they're putting their comms on stream... 90% of it is either suggestions or enemy positions, doesn't this game have a radar that shows you enemy positions?

e: yeah this game has about as much depth as a rail-shooter

Water is wet.

What the hell do you think they talk about, their fucking breakfast?

predictions? tactics? commands?

http://www.twitch.tv/esltv_pov2/b/510773881

watch coL vs Mystik, this is what comms are supposed to be like when the players know what they're doing, and the game even calls for comms. you'll hear predictions, tactics, etc.

some of it is position calls, because the hud doesn't make it easy to stare at the minimap. a design flaw.

every time someone mentions small prize pools it reminds me of this

Quake isn't something you fix/tweak to appeal to more people. By doing so, you're compromising what makes it great.

Yeah, but things change.

I don't know if it was design, but the change in air control from QW to Q2 improved net play. The more "projectile-like" players are to be in-play, the more leway there is for network prediction and latency. Ceteris paribus, the game's still quake, but things like this keep the game ahead of the pack.

I get that there's technical aspects you can tweak, but as far as gameplay, no way.

customisation beard on player model

dicks and vaginas <3

just dicks would be fine with me!

i would like also to see holiday themes where for a week in for example christmas our railguns shoot candycane and shotgun shoot mince pies. have some award related too like kill 100 people with mince pies to get title "festive food fighter - killed 100 ppl with mince pies" and sparklyshine rod electric ammo 150 could shoot hotchocolate sauce and with headshot enabled the opponent does BLARGLARGLARGL animation with the chocolate sauce like a dog with water hose.

10/10 would chocolate

if it's dicks you're after, the Australian QL scene has you covered.

: D

How much do you weigh? Pardon my indelicacy.

same weight as a duck

wish?

less of all these "q3 bestestest game ever" guys. srsly, its 2k14 now, and noone fucking wants all your outdated shenanigans like gtv

yeah i don't get it why they want an ancient technology like gtv be implemented back into the game

1.) they complain that they can't watch the games with their "ooooown" configs

THEN WAIT FOR THE TOURNAMENT TO END AND DOWNLOAD THE DEMOS THAT WAY YOU CAN WATCH THE GAME WITH YOUR "OOOOOOOWN" CONFIGZ

2.)they complain how the twitch chat is retarded and full of trolls

SUUUUURE, LIKE THE CHAT IN GTV WASN'T FULL OF TROLLS BACK THEN.....

3.) they don't want to hear the commentators

MUTE THE STREAM THEN AND LISTEN TO YOUR "UUUUUNDERGROOOOUND" MUSIC THAT 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% OF THE MAINSTREAM KNOWS ABOUT

4.)there's no MVD in the twitch stream.....

LIKE I SAID WAIT FOR THE DEMOS THEN (FACEIT UPLOADS BOTH PLAYER POV)

AND I BELIEVE THE vq3/QL GUYS WHERE SHITTING ON THE CPMA MOD BACK THEN

5.) they are always going to find a way to shoo the casuals away

YET YOU GUYS COMPLAIN TO ID SOFTWARE WHY THIS COMMUNITY IS GETTING SMALLER

2.)they complain how the twitch chat is retarded and full of trolls

SUUUUURE, LIKE THE CHAT IN GTV WASN'T FULL OF TROLLS BACK THEN.....

FU LOBSTER. RESPECT THE PACO

We'd need at least 14,3 octillion times more people on earth than we have now, for this to even result in a single human being.

Best post in this thread

Man, you've just found the solution to expanding the Quake player base, cool!
There would be enough folks to fill up any games' playerbase.
We need to make babies fast!
Imma start right away.
I hear my neighbours' wife isn't too busy at the moment, which comes at a great time.
She also looks like Adriana Lima when I'm drunk, which is also very helpful 'n stuff.
Let's hit it folks!
We cannot linger!

look at what cs:go is doing and do that

Fail hard?

not gameplay

100K in the evening is nice score.

Just proving that there are more and more clueless noobs exists as years passing by on us.

how about an anticheat

Not needed - Zhu

my 2 cents

-a new quake sequel would be nice, better graphics for casuals and stream purposes but fully modable for hardcore players

-more FFA lan tournaments catering to casuals or new timers (with decent prize pool)

-inb4 better marketing

-more streaming from the top players i guess

-
-i believe tournaments should focus more on team games (as history has proven that team games will always be more popular than 1v1s, i'm referring to esports in general)

can't wait till quake 4

Is there a point in having another quake considering id for the past 10 years have not released any similar games to it?

not shit netcode, weird is a scrub

new players who just are actually good and disfavor the players only good just because they have 10 yrs of xp

duel to be more talent centric, as in an 1800 elo player vs'n a person who has never played duel before should have a close game if the 1200 elo is much better mechanically

spawn with all weapons in duel

choose spawn location in duel

make the maps bigger to alleviate spawn fragging

remove rocket launcher splash, but speed up the projectile

less corridors in the map design

remove grenade launcher

focus around clan arena since that's what people play, and obviously release it on steam

no fps caps, no mouse input lag, allow fov changing, allow customization of configs, and allow an easy installer for getting people's configs

... what the fuck...

so you want all aim no brain game? hahahaha murica pls

edit: link removed

If he's better at Quake, then yes.

You forgot(or didn't bother) to mention that it would remove skill and not add more of it.

If you take the fight of Rapha vs JigglyWigger, they are almost on the same level of aim. Maybe a bit of a favor to jiggly. So if it was all aim they are about equal. But since Rapha have got a brain that work he can predict players movement and time items.

How would it be more about skill if you removed item control, weapon control, stack management, routes, timing and reading your opponent?

Just NA CA whine. Don't pay attention.

play cod

Play lolCA. Seems it's fitting for you.
And let quakers play Quake.

but howcome duelers get cockslammed in eyetoeye in duel mode?

Almost nice troll. : D

Probably the Quake of the future will havea better model of latency in the netcode, smoothing is done optimally. There really shouldn't be as much guesswork as there is, in accounting for the quality of modern networks, and if the netcode simply cannot be optimal for the gameplay on such networks and configurations, then what is it you are trying to design?

It's also telling that huge segments of the CSGO playing population make posts requesting valve to use 128 tick servers like ESEA/AltPug use, when as far as I know QL uses only 40 tick rate, and fairly high framerate variance in comparison. (This isn't displayed explicitly on the lagometer, however if you look at the interpolation bar you can clearly detect such phenomenon, I think). Players definitely don't know what they want, and settings like cl_maxpackets and rate need to go the way of the 56k whence they spawned.

Games which are designed to simply work (Tgameplay >> Ttick/latency/jitter) seem to be much more popular than games that are teetering on the edge -- whether they need to or not.

It's also worth considering perhaps that Quake could simply benefit from better sensory cues. A green keel jerking across the screen at 900ups really doesn't tell most players much, (the 4 or so interpolated server frames they would stay on screen, most maps) unless you're intimately familiar with the corridor they just strafed down you're not likely to have a good guess at how fast they're going. But if their giant metal suit produced some sort of whistle of a representative pitch, and they actually appear to be tucking as they race by, or the myriad of other subtle things that someone would really have to do to be moving at 60mph on foot, the problems in the netcode might seem less relevant.

I just want Quake to be loved :(

I FUCKIN LOVE IT SINCE '97.

Matchmaking system
(waiting hour for someone to join your server just to win/loss one game is not fun. I don't mind losing but i don't have time to wait so long for a game.)

Better game promotion from id software
(from my experience new players have no clue about quake and it can actually be a lot of fun if you can play with people of same skill.)

Better business model
(Imho ql subscription model doesn't work well for ql as it is becouse it splits community in small parts which is not good for anyone.)

-
What i propose is to make core game (ffa, duel, tdm) and all maps for those mods free and make revenue from DLCs (such as ca, ctf, domination, defrag, new player skins and soundpacks, map editor, gtv, movie maker studio, better bots, custom map texture packs, voicechat, tools for casters etc.), ads, subscription that doesn't affect core gameplay (ads removal, lan support, better stats history, own game servers...), own tournament and
betting system.

IRC integration
Twitch.tv recording tools (this could also help with game promotion)
Ladders
Anticheat
Improved player rating system
Better bots (bots now don't even switch weapons when they are
out of ammo)
Improved sound cues

sorry for my bad English but i hope you understand what i wanted to say :D

they split the community with f2p hell and pay to fun

you have some really good points anon

thanks based anon

I would pay for "movie maker studio" and "defrag" and "tools for casters"

(bots now don't even switch weapons when they are
out of ammo)

That one was actually fixed!

Yeah After 15 years

http://www.esreality.com/post/2562009/quake-l...pid2564121

Better sound, better graphics! Better performance, Better weapons.

And better noobs.

Where does Quake go from here? The history books. Reserving hope for future Quake titles is futile.

PLZ go home

Let it go, man. The dream is dead.

I invite you to look at top twitch channels. CSGO and COD are in top 10 on a very good day and that's it and they were historically infinitely more popular than quake. You start to wonder wtf is going on with good FPS genre as a whole... it's being crushed at alarming rate.

There are a couple of FPS titles are trying to break thru , but they look to be DOA with maybe a couple of months of hype to weather the harsh reality.

There isn't really anything better or popular out there for deathmatch and 1v1 than quake. Just look at the streams..

are you trying to say cs go with it's bullets that go wherever they want mechanics isn't tru skill?

was really not hinting that at all

I cant agree with you more on the bullet mechanic..

Or the accuracy. What monkey thought it would be a good idea to make the guns more accurate when you're slow?

It should start with a 30° spread while standing still/crouching and no spread at 900 ups upwards.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHU3gW_vqxU

Basically, this is a video made by me, and trust me, things worse than this like times 50 happened.

Like a guy rushing witnh p90 in dust 2 from long (just peeking long) and getting 2 instant hs on the guy (me) being at plant A camping, covering just made me uninstall the game.

It's just too random.

EDIT: Although I'm more happier that its getting more "competetive" views than CoD and so forth.

Custom maps and mods for user made servers. At least maps should be doable, just let the creator choose and upload a .pk3 file from his hard drive upon server creation. People who join his game automatically download the map, just like standard users do right now when they enter a serer with a map they haven't played yet.

quake is far from perfect

it's actually pretty bad when there's no matchmaking or voicechat

all that most players can really do nowadays is run around in clan arena or FFA and shoot things for fun

very few people can enjoy spending more time idling than playing in servers only to win or lose by a landslide when they finally find a game

voicechat... the rages

Can still turn off, like I play without chat :D.

1. sell quake to Valve
2. expect good things to be happen
3. celebrate

When did Valve ever do a good thing for a game?

1.
2.
3.

HL3 CONFIRMED

We need a ladder, matchmaking, points for kills which you can accumulate to buy new models etc. more rewards, more tutorials, a good single player. Voice chat, sponsored tourneys, easyer game modes for beginners, maybe easyer movement?

good one m8

We could implement painkiller movement \o/

and impaling with rails :o

and lassos and cars

And a gun that launches hot babes to distract opponents

GR8 ID M8, I R8 IT 8/8.

RAINBOW LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

oh you

event streaming is pretty limp-wristed. i remember watching SC2 MLG, and basically the only thing that worked right was the streamers describing the game, and the feed of the game itself. really no-frills, but still figuring out when a stream is of an event you're interested in shouldn't be rocket science.

for pro-gaming as a whole to continue growth, obviously the games can't be so simple that they don't work at the highest level of play. the only FPSes that have really been shown to work here is Quake, CS, and ET-likes. it's not a matter of raw difficulty, what really works is a function of pacing and popularity.

is it paced so that the matters at hand can be properly described?
by a streamer?
can the parts that aren't be seen on a HUD?

ticket-based games like BF and DOM in quake, are in their infancy i think. i don't know why line-of-combat games haven't picked up, i thought Brink was pretty good a couple years back, and ET:QW a little bit further back. sure the maps needed a bit of work, and video streaming was so small when it was released that people couldn't spectate for the most part, so we're here still with just the sort of abstract "cart" modes TF2 does, and Chroma is doing.

there's also point mode like Day of Defeat, much more difficult to pace, however i feel like DoD:S could easily be casted and competitive, because the pacing is fairly cinematic.

games that are successful really only focus on one mode, and in many cases, only a few maps. consider that CS is more popular than quake right now. CS only has about 3 maps that see consistent competitive play:

de_dust2 - March 13th, 2001
de_nuke - November 5th, 1999
de_inferno - June 27th, 1999

So these maps, and the gameplay around them have been in-dev/swirling for ~15 years average. Also note that they even HAD and REMOVED strafejumping, it was in the game, and with the same maps, it was simply removed. Game left unbroken, and still played heavily. Strafejumping is still in, in a minor way capped at 300 UPS (50 UPS above knife-speed) League? same way, one map (DotA circa 2003). SC2? who cares, it's an rts, but i'm pretty sure it's just a few maps, also a really old game (March 31, 1998)

Also if you look at what these games do in sequel, you improve the UI, you improve the graphics, you improve the spectator friendliness. CS:GO has some subtle things like high-quality map-camera positions. So there is a good reason for casters to leave POV occasionally, and show a non-minimap overview of a firefight.

If you change the maps, you improve the graphics, and make them easier to communicate about, and as much fun as all the mod modes are in quake, the time would be better spent figuring out what makes the rest of the game compelling, and making it compelling-er, for the part of your community that is still putting money and effort in. Streamline entries, make the balance of the maps definite, and more obvious to players.

Finally, make a streamer-preset graphics config. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwxN8sCIOOE

oh and matchmaking is a given. you had it at one point in history, but you took it out. wtf
