no Quake = FAIL

Why that link to Rakaka World?

It's where I got the article from, and the new Rakaka World just came out, helps that more people know :)

You really call that an article? That's almost a plain c/p from the original announcement.

If you wanna let people know that Rakaka World just came out, you might as well just make a news about. So far it's only been a c/p news hub, kinda boring.

you're making a big deal out of nothing tbh

Lot's of typos here. For instance they must have meant "decreasingly active community", and they misspelled Quake as Women. Bad PR from these guys.

no quake no care

ESWC today released the first three official games for their tournament this autumn.

three games? i see only one here

More games, both individual and team-based, will be announced "soon".

so lets wait and see

starcraft 2 & HoN

OK, game(s) for kids selected...

Well, by that logic, with all the manchildren on this board who still lives in their parents' basements, wouldn't that be contradictory to QL not being picked?

november or december eh? Someone better make sure they dont overlap Dreamhack Winter. That would be one baguette of a fail!

In sports, there is a distinct advantage in genetics between the male and female gender, thus they are grouped in seperate tournaments. In esports, it makes little sense to group genders seperately.

how about in pool, chess, shooting, and even darts.

it's just a measure to promote the sport among women since they have no chance against their male counterparts. Can't be other explanation in those cases.
edit: maybe if more women start playing then it can get more even. In cs there's one girl every 100 males so there's a lot less chance of finding a great female player.

This actually makes sense. All about percentages.

why do we get a fcking useless news for a fcking useless event without any quake ?

gillz pls stop this we dont care about an event without quake....

Well, at least it's the shittiest Quake game in the series that gets denied an ESWC tourney if anything.

hardly.

It's slow, doesn't work, has shitty maps, and is full of tards. If, by hardly, you mean hardly worth playing, then yes, you're right.

It's not slow, has decent NEW maps that people are almost forced to play (better that way), only CA and FFA is full of tards, but i guess thats where you must play?

>QL
>not slow

>duels with less than 10 frags total in 10 mins are commonplace when 30-40 frags in 15 mins used to be the standard for most players.
>many of the "best" CTF games in QL's history had only 3 or less caps total -- in some cases, a fucking 1-0 game.
>Hub redesigned to encourage more camping with a second GA, CPM ramp for RA
>Phrantic in QL takes the general layout of the Q4 version and cramps it for what is an even slower pace than back in Q4 1.2, as this layout encourages camping and spam even more than the Q4 version ever did
>rockets are faster, meaning it's easier to fall back while firing rockets because of the shorter pocket of time needed to shoot ahead of time to be effective. Naturally, if you have to think less ahead of time, you're usually going to be more accurate without having to improve on your "spatial reads," or so I would call them. Takes the skill away from prefiring rockets, really and makes RL all hurrrrdurrrrspam
>rails are nerfed in damage rather than simply lowered in starting ammo and ammo pack quantities like what they did with Q4, meaning it's now much easier to peek corners and exchange rails without dying than with the +20dmg (or even +10dmg with less ammo), and hence, +back/rail and camping are further encouraged

Have I mentioned how long it's taken for id to come out with just one completely new map for this game that doesn't suck? Longer than it ever took for them to release Q4's bonus maps, that's for sure. That's pretty fucking slow.

tl;dr - "Hurrr durrr, I'm a QL nuthugger who's never played a real Quake shooter before. Hurrr."

I've tested q3 and q4 and i've played ql for 1 year and 3 months, I never said CTF was better in QL then in Q3, no-one cares about phrantic, concrete palace and hektik are examples are good new maps, the game is most balanced it has been, lots say it and i believe, i think ql is in good shape atm.

Yes. QL is in good shape to be able to substitute my serotonin pills that are sitting on the nightstand, if you know what I mean.

tl;dr - zZz...

no quake no cake

the cake is a lie

whats is the damn point of counterstrike 1.6: women and CS:S, just keep one category of cs1.6. morons.

no quake = boring
