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

Im never home long enough to play in competitions.

How about a draft? It's been a while and steamrolling with team maestro was fun.

Voted yes anyway, and I'm open to any team that can use the bolus.

love it how people who don't even play quake take their time to vote no :)

edit: as i said on irc channel, i'd prefer if it were a draft league. that way you don't have to care about having enough teams per division and what not, and basically would guarantee more activity.

By yesh its SEAN CONNERY! megaman3 
Do you think a long lasting league would work without coutnless WOs, in quake's current state? idk, maybe just a one day cup would work better.

Well ppl say draft now, but if they end up in a team with someone they don't like or think their team isn't strong enough, ppl will quit.

By Germany spenzer 
If there wont be enough ppl for a regular league, why bother trying to start a nationscup?
And what if this vote ends with a positive score, doesn't mean we will get enough teams anyway. As far as I can see, right now you would gather about 2 Div 1 teams and maybe 3 or 4 Div 2 teams

that's why I suggested a draft. You don't have to worry about divisions or anything. All teams can play same div.

Better some whines than a league between 2-3 teams or a nationscup between 3 nations.
I played 4 drafts and it was always fun, even when we got rekt by winz's team.

I would like to see more regular one-day-cups, be it drafts or be it team-tournaments.

Reasoning: Admins in hoq/cb/ba are working their asses off trying to reach each team or even member to get games played while those are procrastinating. Clans drop out cause they lose 1 single game or map pool isn't liked or 100 different crappy reasons. Some teams have 8+ players on their roster but take a wildcard as soon as they can't use their top lineup. Lot of activity is promised but not really held.

One-day cups could boost popularity/hype by ESR-news posts and communication in other channels like irc or ql forums. There's no need to use 8 players for a roster anymore and more teams could be featured - especially with a less conservative ruleset like alternative mappools, different tourney layout (Swiss system bo1 for example).

there's hardly anyone left playing pickups, don't think he should bother with that and just sign up if something happens.
