It was fun at the beginning but few months later it was almost impossible to find servers / players to play.

Love Quake wish it had more players. Quake Champions had a rough start on launch due to engine issues that were out of the developer's control. Here's hoping another game is in the works with the newer IdTech engines which should allow more developer flexibility. Overall, great game especially since it's free.

It's a fun game with a lot of stuff from older Quake games. This game has all the movement types of the previous Quake Games. Bunny hopping from Quake, strafe jumping from Quake 2 and Quake 3 and crouch sliding from Quake 4. It has most of the old weapons except the Grenade Launcher and instead got the Tribolt. The big difference between this Quake and previous Quakes is that you have Champions. There are 16 champions, and they all have one passive and one active ability. The passive abilities could be different movement other than strafe jumping (two have bunny hopping, two have crouch sliding, everyone has strafe jumping) to regenerating some health, get extra armor at kills, having double jump and many other things.Active abilities is what you activate when you need it, like fire strike, rage and plasma trail, to mention a few. I recommend checking out the learning section in the game, or the [url=https://quakechampions.fandom.com/wiki/Quake_Champions_Wiki]Quake Champions Wiki to read things outside of the game. It's not a game for sneaking really, that won't win many matches, an no matches outside of duels. It's about map knowledge, reading your opponent, strategy, aim and movement, not about trying to spot your enemy (which is why you have a colored outline of your opponents and team mates to easily differentiate between them). If you're new to the game, you will have a very hard time vs. "everybody" else, cause most have played Quake games for many years, so even barely average players seem like they are very good at the game when you face them, which makes for a very steep learning curve, and there isn't really any training courses or anything like that. [quote=Fatal1ty]Practice, practice, practice I recommend checking [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95spyl1LRTc]rapha's movement guide to get an insight into movement. It has some issues, and not a lot of funding, and the battle passes are full of the same things except for 1-3 new weapon models each time. Hopefully the next Quake, if there is one, will take a different course and have more not so intense, or hardcore, modes to keep players playing, something more chill, while also having the "hardcore" standard Quake modes as well for those that want the old Quake type of gameplay. I recommend it cause if you do take the time to learn the game, you can have a lot of fun with gameplay there isn't much of anymore. It's not very advanced, or even varied, but fast and hard to pull off, which makes it very satisfying to play.

Quake lovers know what this. You need to be dedicated to learn the movements and also the lay of the maps to succeed.

I was happily surprised this game still has a community playing it. Quake just never gets old to me. Years later I start playing again and it feels like I never stopped. It's just a lot of fun once you learn the movement mechanics and where all the ammo and hp/ap spawns are. I highly recommend this game to anyone who wants a fast paced arena shooter
