Quake Champions features a roster of unique characters, each with their own distinctive abilities

Sigh... someone has been playing too much Overwatch over at Bethesda.

I saw a comment at Eurogamer by someone who said something along the lines of this not being ID Software enthusiasticly rekindling the Quake franchise but rather it being a jump on the hero shooter bandwagon.

I'll reserve judgment until I've seen more of it. Right now, I have the feeling this might turn out to be a fine game, but just Quake in name.

Exactly. Have some balls and put a new IP out there and leave Quake alone unless you are actually making a Quake game...he says after remembering Enemy Territory: Quake Wars still exists

Yea, can't really argue

Overwatch is pretty fun, so who knows, it could turn out alright. I'll reserve judgement until we all know more.

Digging Visor at the end.
Also, the music is very Doom2016.. looks like they found their new Sonic Mayhem

If you want to play the old quake again, just play the old quake again...

Provided they include mod support, I wouldn't worry about it being a class based arena shooter, it won't take much time for people to release Vanilla Q3 and a CPM mod with item pickups I'm sure. I mean if someone can turn Doom into a MOBA with the limited snapmap tools, how hard can it be to mod this?

I don't think I actually mind the class based thing, as long as it's fast paced and the movement is fluid.

I like that they're releasing it as an e-sports based title, that should mean it's pretty hardcore. I hope there will be dedicated servers as well as the inevitable matchmaking though, the best way to improve is to play mixed skilled people. I stopped playing dota2 eventually because of the frustration with team mates and the entire community's obsession with MMR.

Kinda looked like Q3DM6 to me...

Hmmm, well, if anything, it's cool to see some old Quake models with new CGI

I'm not interested in a class based quake, but I'll give it a shot. They don't do so well when they chase trends. If anything the success of overwatch and doom should help open the door for a return to twitch based arena shooters, somebody just has to build a fresh one from the ground up with modern sensibilities.

yea the clip looks cool tho

Post by **plained** » Mon Jun 13, 2016 1:20 pm

also

" twitch based arena shooters"

I'm worried about the level editing...if it's the same of doom we're gonna lose a lot of variety

Well.

We all agree on either Q3 being the perfect plain deathmatch shooter.
I guess we also agree on the genre being dead.

Would a simple remake with better graphics revive the genre? I doubt so.
