Been looking forward to see what this game would be like, only tried it for 5 minutes running around and stuff looks cool, movement like nothing i've tried b4.

A while back they said it was sposed to be perfectly balanced, weapon wise. Might be a nice filler till quake4 for me, try it.

Its free, multiplayer only but no local dl or server yet tho :(

The movement pysics are worse than Quake 3 :P.

Anyone tried a Rocket jump in a large open map? :rofl:

[VirtualForce]

Bar one, for a 25hour day.

*hands shrimp a bar one*

;)

[<A>BioGizzard]

u should give him fish flakes not chocolate, dewd

[zero-1]

Ye i agree with the weapons, they are kinda bleh, but the emovement allows for easy adaption for both ut and q3 players, oh and those ppl that play that <insert 2 witty words strating with c and s> game.

How about a local sevrer? any1 got any strings they can pull?

Jon

Anyone played it against another person yet?

[<A>FluX.v2.0]

yes I was testing it and some dude joined.. he was lagging like a mofo.... and he got hurt.

[zero-1]

i could try cre8 a server tonight, if any1 is keen. Come on to irc #q6

[Wh1tE_Tr4sH]

The map shown here, is an old quake map... I remember playing it at collage..!!

[zero-1]

q1dm6, ye great map :D i roxor old school q1 players on that map (in q1). Isn't quake1 like older than me...lol

Jon

[Floruro]

Yes, but most of the guys competing play at gfx settings that makes UT2004 look like q1. So dont worry you are not missing out :rolleyes: So much for 2004....

[VirtualForce]

Well, for one thing, the rocket is slower than a Quake 2 rocket... :( Movement, as Zero-1 mentioned is strange. Still wanna try it out mp sometime.

Oh and yeah, rocket jumping is way too powerful, like being on quad! :P

[<A>BioGizzard]

then u should try granade jumping with that quad like thing
the only thing weird about the movement for me is the tilting
when strafing, strafe jumping is also new to me

[[B.Inc]=_sNaKe_=]

Quake noob asks : Whats a strafe jump?

[sneaky]

Quake noob asks : Whats a strafe jump?

Its this gay thing you do when trying to do something other than a normal jump.

[[B.Inc]=_sNaKe_=]

Define..."gay thing"

[<A>BioGizzard]

jumping while holding in the direction button....gives u a boost to move faster or sum thing. pretty shit if u ask me...guess i'm to used to dodge jumping.

[VirtualForce]

q1dm6, ye great map :D i roxor old school q1 players on that map (in q1). Isn't quake1 like older than me...lol

Jon

If you are refering to the above map as a q1dm6 look a like, its not.
This is quake 1 dm6

[zero-1]

Never saw he was reffering to the screenie, only noticed q1dm6 in the maplist. Its like the only quake1 map i know :S The one in the screenie is a quake1 map?!

Fact of the day: Strafe jumping was originally a bug in the quake engine, which turned out to be the most popular type of movement in FPS history.

Jon

[<A>BioGizzard]

does that bug have anything to do with the way we move in ut?
u know like it might have sparked the idea for it being popular and all...

[Terror]
