250 FPS QL League - Season 2 (No comments)
Posted by Danmer @ 12:58 CDT, 2 April 2025 - iMsg
250 FPS QL League returns with a second season!

The league will run for two months, starting on April 12, 2025. There will be a lot of interesting matches for the total prize pool 3,500$ by EGB. They also provide an opportunity to place bets on each match. So you can even earn a little money if you know the players well enough.

The league will start with four qualifying tournaments for everyone. First and second places will advance to the main part, where they will play with 8 invited players in a round-robin system. The top four players will compete in the super final for an additional prize.

The fate of the next seasons depends on your support: reposts, views, reactions, comments, and bets. So don't let us down!

Quake Strike v0.82 (No comments)
Posted by baron Railgun @ 19:34 CDT, 31 March 2025 - iMsg
I made Quake Strike, which is a combination between Quake3 and Counter Strike mechanics, which you can play versus your friends if they are skilled at fps players but not so good at Quake, given increased weapon damage, movement hinder if you wear too much armor, increased gauntlet damage based on the scarcity of player's health (the lesser health you have, the bigger the damage), increased lightning damage versus armored opponents, bc electricity versus iron, weapon and items spawn increased to 30 s and more, like in Quake2, to strategize more, and so on.

Mod based on ioquake3,
link for the code and exes here:

https://github.com/baronRailgun/QuakeStrike-v0.82

Gonna set a server online as well at a later time.


The code have only been tested versus bots, their code have not been modified though. Yet

Magnetic keyboard (No comments)
Posted by BalkanFM @ 17:01 CDT, 29 March 2025 - iMsg
Anyone have any experience with these type of keyboards? Im interested because of the instant activation and deactivation that you can configure.. im thinking about getting one to be able to play defrag and jump with the spacebar like im used to after so many years. I just cant get myself to jump with mouse2 and i think its a bad option for all other quakes as it hinders your aiming.
Please post some suggestions which one to get

Posted by BalkanFM @ 16:52 CDT, 29 March 2025 - iMsg
So whats the mouse to get nowadays? 1000hz, no smoothing and no accel or other processing interfering.. no negative/positive accel when doing fast motions and a high malfunctioning speed.. quality switches that are responsive and fast.. thats what im looking for in a mouse if anyone has any suggestions based on those criteria

Needs to count up for sure.
I like to time sometimes while I watch, can not do that for shit when its counting down.

And even worse in overtime when it suddenly changes, what the hell.

personally I don't care but counting down is better for people who don't watch much quake, timing is done by item timers.

imo that would just confuse them even more if it hits overtime and starts counting up.

On my stream i had the timer counting up.. i play with that settings. but most specs want to see the timer counting down.. I know am0kchen told me very often to let the timer counting up, but i will let it counting down.. if there are new viewer they exactly see how much time is left. It is ok and most time we have the item timer (like nukm says it)

"Counting Up: 80%" ;)
and honestly, who watches a stream and doesnt know that a match is 10 minutes long?

isnt that what a poll is for, seeing what most people want ;)

all of the oldschool prefer counting up, me included


however, id made it so all the newbies are used to having it count down, so it might not be the smartest decision to follow the oldschoolers here.

Need a " don't care " option.

I can use both, and actually use up ( just in case I actually play tdm ) but it feels more logical to me to know the remaining time rather than the elapsed time.

the dont care option is to not vote?
<< Comment #23 @ 14:52 CDT, 29 June 2011 >>
By QW faerie_  - Reply to #22
Not voting would mean " I don't care about this poll " .
A "don't care" option would mean that none of the other answers suit me and that I don't really care about the point of the oll.

doesnt matter to me but counting down tells newfags instantly how long the match goes
