestly it's quite sad to see OSP VQ3 winning. It reminds me of the Q1 community split between NQ and QW in North America(NA from now on). If everyone had switched over to QW we might have a fairly big QW community still like EU does. Instead NQ is totally dead, and QW has just a few players left. For comparison the EU QW community still managed to have ~60 TDM clans during the last fall/winter season. QW was the game with a future and it did indeed last much longer in NA than NQ did, but in the end still losing lots of players who never moved on from NQ hurt it a lot. Especially as many of the best players were NQers who instead moved on to Q2/Q3 to pursue pro-gaming.

OSP VQ3 might be decent in the short term but it really has no future. At the very least the CPL should use CPMA VQ3. CPMA CQ3 would be even better as it adds more depth and strategy to the game. CQ3 TDM would be much better than VQ3 TDM. Of course picking CPMA CPM would be the best choice. I don't think it's a coincidence that over the years popularity for CPM has grown.

However if TDM or CTF doesn't grow(or come back) for whichever mode the CPL picks I don't think the NA community will have a good future anyhow. Just having everyone dueling makes for a shitty community. I'd really like to play some TDM for whatever gets picked.

2 observations i've made:

Ths people who vote for osp *mod* are voting for it because they are used to it, not because they think it's better. The cpma (vq3) spawnsystem is better. Physics are better. Sound. MVD,HUD, netcode... It's what vq3 is *supposed* to be. I bet if osp didn't have the PM skins,, people would be voting against cpma because of that too.

The other one is that people who prefer vq3 haven't really tried cpm. One or too have, and sure i respect their opinions, but the majority seem to have just given it one try, got wtfpwnt by someone who knows the game, and then decided nah, CPM sux, whereas the entire CPM community started out playing VQ3, and only after a while started with cpm, and then based on knowledge of both, decided that cpm is better..

cpm vq3 physics aren't the same as osp. that right there is enough to not vote for cpm vq3. people here make the cpm mod sound 100 times better than osp and that only idiots would select osp vq3. also, it's not as if osp can't be updated. I like the cpm mod and cpma, but i prefer vq3 for gameplay--and gameplay is the most important factor. when bridge to rail jumping becomes dodgy in cpm vq3, then gameplay suffers, which is more important than netcode/mvd.

Indeed

Picking CPMA vq3 would split the community as you can see at the votes, most OSP players will NOT play CPMA vq3 for several reasons like different physics, sounds and spawn system.

All those guys dreaming of changing the community to CPMA are a bit dumb or naive. Haven't you noticed that we had this discussion so many times already? Do you really think it would help the community when let's say half of them would switch to CPMA vq3 but the other 50% would still play OSP? That would also result in less available servers as probably just a few admins would change their servers to CPMA.
Either CPMA cpm for CPL or OSP vq3. CPMA vq3 would be a really bad choice as the community (OSP) would not follow at all.

But this vote is not the deciding factor that CPL will use anyway, it's more reflection of how the community looks at the two mods.

A real decider would be if you asked the invited/Signed up players that actually should play the CPL tournaments.

Most professional gamers I know of and know do not like any kind of lag compensation because it usually makes the game more unpredictable in their view (even on lan games), pherhaps it's a good idea to use lag compensation for online tournaments where the participants are very far from eachother and such tournaments where the server is fixed (Otherwise you can always choose 2 diffrent servers with similar ping advantages/disadvantages, this is how its usually done on clanbase and the latency is a problem for any of the teams/Players).

what makes lag compensation more right than no lag compensation ?

There is no simple answer to the issue anyway I can only speak from my own experience and I need some of the lag to get the right gameplay feeling, and I don't think I'm alone on this either.

Anyway if 90% of the active players, counting in professional and amateurs like osp for the feeling it gives them when playing it seems pretty stupid replacing it with something that 10% of the players for their feeling, seems to me they are a minority anyway you count it.

No seriously, if you could do cpma _exactly_ as OSP (minus the netcode crap and all the other shit that no one cares for anyway) there wouldn't be any issue but it's thats why we have this vote/discussion, personally I would want the exact same physics, to get the exact same feeling when playing it as I have with OSP, if it's not the same it will be a new gameplay and sorry I don't need that.

Fact still remains, the ones that use and like cpma is very much fewer than the ones that do like and preferr OSP, Like in my other post, OSP servers outnumbers CPMA ones with 5 to 1 worldwide for a reason.

There's some kind of a new gameplay with CPMA vq3. In OSP vq3 you can move a bit faster and jump higher and therefore every jump is a bit different in CPMA vq3. Some jumps are harder to do it in an official match (with the nerves) and could decide a game. Additonally, the spawns and sounds aren't identical 2.

For one, I see the OSP physics being much more "easier" to manage and I don't think that contributes to true skill. Like I said in other posts, I could make a half-assed circle jump and still land on that rail ledge on DM6. That does not represent true skill or overall talent. CPMA however demands precision out of you which determines true skill and overall talent. And if a person misses a jump (deciding a game), that is his own fault and he would have to learn from that. The jump is 100% possible and there is no reason to screw it up. It's like saying newbs can't make the jump so we need to increase the pm_speed to 360 now so everyone could make it? BTW, this "issue" is still irrelevent to some "new" gameplay. You're still playing the game with the same rulesets but with even better and accurate physics at work so everything you do would be directly in the cause of your skill and talent.

I am most definitely sure the sound issue will be fixed if CPMA was chosen for CPL. I do not know why people are going crazy over this when arQon or anyone else didn't address this yet. The same goes with the spawn system - maybe it will be adjusted to OSP's style. It is for the sake of fair gameplay though so wait until arQon or a representative addresses this too.

And what's wrong with some correct changes? I mean, not to turn this into a sociopolitical flame thing, but you guys change the WORLD constantly by leaving traditions and turning to newer "modern" methods or whatnot YET whine about changes in a game? That's almost ironic.

I also respect you for giving a nice answer without bitching ;)

About the physics. We are playing OSP for years with this “buggy” physics. It doesn’t matter if it’s too easy according to your opinion or for noobs, it’s just that many OSP players don’t see a reason why to change it after years of playing it.

However, I’m more concerned about the facts, that it’s quite hard to change a MOD after years. I had so many times headache after trying to bring the more or less large Freezetag community to OSP. A large part of the Q3 Freezetag community is playing Baseq3 FT whereas Cups, Ladders or whatever official matches are played in OSP.
I mean they are playing Baseq3 FT, what nobody here can understand, including me. OSP is so much better, it gives you just headache trying to find a reason why to hell they are playing that shit Baseq3, but you can’t change it.

The same would happen with CPMA vq3. It’s nearly impossible to change the community to CPMA after years, especially when they have already a good MOD and if the “new” MOD has some differences in physics, sound, etc.

Can you see my concerns? Many active OSP players would like to switch to CPMA, but I guess the majority will not for different reasons. Maybe it would work when arQon would rename CPMA to OSP ;)

Cheers

Your first argument was that it was difficult to do the jumps and it could decide the game. Now you are retracting your argument to "leave it alone, it's been around forever". That doesn't sound compelling. If I may provide an analogy: You've been building houses using a screwdriver that's worn out and sometimes cuts you (somehow). You've been offered a more precise screwdriver that's been maintained and sharpened and reduces any errors by a large margin. But you prefer denying that new screwdriver and still use that buggy one? I realize this isn't the best analogy but in any case, it doesn't sound good.

And I dunno about you but I worry a lot about the tiny numbers. That means 123, 124, and 125 FPS numbers. They change and fluctuates throughout the game sometimes and that puts concern on me for not having the best jump heights through every jump? The only logical counter to this is having the FPS-independent physics in CPMA in which every jump would be invariable. I'm not sure how much this even matters or makes sense though!

OSP's freezetag is so inferior! :o You should be playing Ultra Freeze Tag (UFT). ;) However those baseq3 players do not compete and they play funky mod settings like fast rail + rail jumping + freeze. It's all too dumb and I would gladly not invite them into a real server. ;)

TBH, I don't know what would happen. You can't decide what would happen. If all tournaments chose CPMA VQ3, then it would make sense for everyone (those that actually compete) to adjust.

The same reason why 1.16 players don't port over to 1.32. They don't like the feeling. The same for me. But I forced myself to adjust and it worked. Now I like Quake 3 1.32 over 1.16. 1.16 was even more inconsistent than 1.32 yet 1.16 players refuse to realize that. Once I switched, I thought 1.32 was even more consistent (with OSP) and was entirely better. CPMA is another step towards consistency. I see OSP players just like the 1.16 players - they all whine 'cuz it's not within their comfort zone when CPMA is much superior and they will get used to it after a few days.

Not to turn this into yet another religious flame but... it's like saying the Jews and Christians won't convert to Islam because they think it's lame while it's clearly a more superior religion and they should be converting! :P (Islam supercedes Christianity and Judaism by family descendents).

I still rather wait for arQon to address the issues (spawn + sound). So everything else is on hold.

Cheers,
Cholie.

I think the argument was that it was diffrent, the jump thing was one way to illustrate that.

I've actually played UFT for some time but it didn't like the idea of the frozen bodies sliding around, also the physics are diffrent from baseq3 and osp, for me the most notable thing is that maps I've played for years and years suddenly appeared "smaller" Normally I knew that x numbers of strafe jumps to reach and make a certain jump suddenly was too short or too long depending on which speed you had when you started strafing towards it. Sure I could probably get used to it giving it enough hours but since I play so little UFT and CPMA why even bother ?

Freezetag is a relative small community but again I bet theres 5 or 10 to 1 for every UFT server you can find.

Cpma also has freezetag implemented, how many cpma freezetag servers do you know of ? I think I saw one in iceland idd

The reason why some don't switch from 1.16 is that theres always going to be console players playing Q3 and theres no update for q3 to 1.32 and or punkbuster, yes there was a slight diffrence in the way the mouse worked in 1.16 compared to 1.32 however if my memory serves me right there was one console variable that you could set to make it handle the old way so thats not the main reason..

As for the "comfort zone" we all play games because we like it, if we don't like it we don't play it,

I understand everything you say back and forth but to choose CPMA over OSP for your say its inferior and lacks development when most public servers use it about 10 to 1 in number is not something you can just wave off..

well my own machine is a piece of shit and can't get a stable 125 fps, which is one of the many reasons why i don't bother playing q3

and really, all this bitching about how cpma is too difficult for most people to understand really doesnt make any sense when you consider that the exact same group of people are also bitching that they enjoy a mod in which to maximize your movement ability you must be aware of a certain subset of magic numbers

if a new osp came out that silently introduced cpma gameplay with no ability to override it all you incompetent drones probably wouldn't even notice, and once CPL makes the official decision to use CPM VQ3 instead, then i'm going to have a lot of fun hanging some people's post histories over their head

Well if there is truly no diffrence between the two mods why not play OSP if it's all the same to you.

If OSP was still under development, and rhea released 1.04 (or 2.0) with the exact feature set and fixes of CPMA, you'd all by playing it like lambs. Admit it. I doubt anybody, let alone the majority of people would vote for the 'not broken' 1.03.

Similary, if CPM was released in VQ3s place, and somebody came up with a mod named 'promode' with VQ3 gameplay, nobody would play it. I doubt one person would be playing it today, let alone a community the size of CPMA. Certainly the entire community would not switch to it because it's the 'better gameplay'.

I just don't understand the logic sometimes

Although I think I'd miss my good old OSP feeling at first, I think it's wiser to switch to cpm, which is by far a more complete mod.
I remember at least 2 OSP bugs that are really annoying:
*The 'you kill someone with gauntlet while he's on the other side og the map' bug. Quite annoying, even if it's very hard to do it in a real game.
*The 'I'm invincible' bug. That one happens quite a lot of times during ESWC 2005. Some players where strangely nearly impossible to kill cause they didn't take damages from rocket splash.

I think theses 2 bugs justifies the switch. Not to mention the best gtv support (at least I've read it so I suppose it's true=), and the very nice mvd. Morever, I kinda like the idea of both community (cpm and vq3 players) playing on the same mod.

The first one I think is usually a map bug not mod bug.

The second well, I think they shoot flies (Missed shot) simple as that.

I do know of sound bugs in osp , which prevents sounds to be played at times, usually it's the pickup sounds that gets cutted off on random occasions.

Time to look at the overall vote counts for osp versus cpma (the mods).

vq3 - 778
cpma - 1081

Let it be noted that out of the 671 people who voted for cpma cpm, around 95 percent would have voted for cpma vq3 if cpm was not a voting option.

Anyway you look at it, it is clear people are asking for the more recent and up to date mod cpma. On my cpma server we have 10/10 slots everynight with plenty of people dying to get on to play. And guess what they are playing...cpma vq3 tdm and 1v1s with the occasional cpmctf mixed in. The majority of players who have voted here have already discovered that cpma is the better mod, so let's use it for CPL World Season 06'.

There are only three options in the poll, which is already biased towards CPMA gametypes. You can't combine both CPMA options, since it's just as easy to say "more people are voting for VQ3 than CPM".

Unless the options in the poll are equally weighted (a straight choice between OSP or CPMA, or between CPM and VQ3), you have to take each option as its own entity. In this light, OSP is the clear winner (so far), and no amount of statistical jockeying is going to change that.

Or do you honestly believe that someone who voted for CPMA CPM would vote for OSP if it were a mod only vote?

The only purpose of the vote is to give a general impression, and the general impression is: vq3 as gameplay, cpma as mod.

If this vote would matter anything, you'd have to split it in two anyway, first a gameplay vote and then a mod vote, but since it doesn't matter, why bother.


/edit

ok, I see where you're getting at, but I don't think the difference between cpma vq3 and osp vq3 is big enough to classify it as different gameplay

Many people do.

What we need are two separate votes. The first: VQ3 vs CPM gameplay. If the majority wants CPM, the choice is easy. If the vote goes in favour of VQ3, then a second vote is necessary: OSP vs CPMA mod.

Those results would be far more useful.

Honestly I don't give a damn what is used as I'm not the one playing there. However please stop this bs that CPMA/VQ3 plays the same as OSP VQ3. CPMA/VQ3 may be better/fixed and the mod regulary updated, but all those fixes make it different. To name few;

- Physics: different
- Sound: totaly different (players who playd only OSP to this point and join CPMA/VQ3 will be annoyed that they can hear the enemy thorugh the whole map)
- Spawns: totaly different

In the end this means, that CPMA/VQ3 is indeed a new gamemode compared to OSP/VQ3, even tho, it's the same shit just fixed. Those changes/fixes should be introduced at the start of the game not 6 years into the game and noone would argue over this. As it is now, people who played OSP from the beggining have little to no will to lear their game from 0 again and to adapt to new things, even tho they may requiere only a week or less to adapt.

That said, if I'd still play regulary, I'd probably switch to CPMA, now when I hop onto a server maybe once a month, I'll stay with the old OSP as I'm used to it.

[q]Those changes/fixes should be introduced at the start of the game not 6 years into the game and noone would argue over this. [q/]

Why exactly? I see this argument coming up quite often, but I fail to see a valid reason for it. If you'd draw the analogy to real sports, the rules there get changed all the time, because unlike the e-sports community, the real world has realized that gameplay is dynamic and that the rules have to be changed from time to time to adapt to technical advancement, higher player skills etc.

And we're not even talking about major gameplay changes, only minor differences that don't effect the game that much (yes, one jump on one map that's a little harder will not make or break a game).

In either case, we are talking about pros here (this poll is for the cpl tournament, just to remind people), and the difference between VQ3 OSP and CPMA is miles and miles smaller than between Q3 and Q4.

This poll is pointless, the majority of people are unwilling to even consider change, hopefully CPL will do the intelligent thing and pick CPMA with either vq3 or CPM.

I have allways played OSP in the past before the fanboys start flaming, if one of you can find a single intelligent reason why OSP > CPMA (vq3) then i will change my vote now.

Many fanboys can display an intense obsession with the object of their affections. This is often shown by their devotion to a company/product/character, often to the detriment of their sense of veracity or critical judgment. This condition often coincides with bouts of heavy denial and a marked resistance to any type of meaningful or significant change in the status quo of the obsession.

CPMA VQ3, and lol at the people thinking that is a big difference between CPMA VQ3 and OSP, cpma vq3 is just like an updated version of vq3. I believe there are actually some idiots thinking that there that everything that has CPMA in front of it means cpm physics. So untrue. The spawnsystem is just the same as in OSP. The sound and every other "differences" are just trivialities that you adopt after a few games, most of the pros/oldschoolers hasn't played q3 for a while anyway, so changing mod to a better one is just about in time.
Also for tte specators CPMA will benefit with the multipov demos (MVD)

Also the changed, fixed or whatever physics isn't just a small difference. Try e.g. the jump to RA on CPM4 directly from the SG hallway. You can't really do it in CPMA vq3. Maybe this shouldn't be possible, but fact is, we are using this and many other jumps for years now and are using them also in official matches.

First, I'm all for CPMA CQ3, or even VQ3, although I could not choose CQ3 in the poll, so I had to choose CPMA/VQ3. (stacked poll)

I've noticed lots of differences you failed to mention. Keep in mind the changes, in *my opinion* could either be adopted by the players rather quickly or changed by arq. (doubt that from reading some replies by him about vq3 changes)

The biggest changes I've noticed is the spawn and the amour system. I've also noticed a slight difference in the physics.

My personal *opinion* is that these slight differences are well worth adopting to, although I can see the hardcore OSP players not wanting a change.

BTW, the bots do work in CQ3, in VQ3 they are disabled.
(just something I noticed while trying different modes)

I say delete the old poll, create a new one with CQ3 as an option
(and please disable anon postings), then we might get a better picture of things (at least from an ESR POV).

Load up CPMA, click practice, choose pro-q3dm6, change the settings to VQ3 (OSP).

ITS THE SAME THING!!!!! Seriously how many times does this have to be repeated before people start listening, it even says OSP in brackets.

The statement of I like it better is flawed because its exactly the same game except with more features like MVD.

If you cant accept that, fine, i give up, theres no convincing people

Im not flaming anyone, but its so frustrating when people like Cobs say:

NO it's NOT the same!!!

If CPMA VQ3 would be the same as OSP VQ3, there wouldn't be such a long debate for months now!

and have voted without reading this...

OSP VQ3: Your standard vanilla quake 3 gameplay with the match and competetive features of OSP. Has been used formerly for ESWC and CPL. Has not been updated in a few years and has no download or presentation site.

CPMA VQ3: Your standard vanilla quake 3 gameplay with the featureset of OSP + some new additions like improved netcode, FPS independent physics and active developer support, the last version was released a few days ago and there is no sign of featureset development stopping.

il put this in bold...

OSP VQ3 and CPMA VQ3 BOTH HAVE YOUR STANDARD VANILLA GAMEPLAY

There is no difference to the game except CPMA has current support and a better featureset.

You gotta admit its frustrating when people vote, post comments and stick up for something when they havent even done the research. All you have to do is read the initial post.

Im pretty much done here, vote for whatever the hell you want :D

chg: removed all pmove stuff and just fixed the damn physics
fed up with preserving retarded bugs just for "compatibility"
physics are now not only more consistent across FPS ranges
but also more consistent within themselves AT any fixed FPS
interestingly enough, this is also the first time in Q3 history
that jumppads have EVER worked correctly and reliably... :P

So the differences you are talking about in physics basicly means that you dont have to get a constant 125fps to get that extra height, its the same accross the board. I wouldnt really say thats changing the gameplay, more like making the game fairer for people who cant constantly get 125 all the time. (proberly not an issue anymore anyway :P)

I could go on, but i doubt were going to convince each other either way.

However, with the CPMA VQ3 physics some jumps aren't possible anymore or quite hard, like the direct jump to RA on CPM4 from the SG hallway.

You can tell us now the physics are bug fixed, but you know strafing at all was a bug. We are playing OSP and using some jumps for years now and having 125FPS isn't a problem today. Even the cheapest notebooks have 125FPS.

Additionally, there are sound and spawn differences. Furthermore, I'm not sure if the CPMA Netcode is worse or better...

    "Different" therefor bad because _TWO_ jumps are _HARDER_ as in OSP (and by harder i mean easy...I haven't played with vq3 physics in years, and have never played vq3 in cpma, and it took me all of 10 minutes to do the dm6 jump 50% of the time) , one of which isn't even of importance since it's from a tdm map (oh yes, this Poll is about what mod to use at CPL, just as a reminder).


    What it boils down to is the dm6 jump in duells, and even if that's a little bit harder it doesn't break the game in any way, nor alter gameplay in a way that makes the map unplayable, on the contrary. And for that you'd sacrifice stuff like MVD and better netcode (which is important even for the top players as not everyone has the time/money/opportunity to bootcamp before a tourney).

    I'm inclined to start a slow clap

    well the contributor is biased as obvious from all of his posts including the initial one but ok.
    Either way the frames and needing 125fps in osp vs not in cpma, well this was I think for what the cpl should use where I surely hope the players don't have to worry about having less then 125fps? As much as I'd love to agree with you that cpma vq3 = osp vq3 to stop having to type to you, it's not the same. Accept it and shut up.
    Also with people voting without doing the research etc etc. It's an opinion poll where they're giving opinions for what they prefer. Considering you think osp vq3 is exactly the same as cpma vq3 I'd be tempted to say you haven't done the research fully but again that's back to opinions. imagine that.

    I've read a majority of these posts, but not all.
    Lemme just say one thing.
    Unless CPMA/vq3's physics get changed to exactly what OSP is, then it won't be CPL's mod. It does not matter how SMALL the difference is, if they are running a VQ3 tourney, they will run OSP, unless CPMA is EXACTLY the same. Because your reasoning is that we aren't changing the game, we are just using a better mod...but yet the game IS changing.
    With that said........
    I think CPMA/cpm would be MUCH more fun to watch. People skipping around the maps, less aim/hitscan dependant. It's much more spectator friendly IMO.
    But my guess is that CPL is just going back to oldschool, and what has worked for tournaments for YEARS, the best FPS 1v1 game to date, and that is Q3 - OSP.

    (I voted for OSP just because I think CPMA/vq3 would be a mistake, if we are changing...let's change to CPM, but CPL will be OSP, you are fooling urself if you think it won't)

    I'm just gonna paste this quote by arQon:

    Yeah, the only people setting the "real" rules for OSP are id, which is fine in terms of core gameplay but does leave a lot of grey areas simply because of all the bugs in baseq3 and the features the mod adds. For instance, the dropped sounds fix in OSP way way back in the 1.17 days wasn't a gameplay CHANGE, but it has gameplay IMPACT. Likewise, anyone who doesn't think ProMode skins affect gameplay simply has no understanding of the concept at all.

    Decisions are made by the people who run the mod, and always have been. What's important is that those decisions are made in a neutral way and for the "greater good". If a bug leads to an exploit that certain players take advantage of, fixing that bug and closing the exploit is better for the game as a whole regardless of how much those players bitch about it or who they are. We've done that dozens of times in OSP over the last 5 years, and I'll continue to do so whenever I see fit, because otherwise we'd all be playing baseq3 still.

    >>> Not heavily modified q3 with air-control, bunny hopping, no timer, instant weapon switch, one-hit frags, and little thinking :(

    That would be the CPM gameplay.

    QW'ers praise their game because it has air control. Air control makes air shots a little more difficult and offers a variety of options in strategy and such. Thus that creates a more difficult game to learn from.

    Bunny hopping is not always necessary! Why jump if you don't like to? But of course it is encouraged if you're going to play against a speed competitor who runs and guns constantly.

    I do not know if I should agree with no timer or not - I admit it is strange. But to win a game, you must have precise mental skills for timing. I can see why they chose not to put a timer there but I do not see the problem putting it there either.

    Instant weapon switch allows for great combos and run and gun possibilities. It allows quick surprises and tricks. And with the natural speed of CPMA, it makes sense to have instant weapon switch.

    The only way to do one hit kills is through rockets. Not any other weapon can.

    Little thinking? You'd be sorely mistaken. :)

    That's what makes thinking less usefull... The game experience is all-aim.

    >>>The only way to do one hit kills is through rockets.

    It's extremely easy to spawnrape this way, sometimes many times in a row. I'm not sure why you say only rockets, it works with rail just as well. Or at least it did the last time I played cpm.

    >>>Little thinking? You'd be sorely mistaken. :)

    The more aim and speed, the less thinking. I'm not saying it isn't required, but it isn't that crucial either. Even in vq3 some maps required less thinking than others, e.g. ztn = thinking, hub3aeroq3 = aim, and dm6 = balanced between the two. And for instance all cpm maps fall in 'aim' category. B/c it perfectly fits cpmish way of playing.

    It is not all aim! It is also movement, timing, and tactical set ups constantly throughout the game. That produces control. That is why staying alive is *very* crucial in CPMA. It isn't so much for VQ3 but I am sure that will be debated to an extent.

    It's extremely easy to spawnrape this way, sometimes many times in a row. I'm not sure why you say only rockets, it works with rail just as well. Or at least it did the last time I played cpm.

    Rail damage has changed to 80. So no, it is no longer rail. However, the reason there's spawn rape is because people are just so eager to click their buttons. I'm not sure if anyone ever thought of that...

    The more aim and speed, the less thinking.

    It's funny that you say this. Now I begin to question your definition of thinking. What is your definition? If you say CPMA isn't anything close to thinking then one will also assume that skateboarding or skiing also simply does not require thinking. In fact, nothing does. It's all experience and skill, right? :)

    Here's one thing I find unsatisfying with CPM though - the map sizes are generally too small. If there's anything big and useful for CPM, it won't be so "aim-fest". Like you said, "hub3aeroq3 = aim". And indeed it is (though one will argue it is not and that it requires skill and map control to win and yes it is true also). If you played CPM3A in VQ3 mode, that game would ALSO be "aim-like". So it does mainly come down to the maps!

    Imo every map, every mod is essentially AIM. CPM is just more faster and mostly close quarters battles thus it may seem like "a no brains all aim all movement" game. Just because in vq3 you have more distant fights (altimes rail or something???) doesn't mean it somehow isn't aim game. How do you kill if you can't aim and hit? Hello people?

    I truly do agree. For some reason I had to argue in CPM's defense. But the truth is, both games require aiming. Any sport does: basketball - it's all about the hoops, racing - it's all about speed, tennis - it's all about aiming for the hit, baseball - it's all about batting a ball to homerun. So on. It's funny that people still accuse "it's all aim" when VQ3 is just the same.

    I didn't say that it's literally all-aim, but it's very much all-aim. You have to fire much while playing such sort of maps, almost constantly, so if your aim is better than your opponents', you'll win. And we all know that it shouldn't be true, there were many examples which proved that aim isn't the only factor that should be needed for victory. I won't start discussing q3 players to avoid flame, but just remember winz winning a ESWC 2k5 Ut2k4 event, I wasn't delighted with his aim to say at least, but still he won.

    Anyway I start to feel that this discussion is useless. The poll looks like an attempt to cheat. The option of cpma vq3 is included, and people are lied to that it's just the same as plain vanilla in order to make them vote for it (and not osp). And of course not everyone played cpm to know everything about it. It gets all too easy to lie. All of the three definitions for the poll look very strange to say at least, the author intentionally makes people think that osp=sh*t and it's stupid to vote for it. And then normal people who say 'osp' in the thread are being laughed at for choosing it 'for its name', as if they chose it for its name!

    Just be realistic. People have been playing OSP for years now, everyone associates competitive q3 with OSP. Switching to a mod so different would kill the game for majority. There must be a very important reason to suddenly switch to another physics, another spawn system, etc. There can be no such reason as long as OSP exists. As simple as that. And don't think of mvd now, it's not a reason. We were fine without it, and there are lots of other games without mvd feature. They're also fine. The same about netcode, it's good but not nearly as magnificent as people are made to think. The author says 'FPS-independant physics', but doesn't mention that it's very different from FPS-dependant physics. And you can download osp in a lot of places, to lie about 'no download site' was the lamest thing in this poll...
    And finally 34% of votes are for cpma cpm and 43% for osp vq3. Such a little difference looks untrue. You can argue that, but cpm fans must be anonymously revoting all the time.

    While I agree, it still leaves variety limited in one map. Usually it'd be two areas in one CPMA map or perhaps multiple *really* small areas within a map. It is too easy to jump from one side to the other and still spawn rape. I would like to see dying players actually have a chance at making a comeback by allowing them room to run away from the enemies. DM6, DM13, and ZTN have large rooms and areas so they can hide away and allow them to rethink their strategy or whatnot. But of course the maps would have to be geared to CPMA physics. An interesting part is that TDM maps in CPMA are huge while 1v1 maps are so small. Why isn't it more proportionate? I don't know much about map designs though so I will be silent. :)

    Eh, I've always thought some of the maps were a bit small, but regardless they still work.

    I'd just like to point out I played some Vq3 this week, and while I thought it was more fun then I had remembered at first, after about 4 games I was bored, and missed CPMA psychics.

    Vq3 revolves to much around humping your teammates, and popshots. Theres so much less toe-toe fighting. zzzzzzzzz.

    Besides if you can position yourself and hit a 35+ MG it's like starting with a freaking nuke.

    Also my thumb hurts form holding the walk key. And I didn't even play tonight.

    No it's not. Many ppl have voted CPMA CPM (for CPL) but would vote for OSP when they have to choose between OSP vq3 and CPMA vq3.

    The majority of OSP players don't want the CPMA vq3 physic changes, the different sounds and spawn system and therefore OSP is the choice for VQ3.

    As already mentioned, we had the discussion whether OSP or CPMA for VQ3 several times over the past months and the community (OSP) DON'T want CPMA vq3.

    it's pretty safe to assume (though don't) that 99.9999% of people who voted cpma/cpm either wouldn't have voted at all or would have voted cpma/vq3 if there was no cpma/cpm option.

    I can't believe that CPMA CPM is only 100 or so votes behind OSP, esreality has always been a CPM elitist biased site, but I wasn't expecting to see it get that many votes. I mean, there's like 50 people max playing promode at any one time of the day (based on ASE stats), and half of these people are playing team arena, and the other half probably haven't even heard of professional gaming :P

    Where have all these votes come from!? If they're coming from OSP players, then why is CPM still so dead in comparison to other Q3 mods?

    Before 1.33 I would have voted CPMA VQ3 hands down, but now that 1.33 has been released, I wish there was another option (CPMA VQ3 still gets my vote as a best-of-bad-bunch). Way too many bugs, a hud that makes the game impossible to customise on the fly, and wait for it, "tried and tested gameplay alterations by all 3 of the CPM dev team". Some changes are on the right track all-in-all, but it is not ready to be a CPL game. CPMA CPM is not spectator friendly, it's a spammy game to watch being played aggressively, and when and if OSP players start watching rat, they're gonna be horrified as to how experience can win over any strategy or developed skill....OSP made a great spectator game because there was so much strategy based on eventual outcomes, we saw people come back from the dead with pure skill and determination, not a run of lucky spawn frags.

    Didn't read all the comments, but a few stood out, especially the ones about how CPM would probably go down the same road as Painkiller did if it made it to the CPL. As sad as it sounds, I think it's very likely.

    Also, I reckon if I made a shortlist of CPM greats, and compared them to OSP greats, it's going to look fairly ridiculous. I'd go as far to say that some CPM players definitely do have more skill than some of the top OSPers in general, but that skill level doesn't really even out across the community. Only the established players seem to triumph again and again, something we never saw with OSP. There will be too much of a difference of adjustment needed to make the playing field fair for all the Q4 players that are being shut out of their dream because of your elitist votes!. They deserve OSP or CPMA VQ3 for one season at least, don't make them learn an entirely different game, show some respect.
    << Comment #630 @ 03:08 CDT, 26 July 2006 >>
    I think games like CPM, QW, and PainKiller are too hard to play for many people. More people can play VQ3 because it is slower. It's pretty much the same reason why many more prefer even slower games like CounterStrike over VQ3. (This is not to say that becoming a top player in VQ3 is easy, and the same goes for CounterStrike. I'm just making a comment on the number of players playing these games online.)

    experience can win over any strategy or developed skill

    You don't think these go hand in hand? Rat is a pretty damn lethal tactician, often throwing away frags just to lure aggro enemies away from RA so he can grab it when he's down to 100/0. In order to win consistently you can't rely on a run of lucky spawn frags, a reason many people get more spawnfrags than others is because they are better at guarding areas with many spawns, and are fast and agile enough to attack them as soon as they hear or see the spawn. Imo the vq3 control runs are worse than the CPM control runs, in CPM you spawn back, get attacked when you are with 100/0 and give the enemy 4 or 5 frags, being unable to get an item for 30 secs or a minute. When you do get a YA and an RL, you have a fair run at taking control back. In VQ3, these control runs are even longer, but with less frags, resulting in players walking around with 105/20 for about 2 minutes, looking for items.

    Didn't read all the comments, but a few stood out, especially the ones about how CPM would probably go down the same road as Painkiller did if it made it to the CPL. As sad as it sounds, I think it's very likely.

    Painkiller had lots of spectators watching it, even though noone really liked playing it(except for a select few at the end). People's main grudge against playing PK lied in it having absolutely horrendous netcode, making it completely unplayable online, and also having many bugs and errors which never got fixed, and some which only got fixed at the very end. There is no argument why a fast paced game would fare worse than a slow one. It's hard to argue for it but I have the belief that most non-vq3 people enjoy watching faster and more aggressive games.

    Only the established players seem to triumph again and again, something we never saw with OSP.

    Are you kidding me? Well, vq3 1v1 is quite old and has had players get on and off the bandwagon, but we all had players dominate during their respective times.

    I wasn't meaning to say that a fast game is a poor spectator game, I was just trying to say that a run of lucky spawn frags in a CPL game would cause controversy, regardless of whether it was the attacker's skill or the defendant's lack of it...

    I haven't deciphered rat's playing style yet, so I can't really comment too much on him, but he does make the game look extremely easy, and proves that there is another way of winning other than aim or movement alone...or anything that takes physical judgement based skill. rat's games seem to be all in the mind.

    rat has dominated CPM for as long as I can remember, and even after coming back from such a long time without playing he still managed to win that masters cup. Compared to VQ3/VQ4 it's very different, remember how cooller got lazy and didn't practice for that comp, and then that other guy won when cooller was the favourite!

    Ever notice how everyone is looking forward to Q4 1.3 changes? That's because the changes are for the better. Luckily the changes are 'official' and so everybody can enjoy them, because imagine if somebody had implemented those exact changes in a Q4 mod... well... you think anybody would of played it? Or taken it seriously at all? Fuck no. There would be mostly people like you laughing at the changes, and telling the mod maker to essentially fuck off and to 'leave our game alone!!11'. Can you not use what little logic you have to see that? Is it not the content that actually matters?

    Please just look at the content and judge it on that alone. We don't need politics and prejudice fucking up what is best for us. From a small number of people I can see intelligent debate over the best gametypes, and the best tweaks and bug fixes to make the game BETTER. Unfortunately the majority seem to interpret this as an attack on them. Is there any good reason you can give us for wanting everything to stay exactly the same, other than that you just want it?

    Who would want progress and teleportation devices when we've got cars and planes? If it aint broke don't fix it, right?

    wtf? DONT compare CPM with VQ3..

    Some comments says that cpm is too fast or too whatever.. plzomg. You should compare OSP vs CPMA VQ3.

    And yea, I'd go for CPMA VQ3 on that one, love the hud! :D

    muhaha... cpm vq3 is osp gameplay with adaptation for cpma netcode... so compare not cpm vq3 vs osp, but cpm vq3 vs CPMA :)

    There's no such thing as CPM VQ3, its CPMA VQ3. You got it all wrong mister.

    Read my comment again and you'll se I'm right! And if you dont get it, CPM is faster, CPMA VQ3 is your normal bread.. ZzZzNARRKKK!!

    Someone bring back OSP physics irrespective of FPS, with the double jump on stairs and netcode of QL. Basically fix QL's shitty physics which started in CPMA VQ3 era and bring back the speed of OSP.
