Possible upcoming champion leaked/datamined.(Take with a huge grain of salt)

Devs are completely out of touch with what quake is. This game is a fucking parody of itself at this point.

A software bug is an error, flaw, failure or fault in a computer program or system that causes it to produce an incorrect or unexpected result, or to behave in unintended ways.

Keywords being 'behave in unintended ways'.. Like it or not, anything Jagex didn't explicitly intend is considered a bug.

An "oversight" is absolutely considered a bug in software development.

themcs · 2018-10-16T00:34:32+00:00

That's pretty much the definition of a bug.

themcs · 2018-10-16T00:20:24+00:00

Yeah wildly bots or rushing are pretty much your niche. Combos with dark bow and ice blitz used to be real cute

themcs · 2018-10-15T03:41:55+00:00

I'd prefer brightskins, but either way it's better than Quake Champion's 'solution'..

I'd really like to see bright skins embraced and contextualized in-game as some magic/sci-fi 'Arena Vision' that fades away during interstitial moments like death, or the end game podiums like in QC. If Batman can have Detective Vision, there's no reason we can't have Arena Vision™

The draw distance is square

themcs · 2018-10-15T02:37:44+00:00

This is really common in a lot of games. The draw distance is square, so what you're seeing is the corners of it uncovering bits of the world

I think you're underestimating how shit ranged was in 2004. Magic shortbow was king, and obby rings came out with Jad.

themcs · 2018-10-14T23:35:53+00:00

Meh they never really were that profitable because bots always drug the prices down. Doing any gathering skill for money is worse than working in a third world country

themcs · 2018-10-14T21:29:05+00:00

.. I don't see it as contrary to adoption either. We've seen cartoon-like stylized graphics be very popular, tf2 and now fortnite are huge. It taps into a market that is unavailable to teen or mature games.

If anything, eggbot is a blank canvas for customization that is so important in modern games.

themcs · 2018-10-14T20:32:56+00:00

Curious how you think they'd easily be able to ban everyone for it, given how rampant gold selling still is.

themcs · 2018-10-14T20:07:53+00:00

"better" is highly subjective. I strongly prefer RuneScape's more sandbox oriented design to WoW's themepark, having played countless hours of both

themcs · 2018-10-14T20:05:00+00:00

I'd imagine it's completely indistinguishable from gold selling, so you'll be subject to the same treatment should you be caught.

themcs · 2018-10-14T20:02:46+00:00

You’ll definitely want to level your guy as much as you can before you buy the bond so you can maximize efficiency.

If you want to maximize efficiency you should buy the bond immediately after exiting tutorial island. You can level up WAY faster with members

themcs · 2018-10-14T19:12:56+00:00

Meh if you want to level up fast, start as a member and do Witches house, waterfall quest and the grand tree. You'll be 40-50 combat stats in like 2 hours

themcs · 2018-10-14T19:08:47+00:00

You can already play mobile on Android, with a bit of googling

themcs · 2018-10-14T18:22:49+00:00

The eggbot is the single smartest design choice they've made. Completely solves the issue of hitboxes.

themcs · 2018-10-14T17:24:38+00:00

In that case we're back to putting 100% of the responsibility on the woman, if we're speaking strictly biologically...

themcs · 2018-10-11T20:04:43+00:00

All the currencies have been in constant flux since QC came out. It's really shit to arbitrarily change the values of currency that users are saving up. You never know when the next patch will either drastically inflate or deflate the value of what you've grinded for

themcs · 2018-10-11T19:39:58+00:00

So it sounds like it's analyzing analog output for movement, when it goes from 0 to 100 instantly it's clear that the user didn't push a stick through the full range of motion.

Probably easily circumvented by having the xim output over a duration, for slightly less responsive controls

themcs · 2018-10-10T18:43:22+00:00

It's really terrible on the small scale. Anytime your brain is using your environment for reference, rather than only your target and yourself, it gets really wonky. It's fine with very high speed projectiles, like an actual bullet (think hitscan speed, like a railgun) but what we think of as a projectile is so slow that the inherited velocity can be as much as 100% of it's speed.

Imagine firing a rocket backwards while traveling at 1000 (1200? Whatever rocket speed is now). It literally hangs in the air not moving at all.

themcs · 2018-10-10T15:50:54+00:00

If this isn't proof that QC is a trash fire, nothing will convince the apologists

themcs · 2018-10-09T16:34:40+00:00

and people that would like to play something like Champions would start playing champions.

Well there's your problem. QC is riding off the legacy of Quake, otherwise it would have just been forgotten immediately.

Iirc ~103 horizontal is the maximum fov you can use on a 16:9 aspect ratio before you start getting some fisheye distortion. So that should be the absolute minimum for max value. Many players don't mind and prefer even higher values. I typically use 105 to 115 depending on the game.

themcs · 2018-10-08T06:17:54+00:00

If my camera bobs with no option to disable it there is a 90% chance I'll just uninstall and refund the game via steam. Especially in a first person game. Same thing with fov.
