Started maybe a week ago. I don't think I will be improving at all since I'm playing with this:

I can really only use the rocket, hahaha. Max mouse sensitivity for me. It is very fun though and I don't think I will stop for a while.

I really like the engine. It was made in a very intelligent way. And the graphics don't look horrible.

Yesterday I encountered an aim-bot, though. He possessed 100% perfect aim once I was in his reach. The forums are also full of people complaining about hackers.


I got called a blatant hack 3 months into playing the game. I somehow got matched up in a tier 1/2ish CTF server as a tier 4/5, and 15 minutes into the game I had 45 kills, 2 deaths, 5 caps and 1 assist. My lg accuracy was ~60%(scornforge, 'nuff said), my overall accuracy was about 70%. I wasn't good, they were just abysmally bad, think, "run in straight lines shooting you with mg on spawn" bad. But I think everyone on the opposing team reported me....I had 2 people speccing me, and they were saying I had a wallhack, health hack(doesn't exist), aimbot, and even a strafe jump bot. The last is the funniest because i was and still am quite bad at strafe jumping. But apparently gaining speed while jumping = hacks.

After that game I was accused of hacking plenty of other times, but I never again took anyone seriously when they said they saw someone hacking unless I saw it myself. And I saw maybe 3 obvious hackers in my entire 2 years of playing QL..........and 2 were in instagib.

I'm tier 3 (or 4, don't know) myself and I know that the engine allows for huge skill gaps and the top percentile will dominate a usual public server in an almost invincible way. But in that case it was quite obvious. I should look after the demo recording commands, so I could show someone. He possessed almost 100% aim. Once I was in his reach, he instantly hit, no matter the direction.

There have been quite a few cheaters lately, though. The blatant type, obviously. I've seen like ~10 the last month in T4 CA servers in Europe. It's annoying, but it's not a big deal. Other games are way worse.

Well, they should just ban them. CS 1.6 had cheaters as well, but this servers are easily observable by its company. It's very easy to ban blatant hackers. Iccup does it, too, and their admins don't have a salary.

He didn't quit, he just switched teams. mouz begged him to stay according to the article on SK, but the conditions offered by Moscow 5 were too good. I don't quite see how is this sad, for anyone but mouz, that wouldn't pay him enough.

Quake is done. Sure, people still watch big tournaments and such, but its fanbase is ridiculously small, and there are no up and coming duel type shooters on the horizon, so it makes sense to get rid of your Quake divisions. No money there. Sad but true. Noone wants to play FPS games that actually require skill any more. They'd rather play CoD:37.

Yeah, they should, but I don't think id's any good at it. Afaik, the way players are banned nowadays is if other players record demos and send them to support@quakelive.com. This'll take some time to process, and it doesn't seem like they've put much effort into preventing them from making new accounts. It's different from CS 1.6 in that QL is free-to-play, so they'll just come back without having to spend anything.

There's this one cheater I see all the time, but with a slightly modified nick. So I searched his name, and this is what I got:

[image loading]

The number of results are capped at 99, so who knows how many more accounts this guy has. He has been hacking for over a year, after all.

It would be a good start to deal with this if they want QL to live, but I don't think id has any plans to do so any time soon, QL's practically dead at this point.

Fuck, everytime I watch videos like this one, I get sad for not having played Quake when it was in its prime. Amazing fragmovie, really.

Q3A really was the Broodwar for the FPS genre. It's a shame it's dying/dead because nothing else can really compare.

its never too late to start playing quake live mino.
in the beginning it might be hard (although compared to quake 3 you have a lot of other newbs who are just trying out the game or playing it very casually), but once youre able to move and aim semidecent it becomes one of the most rewarding games youve ever played.

just try out some of the gamemodes and stick to what youre having fun with

This is how I feel

I keep thinking what it would take to revive/remake the Quake series into another mainstream title and I just don't know. It needs to happen, though. If Quake dies for good, I'm afraid we'll never know another true desktop fps.

Hehe, I play a lot of QL already. It's just that I'm really bitter that QL, and also the genre, is dying so quickly. I just wish I was there when Quake was big, I guess.

i fear that another FPS won't happen

id is working on rage, and then on doom4, so until the next _possible_ good multiplayer fps comes out it will take years and other companies.... well they gave up on good shooters years ago

thanks for the video

arena style FPS videos are the only videos where I can appreciate the skill displayed in them

videos of FPSes based off of more realistic weapons rarely entertain me because it almost always just showcases hitscan ability and very little map awareness/prediction/movement skill

maybe it's because the FPS I grew up with was the original UT, but pure hitscan is nice for a short while but it quickly becomes boring to me

7:18 was SICK albeit a lot of luck and experience

john carmack already said that one of their teams has started working on quake 5 if i remember correctly. obviously rage and doom will come first, but i hope quake isnt too far away. after all the idtech5 engine is done so maybe we can expect quake in like 2 years
