thats so funny, I love the crouch slideOeloe wrote:Every time i play Q4 i wish i wouldn't slide when i crouch to actually slow down (when getting in position for a hard CJ). :X Also the sliding off edges and small jump height annoy me. Conclusion: i don't play Q4 enough to get used to the differences.
Well said. I agree completely.jester! wrote:I think that the community expected/wanted a new MP focused Quake, which is not what was delivered is all.
I have fun, and will keep playing until its truly dead, give it a year really before calling it finished and see where things are then. When the WT kicks up I think it should be fun to see what happens, and as long as there are groups like Q4Max and XBM working to improve on the base game, and some TIMELY patches are ever released all should be fine imo.
People find that a game is perfect for them, it happened with QW, Q2, and especially Q3/CS. People wont move on because they have invested so much time into the game and thats a shame really imo.
New games, new players, new challenges and all that. If you spend the time getting used to Q4, I atleast, have found that I like the movement more, the weapons are for the most part the same, and its a good time.
Just get the fucking patch out Raven... :icon26:
ive only had a pc for a lil over a year and i know it blows, the fact that your blinded and cant feel any difference is most likely an example of your lack of skill. they went for "realism" and not fun, this will destroy it. unless there is a large team with alot of time to make a total conversion mod, the only game built off this engine that will be any kind of success will be ET: quakewarsjester! wrote:People find that a game is perfect for them, it happened with QW, Q2, and especially Q3/CS.

I played Q3 from a few months after release, until 2004, I went a few years where I was playing roughly 5 hours a day, I know the difference, but you can take your elitist stance all you like I dont mind. :icon26:Runningman wrote:ive only had a pc for a lil over a year and i know it blows, the fact that your blinded and cant feel any difference is most likely an example of your lack of skill. they went for "realism" and not fun, this will destroy it. unless there is a large team with alot of time to make a total conversion mod, the only game built off this engine that will be any kind of success will be ET: quakewarsjester! wrote:People find that a game is perfect for them, it happened with QW, Q2, and especially Q3/CS.

and i bet you never even touched defrag to really see and feel how q3 actually is.
Well one could argue that Raven did go for more realism. Movement (and sounds) feels much more like a real marine would move, with a 50 kg backpack on that is... Weapon models also look less cartoony like in Q3 and more realistic (taken straight from the SP part where realism is to be expected).jester! wrote:Q4 went for realism? Is that what your saying there? As has been said way to many times for there still to be people out there that dont know it, Q4 is based very heavily on Q3, many properties and settings are straight ports. The major difference is the scale which wasnt taken into account for several things, but realism?
I did mess with defrag, hopping around a map isnt what Q3 was all about for me, so I dont see how it would show me what Q3 actually is any more then OSP/CPMA/RA3 would. Sure seems to have been the answer for you though...
but its pretty!
