Quake 5 = Quake Champions
Credit to the people who posted about this, it definitely deserves it's own thread......

Quake Champions trailer: https://youtu.be/sa-6fQyNkZo

The game will feature a "diverse character of warriors" with unique attributes and skills.

Well, fuck. We Overwatch now, boys.
Also will be outsourced to Saber Interactive.

I know, it's impossible appeal at same time for Q1 fans, strogg fans (Q2/Q4) and mp players (Q3/QLive) but this is just something completely out of this world.

Quake Champions 
I am torn on this because I fucking loved Quake 3 back in the day. It's one of the most honed and perfect FPS MP experiences of all time. The perfect mix of arcadeyness and skill.

However I feel like it's shit that Quake isn't getting the Wolf/Doom treatment. It's half-arsed and basically shows id's lack of love for ol' Quake. Hell, the best gift we got was an episode made by JF Gustafferson (or whatever his name is, sorry if I got your name wrong).

On the other hand I probably will drop money on Quake Champions BECAUSE of my love for Q3. Also the arenas look pretty decent so far. 
It's Because Doom 2016 Did Well 
The Doom and Quake single-player stuff is basically interchangeable in terms of how it would play these days. Same mechanics, weapons, powerups. Demons vs shotguns.

I think we're gonna see Doom = SP, and Quake = MP from here on out, because that's the only tangible gameplay difference between the two brands at this point. 
Q3A Was Terrible As An MP Game Before QL Fixed It Tho. 
Broken damage feedback and player visibility to say the least. 
Maybe Quake V Will Be A Doom 2016 Expansion Pack 
 
Quake Live Fixed It? 
Not sure about that, loadouts and a lack of item placement took away a lot of the fun for me 
Oh I Meant Before Loadouts Ruined QL, Yeah. 
Basically it's all fucked. When's the Doom4 SP DLC again?? 
 
When's the Doom4 SP DLC again

Those resources are probably being put into a full-blown sequel, if they've got any sense. 
I Expect 
that they'll want to reboot Doom 2 and we can have hell on earth 
 
DOOM
DOOM II
DOOM 3
DOOM (2016)
DOOM 2 (2022)

Anarki is now a Borderlands "character".

Fuck this game. 
I'm Impressed. 
Each video it gets consistently, mesmerisingly, yet surprisingly worse. Just when you think the game looks to be as shit as shit can be....can't wait for what's next. 
Well.... 
...they did outsource the game to some el cheapo studio. What did you expect? Quality? 
Hahahahahahaha 
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

thats so hilariously atrocious. Wow, if that were intentionally bad for comedy purposes they'd be absolutely nailing it 
New Video 
"Quake Champions - Raw Arse Trailer"

https://youtu.be/wjr6FgRz360 
It Looks Ok 
nothing innovative or truly exciting.

The dialogue is really terrible though 
Looks Very Pretty 
aside from the champion voices, the sound is really nice. I like the announcer's voice as well. Seems like Q3A with new paint. this should please some people? 
The Fuck? 
the sound is really nice

He picks up a Quad and there is no quad sound.

All weapons are weak and have zero bass.

Ridiculous "DONK" from Q3A on hitting another player is back. 
Sounds, Cont. 
He picks up a Quad and there is no quad sound.

The sounds that exist so far, anyway.

All weapons are weak and have zero bass.

Yeah, the weapon sounds are pretty quiet. They could be pushed a bit. However, in frenetic mp games I prefer a more subtle audio profile, otherwise it tends to be fatiguing.

When I said "sounds nice" I was really referring to the ambience, the jump, weapon switch and other little sounds. The jump sound is a big upgrade.

Anyway, I was checking out the latest unreal tournament update last night and something caught my attention: quad-damage. UT has quad damage as well, which is pink/purple and looks like the quake symbol with some minor embellishments. I'd like to know the story behind that. 
It Dumb As Shit! 
 
 
Gotta have the donk. Don't touch my donk. 
Same Problem As Quakelive 
Why do we need another q3?

oh, and n=1-classes are such a bad idea. 
Also 
I wonder if they did some proper research before posting THESE videos.

- mega chaos
- no teamplay visible
- typical dm problem of "everybody clumps up in one room, and the rest of the map is empty"

Are buyers into that? 
I'm Here To... 
...awe hell you know the script. 
Needs More Donk. 
I sort of see what Killpixel needs. There is a decent echoey hollowness to the ambient and more distant sounds, it suits the spacious arena and the crushingly empty and vacuous rehash of Q3A this POS is. 
Only Noob Want Ambant Sound
