Holy fucking shit
Quake is the best FPS I have ever played

>>720098589 (OP)
What other FPS have you played?

>>720099201
Halo Infinite
Modern Warfare 3

>>720099327
Out of that list, I'd agree.
Check out DOOM, Dusk, Painkiller, and Half Life.

>>720099327
Well, then you have a lot of excellent FPS to comb through.

Play quake live with me and the other 10 50 year olds that still play

>>720099516
I do sometimes
not very good though

>>720099428
I can't abide by the Dusk recommendation. Enemies have like no hit reactions, feels like shit.

>>720099428
>>720099935
Bhopping is too easy in DUSK. They should have made it harder to execute if you're gonna be allowed to move so fast.

Now go play it's addons.

Only on /v/.

>>720098589 (OP)
somehow quake1 never clicked for me and I've played everything since wolf3d

>>720098589 (OP)
It's alright. Super shotgun is gimped compared to its appearance in Doom and the nailguns aren't all that fun in singleplayer.

>>720098589 (OP)
Welcome to old school FPS shooters, where speed is just as important as crosshair placement.

>>720101490
what, the campaign? quake was never good. the only reason anyone played it (other than id's branding in the 90s) was because it got some game-changing mods like CTF, and internet optimization with a free/open server browser for normies who didn't know how else to play PC games online (many still didn't in the 2000s which is how xbox live got big).

>>720099327
Play tf2

>>720100842
>Active Directory was the first wad for quake I tried

Do NOT play arcane dimensions.

>>720098589 (OP)
Wish I could still play but after playing multiplayer for three months straight back in highschool, started having vivid nightmares about being trapped in dark rooms with no weapons & the literally mobs picking apart my buddies was horrifying & still haunt's me 21 years later

Sonic Mayhem did a pretty good on Q2. Not as unique as Q1's soundtrack, but the gnarly industrial metal worked really well for Q2 as well as being just sick on its own right.

>>720101549
>Super shotgun is gimped compared to its appearance in Doom
I just pretend that the Quake shotgun is equivalent to the Doom Pistol, and the Quake SS to the Doom shotgun. iD called it the Super Shotgun for the Doom reference on the surface but stripped all of the power it had.

Rocket jumping/bunny hopping is a gay concept

also played dusk and it was kinda shit desu. Asked what makes it good.

>uh, you can bunny hop and rocket jump

its like a cult of mental illness

>>720101853
the lgbtqpxxacr infestation legitimately disturbs me. I can't play TF2 anymore.

>>720101831
quake1's gameplay, much more prefer doom based and build games.

>>720098589 (OP)
I love that for you, OP. You should give Unreal Gold a try too.
Shit, play Duke Nukem 3D and maybe Serious Sam as well. And Half-Life!

Midnight bump

>>720103609
god forbid I try to talk to anon about fucking video games I guess fuck me

>>720103657
it's just to get a thread rolling.

>>720098589 (OP)
just started playing it for the first time cause of this post, yeah its pretty quality. unfortunate i didnt play it when it came out, played doom and RTCW but quake eluded me since i was busy gamesharking goldeneye and trying to get rank 1 in perfect dark.
makes me want to just play Painkiller for the 50th time tho

I want to play it on switch but I'm waiting for it to go on sale

>>720101853
It is unfortunately dead. All crits servers, troons and faggots everywhere, sandvich heavies dancing, only 2-3 maps populated. Gone are the days of 100s of custom maps available with full player counts, of rotations, of players actually playing. Truly a shame, I have thousands of hours in it and it crushes me to know those days won't be back.

>>720103941
this is the gayest thing people do on 4chan. just be sincere

>>720098589 (OP)
Quake is an LGBT faggot game and you are a tranny.

>>720101831
It is good. turbo normies just don’t know how to appreciate the SP and are filtered.

You are now hearing the grenade sound effects.

>>720105625
just the multiplayer only, the single player is the real shit

>>720104568
>try to get back into csgo ~5 years ago

not the same game i enjoyed anymore

>>720107551
RIP
When it happened with RTCW I was alright, figured better games were on the horizon for that series. TF2 hurts, at one point it legitimately was the most fun you could have online. Tears in rain

>>720104568
from the way you write, i assume you deliberately avoid matchmaking. i know it created it's own problem, but that is genuinely the only way you will be able to play vanilla tf2 on unique maps. server browser is now what you describe, matchmaking is real tf2 now

>>720104568
>>720107918
I agree with this guy. Community servers are dead, but matchmaking actually isn't half bad these days.
The only thing that really bothers me about matchmaking is that servers pretty much always empty out completely after a game, so if you end up in a match full of people you enjoyed playing with, you might not see 'em again for a while unless you add them as friends.

>>720108143
usually when i get a good match of tf2, majority people stay because they usually agree silently. however, matchmaking servers restart consistently after 3 matches, so even if everyone agrees to stay it always ends with an infinite map vote. pretty lame

>>720098589 (OP)
It has a cool theme and atmosphere and music. The sound is amazing. Some of the levels are really cool but the key shit really dates it. The enemy ai is unfortunately pretty bad and it makes the game too easy. It's not on half-life's level for single player but quake was always about the multiplayer anyway. Worth a playthrough just for the vibes.

>>720108295
wanted to get into this but having to put time in movement practice filtered me. what if i git gud at movement then realize i dont like the shootan

>>720108461
I would not recommend getting into quake multiplayer anymore, that ship has sailed. For single player you don't need any movement. It would be counterproductive or cheesy unless you're speedrunning.

>>720108461
the movement is the best part though

>>720101861
try The Spirit World, you can play it on the quake 1 remaster.

>>720108461
>>720108678
just play for fun
follow some youtube videos how to strafejump or do the other styles in test /bot matches

>>720098589 (OP)
Mechanically I think I might agree. The community stuff like Alkaline and Arcane Dimensions show you just how good the game can be with bigger and better maps. If it wasn't for enemy deaths just having them fall over I'd say it was perfect.

>>720101159
It's /v/. I've recently seen autists trying to accuse others of "hating videogames" because the person they're mad at enjoys something they don't. This place does not attract the mentally well for the most part.

>>720108678
Cool map, which mod is it from?

>>720109216
quake hampions

>>720108928
I genuinely wouldn't recommend it to him. The population is nonexistent and there is a huge learning curve. He'd get more out of putting that time into another competitive shooter. Also even when it was alive, the level of agency you have in quake ruins other shooters for you.

>>720101159
>>720109148
It's textbook autism. I'm not talking shit, that's really just what it is. They tend to have inappropriate reactions to differences in opinion.

>>720109393
that's why I would recommend it to him
especially with atleast some friends or just playing ffa clusterfucks

when you finally get to feel it learn how free and unchained you feel when moving around and shooting weapons that are actually different it's almost trancendental

also most of these games are free so there's absolutely nothing to lose

Guy who has only seen Baby Boss:
Baby Boss is the best movie I have ever seen

should i buy quake on switch

>>720098589 (OP)
Enjoyed the quake 2 remaster immensely. Especially with gyro aim. Quake 1 felt like a mishmash of ideas where q2 was coherently planned

>>720109216
It's from Quake Champions, but it's multiplayer only. It's just visuals for deathmatch maps. QC borrowed a lot of the lovecraftian aesthetic from quake 1. This one is kewl too.

>>720109613
I'd recommend like Dusk for that over quake if you're not a quake vet. It feels somewhat like quake movement feels if you're good at it, and there's an actual game to use in it. Selaco has some rudimentary but fun zoomy movement too.

I don't know why you'd bother learning quake mechanics at this point. Quake demanded a lot of people and gave back a lot, but it doesn't have anything to give back anymore. But if you did, I'd recommend fooling around with the character Slash. Crouchsliding is easy to learn and fun. But you'll never see it again in any game, just like the rest of this stuff.

>>720110335
yes, gyro aiming gives boomer shooters n switch a breath of fresh air. Ion Fury and Turok2 being the most fun with gyro due to headshots

>>720110335
It's not a bad port. The gyro controls are great.
If you're okay with occasional framedrops and stutters in Quake, of all things, go for it.

>>720098589 (OP)
its a slower, uglier doom with bullet sponge enemies spaced out 1-2 at a time.
important though for basically inventing 3D gfx, basically every game with 3D gfx has some old quake code in there.

>>720110437
wait does the performance suck or something
I have a switch 2 there's no way it drops frames on that does it

>>720110335
you can't bunnyhop on a controller so no.

>>720110335
1 - yes, make sure it has the new expansion machine games released in 2018 that comes in a bundle with steam version atleast (dimension of the machine I think it's called)

2 - no (imo quake 2 is a shit game)

>>720110586
its disabled on this port period. Fixed what was a broken mechanic some 30 years later

>>720110586
i learned how to bunnyhop on a controller
>>720110631
what really? they fucking took out the best part?
what version of quake isn't cucked?

>>720100842
Based. I can't stop playing this shit.

>>720111105
impulse 130

>>720110541
Oh, you'll be fine on Switch 2.
The performance doesn't suck by any means; the Switch is just a lightweight. The game is still totally playable and fun regardless.

i noticed that the blast radius on Quake games is like 1 foot from explosion. You HAVE to land that explosive on target

>>720111105
AD really is the best Quake content you can play.
The zoomers who stormed into the community and took over tried to replicate it with things like Dwell, but it's nowhere near as good.

>>720111235
1-2 have big splash, 3+ have small splash but higher velocity on the rocket

Quake 1 is one of the rare perfect games.
