When you midair someone with a rocket while bunnyhopping at max speed, your brain struggles to grasp how your hands achieved it, and you feel like there's some preternatural power within you. But like the Quakes of old, this is a rare FPS where ordinary actions-hitting a railgun shot timing the mega-health correctly winning a lightning gun duel-feel extraordinary. The netcode isn't exactly where it needs to be, matchmaking is opaque, the runes system is clunky, and its menus are a little frustrating to navigate.

It made for some good spectating at the Quake World Championship at QuakeCon, just two days after the game's launch.Ĭhampions certainly has its issues. The Ranger can hurl an orb across the map at low speed, and telefrag. A Sorlag player dueling against a Nyx has its own dynamic: Nyx is much more fragile, but she can negate Sorlag's acid spit with her temporary invisibility and invulnerability. So, The game can pull decent numbers under the right circumstances.And at the highest level of play, the Champions introduced the concept of drafting to Quake. At least this time id software is in a much better place in their time line then they were 10 years ago.Įdit#1 looking at the twitch stats now on steamdb it looks like the DR actually was close to 50,000 not 20,000 viewers. I feel their is a market that Quake can fill successfully, but we have to wait for Microsoft to reorganize Bethesda/Zenimax. Most of them would trash the game in a day and never look back. Imagine all those streamers from the RUST servers coming to Quake. Quake is absolutely brutal to new players. So, they have to actually practice to achieve victory where in PUBG, CSGO, valorant their shooting skills actually carry over well game to game.

Probably the biggest problem with Quake is there are no current fast paced games like them that the large majority of streamers play. Obviously known of those amounted to much in our community. I think Summit may have been another streamer they had for a sponsored stream. Some other people have mentioned shroud and lirik, but all of them got trashed apparently. The game has changed significantly since his last stream though. But he never continued to play it to my knowledge except for these sponsored occasions. I know for sure Bethesda has had Dr.disrespect play on 3 separate occasions possibly more, and he pulled close to 20,000 on twitch with that. There are a few devs that roam this reddit.
