Quakeworld.

Even smoother.

Chuzzle Deluxe.

Call of duty, it kinda aims for ya!

half life

tf2 and l4d feel pretty smooth to me at 120hz, their problem is that when you are firing and moving it doesn't feel solid.

it's mostly due to different netcode, the engine itself is way more fluid than quake

quake netcode is fine

quake 4

source games, good unreal engine games, etc are pretty smooth for me tbh, but at the same time they might feel more sluggish / less responsive which is mostly due to different netcode and input processing.
tbh quakelive ain't really that good with it's 125fps limit, it's the only competitive game left with fps limit, cmon id...

Unreal, Source <-----> fluid

wtf

yeah
the only thing which favours quake is that you don't need a powerful PC to run it with rock stable 125 fps. Tbh out of all major titles I played lately I can't say that any of them is worse than Quake on that point unless they got some 60fps limit or terrible animations. All Source games are absolutely fine, cod/bf3 are fine aswell, latest Unreal engine titles like Bioshock Ininite were absolutely nice aswell. The main thing is - to get the same smoothness in those games you need the same rock stable fps in them as in QL(that means that MINIMAL fps should be 125 when you cap it like that for example), moreover with unlocked fps most of the games feel even nicer than QL at my 150hz CRT or 144hz LCD when you're able to have more than 125 frames. Sadly to get that fps you need a pretty much top tier PC unlike for QL ;(

There is a lot of new games on UE3 engine and all of them are sluggish. But still I liked RO2 or new America's Army 4 or Soldier Front 2, but still not fluid.

For me Source/CS are so much inflexible, without any freedom of movement that I don't like them. CS is faster than CoD, but first impression is that CoD is far more dynamic.

And for me CoD is much smoother than bf3.
From CoD series CoD4 promod is very fine. Even if a game is retarded ;d

hum i play UT3 regularly at a solid 120fps (capped) and a 120 hz screen and it's smooth as f*ck, i don't see where you can see it's sluggish (at least in this UE game which is the oldest one)...

You also have to consider setting your game correctly before even commenting on how bad/choppy/unstable it is :< . Get good .inis (like you need good .cfg to get the best experience in Quake), and you are all set tbh.

h8m3 also pointed out rightfully that sometimes netcode etc are defo less good than ql's for sure and it doesn't help with the feeling, though, the gfx fluidity seems to really not be a problem as long as, like h8m3 mentioned too, u get decent hardware )= .

IDTECH 3 FOR LYFE

>>

Street fighter :>

So smooth, so precise.

Which one?

4

No

why no? it doesn't run on your computer? if we can pull off those 1 frame links consistently at 60 fps, I would say it is.

Doesn't feel that smooth to me, I mean look at TTT2 that's 3D and it feels loads smoother, DOA5U and VF5 also are really smooth, mind you in those games the fastest moves start up in 6 frames, but a bit of motion blur on SF4 and it would look really smooth.

Some 2D games have a really nice smooth feel to them, KOF13, SFIII3S and skullgirls feel buttery smooth.

Technically speaking there is nothing wrong with how SF4 runs, but there's a lot I'd like changed.

what games are you playing these days?

Got an arcade stick this summer and starter Uni, so whenever I have some time left I play some fighting games, mostly SSFIV. It has many similarities with quake in terms of how you learn, compete and getting beter within the game. Also, with SF there is bigger tournaments I can attend (even though you lose the big ones, its one of the major things that makes me stick to a game).

If I get in the DH tourney, which is really unlikely, lol, then I will be back for quake in notime!

imo
-Every Quakelike, QW, Q2 etc.
-Enemy Territory
-CoD (sic!)

ET and ETQW are laggy pieces of shit comparing to QL(and I'm not even talking about cpma/warsow and the likes with unlocked fps and overall much smoother feeling than QL)

ETQW is just shit ;d
ET - it is old, with no support, is laggy thing is really on the side of game engine? I dont think so.

And yea, QL is not that smooth...

i forgot about warsow, how manu ppl playing it?

From CoD games, I think CoD4 promod is quite ok, but still game is retarded compared to any Quake ;d

ET is overall pretty intermittent with constant fps drops and low fps animations(even without various anticheats like PB which turn it into complete disaster). On the other hand several project have shown that it's smoothness could have been improved being moved on to updated engine and continued competition mod development with many other improvements. But it just got stuck in 2006 pretty much on same level as OSP quake.

but still better than any military shooter ;P i mean fun.

RTCW > ET

I mentioned ET, coz ET seems to be more popular ;p

et uses same idtech3 as quakelive.

blame your pc

ETQW is shit










lol

@h8m3:
http://www.tweakguides.com/ETQW_10.html -> framerate unlocking

Source engine games at 240fps+....

Warsow's pretty good

And as mentioned, CoD. Not Black Ops, but mw2 at least.

There was also Brink game on idtech4 engine, unfortunately it sucked balls :/ performance and... It could be good... without console influence.

Now splash damage is doing dirty bomb / extraction game on UE3. Sadly. I'm pretty tired of this engine.

source engine games can be butter smooth but yet that doesn't translate to the kind of response you get from movement in ql for example. its slightly floaty, better than most other engines ive tried though, just not quake. raw input feels very nice in the lfd2/csgo.

i thought raw input was broken in the CS:GO

gldsrc and idtech(s) nothing will ever be as smooth!

cod4, w:et, rtcw, cs1.6, cod2, cod1

Warsow felt amazingly smooth last time I played it. (75hz).

+1

you have to actually click the [+] for that to work.

so close!

kzmod

Starsiege: Tribes, Tribes 2, Tribes: Vengeance, Tribes: Ascend (if you can get above 120fps minimum, HAH), Legions, Descent, Descent 2... Bleh~

I guess its safe to say any idTech3 based Games as well as the valve branch. So, HL, TF2, CoD, ET etc.

real-life. (kidding it lags like shit)
