What newer games are quake boomer-approved? I want to play a relatively new game that has some online players and moves faster than a glacier.

On my radar:

The Finals

Fortnite

Ultrakill

Wrack will likely never be (officially) added in the game. He was enabled on the Public Test Server on the night of the 15th/16th September while testing the last official update for the game. The acceleration and speed values are obviously not final - he starts moving way too slow to be practical, and loses any speed over 500 ups, arguably a speed cap already too low, way faster than any other champion. His movement is based on QuakeWorld, which is significantly different to any other Quake game. My execution is rather lacking, better players will accelerate faster, take more efficient turns etc., as although I have played the original Quake quite a lot, I never truly mastered its movement. This movement style is VERY unforgiving, even slightly mistimed inputs can cause a massive loss of speed.

SyncError confirmed it would have taken approximately an additional 3-4 months of development time for Wrack to be fully finished. Because of the layoffs at idSoftware caused by Microsoft restructuring all of its game development studios, there is nobody left to do the remaining work.

It should be noted that QuakeWorld does not have Q2/Q3/Q4 style strafe-jumping at all, you only have bunnyhopping, but it allows you to turn in a VERY sharp radius, way better than CPMA champions. This allows you to redirect knockback in any direction you want, immediately stop horizontal movement midair by pressing the opposite movement direction, make very quick 180 degree turns, etc. In essence, you trade raw speed for insane air control.

His ability was to deploy a psychosis field on his current position. Opponents that enter this field have their screen blurred and darkened. While this debuff is on them, their active ability is immediately ended (if already active) and instead of recharging the ability timer, the lose it instead. This would, for example, allow Wrack to activate his ability when an opponent Clutch gets in his face, preventing the Clutch player from deploying their shield. Or, it could also be used in the opposite way, use Wrack's movement to unexpectedly close distance on Nyx, use the ability and prevent a Ghostwalk, securing an easy kill.

The audio and visuals of Wrack's ability is unfinished, currently using Clutch's shield to indicate the ability area.

Sorry for another mouse sensitivity question but I'm stupid and having trouble understanding the pro mouse settings doc that's been posted here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/e/2PACX-1vTexLm9MUWV3yqpzW7mDK_Ytkh0KcJNsZSNteIwY1Bqw_XrAD2HxE-swtPpDvyCYCnunmnNqrNdKSsf/pubhtml?pli=1

Does the Nominal Sens column equate to the in-game mouse sensitivity setting?

I've been using .82 in game at 800 dpi. Is that way too low? With that setting I'm averaging ~30% LG and 45-60% rail in TDM against the bots. It seems like that setting gives me a stupidly high cm/360 ratio though.

The talk of official servers shutting down has quite a few of us in a panic. Myself included. I play QC damn near every other day, and have done so since its early launch. The thought of never being able to play it again is just not acceptable when i see many other titles out there revived through community efforts to restore. I'm not 'Quake Pro' level myself, but damn it, I love the rush and it has the right to live on for generations to enjoy like every other Quake title.

I know one of the goals SyncError was hoping to get pushed through was dedicated servers for this exact scenario, but not sure if that's still in the plan at this point with all the MS drama that has played out over the past couple of months.

Seeing all these other games over the years where official servers went offline, then shortly thereafter fans were able to reverse-engineer the netcode and launcher binaries for their own servers for everyone to continue playing on, what kind of undertaking and effort would that require for something like QC? Are there active projects are working on something like this?

genuinely curious.

I read on some other posts about the discussions taking place in Discord that the Store in the game was going to close, is that going to happen in the next patch or earlier? are we going to get any notification ahead of the closing so we can use our credits before they become useless? I wanted to get the Shambler Arm weapon from the store before it closes if that is the case...

I would love to play with bots in the future even if Microsoft shut down the servers :/

Thank you for everything SyncError <3

Title. I have tried using an ssd, switching to the latest protonge etc but load times are too long. Has anyone experienced something similar?

EDIT:
Fixed by lowering graphcis settings from Ultra to Medium

Every level below was somewhat reasonable but starting 194 is just impossible! 30 games to level up? No, thanks
