I'm a bit disappointed with their choice of music for the trailer. Q3A was metal as shit.
The changes they made for the Steam release are pretty awful, but I'm glad Quake Live is still going.

Like what?

this is in regards to non-duel gamemodes (ffa, ctf, clan arena)
loadouts (choose 2 weapons to start off with)
auto bhop (slower than manually doing it, but still dumb regardless)
global timer of 5 seconds on all weapon respawns
in-game timer above items that says when they'll respawn
you can only host the "classic" gamemode if you're a premium member, otherwise you're either going to have to join somebody hosting a classic server or play with the new ruleset if you're not playing duel.
As a trailer for QL, it's awful.
As just a typical slow paced fragvid though, it's pretty decent. Music fits from a very subjective point of view, but definitely not for a trailer.

Ehh, the loadouts thing and ingame timer above respawns aren't terrible but they don't make much sense. The auto bhop is ridiculous, though.
The new announcer is awful, the new TDM mode is pretty nice from what I've heard.
I'm really annoyed that there's no gore in the game, that's like the best part about shooting someone with a rocket.
Also there are number pop-ups on every hit indicating the damage per-hit on an enemy, the gore looking like a fucking Christmas tree.
It's catering to the common plebeian that can't handle a fast-paced shooter from 19 fucking 99.
Eh, I'll just wait for UT4. These changes I'm hearing about don't seem good.
The music doesn't fit and I hate the announcer. I feel like if they're going to change the announcer it should be something crazy like the new Killer Instinct announcer.

Some q3 action

Dude, QL used to be a decent update og Q3, my favourite arena shooter. Sure, the "no gore" thing was dumb, but other than than that, it was the same old Q3 just with more people.
Then they fucked it up with the auto bhop and all og that shit. I'm so dissapointed.
Fuck, why can't they at least add a gore toggle option.
Q3's gore was so nice to look at and playing without it the game feels really neutered.
Also shit music choice for Q3
[QUOTE=bloboo;46000592]I've said it before I'll say it again, my dad plays Quake Live a shitload, and he's said the auto bhop doesn't even work properly for him, nor does it really pick you up much speed compared to someone strafe jumping.
Also yes he says the new announcer sucks dick. His words.[/QUOTE]
