reading the thread, i was agreeing most of the way that when all the quakes started they all had issues that were stupid and then improved up later. but what MKJ says is right.. since q4 MP (what we're really concerned about) is based so much on q3, it really seems that they have not learned anythin...

quake 3's netcode was improved over a variety of patches, i see no reason q4's can't as well.

i've had a similar problem with ra3, even when i set q3config to read only.. my solution was to copy my entire config into my autoexec.cfg and set that to read only.

also wanted to note.. it seems most purists don't like the q3dm6 remake because of item locations and certain jumps. i'm still at work and haven't had a chance to try it myself yet, but from what i read on ESR's comments page.. there's no ledges on the doorways to sit on, and the rail to bridge jump...

that looks pretty normal. a perfect connection will have no yellow.

i wouldn't increase in the net_clientmaxrate beyond 16000. i had it at 25000 for a while and when i put it back down to default my ping/performance was much better.

q4 is highly CPU dependent. concentrate on getting the fastest cpu you can afford.. i wouldn't worry about top end graphics card.

just to be clear.. vertex lighting is only in (new) q4max.. not in baseq4 right?

has a few different posts from users with benchmark scores. from what i can see, you can actually see improvements in resolutoins 1024x and under where it is cpu limited.

hey jester, we played on the unF arena server a few nights ago, i play as <<scarface

whats up

ra4 ftw

The pads fine for first person games, its just not as fast as the PC mouse/keyboard. But thats retarded you know, because you can plug an standard USB mouse/keyboard into your xbox 360 and get it working from the get go. unfortunately keyboard/mouse will not work in xbox games. usb keyboard support...

Hardly. I was good in Q3, more specifically RA3, and when I went into CoD I was in the top 3 nearly every time in frags simply because FPS skills do transfer. If the person you played was good in QW/Q2/Q3/UT200X, then they could easily just transfer those skills to Q4. Its not really amazing... i c...

i can't wait until the map11 remake! :icon27:

here's the thing i dont like about the weapon switching in relation to q3.. in a battle, you have RG, you decide to switch to RL so you hit the RL key while the RG is reloading.. but you decide you want to keep RG and try again so you tap RG key before RL comes out and while you still have RG on scr...

1. yes 2. 8/10 3. haven't touched SP.. to be honest i could care less, its all about the multiplayer crack fix :P can you please you find out who's idea it was to remake q3tourney6 (xaero space map) because its obvious they never played 1 hour worth of q3 multiplayer to realize that its one of the w...

there's a few things that helped me out.. fps tweaks helped, however on my system (2.3ghz amd mobile) it still chugs in heavy firefights. and putting on g_fov 100 helped in speeding things up and making it feel like q3 (also use fov 100)

i'd hit it


i agree with the others.. that just work on getting a beta out first before freaking out over lighting. we have to play it on our own .cfg's first before complaining.
