is there a website where i can see the CQ3 gameplay settings (movement/physics, weapon damage, splash damage, rocket speed, etc.)? what else are the differences vs. Quake Live gameplay? Thanks!

CPM(A) requires less skill because the increased movement speed and instant weapon switch allows you to get out of situations you get punished for in regular paced games.
The CPM community love that fascinating insight in their game, most of them are failed OSP players who moved onto it under the guise that its better when the aforementioned aspect makes them fell better because its a less technical game.
The community loves to hear this about their game too.
Fortunately I can deal with all 17!
the difference was between cq3 and QL not cpm and QL, but that didn't matter too much as it gives you the opportunity to spam that you do in all cpma related threads...
Actually I was kinda bored waiting for the "The Apprentice" to start, saw the words CPMA and decided it was a good time to reiterate my opinion on me laptop. Which is why I said CPM(A).
tbh i find the weapon switch in osp/ql just a half way house. Q2 slower switch punishes you way more while qw allows more aggessive style and punish +back players
[21:46] <Drexciyian> if u like slower gameplay where aim and timing is most important then sure play ql but if you want a aggessive style where you need to be good at multiple skills then play cpm
Both games have their faults
cpm = handpicked the 'best' parts of qw and q2(doesnt mean together they are great)
vq3 = inbetween both which ends up being less hardcore then both qw/q2
ql = take some of the best parts of cpm and add it to vq3(weapon drop, faster rockets, lower mg damage, 4xquad(rip), weaker railgun and now double jumps)
you're 100% right, but it doesn't offer any other fundamentally taxing variables to replace it with so while its fair, its like not good fair.
Result?
You both lose because your core skills are being lowered as most games don't work like that.
id already gave you a chess board, and some of you want to swap it for draughts (CPMA), or connect 4 (CLAN ARENA) or tic tac toe (ROCKET ARENA), insert approariate mod where you wish.
You didn't read the post did you? Only saw "CPMA" and jumped on your usual bash train against it I guess?
He's asking about CQ3 not CPM. They don't have anything to do with each other. Also your lack of knowledge is amazing. CPMA is god compared to OSP. I don't say that CPMA is absolutely perfect but it's way better than the OSP-shit which is only playable on LAN or with <20 ping.
If I think longer about your unqualified post... You probably only wanted attention to your miserable person and puked out the first best shit-post you could formulate. Now that you've got your attention I would kindly ask you to keep your nose out of subjects you know shit about, thank you.
Since promode.org and many other sites are dead, old forum threads like this have become the only place people can find info on CPMA or Q3A. Seriously, this thread is like the #3 search result for CQ3 on google, and 75% of it is irrelevant flames. Therefore, I figured it was worth pointing out for the next guy that comes along trying to figure out CQ3.
You should make a new thread and a new page in our wiki (www.esreality.com/wiki) , putting all the information in the main post. Comments are kind of for flames.
