250 FPS QL League - Season 2 (1 comment)
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 (1 comment)
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. It should work ok with players though.

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

it's interesting how a lot of 5s and some 3s, 4s add up to (30) in this poll

a full stop / dot whatever you call it would indicate it's not a points-system, but a ranking whoever is in charge of this website ;)

I rated frags worse than interview.. seriously, there's going to be so many great, great frags. How the fk do you choose?

A great interview, on the other hand... they're rarely really fun to read, and I like reading them.

a nice interview is always great, but how would you pay casters? i'd like to think that they already got a salary. :x

just gonna put it out there performance awards are bullshit and it is inevitable they will be super subjective.

Who knows?

Think as if it were Quakecon 2013, best match would go for chance vs evil and best frag for Dahang's LG suspension on rapha in ZTN. and there's no many matches/frags left to argue those.

What i mean is that is possible to get to an agreement.

I think there should be a "Best sportsmanship award" voted by the participating players (with the obvious rule that players can't vote for themselves).

But since I didn't make a donation, I also think I don't have a say in it. :)

Best Interview is the most WTF award. (1) It has no relation to the game what so ever. (2) Not really performance based (at least game-wise). (3) Will every single player get interviewed? If not, no equal chances. (4) Non-English speakers that need a translator, such as Evil, are at immediate disadvantage.

Best Frag is also a gay award. It's mostly luck based. Anyone can produce it, nobody is actually trying to get it, it just happens. I would much more prefer Best Play, which is actually more performance based. You need intelligence + execution to get it, not just a lucky string of air rockets to hit for example.

Best Upset and Best Comeback are good awards. You have to work hard for those. Best Match, again depends on many factors. Depends how do you define best, too. For example this was a great match, but both players played shitty, they made thousands of mistakes. So Best Match I'd give not necessarily the most entertaining, but to the tightest match, which means both opponents played off the charts, making almost no mistakes, and it was close as hell.

1. Best unexpected performance
2. Best match

Rest dont really reward anything too meaningful. Thats also the reason, why I didnt see the point of putting money to these awards.
