Func_Msgboard: Quake 5 = Quake Champions

Posted by Shambler on 2016/06/13 10:32:27

Credit to the people who posted about this, it definitely deserves it's own thread......

Quake Champions trailer: https://youtu.be/sa-6fQyNkZo

The game will feature a "diverse character of warriors" with unique attributes and skills.

Well, fuck. We Overwatch now, boys.
Also will be outsourced to Saber Interactive.

I know, it's impossible appeal at same time for Q1 fans, strogg fans (Q2/Q4) and mp players (Q3/QLive) but this is just something completely out of this world.

they do?

If shamblers have fur - then so does shub-niggurath. Compare their skins - same "texture".

Huh

#158 posted by killpixel on 2017/05/14 21:21:26

there's no official mention either way in the manual.

found this in the quake wiki:

In Quake, a Shambler is a large yeti-like beast with a blood-stained shaggy coat, a very large mouth displaying enormous fangs, no visible eyes, and sharp claws.

This has been questioned before.

Champions is considered canon, right?

Not fur.

Just Played

Sound gets repetitive quickly, but it's good fun.

Tried It

Seems alright - plays more or less like what you'd expect a Q3A graphical upgrade to play like I suppose. If the release version has a proper solo/bot mode I might pick it up. Otherwise pass - I'd rather shave my balls with an angle grinder than play online against actual people.

Nice Multiplayer Hype There :)

I doubt it will have an offline mode tbh.

Is obviously not a shambler then.

Hehe

Really Useful Video.

Shows it off well. It seems to be doing a pretty good job of doing Q3A2 with classes.

And as such it can suck my prolapse.

The Dreamlands plot point is a nice throwback to the Lovecraftian origins of Q1 and its scraped fantasy-based plot.

IMO it's a bit of a waste to create a good background history for QChamps rather than using it on a proper single player experience, but oh well.

I Wouldn't Mind A Quake Comic...

Eight Minute Quake Champions Ad

id Software, 25 years of FPS

I know this isn't supposed to be one, but this just rekindles my longing for a proper making-of. I was studying doom 2016's maps again the other day just wishing I could find interviews with the combat designers, level designers, artists, modelers and sound designers where they actually talk about the nitty gritty stuff. It seems like the majority of modern making-ofs are just studio heads talking about an ip's legacy :/
