Quake 3 Character resistances to weapons

I haven't played Quake 3 in a long while and a friend just told me that there are certain characters that have the best speed and resistances to certain weapons. Now, I have never heard such nonsense in all the years I've been playing, and I've been searching all over the internet for this kind of information but can't find it, so I'm assuming he is wrong since he didn't even cite a source.

Do characters really have different speeds and resistances? :confused:

Thanks for clearing it up

^This.

The PS2 port, Quake III Revolution, has character classes where different models have different speeds, etc. it is possible your friend was playing the PS2 version and not the PC / Dreamcast version.

its SP only on PS2 so it makes sense when you think about it, actually.
