WHAT YEAR IS IT (8 comments)
Posted by jstn @ 22:57 CDT, 13 April 2025 - iMsg
I got it in my head to play Quake again and remembered I used to bum around this place constantly back then. Last time I played was circa 2013 probably I think. What'd I miss?

Is like QL still ass but the only place anyone plays anyway? Is Q3 still 12 dudes on IRC? Does that one brain damaged english dude still rant about Q4 and militia every other day? Did cooller get conscripted to fight in Ukraine and, if so, is rapha planning a daring and romantic rescue mission? Someone fill me in here. I heard czm solved math finally.

I did hop on QL and play a few duels and I actually won all of them instead of getting stomped 20-0 so obviously someone went and fucked something up somewhere because that's never been a thing before.

Hell, even an old pair of headphones can be used as a mic - just plug them in to your mic slot and get some tape.

As always depends on the players, but I guess I would try to use it as often as possible. It's way more fun with voice-com than without!

voice com... in pretty much all new multiplayer games this feature is available. If anything, it will beneficial to gameplay. Therefore : Yes, most of the time.

I always use vent because it makes pickups bearable but I doubt this would take off, most of these people are huge nerds.

ahx is less talkative on vent, I think he's shy >:(

jo agreed, vent takes the edge of things, but rather keep some people out of it >_<

i hate voicecom in public / pickup games.

its enough that i have to deal with you morons in-game and on quakenet. I _REALLY_DO_NOT_WANT_ to hear your voices and certainly not your rage.

for me, as for many others, the pickup has become the ultimate replacement for public tp games (look at how ql is played, thats public-tp), so please lets keep it public style, lets keep it play for fun, lets keep it international, and on top of all lets keep it QUIET etc...

If you want to engage in pseudopro-behaviour, go play a pcw where ure free to use voicecom and play like its about $1m, if that is what you conceive as fun.

just my 2 cents.

disclaimer:
Since I usually do not read or post anything on esr I'll most likely not read any responses to this post ever.

I see what you're saying but absolutely nobody uses voice chat for strategical purposes, it's mostly just dicking about, maybe we'll shout the occasional "quad" but who doesn't have a quad bind anyway? (y'know, except for 90% of the community)

Voted No because I'm usually having completely unrelated conversations with non-q3 players on ventrilo while playing CPM.

Personally don't see the point of mm3 in quake pickups, not really a necessity and won't add too much.

For scrims, yes.

For pugs, binds are fine.
