bet you both played the mod.

Looks interesting. Quad limiting seems like a good thing. Not so sure about the headshots or the offhand grapple but I guess we'll see after a few games.

Have you tried to get the files hosted by planetquake3.net? Crappy filefront.com is serving out your 300+ MB mod at the blazing speed of 35 KB/s.

Obviously you didnt play much Threewave 1.7
It was a travesty.

Why? Because there's less spam with the ammo limits?

On second thought, I have to retract this. The runes they used in Team Arena were well-balanced and worked great with the gameplay, so not all runes are bad. I just haven't liked any of the other runes I've used in CTF.

*trys to remember what he did*

Is that the no-quad-spawn if teams are less than 4v4?

Also, Capturestrike in 1.7 introduced an overtime bug which was a showstopper, but they disappeared after release and did not fix it.

Not that we have a ctfs mode anyways, but regardless CCTF was driven straight into the ground by bad gameplay decisions.

A good chunk of the 3W CCTF/CTFS community went back to playing 1.6 if thats any clue.

Regardless, the only way we'd be on any level of competition with Threewave is with CCTF, but that isnt necessarily the case as they are onhand grapple and we are offhand.

you could turn all that crap off yknow, and play it oldksool style

This is for Quake World, right?

This looks quite bad, even for Quake 3. That base model has some horrid UV's

Plus that flags a bit... Erm.. You know

Here is one i made a year or so ago. Its not complete, but it really grabs what I like about CTF flags (nice and torn, dirty)

Post by **Foo** » Thu Oct 13, 2005 9:25 pm

Looks alright to me. Clean and fast, focused on gameplay.

Post by **brisk** » Thu Oct 13, 2005 9:27 pm

fuck how they look. its how they play that matters.

I could take pics on a voodoo 1 and it would look better. Because i know what a UV map is and how it works.

Because you're a big blubbering vagina.

"Feel the Base" is a fantastic small CTF map...clean looking as the gameplay gods intended.

Post by **duffman91** » Thu Oct 13, 2005 10:41 pm

We ought to schedule a site wide match. Would be fun to play like the old times.

Post by **^misantropia^** » Fri Oct 14, 2005 6:09 am

It's fast. Played a few games against bots yesternight (no servers online, unfortunately) and was positively surprised by the speed of the game. Will try to organize a game against humans tonight. PS: riddla, what's the bind for the grapple?
