Quake Live is not only 10000000x better, but also free.

Quake 3 also has better 1v1, tdm, and ctf, as well as better maps for those things.

LG's probably the better weapon to learn if you just play FFA.

I'm not a FFA expert though, I don't mind it but I don't play it that often. But most FFA experts I've talked to say it's a lot about LG.

I recently discovered that I have little to no worthwhile multiplayer games, in addition, my rig sucks and my internet connection is shotty. But I do really want to play so I'll try to find a way.

Quake Live is based on a game released in 1999 or something. Jump in.

I downloaded it but I never played it before.

main thing to know is that bunnyhopping is kinda closer to goldsrc games than quake 3, ie you need to do a big swoop with your mouse while you jump to gain initial speed and you need to let go of +forward and hold down a strafe key to gain momentum.
I never played those either but yea I know how Quake 1 jumping works kinda. I'm not good at it since I've only played Quake 1 once but w/e. Isn't there other poo poo like having binds that swap to guns to shoot and then go back to axe when you aren't shooting so you don't drop ammo or whatever.

Keep in mind the only game on my PC I played until like 2009 was Diablo and tycoon games.

Wormskull

Can you not bind M1 to +forward and M2 to jump.

Wormskull
Aug 23, 2009

I'm just kidding although can you do M2 to jump because the nquake installer didn't have it as a option.

Duel is probably better but FFA is kind of dull IMO. Even the people complaining about campers stood on LG or RL as much as they can lol.

Wormskull
Aug 23, 2009

Well at least when you do move and manage not to be instantly killed its fairly fast. Some of the moving around is a little irritating on like stairs and poo poo but I'm just used to QL and it's how Q1 was I guess.

Wormskull
Aug 23, 2009

Other stuff probably due to old age like the controls and the feedback I don't like much either. I'm too much of a newbie in the FPS world.

its really the 4on4 tdm where quakeworld shines. cpma does the same type of dueling better and ffa is fun for a while just for being so totally over the top

Oh yeah I was also thinking TDM is probably a lot better.

there are most certainly maps made for 4v4 ctf, since that was the main competitive game mode for ut2k4. we just didnt play any of them

Why are you choosing to play games in a way that you yourself believe aren't the best. Like start out with the good CTF maps instead of the bad ones and coming back to the thread and saying "Well we didn't do the good ones." Or like FFA in QW... Just find a TDM server.
