Is Hero FPS the next meme genre?
Hopefully, because its actually good.

>old school quake players want a return to old school arena FPS
>"i know, let's make a game like overwatch and slap the quake name on it!"
this misses the mark so badly that it's actually funny. if i don't laugh, i'll cry.
>has some special abilities
>that turns into it into a "hero" now
Kek, parroting and bandwagoning has replaced any critical thinking if gamers ever had it.
>>341005070
I just wanted the Quake 1 remake, with all the lovecraftian style shit... sigh
Can someone sauce where they say it's a hero shooter.
New Quake wont have Mods.
Rip quake

>I want exactly the same rehashed shit over and over again!
Kill yourselves 45 different times.

And the most ironic part is that games like these are being mad and no one fuckin plays them.
They actually expect a AAA studio to release a game that only less than 100 people will play.
>>341007776
i expect a linear improvement of an established genre, not a completely different lateral change. you don't just throw entire genres away when you're done with them, you fuck.
>>341005070
Hero shooters will be the MOBAs of our generation.
Who Orbb here?
What special abilities will he have?
>>341007007
Never ever, anon.
I'm sorry.

DELICIOUS VASELINE
man glquake looks like ass now, what the fuck
This is a result of Quake Live not selling after they started charging for it. They used that to justify raping Quake because the only people who were even playing were the ones who already were in when it was free and they got to keep it. It's disgusting.
>>341007776
But that's what they're doing. Instead of trying to take the old with the new they're just copying the flavor of the month. Quake IS rehashed shit now.
>>341005070
Hero shit is fucking cancer
>>341008605
Any MP only Quake 3 sequel was going to be rehashed shit.
They want teh epicness old-skool because Doom was praised, but they're making the mistake of MP only.
It's either going to be like this, or be like dead horse-shit like Nexuiz or Toxikk or some trash.
What they need to do is a Quake or Quake 2/4 sequel.
Unreal Tournament was always better than Quake 3 anyway and we're getting a new UT that's the same as always. Sucks we'll never get a Quake 5 with a campaign though.

>Unreal Tournament was always better than Quake 3
I really liked the campaigns in Quake.
Now we're getting HeroQuake.
What really pisses me off though is 'Heroes with unique attributes and abilities'. Which means, if your hero sucks, you'll probably lose.
So pretty much everyone is going to pick FOTM until next balance patch, if the game even survives that long. Goddamnit.
>>341008859
This nigga knows what's up. Quake is a great Arena shooter and all but UT, oh boy, UT simply surpases anything ever made in the genre, its easily more than an simple arena shooter, even UT2004 was far ahead of its time
>>341007776
that's exactly what slapping hero shit onto an arena fps is doing
>>341009202
It's going to be the same shit as Overwatch except without any of the hype or playerbase to sustain it.
They have no self awareness. They said it themselves 'people are still playing old Quake in the thousands'.
What makes them think these players, who already ignore the current modern FPS trends, are going to play this one?
>>341006636
>User was banned by this post
>>341009320
Yeah, probably.
And then it will fail hard and Quake will be dead forever.
Aren't neckbeards always dick waving that they made a graphic overhaul mod for all these niche games? Go play that then.
I don't remember character classes ever being this obnoxious in any of the Pandemic games.
>>341009304
Game A + Game B = Game C (Quake Champions)
Game A + Game A = Game A: Rehash Shit (Your desired Quake)
Fart yourself to death
>>341009454
Nope. I wasn't :)
Sorry virgin.
>>341009520
rehashed hero shit + rehashed arena fps =/= something new fucking retard
>>341008356
He will have widowmaker's ult

pic = you
>>341009684
Visor already has it.
>>341009730
retard
>>341009775
why?
>>341009520
why is it so hard to realize that changing core gameplay mechanics isn't an improvement on a genre, it's just making it a different genre entirely?
your chart needs to be more like:
Game A + Game B = Game C (Quake Champions)
Game A + improvements on Game A = Game A 2.0 (Your desired Quake)
but no, let's simplify and reduce everything down to a retarded strawman so that you end up sounding right even though you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about.
>>341007007
Please don't tell me that they're sticking with the fucking gay ass sci-fi AYY LMAO STROGG shit
Man, precisely what made games like Quake really good was the fact that everybody was equal. No excuses, no overpowered abilities, just skill. Just being the best.
I guess thats just too much to handle for todays gamer.
The fan reception at QuakeCon is gonna be the indicator on whether or not it's gonna be shit
If they're going about this the way that I think they are, it could be cool. Basically just keep the same quake gameplay but give each character a special ability to change things up a a bit. If it's truly OW style, which I highly doubt, there's no saving it
>>341005070
Hero FPS isn't a genre.
>>341009627
Unique hybridised experience that stands above as every other alternative has been done.
>>341009813
>simplify and reduce everything down
Is what you're doing in regards to assumptions about this game.
Nice try
>>341010048
it's a pathetic cash grab and nothing more

>it's a pathetic cash grab and nothing more
so is doom 2016, still 99% of /v/ love it.
