As someone who has played ranked FPS' since... they existed (sigh), and the number of times I had a male teammate throw a tantrum and then refuse to make callouts is... Probably in the hundreds. From QTF to CS to TF2 to Apex...
During a CAL-im match, Dan? Really, Dan?
Oh yeah, even with friends. Everyone in my discord has had a good sook at the others. "I thought you were with me!" proceed to scatter like cats yet again with everyone 'leading'
Everyone is the leader, and zero people are following. Gg everyone.
we got a fossil over here
(I'm too young to have played Quake when multiplayer was a thing ;-; but I do speedrun it)
I have fond memories of playing Doom via a null modem cable
Quake Multi-player is still alive with the remasters that were released recently.
I've tried it and I had a lot of fun with it at release, but the queue times for matchmaking got unreal (pun intended) pretty quick. I mainly play Half-Life and Quake Live now but it's not quite the same
(but HL1's multiplayer is the bomb tbh, just a lot of servers are dead)
Yep, I have very fond memories of HL1 multiplayer, also there were SO many HL1 mods that were just incredibly fun.
