Why the hell should it be bad when pro players themselves has been apart of the whole process , aswell as iD knowing that this will the MOST critical patch !

with the 1.3 its a faster game then quake3 , and the weapon balance should be probably better then quake3 aswell(rail not as dominant with faster rockets) .

voodoochopstiks - Reply to #21

they turn up the movement acceleration, and as far as I have heard the rocket speed has not been turned up as much as the acceleration. This probably leads to even more railgun domination if I get to guess.

<< Comment #73 @ 17:32 BST, 31 July 2006 >>

By

berth - Reply to #51

don't think so.
with faster acceleration + faster rockets + more knockback (iirc) it should become easier to get into a rail-abuser's face and bumb him all over the place.

<< Comment #114 @ 17:44 BST, 31 July 2006 >>

Exactly and faster acceleration makes it less easy to consistantly rail a dodging player.

<< Comment #123 @ 17:47 BST, 31 July 2006 >>

By

X-term - Reply to #114

Rail will still be as dominant as ever, just like it was in q3.........The only proper solution would be a delay on rail kinda like the rl has/had in q4

<< Comment #197 @ 18:11 BST, 31 July 2006 >>

You would need tighter friction to accompany it for quick dodging, sadly...but they might have cranked that up, too. :) *hopeful*

If you were playing q4base, that is.

At least one of the performance boosts in 1.3 is already present in q4max 0.75 (and I'm not referring to the ambient lighting, which is another source of these extra fps).

i'm pretty sure that the pro players who bootcamp and practice 24 hours/day *SHOULD* be able to adjust to this relatively fast considering they play as much in a few days that normal players play over a month or more... but, alas, i realize that 1.2 will be used for qcon. it just would be cool if qcon used 1.3 to show how it plays in a big competition.

All QuakeCon 2006 Quake 4 tournaments will be using the 1.2 Point Release due to the limited amount of time available for players to adjust to the new gameplay changes, however, all BYOC servers will be running the 1.3 Point Release, so it is suggested that everyone patch to 1.3 except for those who may wish to keep a separate 1.2 copy for use of practicing prior and during the tournament.

uh...thanks for stating the obvious, genius. as if i hadn't already read that, which is why i said "alas, i realize that 1.2 will be used at qcon." it seems i need to spell it out for you...i know that qcon will be using 1.2 for the tournament - their reason being that players won't have enough time to adjust - however, i feel that for a pro player who bootcamps and practices all day long there is plenty of time to adjust. please don't reply with some dumbass copy and paste stating something obvious again. thanks.

actualy im maybe gonna say something you "already read" but even a pro who bootcamp all day long bla bla like you say cannot practice it for the only reason that q4max isn't even made for the 1.3 patch, and as the q4max team say they're gonna try to get it for the quakecon, like only 1 or 2 days before. thats the reason quakecon can't force the 1.3 patch for the tournaments.

* Multiplayer weapon damage and movement values have been adjusted.
* The player will now respawn based on his/her last combatant's location.
* Shotgun hit sounds will no longer drop.
* The game no longer has to be relaunched to access more than 4 netdemos.
* The wrong icon will no longer appear for certain clients after a team shuffle.
* Spawn auto-complete in the RCON window will no longer crash.
* Voting for Team DM and certain maps will no longer load the wrong map.
* The Apply Changes button in the Options menu has been removed.
* A crash will no longer occur in Tourney if a finalist disconnects.
* A player's name will no longer change to that of the player in the demo if a NetDemo is played.
* Time Limit Hit will no longer be displayed in the wrong circumstances.

OMG!!! I sure hope there 90% of their fixes are'nt listed. This is sure death for Q4?

"Multiplayer weapon damage and movement values have been adjusted. "

How about some insight into that? Because that doesn't tell me anything..

It was discussed in the other thread.

Here is the list from what I can gather:

Faster jumping acceleration, further crouch sliding, smaller hitboxes
Machine Gun: No change
Shotgun: More fixed spread
Hyperblaster: Projectiles fire and travel faster
Grenades: No change.
Rockets: Travel faster, more knockback, smaller rockets
Railgun: No change
Lightning Gun: Less knockback/stick

I probably missed some stuff out though ;)

edit: never mind they're posted officially now :))

Nail-Gun sounds imba to me, no rail changes either which was the main concern of all involved although the other weapons might bring the rail more into balance in it's current state....

The quicker movement itself nerfs the railgun. Strafing from side to side is much quicker and harder to hit now.

hope some more people start playing now tho' or this addon was mostly wasted material -- since the most hardcore, most reluctant to change are the ones playing q4, and the chances that they will try out or even acctually start playing these new mods are pretty slim, so slim that it seems impossible without influx.. err, reluctant to change from the quake-series that is. that, or move away from the fast paced fps competition-community..

I like quake 4 as much as the next guy, and I'm very excited about the patch, but this just seems like it is in vain. The last major tournament for q4 is probably going to be Quakecon, and after that Quake 4 will probably not be played too much anymore. There might be one or two more events, but I feel with the CPLs move to Quake 3, the life of Quake 4 is limited. Furthermore, most of these changes I feel are redundant and have already been accompished by the mod teams. I'm not saying this patch isn't good for Quake 4, because it definately is, but it is just too little, and FAR too late.

<< Comment #456 @ 20:18 BST, 31 July 2006 >>

regardless, Q3's life is limited too, as it simply is old now. People really shoudl move to Q4 for this patch, as it has given them what they have asked for. The community map makers just have to produce some decent efforts, and then the infrastructure is there.

taken from an older thread -

"or go on start -> cmd-> and type: d:Quake4_update_1.1-1.2.exe -a and it will ask you where to install (thx drach)"

of course you'll have to replace the filename and location.

hope this works.

Which in turn was taken from Q1, since CS uses the Q1 engine (with some Q2 graphical features), including the Q1 console. You will notice that almost all Q1 console commands also work in HL/CS. So they are ripping it off their own game series, if anything.

mhm acceleration is kinda too fast i think in 1.3,

I absolutely must agree. Q3 seems really slow compared to this. If you master crouchsliding really well it is like flying all over the map.
Air control has increased as well.

The overall feel is just the same (you'll quick get used to it) just that it is faster and (for me) a lot smoother.

Even without ambientlight I get absolutely stable 60FPS standing at the GL on q4dm7 (edge). I got 40FPS before there. Performancewise it enhanced my quake more than the (great) q4max improvements did.

OMG flying around those new map "firewall" was just crazy!!!

Also they did change sounds for the better. RL doesn't blow your brain out anymore and mg is much less anyoing as well. Footsteps are cooler now.

Unfortunately I really can't tell you poor Win32 users without OpenAL Cards, if they have improved the broken sound. It was fine for me from the first q4 release (linux). I hope they fixed it...

Ah lets go fly around a little bit more :-)

the game seems more responsive now. I like the weapon adjustments, can go higher with an rj now. the hb seems mroe effective now. The sg spread still sucks because it's random. The best thing is the movement, which is genuinely improved from the increased acceleration. The napalm gun is a bit of a joke.

They actually created one notable bit of nice aesthetic in one of the maps. The map is a big arena, and has quad high int he sky, and ya below it across the lower jumpads. In this map, there is a mh underground, this is the area which looks nice and quakey. Dark, and red and atmospheric. Mappers should incorporated this sort of look into their work, using colour variants too.

you will not be able to use q4max if you upgrade.
If you just want to try it out I would strongly recommend you to make a complete copy of your installation, as you don't know when updated mods will ship.
This way you will easily be able to move back to 1.2 for your daily q4 dose (at least thats what I am doing.)

Thats about how i feel too.

doesnt "feel" right.. is all i can say. Models move with funny animation and are so out of place somehow.

Also if you press forward while crouching.. the crosshair moves down a bit and you actually aim a little lower, while in q3 you could either remove the "moving screen while walking" or just get used to it and ignore it becouse you weren't really aiming where the crosshair pointed. So its really impossible to crouch, move and aim very precicely (it moves too while walking but not as much).

A lot of great stuff here. g_forceambient is nice, and love the speed and most of the gameplaychanges. The only complaint I have about this new content so far, is that the SG seem to nerfed a bit too much. I'd rather that it was more nonrandom.

Sync, just noticed with the sound that if you hold fire in on the shotgun, the sound of every second shot is cut a bit short. And this is actually only when using OpenAL for once.

hmm i have mixed feelings about this. the speed and other gameplay changes are really nice but it's nothing that GTR didn't do quite a while back. i know its a big difference when they're made default but i kinda expected more from this patch for all the time taken, especially in the sound and netcode departments which seem to have been neglected. the game seems smoother than before. weapons are much more responsive than they were earlier but since i've been playing a lot of Q3 in the past weeks, i still find the 60 fps cap really annoying.

napalm gun pwns and the RL is much better now :D

there is a sound problem when holding fire on the ng when you have the quad, it kind of stops in a regular way every few shots

all in all though, the patch is excellent. Much faster game now, overall seems much faster than q3 when you can utilise the movement well.

Everyone should take up Q4 now, no real excuses. It's become a good quake game. Give it some nurturing now in terms of maps, and players migrating over if they are able to give things a second chance.

I just want to say that Ritualistic(the ones responsible for the new maps, right) are fucking idiots. The patch speeds up the game and they spit out a bunch of tiny, cramped maps, because god forbid you get to strafe-jump more than three times.

Otherwise the game is fast when strafejumping, but that speed makes the game feel very heavy(for me) when walking or dodging. And there's another thing - you still find yourself in situations, jumping from x to y, where you think you've just landed the jump and then you fall straight down. Really annoying, especially if you're used to the q3 jumping where you think you'd fall down, yet you make the jump. I'm not saying "make it like q3", but please do something about it.

I like the napalm gun.

Tchouky - Reply to #642

this is due to how q4 handles the step ups (terribly in my opinion).
when the game was released it handled them sooo badly that they were only allowed when you were walking, which prevented you to strafe on stairs....

so they made a quick fix allowing you to step up while in the air, but only if you re close to the ground.

in quake3 step ups are allowed (pretty much) all the time.

this is what makes (made) bridge 2 rail on q4dm9 (dm6) impossible .
If you miss your jump by one unit, you re screwed, whereas in q3 you can still make it.

This is what i dislike the most about q4, this little change would make the game feel alot smoother.
Movements should make you feel 'free' like they do in q3, whereas in q4 you have to struggle to control your character.

btw, that little change takes less than one single line of code, and it was added in GTR gtx physics.

anyway, i would really like id to fix that.

Ok, now I can just take the "fucking" out of there, but they're still idiots. Maps are still waaaaay cramped, and there aren't any open spaces. Another thing - do you notice how because of the bigger models(or what was it) everything looks small. I mean dm6 is a huge map in q3 and in q4 it's a midget.

The patch speeds up the game and they spit out a bunch of tiny, cramped maps, because god forbid you get to strafe-jump more than three times.

Even though, as Bandit says, id changed the player speed after those maps were created, I still think those maps are way too cramped and small even for Q4 1.2. Most Q4 maps feel like rat-runs, and it's mostly because the engine has such poor performance that mappers are forced to keep visibility low and rooms well divided with teleporters and right angled passageways :/

Otherwise the game is fast when strafejumping, but that speed makes the game feel very heavy(for me) when walking or dodging. And there's another thing - you still find yourself in situations, jumping from x to y, where you think you've just landed the jump and then you fall straight down. Really annoying, especially if you're used to the q3 jumping where you think you'd fall down, yet you make the jump.

This is what really puts me off about Q4.
I absolutely hate the acceleration on gravity (if that's the right term),
just as you think you've made the jump you seem to stop midair and drop straight down, feels terrible :(

Feels like rather than it being a smoothish curve as gravity kicks in
(for a circle strafe jump or running jump), instead it's like a spike at of gravity that kicks in late, stopping the player in his tracks.

Even though the gameplay changes are much appreciated, it doesn't seem they really worked on the game. Editing the values for that stuff takes a few minutes (and are probably just taken from GTR).
What about the things that take time? Hitbox? Sound? GTV? Fps cap? Netcode? Anything new about the time consuming shit demanded since day 1? Guess not. :/

The new game types and the weapon are obviously done by the third party ("first half of the patch"). Rest looks like they (id) started indeed with the "second half" after the first was done (and waited all the time). Otherwise we would see way more fixes.

well that's good, isn't it? it has already been done and tested so why should they go with other stuff just to be able to tell it's their own?
and IIRC syncerror was part of the testing of those values (at least).

but as most of you might not notice is that those changes are primarely for baseq4 which is great that the otto-normaluser won't have a shock when it comes to competitive mods and of course q4max would've never made the changes hence most players would've been stuck with the slow thingie.

(haven't played it yet tho but i'm pretty sure i'll love it)

about the other fixes the only fix required (in my point of view) is the stucking sound on galang :> of course gtv would've been nice but oh well, i think someone else will come up with it sooner or later

of course its very good. i already posted somewhere else that its great to have them as default but i just feel that they could have also done some other stuff over these months like improving the sound, netcode or feel. it still feels awful to play on 50 ms and above. even with 1.3, the latest version of GTR seems a lot smoother and i've heard that this is due to some code being cleaned up. that being said, it is a huge improvement over baseq4 1.2

i have to say that my intention isn't to simply whine about things. i've played a lot of q4 and i really think it has potential. i even preferred it to q3 for a while because of the crouchsliding and rampjumping. this patch has shown that id are open to changes so the game may really become a lot better over time. i'm just slightly disappointed that the stuff that came with this patch are things which have already been in mods for a while now (excluding the maps and the new gametype of course)

Well, we'll never know. But you can't deny the fact that everything they changed isn't time consuming coding wise. The game is still lacking of all the things that need hard work (gtv, netcode, sound system, fps cap, hitbox etc.). After month of delaying (while waiting for the "first half" to be done) and an extra month this looks to me like a very poor job.

As the guys above said, it feels like they just ripped off some easily changed stuff from the mods. That is ok, because why not pick up already tested good things? No problem with that. While saying that, what have they done all the time? That is the problem: The important things only id can do are still untouched. It doesn't look like they even tried or are gonna fix these things in the future.

What about the "big list" Syncerror asked for? Check here https://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=1158704 to see that almost nothing is done.
As you say, we have basically no idea how many hours they spent on the patch. I just do not believe they worked hard on it, hence the poor result.

Yeah, a lot is still to be done. I think the patch is really great, but then again q4 was in a poor state before. Letting others to do some parts of the mod is a time-saver, but you probably will spend 30-50% of that time setting up the deal, defining exactly what should be done, monitoring and checking that everything is up to what you expected.

id say "We've been working hard and playing harder to bring you the release of version 1.3 for Quake 4." I somehow think that its really the case. Anyway I hope that :)

Is the speed really faster than Q3? Or was Q4 so slow to begin with that it just appears that way? I loaded up a local server and the speed has definitely increased, but I don't know if it's faster than Q3. Regardless, it's really hard to make any appropriate comments without seeing an duel game.

Hats off to ID who finally let me SPECIFY my install location. The previous patches wouldn't let me install if I just copied my quake dir from one PC to another.

I hope to spec some 1.3 Q4 games at QCON, even if they aren't using it for the tourney.

well...I hate to say it but the game has been deleted from my harddrive forever.

they did improve on some things but they added even more spam into the game with the change they made to the nailgun, and adding that napalm weapon was as big a mistake as I thought it would be.

heres hoping quake 5 will be good out of the box, and I wont have to wait this long to get let down yet again...

that is if I still care about gaming by the time q5 comes out...

a little advice to anyone from id that might care:

remove the napalm weapon now...

remove the hyperblaster, remove the nailgun, replace them with the plasma gun.

and in the next quake game...dont focus as much on graphics..instead focus on gameplay. because if it aint quake gameplay, youll only go through this again...and so will we..

and for all that is the future, present, and past of gaming...DO NOT LET RAVEN MAKE QUAKE 5. or anyone else but Carmack and the id team.

Id were the ones to judge if Quake 4 is ready for market and id decided to publish it in its back then current state. Quake 4 had its focus on the singleplayer from the very beginning, and Raven did a great job with the singleplayer.

Don't blame Raven.

Yeah, Raven shits a pile of code, while admittedly producing a decent SP with it, id okeys the game, because what, they would not release an obviously profitable and better then average game just because it's poop on the inside and it's id's fault that the game is shit?

I agree, I saw these exact same posts from the Quake 2 community when Q3 was released. "No map is as good as edge blah blah"

If you remember Q2 movement it was much harder to land the mega in Edge than it was to hit the ledge rail in dm6.

Change is going to happen, deal or leave. Are improvements needed? Yes. The game is still fairly new though

Instead of whining, be constructive and get your thoughts to the devs, without the "lose the nailgun" attitude

Q3 > Q4
Obviously they should have based the game more off of q3, since it is their best game in the series. Q4 is based WAY to much on gfx and no where near enough gameplay. I mean why would you want enhanced gameplay when you can have top notch graphics??? /sarcasm
No matter how many patches they release the game will be a flop. They should have realized this when it basically killed the q3 scene and didn't even create its own at its release.

q2 was made awful by the slow rl and weaps like the mg which majorly sucked
qw is a game for cavemen
what argument would you have for q3 sucking? AWAW ITS SO CALARFUL AND I CANTS MAKE CFG OLOL. AND ITS CALARFUL
q3 has the best weapons and weapon balance, we have at least 3 or 4 *great* duel maps and a bunch of good ones, it has the best engine, sets the technical standard and is tuneable/adjustable like no other game
dont forget about osp and now cpma which are just *great* tournament mods
it has been in its current near perfect state for about.. 5? years now and how many competitions we saw in this time, and every one was just awesome
i have to admit it gets a bit boring now and probably needs new maps but it's still a way better tournament game than any of the other quake series or even any other game
there are other games that are good and very fun too, but quake and especially quake 3 just sets the standard, sorry fanboys and girls of other games, cant argue with that

at least the cavegame i'm playing has good netcode, QuakeTV and MVD demos (+more), unlike the piece of trash Quake4 never really stopped to be even with 1.3.

btw: there's only one Quake game - the rest are generic sci-fi shooters with the possible exception of Quake3 which has refferences to the original.

I tried the patch out just before, and I have to say that I'm very happy with the changes id software have made to Quake4. I found it a lot easier to gain and maintain speed than Quake3, and the rockets move at the perfect speed now :) The new napalm launcher is PHAT! it's this big fireball you lob at people and if they walk over the fire, they burn :) If you hit them directly with it they take damage over time... it's pretty slow - fires a ball of flame every 1.5 seconds or so - the distance on it is pretty huge.

The new gametype looks very intense. Basically you pick up a rune and stand in a square in the centre of the map and you get 1 point per 1 second standing in the square.. but I suggest you read the notes on id's site to get a better view of it.

ATTENTION: new r_forceAmbient command means people with older pc's can get a huge performance boost in Quake4. Try r_forceAmbient .4 or higher... the colors and textures are a bit worse but the performance boost is huge :D about 30fps increase for some people.

It�s good that ID adds the r_forceAmbient command, but even before the 1.3 PR, Q4 was well playable with an �old� pc.
I play Q4 with a P4@2.88,1 Go, Ti4600 AGP*4� and Q4 runs at 60fps constant in 1o1, and drops sometimes at 40-45 in 4v4.
If Q4 runs at 25fps with a 6800GT, tweak your config!

When playing with the patch I started thinking "when q4 is this good (ok, its crappy in still departements, but not any major (for me)) why should I play q3".
