cpma? rocket arena?

heard some rumour about air control

hats

test_bigbox

premium only ofcourse

Air control
cp9
cp14
callvote random (cointoss)













Unicorns

is air control well implemented, like in cpm and qw?

Its +forward air control, rather than +left or right.
So no, not completely like cpm or qw, but it's still something

edit for clarity: this is what I've heard, I haven't seen it first hand

It is optional, only for pro account players, right?

Pretty sure

Time to upgrade then! :)

^this is the first thing i'll be doign when i get my desktop.

Not true.

they really can't do things right, lol.

hopefully they'll release a second option (pmove_aircontrol 2) so it works exactly like cpm.

arrow to the knee

gtfo

i'll never leave you, my love

i used to make arrow to the knee jokes too and then i took an arrow to the knee

:D

Rumor has it, air control.

they removed dm6, ztn, space ctf

:(((

Single-player maps, with new physics, weapons, and a proper story.

lg recoil

anticheat !

1) Some duel map with 4 floors and shotgun+chaingun+rocket the only 3 weapons
2) q3wxs1 for ctf
3) "raythenoob" player model
4) /callvote tierslum
5) auto bans for anybody with lg acc above 35%
6) air control multijumps

i actually laughed :D

anyways, let's hope for bst's and Yellack's duel maps.

wtf is multi jump?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taIWzheDNw8

...

try to explain this using words, instead of yt link i wont even watch?

Dude could you like be any more Polish? c:

i guess i could try and act like im drunk

To quote a certain gentleman, "not my trouble".

dont spam my inbox then, useless trash...

If you don't want answers to the questions you ask, then maybe you should stop asking questions? You have a serious attitude problem, junior.

youtube link is not an anwser when its fuckin 2 minutes movie...

thx god SyncError, or some other guy was smart enough to post changes on quakelive.com


if i got problem with attitude, u obviously have problem with logic

In this case, the youtube movie was the best answer to your question. It shows what multijumps are better than i could explain with words. If you'd watch it, instead of replying to me with bile and apprehension, you would know by now.

Stop being such a fucking crybaby.

ow so multijump is rocket jump with bfg?

see why posting yt link was stupid?

It's amazing how much effort you put into being dumb. Carry on.

i just showed you how dumb was posting 2 minutes youtube movie, and u dare to call me dumb...

thats why u got problems with logic...

A normal person would watch the link i provided, found out what multijumps are (you can see them in the first two seconds of it), and left it at that.

You, on the other hand, keep whining and bitching about watching a 2 minute movie because... because.

According to my calculations based on your input, you are dumb. I'm sorry, it's science.

science is about logic, which you lack...

i will end this now, as u cant understand ur mistake, and ur dumb enough to keep this conversation till end of time

Sure, sure, back away, junior. You've showcased your dumbfuckery enough.

3) "raythenoob" player model

i'd buy premium just for that.

1. nothing

Guys i just found a leaked changelog, here it is, hope i won't be banned from QL for this.

[+] for effort

protoss pylon model? interesting

actually this anticheat is already in ql LOLOLLLOOLOLOL

Fukken nailed it.

great effort

if they implement cpmish air control, the game will become dead, just like cpm

EDIT: thx god this aircontrol shit is optional :X

true

but expect whine after a while. The more you give, the more they want and since they will be a minority, like always were, they will cry out louder.

It’s like taking in your home a homeless (CPMer) and giving him a room to live and food to eat (PQL). At start he will be happy and thankful, but later on he will want a piece of ur wife too.

sadly you are right :<

i've seen guys claiming triered armour should be competition standard[most stupid idea ever], ppl want PQL CTF @ DH [thats quite reasonable]... If PQL becomes standard its end for me, theres no more good 1o1 shooters out there :X

Im sure everyone will be sad to see such a no one leaving QL

nice to hear such comment from another no one

Why no LEAK FROM BETA TESTERS?

The patch is a lie.

ty.
Still any leaks form beta.. That means, no important updates?
Etc doublejumps, hitbox , new maps always was leaked by random users.

I heard 3/4 of this patch 3 weeks ago, get friends in focus bro

I have focus, but lazy to login.

Spider Crossings!

From Quake Live on Facebook.

Full Changelog

'Tis the season for QUAKE LIVE and we come bearing gib-- err, gifts. We've got some new surprises, and old holiday favorites in store for today. Along with our traditional holiday arena pack is the addition of the oft-requested Spider Crossings, and a new modified physics ruleset for Pro users to use in Start a Match. Without further ado, QUAKE LIVE Premium Pak 11!

Premium Maps Added

As part of the Christmas update, both premium maps will be available FREE for all players, for the first week, after which they will return to Premium status. Everyone is invited to hop on and check out the new content!

* Spider Crossings (CTF):

This arena, created by Dan "Scancode" Gold originally for Quake III Arena, is a classic CTF arena suitable for 4 on 4 play. Bases have entrances on two levels. Once inside, attackers have no less than six paths to take. Taking the low middle route can result in a Regeneration and a Mega Health pickup, but this puts you in a tactically disadvantageous spot against the flag defense, and being unable to take the same path out without damage means you will have to rethink your escape plans. Spider Crossings makes a great addition to the QUAKE LIVE CTF list of arenas, and as mentioned will be free for all for the first week.

* Electric Head (Small CA, Small FFA):

Electric Head is a small arena created by Adam Bellefeuil, centered around a high area and a low area. Controlling your enemy's movement is the key to victory; knocking them into the middle, or forcing them to move to the low side of the arena. Accomplishing either of these will result in a vast positional advantage, giving you the freedom to control the pace of the game. Electric Head is also available for free for the first week of play.

Holiday Maps Added

* Winter's Edge:

Making its second appearance as our annual Holiday Arena is the perennial favorite, Winter's Edge. A port of Quake II's The Edge, which last week saw it's 14th year passing since release, this year we are allowing the ability to play this arena across all gamemodes that support it. Along with The Edge, also return the most important part, the decorations! With a dimmer tree in the center of the map, we hope there will be less reports of temporary blindness as players run out into the iconic center area of the map.

* Silent Night:

Making it's third appearance is the terrain-based CTF arena, Silent Night. Otherwise known as Distant Screams, Silent Night is a fast-paced map taking place in a nameless tundra. Bases are peppered with (my personal favorite) jetpack style Flight powerup, along with the self-damage reducing Scout rune. Combine the two, and a bit of skill, and you're able to achieve breakneck speed. There's not much else to say about Silent Night, just hop on and play!

Premium Scoreboards:

* Premium CTF Scoreboard now available, includes different stats more tailed to CTF games.
* Added support for Regeneration, Haste, and Invisibility power-ups in TDM Team Pickup Stats.
* Pickup Stats are now dynamically generated upon item pickup, so that items such as the GA will not show on the scoreboard if it is not present in the map.
* Added new country flag images, double the resolution of the old images.
* Added subscriber status icon to premium TDM and CTF scoreboards.


Start-a-Match:

* Added PQL Ruleset. The PQL ruleset is a series of settings that modify player physics and some weapon characteristics, giving players the ability to ramp jump, increased air control, and a tiered armor system similar to Quake 1. It is an unranked option only available on Pro servers.
* Added 'Air Control' option. Allows a player to move in the direction they look, while airborn.
o When holding only a single movement key while airborn, mouse look will dictate the direction you move.
o Alternatively, if you hold a forward or back plus a strafe key (+moveleft or +moveright) while airborn, the player will benefit from the speed and distance normally gained with strafe jumping.
o If you have forward momentum, you can use the strafe keys (without the use of +forward) and small mouse movements to perform a bunny hop.
* Added 'Tiered Armor' option. Tiered armors offer increasingly stronger levels of protection, based off of Quake 1's armor system. Green armors absorb the least damage, and red armors absorb the most damage. You will not pick up an armor if it is weaker than what you currently are wearing.


Game Updates

* Added Weapon Configs for Premium Users, available through the Advanced Settings UI. Setup per-weapon preferences that are automatically triggered when you switch weapons.
* Unranked server settings available via Start-a-Match will now appear on the map loading screen so that players can be aware of what custom settings are in-use on the server.
* Added unranked server settings to the 'About' menu in-game so players can reference custom server settings while in-game.
* Added improved feedback when 'callvote' is issued without parameters. It will now report back properly what what voting options are allowed by the server.
* Added callvotes for 'cointoss', 'random', and 'ruleset'
* Hide callvote shuffle from menu in non-team games.
* Players are unable to call votes for the first 20 seconds of a map load.
* Players can now only call 3 votes per map, to prevent players from vote spamming.
* 'cv' shorthand added as an alternative to typing 'callvote' in the console.
* CTF matches with no timelimit will no longer have increased player spawn times.
* Added Flag Captured vs Flag Held time distinction, "Captured in x:xx" for a continuous flag run, or "Held for x:xx" for a relayed flag cap.
* Free For All servers are now 8 players each, with 8 spectator slots available.
* Battle Suit now protects 1/3rd instead of 1/4th in CTF. (Reflux)
* Changed the default for cg_quadKillCounter to 1.
* Added Use Item Messages (cg_useItemMessage <0|1|2>) and Use Item Warning (g_useItemWarning <0|1|2>) in advance options menu.
* Added cl_demoRecordMessage 2, a small subtle notification that a recording is being made as an alternative to the large verbose message.
* Changed Clan Names & Clan Tags in teamgames, such that they will now only be used if the team has at least 2 players.
* Fix for Clan Names & Clan Tags changing as players die in Clan Arena.
* Fix to prevent server crashes caused by hitscans bouncing off of invulnerability spheres.
* Fix for issuing the "team follow1" or "team follow2" command when too few players are in the match.
* Fix to prevent demos from being lost due to a cg_autoAction error. When this error occurs, the demo now will save with a default demo####.dm_73 filename, rather than the verbose autoAction filename.
* Fixed rare case when a recently gibbed player can thaw a teammate if they were standing within thawing distance before gibbing.
* Max Aliases increased to 256.
* Correct player is now highlighted on scoreboards.
* FreezeTag thawtime has been decreased by 1 second to 2 seconds.
* FreezeTag spawncode now uses the TDM spawn code and spawns players closer to their teammates.

Haha, I beat you on the only important thing and it was out in the open on Facebook.

I said cp9 earlier in the thread chump

Yea but you were just ranting and didn't know.

I did know.
Your move, Jack.

There's no cp14 or any proof which makes it sounds more like ... guessing. :)

I got 3/4 right :/

You get a C! :D

At least a B[+] Get it?

you probably saw some old leaked focus changelog and made a (non justified) assumption about what will be in the update that turned out semi correct

I was just told the stuff I mentioned earlier. Although apparently part of what I was told was a lie! (cp14)

A good update from id this time. Good job, guys. wp

* Free For All servers are now 8 players each, with 8 spectator slots available.

*phew*
that
sucks

That's great! Less MG spam, more tactical thinking.

that's really nice :D

FFA chaos was just annoying

Pub FFA might actually be playable now.

Candy for CPM players.

Winters edge is back... Now people can accept jamerios challenge from a year ago.

What challenge? He was there for a couple of games that I played, he was rubbish - half way down whenever I hit the frag limit.
He can't STILL possibly consider himself good can he? If I'm shit and can double his score on the map...

Way to fail. You were on the same server as him and played the same people for the same amount of time? What kind of way of beating someone is that? You obviously missed the whole point of Jamerio's Christmas FFA Challenge.

My keyboard was broken.

flash page or didnt happen

omfg 8 max ffa. why the fuck? what about bigger maps? ffa should be carnage. this is bollocks.

cpm movement without cpm weapon balance is useless, it simply is unbalanced with nerefed QL weapons. Wanna play with aircontrol - play CPM, don't fuck up QL

The ql weapons aren't that different from cpm. 80 rail, faster rockets than q3, no lg cripple... It's not exact, but it's pql not cpm. Double jumps on bounce pads are crazy different.

Anyway there's cp9, no more complaints!

No, he's right.

Haha, the weapons in cpm have changed so much that you can't really even argue that. At least now the knockback will be normal again like it was in pmc.

Nope. PMC rl knockback had an added vertical component to it. So even some crazy to-the-side rocket would still bounce you up like a trampoline. This was removed at a point and later 10% or so of knockback was added to compensate for the fact that now a direct rocket to the feet wouldn't lift you up so much as a doublejump(hyperbole).

It only had the extra vertical component around the time they started really experimenting in like 1.1. I remember we got like 4 people to crouch on top of each other, top person shot down with rl, and the bottom person would bounce up. Didn't really make sense.

Notes for version 1.33 (2 Jun 06)

chg: CPM uses "absolutely honest" knockback rules
no artificial vertical boost

yea that agrees with what i said...

however, the rl knockback in cpm remained different than q3. feel free to look that up in the changelog too.

How does it agree with what you said? You said it was there up to 1.1. Changelog disagrees.

learn to read english, god.

Arguments please?

this is too drawn out and pedantic to be worth continuing after this... rl knockback has changed, or evolved, depending on your point of view, over time in cpm. initially it was similar to vq3 (shoot the bottom half of a model and it doesn't bounce in the air), then it was modified and there were a bunch of experimental changes, including the really strange knockback i alluded to, until eventually settling into whatever 1.49 uses (shoot the bottom half of a model and it does bounce in the air). the point was that around the challenges and wansanity period, original cpm, the knockback was more similar to vq3 knockback compared to now, and pql is closer to that behavior...

VQ3 has never had the crazy rl knockback of PMC. Just watch cpma done by vo0. Every second rocket is like a shuttle launch for the enemy.

wasn't talking about that but anyway... nevermind.

Well, ok, lets leave it at that.

We are just speaking past each other, and in person it would be simple to explain. Internet sucks though!

I guess so :/.

I think we'll see more of the same!

I really dig this ability to set up per weapon config stuff through the menu. that will make it really easy for people to customize the game more to their liking without having to mess with console.

The Christmas maps are always fun, and it seems like they didn't break anything this time around, so GG id for not messing anything up and adding a few neat features.

sadly PQL ruleset doesnt affect the 2 major issues i have with CA. if its a large map it takes 5 minutes for the last 2 guys to find each other so its a long wait. on the other hand, if you play it on smaller maps its quite often just Xv1 situation, you die fast and get frustrated.

pql ca should simply get rid of the round based format and go with a straightforward you die, you spawn format. play it on larger maps to avoid ganking but the instant spawn resolves the issues of having to wait for the last 2 guys. the downtime after you die is the biggest reason i cba with ca.

all weapons tdm?

yeah something like that, without item pickups. you just have to remember it will never be anything 'serious', so the format should be the one that is most fun and has the least downtime. maybe have a 10 second spawntime or something, but god is it shit to wait for 5 mins while 2 guys run around the map trying to find each other, especially if the other guy is actively trying to get the best possible position :D zzzzzzzzzz

oh crap i just realized i posted this in the wrong thread, was supposed to be in the patch thread :D

i like it!

you posted the same thing in the other thread, but w/e.

the best and easiest solution is to add red rover as a different gametype.
It was built into ra3.

damn, no more auto dm6 for me :((

no more auto dm19 :((
