The first major change comes in the form of champions, because you are not just a regular player know. You run around the map, collect ludicrous weapons and use them to blow up everyone that’s not on your team, usually with very little strategy involved in the process. To begin with, the fast-paced gameplay style is more or less untouched, so you shouldn’t have any trouble fitting in if you have any past experience with Quake or similar games. On the other hand, there are some interesting new features as well, some of which might not be as well-received as the others.

Even the game modes are basically the same, with only few minor additions in this regard. Quake Champions is basically Quake III Arena redesigned to find a place on the 2018 market, while keeping the main gameplay idea the same. Select a champion and engage in old-fashioned bloodbaths

Hence, a new entry in the highly-acclaimed series is worthy of a try, no matter what your stance on rocket launchers may be.

However, few names echo as loudly as Quake in the multiplayer shooter genre, so when id Software has something to say on the matter, gamers usually listen. Both categories of people are pretty satisfied nowadays, given the fact that there are multiple options to choose from, regardless of your preference. While some gamers might prefer their FPS games to come as close to real warfare as possible, others just want to run around with oversized weapons and dismember everything with a pulse. Do not worry as this is completely normal.Not all shooters play by the same rules, nor should they. *When first launching the PTS your game may “compile” for a few minutes. As the values can be changed | reverted, or removed at any point during the PTS update period. Lastly, the PTS is not a representation of what will hit the Live servers at any time. That said you can also demo stuff in the PTS that you may not own yet in the main game. Things that you accomplish in the PTS version DO NOT transfer over to the main game. Keep that in mind if you want to participate. The PTS download for Quake Champions is currently just over 30 Gigabytes. Just to note though like other PTS downloads you are usually downloading the entire game plus the new additions, or changes. If you want to access, or rather download the PTS you can do this on the Steam client quite easily. You can find people to party with in the “party-finder” channel. If you can you should try and find a buddy to test with. In fact all bugs, or issues in the PTS should be put in the official discord in the “public-test-server” channel.

The purpose of the PTS for us as Quake players is it allows us to preview upcoming skins, arenas, and gameplay changes in general before they are added to the Live Game servers. It is completely optional to be part of the PTS, and does require an additional download to take part of. The PTS is a Public Test Server that many games come with.
